Session 1: Frenkel’s legacy: what is keeping us?FAO
In 1947, Dr. H. S. Frenkel reported growth of Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) virus in cultured explants of cattle tongue epithelium. This method was subsequently developed for large-scale production of the virus, thus creating possibilities for FMD vaccine production on a much wider scale than hitherto. Frenkel-type vaccines were first used for large scale cattle vaccinations in the Netherlands in 1953. The number of FMD cases dropped dramatically, but rose again in the early 60-ties, especially in pigs. It was not until the late 60-ties, when the neighboring countries started to vaccinate routinely, that FMD disease was gradually brought under control. The lessons from this early experience are twofold: first FMD can be controlled, even with the classical vaccines in countries with a dense population of susceptible animals, and second such efforts are best undertaken as part of a regional approach. In other regions the lessons learned were similar, for instance in South America where remarkable progress with FMD control has been achieved.

Quarantine protocols for export of fruit and vegetablesNanje Gowda
Quarantine protocols and standards are essential for facilitating safe global trade while preventing the introduction and spread of agricultural pests and diseases. Various treatments like fumigation, heat treatments, and irradiation can be used to meet quarantine requirements. Adhering to international standards and conducting pest risk analyses are important for agricultural exports. Quarantine inspections and certifications allow exports to meet import requirements while protecting domestic agriculture.
Plant quarantine and phytosanitary certificationtusharamodugu
The word quarantine derives from the Italian word “quaranti giorni”, meaning ‘about fourty days’. After the Black Death arrived in Europe in 1347, observation and experience showed that the incubation time for the disease, from infection to the appearance of symptoms, was a little less than 40 days.
Plant quarantine is defined as the legal enforcement of the measures aimed to prevent pests from spreading or to prevent them from multiplying further in case, they have already gained entry and have established in new restricted areas.
The importance of imposing restrictions on the movement of pest-infested plants or plant materials from one country to another was realized by Ireland famine 1845, the late blight pathogen (Phytophthora infestans) introduced into Ireland from Central
America resulted in almost total failure of the potato crop, the grapevine phylloxera was introduced into France from America around 1860, and the San Jose scale spread into the US in the latter part of the eighteenth century and caused severe damage. The first international plant protection convention (IPPC), the Phylloxera convention was signed at Berne on 3 November 1881 by five countries. This convention remained in force till 1951, when International Plant Protection Convention under FAO was established at Rome. This agreement was constituted with the purpose of securing common and effective action to prevent the introduction and spread of pests and diseases of plants and plant products.
The first Quarantine Act in the US came into force on 1905, while India passed an act in 1914 entitled “Destructive Insect and Pests Act of 1914”. This was later supplemented by a more comprehensive act in 1917.
This document discusses regulatory plant pathology and the spread of plant diseases globally. It summarizes several plant diseases and insects that have spread between continents due to global trade and movement of plant materials. It then outlines the various international, regional, federal, and state organizations that regulate the movement of plants and plant pests, including the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) and the North American Plant Protection Organization (NAPPO). It also provides details on regulations in the US, the Plant Protection Act, and the roles of the USDA and Department of Homeland Security in inspecting imports and preventing the introduction of invasive plant pests.
Regulatory control involves preventing the introduction and spread of foreign plant and animal pests. The Plant Quarantine Service (PQS) regulates plant imports and exports in the Philippines to comply with international standards. As the national plant protection organization, PQS enforces quarantine through inspections at ports of entry and restrictions on the movement of regulated plant materials between areas. Legislation categorizes regulations on foreign quarantine, domestic quarantine, enforcement of pest control measures, quality control of insecticides, and personnel activities related to pest control. Introduced pests in the Philippines like various scales and the golden apple snail have negatively impacted ecosystems.
The document summarizes import controls and inspection procedures for fruits and vegetables in the European Union. It discusses:
- The objectives of import inspections are to detect regulated pests to ensure compliance with EU requirements and verify the effectiveness of phytosanitary measures.
- Minimum conditions for inspection posts include having the authority, technical competence, and facilities to properly store, quarantine, and destroy intercepted consignments if necessary.
- Sampling methods aim to select a representative sample to evaluate infestation, collect information, and verify compliance. The sample size depends on factors like the type of goods, packaging, and size of the consignment.

