Global strategy for control of Grapevine Trunk Diseases

Grapevine trunk disease management: trunk renewal, re-grafting, and integrated control strategies

or

Detail description

Grapevine trunk diseases—Esca, Botryosphaeria dieback, and Eutypa dieback—require targeted management. Key strategies include trunk renewal, re-grafting, trunk cleaning, chemical treatments with fungicides like tebuconazole, and experimental methods such as copper nanoparticles and H2O2 injections. Trunk renewal and re-grafting show high recovery rates (80–90%) when applied correctly. Standardised protocols like 'Timely Trunk Renewal' support effective implementation. Costs vary from €225–275/ha for renewal to €12,000/ha for full re-grafting. Research by Calzarno et al. (2004) and Smart (2015), along with contributions from BNIC, INRA, and Chambres d’agriculture, inform current practices. Scientific validation of emerging treatments remains limited.
