Накратко на български

Бактерията Xylella fastidiosa и начинът, по който заразява растения като маслините, се анализират чрез генетика и мониторинг. Това е важно, защото разпространението ѝ може да доведе до огромни आर्थिकни загуби за земеделието в Европа.

Capacity Building And Raising Awareness In Europe And In Third Countries To Cope With Xylella fastidiosa

The European Commission has published on October 11th, 2019 a list of 20 regulated quarantine pests qualifying as priority pests. The list included Xylella fastidiosa whose economic, environmental and social impact on EU's territory is the most severe. Member States will have to launch information campaigns to the public, do annual surveys, prepare contingency plans, simulation exercises, and action plans for the eradication of these pests. The selection of pests is based on the assessment carried out by the Commission's Joint Research Centre and the European Food Safety Authority. It has been shown that the bacterium Xylella fastidiosa, the pest with the highest impact on agricultural crops, including fruit, could cause annual production losses of €5.5 billion, affecting 70% of the EU production value of older olive trees (over 30 years old) and 35% value of younger ones, in a scenario of the bacterium spreading across the entire EU. In addition to direct impacts on production, pests have significant indirect effects on a wide range of upstream or downstream economic sectors. CURE-XF deals with different aspects of the current re-emergence of diseases caused by Xylella fastidiosa: from the detection and characterization of the bacterial strain to the control and management of the diseases. The consortium relies on multidisciplinary expertise on genetics and bioinformatics, pathogen-hosts interactions, diagnosis and monitoring, vector transmission and epidemiology, etc.), with the aim to raise awareness and strengthen actions for prevention. The project promotes collaborative efforts to support capacity building at different level in different Countries. CURE-XF involves 18 partners from the following countries: Italy, France, Greece, Spain, Belgium, the UK, Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia, Lebanon, Palestine and Iran

Цел на проекта

CURE-FX aims to establish a multidisciplinary research program to answer the urgent need to improve prevention, earlydetection and control of Xylella fastidiosa (Xf). An appropriate approach to this emergency should include a coordination and multidisciplinary interaction between a plurality of competences and it can be facilitated by a more intense exchange and mobility of researchers.The objectives of CURE-FX are: To exchange the scientific capacities and novelties among the European Countries as well as between EU and third countries, in particular sensitive neighbor countries. To strengthen the knowledge and the know-how on Xf in third countries having intense exchange of plant material with Europe. To raise awareness in relation to Xf. These objectives will be acheived through: Strengthen preventive measures by consolidating expertise and awareness of plant health agencies, decision-makers and relevant stakeholders; Analyze Xf-hosts interaction and epidemiology; Develop advanced diagnostic tools for the detection and characterization of Xf and associated vectors; Consolidate innovative approaches for disease prevention, monitoring and control; Improving pest risk analysis, phytosanitary legislations and contingency measures for a safe plant material trade and Integrating with current platforms for adequate communication and dissemination ensuring an effective knowledge transfer among the various actors involved. The proposal involves partners from the following countries: Italy, France, Greece, Spain, Belgium, UK, Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia, Lebanon and Iran. Partner countries selected are differently involved in the study and management of quarantine pests, although each one with a different role, approach and competence. These countries can be divided into two groups:Group 1: countries where the disease is already present (Italy, France, Iran); Group 2: the other countries where the disease is currently absent, but the risk of its introduction is high