The document summarizes new EU phytosanitary import requirements for fresh fruits and vegetables that take effect on September 1, 2019 and December 14, 2019. Key changes include requiring phytosanitary certificates for more products, stricter requirements to control for harmful organisms in certain fruits like citrus and mango, and prohibiting imports of "high risk plants" unless countries prove they are pest-free. Exporters are advised to contact local authorities to ensure they can comply with the new rules around phytosanitary certificates and requirements specified for individual products to maintain access to the EU market.
This document provides an overview of pest risk analysis concepts and the development of pest risk analysis. Some key points:
1. Pest risk analysis involves three main stages - initiation, pest risk assessment, and pest risk management. It is used to evaluate biosecurity risks associated with importing plant materials and living organisms.
2. International standards for phytosanitary measures provide guidelines for conducting pest risk analysis in order to facilitate safe trade while protecting against quarantine pests.
3. The WTO SPS agreement requires that phytosanitary measures be based on pest risk analysis and international standards. This has increased the importance and use of pest risk analysis in plant protection globally.
Save Our Seeds: Agriculture and Environment Threatened by GE Seed Contaminati...Seeds
The document discusses a proposed EU directive that would legalize low levels of genetic contamination in conventional and organic seeds. Specifically:
- It would allow up to 0.3% GE seed contamination in oilseed rape, and up to 0.5% contamination in maize, beet, potatoes, tomatoes and cotton.
- These thresholds could result in 7,000 million unregulated GE plants being released each year across EU farmland, rising to 11,000 million with EU enlargement.
- Environmental, farmer and consumer groups oppose this proposal, arguing it threatens the viability of organic agriculture and farmers' rights to choose non-GE seeds.
Plant quarantine involves legally restricting the movement of agricultural commodities and plants to prevent the introduction and spread of pests and diseases. It works by isolating imported plants and inspecting and treating them to ensure they are free from foreign pathogens before release. The main goals of plant quarantine are to safeguard agriculture from new pests and diseases and facilitate safe global trade by certifying plants are pest-free. It operates through domestic and international restrictions at 26 entry points in Bangladesh such as airports, seaports and land border crossings.
Management of Seed-Borne Plant Pathogens/Diseases and Procedure for Healthy S...Dhaval Bhanderi
This document discusses management of seed-borne plant pathogens and procedures for healthy seed production. It covers five main control methods - regulatory, cultural, physical, chemical, and biological. Regulatory methods involve quarantines and inspections to prevent spread. Cultural methods adjust crop management like using dry climates for seed production. Physical methods apply heat or solar treatments to seeds. Chemical methods treat seeds with fungicides, bactericides or nematicides. The goal is to produce pathogen-free seeds and prevent introduction and spread of diseases.
The document discusses various aspects of quarantine measures for international trade. It begins by defining quarantine and isolation in the context of preventing the spread of pests and diseases. It then covers the importance of quarantine in export promotion, international quarantine standards set by organizations like the IPPC and WTO, and different quarantine treatments like fumigation and thermal treatments.
This document summarizes techniques for scouting and managing insect pests that affect vegetable crops. It discusses common vegetable insect pests like aphids, thrips, flea beetles, and caterpillars. It provides guidance on scouting methods for different pests and thresholds for when to take action. It also reviews options for insecticides, including biopesticides, and emphasizes the importance of integrated pest management.
The document discusses pest risk analysis and provides examples of pest risk assessments conducted for various plant pests. It describes the three stages of pest risk analysis: initiation, pest risk assessment, and pest risk management. Several case studies are presented that assess the risk of fungal, bacterial, and viral plant pathogens, as well as phytonematodes. Common risk management options are also outlined, such as inspection, treatment, certification systems, and restrictions on commodities.
Unit 5. Pest Management in Ecological Vegetable GardeningKarel Van Isacker
This document provides information on pests that affect vegetable crops like tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, potatoes and onions. It discusses various viral, fungal and bacterial diseases that impact tomato yields. Specifically, it describes diseases like tobacco mosaic virus, early blight, fusarium wilt and late blight, and their symptoms. It also covers management of these diseases and pests through prevention, resistant varieties, and legislation in Bulgaria, Slovenia and Turkey regarding organic farming practices.
This document discusses biosecurity strategy for plants in Wales. It covers governing and regulating plant health, monitoring threats from plant pests and diseases, and implementing policies. Key aspects include ecosystem resilience, controlling the spread of diseases like Phytophthora ramorum through monitoring and quarantine measures, and raising public awareness of plant health issues. Government agencies, researchers, and industry work together on legislation, surveillance, training, and international cooperation to manage plant health in Wales.
Genetically modified crops now represent 11% of the world's cultivated land, with the largest areas being in the Americas, India, and China. While GMOs promise benefits like increased yields and pest resistance, there are also concerns about their effects on biodiversity and the dominance of the market by a few large corporations who hold patents on GMO seeds. The cultivation and import of GMOs into the European Union remains a controversial issue with differing positions among member states.

White fly control in fruit crops under protected STRUCTUREiari
White flies are a major pest in greenhouse fruit crops. The warm, humid conditions in greenhouses allow whitefly populations to grow rapidly. Several whitefly species can infest fruit crops, with the greenhouse whitefly (Trialeurodes vaporariorum) and sweet potato whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) being most common. Integrated pest management for whiteflies in greenhouses includes prevention through exclusion barriers and sanitation, monitoring with yellow sticky cards, and control using biological controls like parasitoids and predators, entomopathogenic fungi and nematodes, and selective use of biopesticides or chemical pesticides.
This document provides information about pesticides including:
- Pesticides are substances used to kill, repel, or control certain forms of plant or animal life considered pests. They include herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, and others.
- Pesticides have a brief history beginning with organized agriculture when pests threatened food supplies, and are now widely used to support efficient use of resources and high standards of living.
- Pesticides have benefits but also risks, so safer chemicals and application methods are constantly improved through research and education while balancing policies based on facts.
The document discusses the proper handling and management of biomedical waste in healthcare facilities. It outlines the types of waste generated, including risk waste like infectious, pathological, sharps, pharmaceutical and radioactive waste, as well as non-risk waste. It emphasizes the importance of segregating waste at the source and provides guidelines for handling, storing, transporting and disposing of different types of waste properly to avoid health risks. Specific procedures for managing waste in areas like ICUs, operating theatres and dental clinics are also covered.
This document provides information about whiteflies, specifically the sweet potato whitefly (Bemisia tabaci). It discusses the biology and lifecycle of whiteflies, including that females lay eggs on undersides of leaves and nymphs feed on plant phloem and excrete honeydew. Heavy whitefly infestations can cause damage through sap loss and sooty mold buildup. It also describes whiteflies' role in transmitting viruses like tomato yellow leaf curl virus to tomato plants. The document outlines both cultural and chemical management methods for whiteflies, including using tolerant varieties, removing infected plants, applying systemic insecticides, and conserving natural enemies.
In nature, insects use organic compounds called pheromones to communicate with each other, sending signals to help them attract a mate, send alarm signals or otherwise affect behaviour.
