This is a list of diseases of grapes (Vitis spp.). Bacterial diseases. Glassy-winged sharpshooter, the primary carrier of PD. Bacterial diseases;
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]
Allorhizobium vitis is a plant pathogen that infects grapevines.The species is best known for causing a tumor known as crown gall disease. [5] One of the virulent strains, A. vitis S4, is responsible both for crown gall on grapevines and for inducing a hypersensitive response in other plant species. [6]
Cultural practices and fungicide use are two methods that grape growers use to reduce P. tetraspora.Removing leaf litter, increasing air circulation over the soil surface and canopy space, and removal of susceptible hosts from the immediate environment are some cultural practices that can help control P. tetraspora development.
This disease causes the formation of lesions on shoots, leaves, and rachises, but also can cause fruit rot. It causes significant economic damage to grape vines. Another Phomopsis species, P. juniperovora , infects junipers, and is a particularly important pest of seedlings and juvenile plants in the nursery industry.
The incubation period between infection and obvious symptoms is usually one year or more, depending on the response of the plant to both pathogen and environmental circumstances. [1] Flavescence dorée has the following symptoms: [1] leaves become yellow or red, depending on the variety; downward rolling of leaves; drying of stems and grapes
The disease development of grape downy mildew is known to be heavily reliant on the efficiency of the asexual propagation cycles. Kiefer et al. (2002) demonstrated that the early development of Plasmopara viticola is regulated specifically and coordinately by unknown factors originating from the host grapevine plant Vitis vinifera . [ 13 ]
The disease affects grapes worldwide, leaving all agricultural grape businesses at risk of Uncinula necator. Powdery mildew of grape affects the size of the vines, the total yield of fruit, as well as affecting the taste of wine produced from infected grapes. The disease can also cause the blossoms to fall and result in failure to produce fruit ...
