Risikoanalyse gebietsfremder Pflanzen - Das neue Arbeitsprogramm der Europäischen Pflanzenschutzorganisation
2004
Schrader, Gritta
The aim of the European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organisation (EPPO) is to prevent the entry and spread of organisms harmful to cultivated as well as to wild plants. Following to the activities of the Convention on Biological Diversity and the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC), EPPO is developing a new working programme on invasive alien species and “pest plants”. To identify the need for regulation of organisms which may be harmful to plants, a pest risk analysis is necessary in most cases. In accordance with the IPPC, an EPPO standard exists to assess risks of „traditional quarantine pests“, which is now revised in order to be also applicable to potentially invasive plants and to the evaluation of impacts invasive alien species relevant for plants pose to the uncultivated environment. In 2003, EPPO has sent a questionnaire to its member states asking for plants which have been introduced into EPPO countries and are considered as invasive or potentially invasive. The member states reported hundreds of plant species, of which 42 were selected for further assessment. The assessments may result in listing of the plants in the existing EPPO lists and recommendations for regulations and measures against the introduction and spread of these or some of these plants. Also plants not yet present in the EPPO region but potentially posing a risk if introduced will be assessed.
