The emergence of (Xf) in the Balearic Islands in October 2016 was a major phytosanitary challenge with international implications. Immediately after its detection, eradication and containment measures included in Decision 2015/789 were implemented. Surveys intensified during 2017, which soon revealed that the pathogen was widely distributed on the islands and eradication measures were no longer feasible. In this review, we analyzed the control measures carried out by the Balearic Government in compliance with European legislation, as well as the implementation of its control action plan. At the same time, we contrasted them with the results of scientific research accumulated since 2017 on the epidemiological situation. The case of Xf in the Balearic Islands is paradigmatic since it concentrates on a small territory with one of the widest genetic diversities of Xf affecting crops and forest ecosystems. We also outline the difficulties of anticipating unexpected epidemiological situations in the legislation on harmful exotic organisms on which little biological information is available. Because Xf has become naturalized in the islands, coexistence alternatives based on scientific knowledge are proposed to reorient control strategies towards the main goal of minimizing damage to crops and the landscape.
2016年10月,(Xf)在巴利阿里群岛出现,这是一个具有国际影响的重大植物检疫挑战。一经发现,立即实施了第2015/789号决定中包含的根除和遏制措施。2017年加强了调查,很快发现该病原体在这些岛屿上广泛分布,根除措施不再可行。在本综述中,我们分析了巴利阿里政府根据欧洲立法采取的控制措施,以及其控制行动计划的实施情况。同时,我们将这些措施与自2017年以来积累的关于流行病学情况的科研结果进行了对比。巴利阿里群岛的Xf案例具有典型性,因为它集中在一个小区域,而Xf影响作物和森林生态系统的遗传多样性却是最广泛的之一。我们还概述了在关于有害外来生物的立法中预测意外流行病学情况的困难,因为关于这些生物的生物学信息很少。由于Xf已在这些岛屿上归化,我们提出基于科学知识的共存方案,以便将控制策略重新导向将对作物和景观的损害降至最低这一主要目标。
