Download Citrus spp. nursery stock - Pest Risk Assessment

A review is being carried out of the Import Health Standards 155.02.06: Importation of Nursery Stock, specific Citrus schedule, which is out of date. As inputs to this review, pest risk assessments are required for eight organisms that have been identified as pests of Citrus but do not currently have a requirement for specific tests. These pest risk assessments examine the risks posed by eight micro-organisms (viruses, viroids, phytoplasmas, and bacteria) associated with the importation of Citrus nursery stock from all countries. All eight species are found to be non-negligible risks associated with Citrus nursery stock.
