Résumé

Les spores alpha dePhomopsis viticola, agent de l'excoriose de la vigne, ne germent plus si leur concentration est supérieure à 5×105 spores/ml. Il s'agit d'un phénomène d'auto-inhibition. Des extractions, purifications et analyses du spectre de masse ont, montré que l'auto-inhibiteur était du soufre moléculaire (S8). Les recherches ne permettent pas de savoir si ce soufre libre est présent dans les spores ou dans la gelée sporifère.
