Rapid Pest Risk Analysis (PRA) for: Tomato ringspot virus (ToRSV)

Description

This rapid PRA shows that Tomato ringspot virus is a quarantine virus that has become established in parts of the EU, and is very likely to be present in the UK. Though the virus is spread by nematode vectors not present in the UK, it can still establish via seed, pollen and clonal propagation of infected ornamental plants, though impacts in these hosts are small.
