食品伙伴網(wǎng)訊   據(jù)歐盟食品安全局消息，近日意大利南部地區(qū)部分植物出現(xiàn)葉緣焦枯病菌（Xylella fastidiosa），對此11月26日歐盟食品安全局發(fā)布關于葉緣焦枯病菌的緊急意見。

    葉緣焦枯病菌在歐盟出現(xiàn)尚屬首次，受感染的植物包括杏樹、梨樹、李子樹、葡萄等。歐盟食品安全局認為，防控的重點應放在栽培類植物貿易與傳染性昆蟲兩方面。

    部分原文報道如下：

    The European Food Safety Authority （EFSA） has concluded that focusing on the trade of plants intended for planting and on the presence of infective insects in plant consignments would be the most effective ways of limiting the spread of the bacteria Xylella fastidiosa that has recently been detected in Southern Italy, the first outbreak of its kind in the European Union.

    Transmitted by certain types of sap-sucking hopper insects, the bacteria X. fastidiosa, has been identified in the current disease outbreak that has affected 8000 hectares of olive trees in the Puglia region of Southern Italy.  The bacteria can be hosted in a very broad range of plants including almond, peach, plum, apricot, grapevines, citrus, coffee and olive as well as oak, elm, Ginkgo and sunflower.  Importantly, plants can carry the bacteria without showing signs of disease.  X. fastidiosa is regulated as a harmful organism in the European Union （EU）， whose introduction into, and spread within, all Member States is banned.
