The presence of vectors plays a fundamental role in determining the phytosanitary risk of phytopathogens in Argentina and is decisive for decision-making regarding the incorporation of a disease in the prioritization of pests for phytosanitary surveillance whose purpose is to define which pests/diseases and For what purpose will they be actively monitored by Senasa. Within the framework of this prioritization, in recent years diseases have not been incorporated because the absence of vectors limits their dispersion and development in the territory, as in the case of Grapevine flavescence dorée phytoplasma, the causal agent of one of the most important yellowing diseases of the vines in Europe, since its vector Scaphoideus titanus is absent in Argentina and South America.Para acceder a la videoconferencia completa, hacer clic en "Enlace externo".Sociedad Latinoamericana de Ecología de Vectores
