Grapevine Virus Testing
Protect your vineyard with comprehensive virus screening and virus-free certification support
Why Test Grapevines?
Grapevine viruses can reduce yield by up to 70%, delay fruit ripening, and compromise wine quality. Many viruses remain asymptomatic for years, spreading silently through your vineyard before devastating symptoms appear.
For vineyard owners, nurseries, and exporters, virus testing is critical for:
- Virus-free certification and regulatory compliance
- Maintaining clean propagation stock
- Early detection before yield losses occur
- Meeting industry quality standards
Grapevine Virus Panel
Impact: Delayed ripening, reduced sugar content, yield losses up to 70%
Impact: Stunted growth, leaf deformation, 'fanleaf' symptoms, severe yield reduction
Impact: Often asymptomatic, may impact graft compatibility
Impact: Stem pitting, reduced vigor, graft incompatibility
Impact: Stunted growth, leaf yellowing, reduced yield
Impact: Corky bark disease, reduced vigor, decline
Comprehensive Testing: Our standard panel includes the most economically important grapevine viruses. Custom panels available for specialized needs or research projects.
