Conclusion
qPCR as the alternative method for quantifying A. vitis S4 in grapevine
plantlets thanks to its accuracy, rapidity, flexibility, sensitivity and specificity over plate counting assay.
• Crown gall: important disease of grapevine
worldwide, causing yield decrease and even plant death (Burr et al. 1998; Schroth et al. 1988)
• Causal agent: Allorhizobium vitis (previously named Agrobacterium vitis, Mousavi et al. 2014 )
• Risk of spreading and persisting in vineyard
(Kuzmanović et al. 2018) need of detection of pathogen
• Study the interaction host-pathogen need of quantification of bacterial population
