Grapevine Diseases Testing
STANDARD VINEGUARD PANEL
The Standard Panel is used to detect the most significant and most commonly encountered economically important viral and bacterial pathogens affecting grapevine production. The panel's assays detect:
1. Grapevine leafroll-associated virus types 1, GLRaV-1
2. Grapevine leafroll-associated virus types 2, GLRaV-2
3. Grapevine leafroll-associated virus types 3, GLRaV-3
4. Grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV)
5. Grapevine virus B (GVB, corky bark associated virus)
6. Pierce's Disease (Xylella fastidiosa)
EXTENSIVE VINEGUARD PANEL
When the occasion arises that detection of additional viral pathogens is desired beyond those in the Standard Combo panel, we offer assays for these viruses as individual tests, or you may order a panel of all of them. The Extensive Vineguard Panel includes 14 viruses and one bacterium listed below:
1. Grapevine leafroll-associated virus types 1, GLRaV-1
2. Grapevine leafroll-associated virus types 2, GLRaV-2
3. Grapevine leafroll-associated virus types 3, GLRaV-3
4. Grapevine leafroll-associated virus types 4, GLRaV-4
5. Grapevine leafroll-associated virus types 5, GLRaV-5
6. Grapevine leafroll-associated virus types 7, GLRaV-7
7. Grapevine leafroll-associated virus types 9, GLRaV-9
8. Grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV)
9. Grapevine virus B (GVB, corky bark associated virus)
10. Pierce's Disease (Xylella fastidiosa)
11. Grapevine fleck virus (GFkV)
12. Grapevine virus A (GVA)
13. Grapevine virus D (GVD)
14. Rupestris stem-pitting associated virus (RSPaV)
15. Grapevine rootstock stem lesion associated virus (GRSLaV, Red Globe virus)
Vineguard Fungi Panel for Young Vine Decline (Petri Diseases, ESCA):
1. Phaeoacremonium aleophilum and other Phaeoacremonium spp.
2. Phaeomoniella chlamydospora
3. Cylindrocarpon spp.
Other Vineguard Assays for Detecting:
1. Tomato ring spot virus (ToRSV, grapevine yellow vein disease)
2. Phytophthora spp.
3. Cylindrocarpon spp.
4. Armillaria mellea (Oak root fungus)
5. Eutypa spp.
6. Botryosphaeria spp. (Bot canker)
7. Phomopsis viticola
8. Agrobacterium vitis (NEW since 2008: detection of tumorigenic strains of A.vitis)
9. Phytoplasmas
