Grapevine Virus Testing Service since 1981
FALL GRAPEVINE VIRUS TESTING IN SEASON!
Fall Grapevine Virus Testing is in Season!
Fall is the best time to test for grapevine leafroll-associated viruses and other grapevine viruses. Agri-Analysis uses the state-of-the-art technologies such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and the enzyme-linked immunoasorbent assay (ELISA) for the accurate detection of all grapevine viruses. Our Standard Vineguard Panel of assays detects the most significant and most commonly encountered viral and bacterial pathogens affecting grapevine production as listed below. Call us today for your virus testing needs.
VINEYARD VIRUS SURVEY PAYS! Grapevine viruses are field-transmitted by pests from infected vines to healthy vines such as glassy-winged sharpshooters, nematodes, mealy bugs. Due to the wide presence of these pests in California vineyards, certified nursery stocks may not guarantee virus-free vineyards. Therefore, it is crucial for growers and management companies to regularly and consistently screen and survey their vineyards for the presence of common grapevine viruses to determine the extent of their spread and the health status of their vines. Agri-Analysis is proud to offer the "Vineyard Virus Survey Pays" program. Our scientists would work with your viticulturists and management team to develop a survey plan that inludes site selection, sampling density, time interval, data analysis, reporting method, information management, and survey costs. Our Extensive Vineguard Panel includes eighteen (18) grapevine viruses and other pathogens listed below. Please call us today for more information of our Vineyard Virus Survey Program.
