摘要

Background and aims

Phosphorus (P)-efficiency mechanisms in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) under vineyard conditions, particularly at the rhizosphere level, remain poorly explored. The objective of this study was to investigate seasonal dynamics of P-acquisition and -utilization efficiency in grafted grapevines grown under low-P soil conditions.

Methods

A three-year field experiment was conducted using V. vinifera cultivar Chardonnay grafted onto Kober 5BB rootstock (V. berlandieri × V. riparia) in a vineyard equipped with rhizotrons that allowed direct access to both intact roots and rhizosheath soil. Treatments included unfertilized and P-fertilized vines. We analysed leaf P concentration, rhizosheath soil P fractions, root-exuded carboxylates (malates and citrates), and the expression of inorganic phosphate transporter 1 (PHT1) genes in roots and leaves across three key growth stages.

Results

The most intensive root exudation of citrate and malate occurred after flowering, during the pea-sized berries stage, and was followed by the highest mobilisation of both labile (H₂O- and NaHCO₃-extractable) and sparingly-labile (NaOH-extractable) rhizosheath soil P fractions. High root expression of VvPHT1;1 (early response) and VvPHT1;4 (late response) enabled prolonged P uptake from flowering to veraison, both critical periods of high P demand. The scion also exhibited efficient P utilisation, with up-regulation of leaf VvPHT1;1 during flowering, maintaining leaf P concentrations similar to that of P-fertilised vines.

Conclusions

Chardonnay grafted onto Kober 5BB rootstock exhibits high P efficiency under low-P soil conditions. Seasonal coordination of rhizosphere P mobilisation and P uptake and allocation via PHT1 transporters effectively sustained the P demand of unfertilised grapevine plants.
