Book (stand-alone)Regional Standards for Phytosanitary Measures. Guidelines for the confirmation of non-host status of fruit and vegetables to tephritid fruit flies 2005
Also available in:
No results found.A standard method for the confirmation of non-host status of fruit and vegetables to tephritid fruit flies has important ramifications for international trade in many fresh fruit and vegetable commodities. Non-host or conditional non-host status at a particular stage of harvest maturity can be used as a phytosanitary measure to ensure freedom from fruit fly infestation. However, published records of hosts for particular fruit fly species may not always be reliable for determining non-host stat us for phytosanitary purposes. They may be misleading, incomplete or incorrect for negotiating market access protocols. This standard uses well-known techniques to provide a regular methodology for solving the problem of inaccurate host status records or the absence of host status information. This standard was endorsed by the by the twenty-fourth session of the Asia and Pacific Plant Protection Commission (APPPC) held in Bangkok, Thailand in September 2005. Regional standards for phytosa nitary measures are developed and adopted by APPPC as part of the plant protection programme of the Commission's contracting parties to support regional harmonization and facilitate trade of commodities by member countries. -
Book (stand-alone)Guidelines on phytosanitary procedures for area-wide management of fruit fly pests 2024
Also available in:
No results found.This guideline describes the most widely used classic and modern phytosanitary procedures for the management of fruit flies that infest fruits and vegetables and that are of quarantine and economic importance, specifically species of the genera Anastrepha, Bactrocera, Ceratitis, Dacus, Rhagoletis and Zeugodacus. Pest management can be aimed at the native species of fruit flies or to prevent the introduction, establishment and spread of non-native species.This document is the first comprehensive guideline developed by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the united Nations (FAO) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) for area-wide fruit fly pest management including area-wide suppression, containment, eradication, and exclusion strategies. It is a much-needed complement to the already published FAO/IAEA guidelines for fruit fly survey “Trapping Guidelines for Area-wide Fruit Fly Programmes” and “Fruit Sampling Guidelines for Area-Wide Fruit Fly Programmes”. -
Book (stand-alone)Regional Standards for Phytosanitary Measures. Guidelines for the development of heat disinfestation treatments of fruit fly host commodities 2004
Also available in:
No results found.Phytosanitary measures are often required for imported commodities to prevent the introduction of quarantine pests. Such measures need to be appropriate for a specific commodity and effective against the quarantine pests of that commodity. Among the options available, heat treatment is regarded as one the measures that is environmentally friendly and free from residues. Endorsed by the twenty-third session of the Asia and Pacific Plant Protection Commission (APPPC) held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in August 2003, these guidelines describe methods for identifying and developing appropriate heat disinfestation treatments against quarantine fruit flies in host commodities traded by APPPC member countries. Regional standards for phytosanitary measures are developed and adopted by APPPC as part of the plant protection programme of the Commission's contracting parties to support regional harmonization and facilitate trade of commodities by member countries.
