The identity of the pests is clearly defined and reliable methods exist for their detection/identification. They are listed in Annex IIAI of Directive 2000/29/EC as Alternaria alternata (non-European pathogenic isolates). Their distribution in the EU is restricted though with some uncertainty. The AM-toxin producer Alternaria affect Malus spp. and Pyrus communis (European pear), whereas the AK-toxin producer affect Pyrus pyrifolia, Pyrus bretschneideri and Pyrus ussuriensis (Asian pears). The pests could potentially enter the EU on host-planting material and fruit originating in infested countries. There are no biotic/abiotic factors limiting their potential establishment and spread in the EU, as their epidemiology is similar to that of other well-established Alternaria spp. Apples and European pears are widespread in the EU; Japanese pears are also present, but no data was found on their abundance/distribution. In the infested areas, the pests cause premature defoliation, fruit spotting and rot resulting in yield/quality losses. It is expected that the introduction and spread of the pests in the EU could impact apple and pear production, although the magnitude is unknown. Cultural practices and chemical measures may reduce the inoculum and the disease, but they cannot eliminate the pests. Phytosanitary measures are available to mitigate the risk of introduction and spread of the pests. The pests do not meet all the criteria assessed by EFSA for consideration as potential Union quarantine pests, as they are not under official control in those EU restricted areas where they have been found. The pests do not meet all the criteria assessed by EFSA to consider them as Union regulated non-quarantine pests, as host plants for planting are not the main means of pest spread. © 2017 European Food Safety Authority.

  • Post-Entry Quarantine of Potato Material in the Uk
    POST-ENTRY QUARANTINE OF POTATO MATERIAL IN THE UK NOTES FOR EC BASED IMPORTERS (and exporters (Appendix 3)) 1. Scope The purpose of this document is to familiarise potato breeders and potential UK and EC based potato importers with the procedure for applying to have potato material tested at the United Kingdom Quarantine Unit (UKPQU) and the rules that apply. 2. The Legislation 2.1 Material from outside the EC In general all Solanum tuberosum seed potatoes and stolon- or tuber- forming Solanum spp. from a gene bank, or breeding lines of Solanum spp. or their hybrids entering the European Community (EC) from a third country for planting must be quarantine tested as specified in Commission Directive 2008/61/EC. 2.2 Material from inside the EC All S. tuberosum intended for planting must have been derived in a direct line from quarantine tested material and maintained under conditions to prevent re-infection from harmful organisms. In addition all stolon- or tuber- forming Solanum spp. from a gene bank or breeding lines of Solanum spp. or their hybrids intended for planting must also be subjected to quarantine testing (Council Directive 2000/29/EC Annex IV Part A , Section II 18.3). All material held in potato gene banks must be notified to the Plant Health Authority (Council Directive 2000/29/EC as amended). Once material has been tested it is eligible for an EC Plant Passport and it may be moved and planted in another Member State without further quarantine, providing it has been maintained under conditions to prevent re-infection from harmful organisms, 2.4 The Plant Passport All stolon- or tuber- forming Solanum material for planting in Member States must be accompanied by a "Plant Passport" to indicate that the material meets the requirements of the Plant Health Directive.

    SCIENTIFIC OPINION ADOPTED: 20 September 2018 doi: 10.2903/j.efsa.2018.5445 Pest categorisation of Thecaphora solani EFSA Panel on Plant Health (PLH), Claude Bragard, Katharina Dehnen-Schmutz, Francesco Di Serio, Paolo Gonthier, Marie-Agnes Jacques, Josep Anton Jaques Miret, Annemarie Fejer Justesen, Alan MacLeod, Christer Sven Magnusson, Panagiotis Milonas, Juan A Navas-Cortes, Stephen Parnell, Roel Potting, Philippe Lucien Reignault, Hans-Hermann Thulke, Wopke Van der Werf, Jonathan Yuen, Lucia Zappala, Vittorio Rossi, Irene Vloutoglou, Bernard Bottex and Antonio Vicent Civera Abstract The Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of the fungus Thecaphora solani, the causal agent of smut of potato, for the EU. The identity of the pest is well established and reliable methods exist for its detection and identification. T. solani is present in Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, Panama, Peru and Venezuela. The pathogen is not known to occur in the EU and is listed in Annex IAI of Directive 2000/29/EC, meaning its introduction into the EU is prohibited. The major host is Solanum tuberosum (potato), but various other tuber-forming Solanum species are also affected. The pest has also been reported on Solanum lycopersicum (tomato), and wild solanaceous plants are also affected. All the major hosts and pathways of entry are currently regulated. Host availability and climate matching suggest that T. solani could establish in parts of the EU and further spread by human-assisted means. The disease induces gall formation on potato tubers, stolons and underground stem parts, reducing yield and making tubers unmarketable. The pest introduction in the EU would potentially cause impacts to potato production.

