Abstract
To investigate the severity of crown gall disease on grapevine, the ratio of healthy vs. galled grapevines and the presence of the pathogen of the disease in soil were measured in Korean vineyards. In field and greenhouse cultivations, the crown gall incidence of the cv. Kyoho grapevines was and and those of cv. Campbell Early was and , respectively. The higher populations of Agrobacterium spp. were isolated from soils of grapeveins with crown gall than from soils of noninfected vineyards. Based on the colony shapes and growth on plates, 480 isolates of Agrobacterium spp. from 21 soil samples were collected. Only 13 isolates out of 480 developed the gall on inoculated grapevines.
