Vitaria — Bacterial biological protection

Bacterial biological protection

Biological protection focused on grapevine canker. The technical foundation is Bacillus halotolerans BJ-3, with a defined strain identity, a Chinese crop-specific registration record and published vineyard research.

Grapevine canker management

A defined grapevine target

Connects a specific biological strain with grapevine canker, rather than treating all trunk diseases as one interchangeable target.

Vineyard evidence

Published research includes a field evaluation on Cabernet Sauvignon, complementing the strain-identification work.

A place in integrated management

A biological option to assess alongside vineyard inspection, pruning hygiene and long-term vine-health records.

Composition & material characteristics

Bacillus halotolerans BJ-3

Bacillus halotolerans BJ-3 is the specific biological strain studied by the Beijing Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Sciences for grapevine canker management.

Documented formulation

China registration PD20252171 records Bacillus halotolerans BJ-3 as water-dispersible granules with a declared viable count of 2.0 × 10¹⁰ CFU/g. This specification identifies the original registered formulation.

Living microbial ingredient

Viable count and batch identity are essential quality descriptors. They should be read with the certificate of analysis and the supplied product label.

Biological targets & documented applications

Public technical records describe the biological identity, target and application context. Each record retains its own strain, formulation and market scope.

Original vineyard study · Cabernet Sauvignon; a 2022 field trial reported in the 2025 paper; four replicates per treatment.

DOCUMENTED APPLICATION

The highest reported field inhibition was 71.94%; two other BJ-3 treatments were 65.66% and 54.83%.

TECHNICAL SCOPE

Treatment-specific results from one trial. They do not establish effectiveness across all cultivars, countries or trunk-disease complexes.

China · crop-specific registration record

DOCUMENTED APPLICATION

PD20252171 identifies Bacillus halotolerans BJ-3 for grapevine canker. The original registration holder is the Beijing Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Sciences.

TECHNICAL SCOPE

Registration evidence defines the original formulation and Chinese crop use. Regional supply and applicable product documentation are assessed for each market.

MARA · Approved biological pesticide labels, Announcement No. 954

Crop applications

The verified Chinese label names grapevine canker. Similar wood symptoms may involve different trunk-disease agents, so diagnosis remains important. Review affected blocks, cultivar, vine age and previous management when assessing relevance to a vineyard. Keep canker outcomes separate from fruit disease, nutritional growth and yield. These are different endpoints and require their own records.

Quality & product characteristics

Strain traceability

Link the BJ-3 identity to the supplied batch documentation and the applicable product specification.

Product and market documentation

Use the relevant market label to define the permitted crop and target. An overseas registration record is a source document, not a local authorization.

Interpretable field records

Record the crop, disease diagnosis, comparison treatment and assessment period with every efficacy result.

Product questions

Does BJ-3 cover every grapevine trunk disease?

The documented scope is grapevine canker. The published study focuses on Botryosphaeria dieback and includes work involving Lasiodiplodia theobromae. Other trunk diseases require separate evidence.

What does the reported field percentage mean?

The 71.94% value is the highest treatment result in one published Cabernet Sauvignon field trial. It is not an average across countries or a guaranteed outcome for every supplied product.
