2 Grapevine capabilities Diseased vines reduce: Grape quality Yield Ultimately disease affects wine quality EAS Group has conducted many studies on grapevines including: Field Residue Efficacy Dislodgeable Foliar Residue Soil Dissipation Radio-labelled Metabolism Worker Exposure Resistance Testing (using leaf disc method) 7/14/2010 Eurofins Agroscience Services Group Presentation 2

3 Grapevine capabilities Eurofins Agroscience Services, together with Eurofins STA, can offer a full portfolio of services on Vines for Grapevine diseases: Virus diseases such as Leaf roll, Rugose Wood, Decline/Fanleaf Bacterial diseases such as Crown gall and Pierces disease Fungal diseases such as Black foot, Petri, Cankers These studies are available across Europe and North America 7/14/2010 Eurofins Agroscience Services Group Presentation 3

4 Grapevine capabilities We have recently performed insect studies including: Leaf Roller Leaf Hopper Grape Leaf Skeletonizer When grown in light soils, grapes offer opportunity for nematode studies Diseases include Botrytis and powdery mildew VINE LEAFHOPPER Feeding punctures of this pest lead to the appearance of necroses - Veins become dry and the leaf lamina turns brown. Scorch spreads from the edge of the lamina to the Heavy infestations sometimes cause leaves to fall as early as August. 7/14/2010 Eurofins Agroscience Services Group Presentation 4
