“…Several in vitro biological methods have been described for indexing of GLRaV‐3 (Tanne et al 1996, Pathirana and McKenzie 2005a,b, Constable et al 2013, Cui et al 2015, 2017, 2019, Hao et al 2017). Compared with field studies (Cirami et al 1988, Walter et al 1990, Pathirana and McKenzie 2005a, Constable et al 2013), in vitro culture can avoid the interference of environmental factors, such as temperature, light and nutrition, and other pathogens, thus ensuring reliability of the results, in addition to its time efficiency (Tanne et al 1993, 1996, Pathirana and McKenzie 2005b, Cui et al 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019, Hao et al 2017). Grapevine plants infected with GLRD express symptoms earlier, and the symptoms are intensified in vineyards under drought stress in the autumn (Tanne et al 1996, Maree et al 2013).…”
