Grapevine Disease Testing

If you have budwood you want to propagate, or, if you have a production problem in your vineyard, and it is related to the presence of one of the commonly-encountered viral, fungal, or bacterial plant pathogens of Vitis spp., there is a high probability of detection given the proper sample at the right time of the year. Agri-Analysis provides assays to detect the following grapevine pathogens:

• Grapevine leafroll-associated virus type 1 (GLRaV-1)
• Grapevine leafroll-associated virus type 2 (GLRaV-2)
• Grapevine leafroll-associated virus type 3 (GLRaV-3)
• Grapevine leafroll-associated virus type 4 & 5 (GLRaV-4&5)
• Grapevine leafroll-associated virus type 7 (GLRaV-7)
• Grapevine leafroll-associated virus type 9 (GLRaV-9)
• Grapevine fleck virus (GFkV)
• Grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV)
• Grapevine virus A (GVA)
• Grapevine virus B (GVB)
• Grapevine virus D (GVD)
• Rupestris stem-pitting associated virus (RSPaV)
• Grapevine rootstock stem lesion associated virus (GRSLaV, Red Globe virus)
• Tomato ring spot virus (grapevine yellow vein disease)
• Xylella fastidiosa (Pierce's Disease)
• Vine Decline fungi (Esca, Petri disease):
  Phaeoacremonium spp.
  Phaeomoniella chlamydospora
• Phytophthora spp.
• Cylindrocarpon spp.
• Armillaria mellea (Oak root fungus)
• Eutypa spp.