  • Pest Categorisation of Coniferiporia&
    SCIENTIFIC OPINION ADOPTED: 17 May 2018 doi: 10.2903/j.efsa.2018.5302 Pest categorisation of Coniferiporia sulphurascens and Coniferiporia weirii EFSA Panel on Plant Health (PLH), Michael Jeger, Claude Bragard, David Caffier, Thierry Candresse, Elisavet Chatzivassiliou, Katharina Dehnen-Schmutz, Gianni Gilioli, Jean-Claude Gregoire, Josep Anton Jaques Miret, Alan MacLeod, Maria Navajas Navarro, Bjorn€ Niere, Stephen Parnell, Roel Potting, Trond Rafoss, Vittorio Rossi, Gregor Urek, Ariena Van Bruggen, Wopke Van der Werf, Jonathan West, Stephan Winter, Johanna Boberg, Paolo Gonthier and Marco Pautasso Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Coniferiporia sulphurascens and Coniferiporia weirii, two well-defined and distinguishable fungal species of the family Hymenochaetaceae. The pathogens are regulated in Council Directive 2000/29/EC (Annex IAI, under the previous name Inonotus weirii for both species) as a harmful organism whose introduction into the EU is banned. The two pathogens are native to North America, where C. sulphurascens causes laminated root rot primarily in Douglas fir(Pseudotsuga menziesii) and grand fir(Abies grandis), while C. weirii causes cedar laminated root and butt rot mainly in cedars (Thuja plicata and Cupressus nootkatensis). C. weirii has been reported from Japan and China, and C. sulphurascens from China, Russia and Turkey. Neither species has been reported from the EU. C. sulphurascens may infect all conifers, while C. weirii is reported to mainly cause disease in tree species of Thuja spp. and Cupressus spp. The two pathogens could enter the EU mainly via wood with bark, isolated bark and plants for planting (including artificially dwarfed plants) of Pinaceae and Cupressaceae.

  • Pest Categorisation of Elsinoë Fawcettii and E. Australis
    SCIENTIFIC OPINION ADOPTED: 22 November 2017 doi: 10.2903/j.efsa.2017.5100 Pest categorisation of Elsinoe€ fawcettii and E. australis EFSA Panel on Plant Health (PLH), Michael Jeger, Claude Bragard, David Caffier, Thierry Candresse, Elisavet Chatzivassiliou, Katharina Dehnen-Schmutz, Gianni Gilioli, Jean-Claude Gregoire, Josep Anton Jaques Miret, Alan MacLeod, Maria Navajas Navarro, Bjorn€ Niere, Stephen Parnell, Roel Potting, Trond Rafoss, Gregor Urek, Ariena Van Bruggen, Wopke Van der Werf, Jonathan West, Stephan Winter, Antonio Vicent, Irene Vloutoglou, Bernard Bottex and Vittorio Rossi Abstract The Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Elsinoe€ fawcettii and E. australis, the causal agents of citrus scab diseases, for the EU. The identities of the pests are well-established and reliable methods exist for their detection/identification. The pests are listed in Annex IIAI of Directive 2000/29/EC as Elsinoe€ spp. and are not known to occur in the EU. Species and hybrids of citrus (Family Rutaceae) are affected by E. fawcettii and E. australis, with the latter having a more restricted host range and geographical distribution compared to the former. The status of Simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) as a host of E. australis is uncertain. The pests could potentially enter the EU on host plants for planting and fruit originating in infested Third countries. The current distribution of the pests, climate matching and the use of irrigation in the EU citrus-growing areas suggest that the pests could establish and spread in the EU citrus-growing areas. Uncertainty exists on whether cultural practices and control methods, currently applied in the EU, would prevent the establishment of the pests.

RESUMEN Los hongos-roya (Uredinales, Basidiomycetes) representan uno de los grupos de microor- ganismos fitoparásitos más diversos y con mayor importancia económica mundial en la producción agrícola y forestal. Se caracterizan por ser patógenos obligados y por presentar una estrecha coevolución con sus hospedantes vegetales. Su taxonomía se ha basado fundamentalmente en el estudio de caracteres morfológicos, resultando en muchos casos en la formación de taxones polifiléticos. Sin embargo, en los últimos años se han tratado de incorporar herramientas moleculares que conduzcan a la generación de sistemas de clasificación basados en afinidades evolutivas. En esta revisión se ofrece una mirada general a las características de los uredinales, enfatizando en el surgimiento reciente de estudios filogenéticos que plantean la necesidad de establecer una profunda revisión de la taxonomía de este grupo.

