Common crops affected
How to identify it
- Root-tip stunting and reduced fine roots on grape
- Where X. index and GFLV occur: mottling, deformed leaves, poor set
- Damaging on grapes around 15–25+ per sample in mature vines
Recommended Vegalab solution: Nematode Control
Soil-directed Nematode Control to reduce dagger populations; where GFLV is present, combine with virus-tested stock and rogueing.
Results you can mention: tracked and declining across successive samplings under Nematode Control programs in grape trials.
| Role | Product | Use |
|---|---|---|
| Primary control | Nematode Control | Soil-applied natural nematicide (drench, drip or in-furrow) |
| Root recovery | Root Boost | Rebuild damaged roots |
| Soil biology | Charge Bioboost | Suppressive soil biology |
