There's a serious threat to your vineyard out there. GTD can infect vines directly after pruning!
Many challenges keep wine growers awake at night, but long-term none is more threatening and difficult to resolve than Grapevine Trunk Diseases (GTDs). The spores released by GTD pathogens infect fresh pruning wounds. It is a problem that can drastically damage the whole vineyard and cause unpredictably high additional costs and financial losses. Therefore, it is important to protect the wounds as soon as possible after pruning with Tessior® System.
Grape Trunk Diseases can have unpredictable and devastating effects in the vineyard …
Symptoms of Grape Trunk Diseases appear on leaves and berries, far away from where the pathogens live:
They are caused by toxins of GTD-fungi, which are growing in the grape trunk.
"Tiger-Stripe" leaves are typical symptoms of GTDs. Those leaves loose quickly the ability to feed the plant.
"Black measles" on grape berries may occur together with "Tiger-Stripe" leaves or alone.
Individual branches or the whole plant die back during few days. This dramatic development of symptoms leads mostly to the complete dead of the grape plant.
