Risc assessment for scale insects in German vineyards with regard to leafroll virus epidemiology

Project


Project code: JKI-OW-08-1195
Contract period: 01.09.2016 - 31.08.2019
Purpose of research: Applied research

The project aims to check the role of scale insects (Homoptera: Coccina) in German vineyards as potential vectors of leafroll viruses. Leafroll disease might be an upcoming problem in this region. The investigations should built a base for a renewed risk assessment and if necessary for newly integrated control strategies towards the vector.
