Hommay, G., Wiss, L., Chadoeuf, J., & Le Maguet, J. 2018 Gone with the wind: Aerial dispersal of Parthenolecanium corni crawlers in a newly planted grapevine plot. Annals of Applied Biology 174: 372–387.

Keywords:

  • GLRV
  • dispersal
  • Notes: Soft scales nymphs are suspected to propagate grapevine leafroll viruses in the vineyard, while moving from vine to vine, but results of long distance dispersion, especially those due to wind, are poorly known. Thus, a net of sticky cylindrical traps was placed in a newly planted grapevine plot to evaluate aerial dispersal of Parthenolecanium corni nymphs.
