New Advances in Grapevine Trunk Diseases

Dear Colleagues,

Grapevine trunk diseases (GTDs) are widespread across the world, with a high impact on vineyards. The percentage of plant or grape loss is high; for example, in France, 13% of vineyards are unproductive.

Even if the pathogens involved in GTDs are known, their role in the disease process is still under investigation, and other factors, biotic or abiotic, may be involved.

For this Special Issue, “New Advances in Grapevine Trunk Diseases”, we welcome articles and reviews containing new research on GTDs, either (i) using new techniques or products against pathogens, such as biocontrol agents, or (ii) applying new methods for a better understanding of plant physiology.
