Interpretive Summary: The availability of and easy access to Vitis genetic resources are essential for future breeding program advances. Cryopreservation is currently considered an ideal means for the long-term preservation of clonally propagated plant genetic resources. When robust Vitis cryopreservation methods are available, there is an opportunity to preserve collections for extended lengths of time with minimal cost and labor requirements, and a low risk of loss. This chapter describes the droplet vitrification and V cryo-plate protocols that have been shown to be effective for the cryopreservation of multiple V. vinifera genotypes and other Vitis species.
