Investigation into the Occurrence of Esca-Associated Fungi in Cuttings and Bench-Grafted Vines

Investigation into the Occurrence of Esca-Associated Fungi in Cuttings and Bench-Grafted Vines

Rootstocks, scions, certified virus-free grafted plants and 1-year old plants were studied to determine the incidence of wood discoloration and the occurrence of fungi associated with esca. On cuttings very little discoloration was observed and fungal infection was negligible. The majority of grafts...
