Table 4.
Vegetative growth, yield components and vine balance recorded on vines of SG (susceptible clone R10) and accession 72-096 (resistant). PF = partially sprayed. FS = fully sprayed.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PS-SG | 8.0 | 13.3ab | 257b | 2.775a | 113b | 14.8 | 19.0a | 3.413 | 2.9032 | 0.854 |

Cluster thickness is given as total fresh berry mass to rachis length ratio (g/cm). LA = leaf area
* and ** denote significant differences between treatments at P < 0.05 and 0.01 according to within column mean separation performed with SNK test and showed by small letters. ns = not significant.
