Changes in the level of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) is a good indicator to monitor fluctuations in cellular metabolism and in the stress responses. In this study, the changes in H₂O₂ content during bud endodormancy (ED) and budbreak were analysed in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.). The results showed a gradual increase in the H₂O₂ content during the development of bud ED, which was mainly due to an increase in the activity of peroxidases (PODs). The maximum H₂O₂ content reached in the grapevine buds coincided with the maximum depth of bud ED. In contrast, during budbreak, the H₂O₂ content decreased. As the plant hormones cytokinin (CK) and auxin play an important role in budbreak and growth resumption in grapevine, the effect of exogenous applications of H₂O₂ on the expression of genes involved in CK and auxin metabolism was analysed. The results showed that H₂O₂ represses the expression of the CK biosynthesis genes VvIPT3a and VvLOG1 and induces the expression of the CK-inactivating gene VvCKX3, thus reducing potentially the CK content in the grapevine bud. On the other hand, H₂O₂ induced the expression of the auxin biosynthesis genes VvAMI1 and VvYUC3 and of the auxin transporter gene VvPIN3, thus increasing potentially the auxin content and auxin transport in grapevine buds. In general, the results suggest that H₂O₂ in grapevine buds is associated with the depth of ED and negatively regulates its budbreak.
