Abstract: Field observation and laboratory studies, conducted on Carignane grape buds at Davis, have shown the grape bud mite to be capable of inflicting severe injury that may result in loss of crop and death of the infested vines. Typical symptoms of bud-mite injury are: deformation of the primordial clusters, distortion of the basal leaves, stunting of the main growing point of the buds, and death of the overwintered buds. Evaluation of mite damage in the field is often complicated by abnormal growth caused by diseases and other grape pests.
