Cleaning grapevine trunk is a technique often used to limit the effects of grapevine trunk diseases (GTDs). GTDs as Esca, Botryosphaeria- and Eutypa diebacks are an important cause of European vineyard decline, and they could lead to vines death in the medium to long term. In fact, the pathogens associated to GTDs are fungi that colonize the woody tissues, damaging them in terms of structure and functionality.
