26: Controlling Mealybug Vectors of Grapevine Viruses

This podcast is an excerpt of the talk Dr. Kent Daane delivered at the 2017 Sustainable Ag Expo. Although Dr. Daane has laboratories on the Berkeley Campus and at the Kearney Ag Center in Parlier, much of his work is conducted in the vineyard. Recognized as one of the foremost experts in California on controlling mealybug vectors of grapevine viruses, he shares the findings from some of his most recent research from the field.
