Species, cultivars, and clones
• California’s wine industry based on a single species of grape, Vitis vinifera L.
• Most wines made from traditional (old) cultivated varieties of V. vinifera
• Old cultivars have accumulated many ‘clones’ due to mistaken identity, mutation, or both
• Variation among clones may be exploited to improve grapevine yield and quality

What is a grapevine clone?
• A population of vines propagated
asexually (e.g., by cuttings) from a single
mother vine.
• Virtually all propagated grapevines are
technically ‘clones’
• Of particular interest are clones or
‘selections’ having distinctive, beneficial,
characteristics

How to make a grapevine clone
![Page 6: Winegrape cultivar and clone selection for warm climates](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052311/55942fa31a28ab2e3d8b46be/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

How can clonal selection
research benefit growers?• Nurseries offer many different clones of a
given cultivar
• These may differ dramatically with respect to
yield, yield components, fruit composition,
and susceptibility to pests and diseases
• The performance of a given clone can
depend on the climatic region where it is
grown
![Page 8: Winegrape cultivar and clone selection for warm climates](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052311/55942fa31a28ab2e3d8b46be/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Materials and methods
• Chardonnay, Merlot, and Zinfandel/Primitivo vines planted in 1997
• Bilateral cordons, two-wire trellis, spur pruned
• Vine x row spacing = 7.5’ x 10’
• Ten single-vine replicates
• Randomized complete block design
• Within a year, all clones harvested on the same day
![Page 9: Winegrape cultivar and clone selection for warm climates](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052311/55942fa31a28ab2e3d8b46be/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Chardonnay characteristics
• Most widely cultivated wine grape in CA
• > 70 different registered clones in CA
• Clone 4, industry standard
• High yields, good fruit composition
• 4 has large, heavy clusters—susceptible
to sour rot

Chardonnay clones summary
• Clone 4 had good yields, large clusters,
and good fruit composition but was very
susceptible to sour rot
• Clone 15 had 10% lower yields than 4, but
had much less sour rot than 4

Central Valley
• Clone 3 is standard; consistent set, yield,
fruit composition
• Relative performance compared to other
clones in the valley has not been tested

Merlot clones summary
• Selection 10 performed best; consistently
higher yields of fruit with low pH and high
TA
• Selection 11 was undesirable; the largest
berries, was the most susceptible to rot,
and had high pH
• Selection 3 performed similar to selections
1 and 9 and was not superior to 10
![Page 22: Winegrape cultivar and clone selection for warm climates](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052311/55942fa31a28ab2e3d8b46be/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
‘Crljenak kastelanski’
• “The red grape of Kastela”
• Zinfandel and Primitivo are probably
selections of the “Red grape”
• Origin of Zinfandel is obscure, 1850s?
• Primitivo means “early” in Italian
• Primitivo has been grown in Italy for about
200 years
![Page 23: Winegrape cultivar and clone selection for warm climates](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052311/55942fa31a28ab2e3d8b46be/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Zinfandel characteristics
• Big berries, large clusters, high
fruitfulness, high yields
• Very susceptible to “sour rot” in warm
climates
• Uneven ripening
• Yield declines as the season progresses
• Color can be poor, especially in warm
climates

Zinfandel clones summary
• Few differences between the Zinfandel
selections tested
• Primitivo selections generally were better
• Earlier maturing
• Similar or higher yield
• Similar or less sour rot
