Using proteomics to develop novel diagnostic tools for the detection of an important grapevine pathogen

Abstract (German)

Grapevine Red Blotch-associated Virus (GRBaV) is an emerging grapevine virus causing a non-curable and spreading disease. Due to its wide occurrence, transmissibility, and impacts on grape quality this virus has the potential to cause serious economic losses. Up to now no serological reagent is available to detect the pathogen. We propose an alternative approach to develop a diagnostic product that would place BIOREBA as the only company worldwide offering such a test.