Characterising plant pathogen communities and their environmental drivers at a national scale A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University by Andreas Makiola Lincoln University, New Zealand 2019 General abstract Plant pathogens play a critical role for global food security, conservation of natural ecosystems and future resilience and sustainability of ecosystem services in general. Thus, it is crucial to understand the large-scale processes that shape plant pathogen communities. The recent drop in DNA sequencing costs offers, for the first time, the opportunity to study multiple plant pathogens simultaneously in their naturally occurring environment effectively at large scale. In this thesis, my aims were (1) to employ next-generation sequencing (NGS) based metabarcoding for the detection and identification of plant pathogens at the ecosystem scale in New Zealand, (2) to characterise plant pathogen communities, and (3) to determine the environmental drivers of these communities. First, I investigated the suitability of NGS for the detection, identification and quantification of plant pathogens using rust fungi as a model system.

  • Puccinia Pittieriana
    EPPO quarantine pest Prepared by CABI and EPPO for the EU under Contract 90/399003 Data Sheets on Quarantine Pests Puccinia pittieriana IDENTITY Name: Puccinia pittieriana P. Hennings Taxonomic position: Fungi: Basidiomycetes: Uredinales Common names: Common potato rust (English) Rouille de la pomme de terre (French) Roya de la papa (Spanish) Bayer computer code: PUCCPT EPPO A1 list: No. 155 EU Annex designation: II/A1 HOSTS The main hosts are potatoes and tomatoes. Solanum demissum and other wild Solanaceae are also attacked. Although other rusts are known on Solanaceae, P. pittieriana is the only telial rust known on potatoes and tomatoes (Laundon & Rainbow, 1971). GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION P. pittieriana is indigenous to Central and South America, where it occurs in mountain valleys, mostly over 3000 m. It has not spread to other continents. EPPO region: Absent. North America: Mexico. Central America and Caribbean: Costa Rica. South America: Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, Venezuela. EU: Absent. Distribution map: See IMI (1994, No. 113). BIOLOGY P. pittieriana is a microcyclic rust, producing only teliospores. Below 15°C, the teliospores germinate to produce basidia and basidiospores in 3-24 h (French, 1981). The basidiospores are carried away by wind to new host leaves, and begin infection immediately. The incubation period is 14-16 days on potatoes at temperatures of 16°C or below, and lesions develop fully in 20-25 days. Teliospores mature 30-40 days after inoculation. At higher temperatures, basidiospores are not formed, so spread is favoured by cool conditions - average temperature of 10°C with 10-12 h of free moisture.

Corregido 10-IX-2010. Aceptado 26-X-2010. Abstract: Phylogenetic analysis of rust fungi (Uredinales) from the Colombian Andean region using 28S ribosomal DNA sequences. Rust fungi (Uredinales, Basidiomycetes) are one of the most diverse and economi- cally important plant-obligated parasites. Taxonomy of this group has been under revision during the last years using molecular techniques to define phylogenetic relationships. In this study we evaluated the phylogenetic affinities of a group of 40 rust fungi obtained from different plants in the Colombian Andean region using sequence analysis of the 28S ribosomal DNA, specifically D1/D2 domains. Comparisons were undertaken with sequences of rust fungi from around the world deposited in the GenBank database. An alignment of sequences was used to build a phylogenetic tree through Maximum parsimony analysis. Our results support the taxo- nomical validity of families Pucciniaceae, Phakopsoraceae, Phragmidiaceae, Pileolariaceae, Mikronegeriaceae, Coleosporiaceae and Cronartiaceae, while Pucciniosiraceae represents redundant taxa with Pucciniaceae. The analyses indicated that Uropyxidaceae, Raveneliaceae, Chaconiaceae and Pucciniastraceae correspond to poly- phyletic families. Melampsoraceae appear to be a basal taxon to the Uredinales. Information obtained in this study will be useful to incorporate a higher number of sequences from tropical rust fungi within global efforts to redefine the taxonomy of order Uredinales.

Gurung Copyright ©2017 NARC. Permits unrestricted use, distribution and reproduction in any medium provided the original work is properly cited ABSTRACT Pest Risk Analysis (PRA) is the process of evaluation for biological and economic evidences in order to determine whether a pest should be regulated under phyto-sanitary measures. The present mini review highlights the potential potato pathogen list recorded in Nepal harmful for potato production and productivity. At global scale altogether 135 potential quarantine pests (PQP) for potato has been recorded, while in Nepal only 92 PQP were recorded. Out of those 52, 13 and 27 were fungi, bacteria and viruses respectively. Among the 92 PQP, 34, 30 and 13 were considered at high, medium and lower risk type pathogens for potato. There was no information available on other 15 PQP.
