Foliar symptoms typically begin appearing in mid-summer as irregular blotches on leaf blades at the base of infected grapevines. Over time, the blotches spread upward from the base to the top of the grapevine canopy. [9] [10] In red grape varieties, the blotches are red; in white grape varieties, the blotches may be pale green to pale yellow. [2]
Phomopsis cane and leaf spot is a disease that causes symptoms in the common grapevine species, Vitis vinifera, in many regions of the world. [2] This disease is mainly caused by the fungal pathogen, Phomopsis viticola, and is known to affect many cultivars of table grapes, such as Thompson Seedless, Red Globe, and Flame Seedless. [3]
Symptoms of GPGV include chlorotic mottling of the leaves, leaf deformation, stunted growth, low quality fruit, abnormal branching, and reduced yield. [8] The most common symptoms are the mottling and deformation of the leaves. [9] Other symptoms that have been noted are bud bursting delays, shortened internodes, and more acidic berries.

The disease cycle begins with the overwintering structures. The grape black rot pathogen overwinters in many parts of the grape vine, especially mummies and lesions, and is able to overwinter on the vineyard floor. [3] In fact, "Viable lesions capable of producing conidia can persist in wood for at least 2 years."
Grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV), the cause of fanleaf degradation, is the most destructive viral disease of grapes worldwide. Xiphinema index was discovered to be a vector of this disease in the 1950s. It causes yellow mosaic and bands on the leaves, and may result in an 80% reduction in fruit set, causing huge economic losses.
Grapevine Trunk Disease s are common in California. [30] They are not caused by any one pathogen but are united by their similar symptomology in this part of the grape plant. [30] Botryosphaeria Grape Trunk Dieback diseases are common trunk diseases. [31]
Those symptoms are related to callose deposition at the sieve plates and subsequent degeneration of the phloem. Although no resistant cultivars of Vitis vinifera or rootstocks are known so far, the various grape varieties differ considerably as far as symptom severity is concerned. Chardonnay and Riesling are among the most vulnerable varieties.
