Effect of scale insects on grape cultivars cv. Chardonnay and cv. Sauvignon Blanc

In the greenhouse, rootlings of grapevine cultivars were raised and subjected to infestation with scale insects. The plants were followed over time from December 2017-April 2018, with plant dry mass of roots and shoots measured at harvest in April 2018. Leaves further than 35 cm from location of scale insect infestation were removed, frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80˚C. After all plants were harvested, the frozen leaves were freeze-dried, and volatile compounds measured using headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) to measure volatile compounds in the leaves. The data from the chemical analysis was compared with scale infestation and growth parameters of the grapevine cultivars

Significance Statement
Demonstration that scale insect feeding can affect growth of grapevine cultivars
Brief Description
Scale insects on cv Sauvignon Blanc appear to cause an increase in plant growth that was absent in control plants and in cv. Chardonnay. Changes in the salicylic acid pathways may be involved.
