South Africa imports plant budwood (dormant cuttings for propagation) from various countries. Phytosanitary measures, including inspections at points of entry, are implemented to minimize the chance of a pest being introduced on the budwood. This study presents the inspections and interceptions of mites and insects on budwood imported to South Africa from 2004 to 2011. The study presents crops and countries from which South Africa imports budwood, and gives data on the type of imports more often infested with arthropods. Interceptions of insects and mites are reported, including interceptions of phytosanitary, economically important and nonphytophagous mites. The arthropod taxa intercepted are listed, and it is noted that the majority of interceptions are of mites, particularly of Eriophyoidea. These data are discussed in the context of quarantine and research.
南非从各国进口植物接穗(用于繁殖的休眠插条)。实施植物检疫措施,包括在入境点进行检查,以最大限度地减少接穗上引入害虫的机会。本研究介绍了 2004 年至 2011 年从南非进口的接穗上螨虫和昆虫的检查和截留情况。该研究介绍了南非进口接穗的作物和国家,并提供了有关更容易受到节肢动物侵染的进口类型的数据。报告了昆虫和螨虫的截留情况,包括植物检疫、经济上重要和非食草螨的截留情况。列出了截留的节肢动物分类群,并指出截留的大多数是螨虫,特别是粉虱目。这些数据在检疫和研究方面进行了讨论。
