CohortFifty-three isolates of P. chlamydospora and four isolates of Pm. aleophilum were used in this study. For genomic DNA (gDNA) extraction, a spore suspension from each isolate was streaked onto PDA and incubated 4–7 d at 22 C in alternating 12 h light and dark conditions.

Disease Introduction MechanismEsca and esca-like syndromes are devastating diseases of mature vines in Europe and North America. The etiology of esca is not understood completely, but it appears to be a complex disease involving the succession of different fungi that culminate in an extensive white rot of the vine trunk (Mugnai 1999). Several fungi are associated with esca-affected grapevines, including Phaeomoniella chlamydospora, Phaeoacremonium aleophilum, to a lesser extent Pm. inflatipes. All species are isolated with a high frequen- cy from discolored woody tissue of esca-affected vines, especially from brown or black longitudinal streaks, where marked gummosis of the xylem elements also occurs.
