Most important North American Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis berlandieri and
grape species Vitis rupestris
Four main sections of a grape vine the main shoots, one-year-old wood, permanent
wood and the roots
What comprises the canopy of a The main shoots and all of their major structures -
vine? stem, buds, leaves, lateral shoots, tendrils and
inflorescences/grape bunches
What do the main shoots grow The main shoots on the vine grow in spring from
from, and when? buds retained from the previous year
Where are carbohydrates stored in Stems, trunks, roots

and break open the following growing season,
producing main shoots; typically a primary,

season, form lateral shoots)
What is the main function of lateral - to allow the plant to carry on growing if the tip
shoots? When are they of the main shoot has been damaged or eaten
desirable/undesirable? - can provide an additional source of leaves for
photosynthesis (useful if the laterals are near the
ends of the main shoots)
What is second crop? Lateral shoots often produce inflorescences,
which can be known as a 'second crop'
- Growth of laterals nearer the base of the main
shoot can be undesirable as they impede air flow
and can shade the fruit too much
What is green harvesting? Removal of second crop during summer
Define one-year-old wood the main shoots from the last growing season
that were kept at pruning, supports compound
