Grapevine yellow speckle viroid 1 (GYSVd1), which is a member of the genus Apscaviroid, causes yellow speckle disease in grapevines. Here, we report the complete de novo genome assembly of GYSVd1 from the grapevine transcriptome and identified 10 single nucleotide polymorphisms of GYSVd1 across the grapevine populations.

Grapevine leafroll disease (GLD) is considered to be one of the most economically destructive viral diseases of grapevines worldwide, resulting in reduced vine vigor, yield reductions, and poor fruit quality. Five pathogens (grapevine leafroll-associated viruses) are recognized as causal agents of this disease, of which Grapevine leafroll-associated virus 3 (GLRaV-3) is the most common. Althoug...

Biodiversity-friendly farming practices are taking centre stage, with herbicide use sparking major public debate on human health. Vegetation cover is increasingly used to enhance agroecosystem biodiversity and functions, providing important ecosystem services like biological pest control. However, further information required the relationship between vegetation cover, natural enemies, predation...

A novel virus-like sequence from grapevine was identified by Illumina sequencing. The complete genome is 7,551 nucleotides in length, with polyadenylation at the 3' end. Translation of the sequence revealed five open reading frames (ORFs). The genomic organization was most similar to those of vitiviruses. The polymerase (ORF1) and coat protein (ORF4) genes shared 31 to 49% nucleotide and 40 to ...

Background and Aims. Grapevine is susceptible to several diseases requires a large use of fungicides. Sustainable alternatives must be safe for humans the environment also should not interfere with fermentation. The aim this study was implement rare sugar, tagatose, against powdery mildew downy assess possible side effects on Saccharomyces cerevisiae Methods Results. Tagatose evaluated suppress...
