Abstract
Background
GRAPEVINE TRUNK DISEASES reduce vineyard productivity and longevity. Economic costs associated with these diseases result from a combination of factors, chiefly yield loss and an increase in production costs (reworking and retraining of grapevines). While difficult to quantify, in California alone grapevine trunk diseases are estimated to cost the industry $260 million per annum
