We have beendoing research on two phytoplasma diseases relevant for Norwegian plantproduction. Theoccurrence of Apple proliferation phytoplasma in NorwayOurinstitute was made aware of suspicious symptoms in 1996. A few trees of apple‘Summerred’ in Gvarv, Telmark County, had symptoms looking like appleproliferation. This case initiated a survey. The first samples were analyzed inEngland. Later we have done the PCR-diagnosis in our own lab.During asurvey carried out from 1996 to 1998, Apple proliferation was found in 14orchards: 1 experimental orchard inTelemark County, 4 orchards in Vestfold County, 4 orchards in Hordaland Countyand 5 orchards in the County of Sogn og Fjordane.Appleproliferation has later also been found at other locations. From this we canconclude that this quarantine disease is found in almost all importantfruit-producing districts. It is important to follow the situation to stopfurther spread of this disease. All infected trees have been eradicated.Theamount and distribution of Poinsettia branch-inducing phytoplasma in poinsettiaFree-branchingpoinsettias (Euphorbia pulcherrima) were first introduced during the sixties throughthe Norwegian cultivar ‘Annette Hegg’. The identity of the “branching agent”,was proven to be a phytoplasma, termed Poinsettia branch-inducing phytoplasma(PoiBI) (Lee et al. Int. Journal of Syst. Bacteriology 48,1153-1169.1998).Without phytoplasma, poinsettias grow tall, and produce very few branches.We havestudied the relative amount and distribution of PoiBI in poinsettia and howthis relates to branching in different cultivars grown under different lightlevels and temperatures using a quantitative PCR assay (TaqMan). Results fromthis work were presented.

In 1998 Plum pox virus (PPV) wasdetected for the first time in Norway. Virus-like symptoms were observed on several trees in a collection ofplum cultivars at Njøs Research Station in the Sogn og Fjordane County in WestNorway. The Norwegian Food SafetyAuthority and the Norwegian Crop Research Institute immediately startedsurveying other variety collections around the country, nuclear stock materialand orchards in all important plum-growing areas. Since 1998 we have surveyed themain part of the commercial plum orchards in Norway. About 75 000 individualtrees have been tested. About 1 % of the trees have been found infected by PPV.Only the PPV-D strain has been found. It is suspected that the main infectionsource was infected plums or apricots imported to Njøs around 1970 or earlier.In most plum orchards in Norway,the spread of PPV by aphids is relatively slow. Therefore, we expect to be ableto eradicate PPV from commercial plum orchards in the near future.The eradication work iscontinuing.

Julestjerne er en av de viktigste potteplantene i verden. Julestjerne er den potteplanten det lages flest av i Norge, rundt 6 millioner planter hvert år. Førstehåndsverdien for julestjerne produsert i Norge er rundt 75 mill kroner og utsalgsprisen 4-5 ganger høyere.

VKM"s Panel 9 gives the following main conclusions of part 2 of the risk assessment: 1) Under the present climatic conditions, and if no control measures are taken, an introduction of PWN to the PRA area will not cause increased pine tree mortality. The level of uncertainty of this assessment is low. 2) Assuming the IS92a climate change scenario for the period 2000-2049 (RegClim), which involves a ~2 ºC temperature increase by the end of the period, an introduction of PWN to the PRA area will, if no control measures are taken, cause a minor increase in pine tree mortality (300 trees per year on average). The mortality can become larger if the temperature increases more than 2 ºC, and will gradually increase with time after 2049 due to spread of PWN. The level of uncertainty of these assessments is medium to high. 3) Any effects of PWN presence in the PRA area on export of wood and wood products will be of little importance. The level uncertainty of this assessment is low. 4) It will be almost impossible to eradicate PWN once it has been introduced to the PRA area. The level of uncertainty of this assessment is low. 5) The cost of a single eradication event as described in the preliminary contingency plan for the PRA area is approximately 700 mill. NOK. Due to expected spread, the total cost of eradication attempts following one introduction event will be approximately 2000 mill. NOK for the first 50 years. The level of uncertainty of these assessments is medium. 6) The negative effects of the control measures on the environment will be major. The level of uncertainty of this assessment is low.

Julestjerne er den potteplanten det lages flest av i Norge, rundt 6 mill planter hvert år. Førstehåndsverdien for julestjerne produsert i Norge er rundt 75 mill kr og utsalgsprisen 4-5 ganger høyere. Julestjerne er også en av de viktigste potteplantene i verden. I USA omsettes årlig ca 60 mill og i Europa ca 100 mill planter. I Kina blir julestjerne mer og mer verdsatt. Den blir brukt til pynting på offentlige steder og ved feiring av nasjonaldagen. Julestjerne vil fortsatt dominere blomstermarket i både Norge og verden forøvrig. Bioforsk Plantehelse har forsket på virus og andre sjukdommer i julestjerne siden 1990-tallet. Vi har brukt nye metoder for genetisk transformering og ny kunnskap om planters resistens mot virus. Nå har vi en genmodifisert julestjerne som er resistent mot et vanlig virus, poinsettiamosaikkvirus. Resultatene fra dette arbeidet er ikke bare et spennende plantemateriale. Vel så viktig er etableringen av en metode for genetiske transformering av julestjerne. Det åpner muligheter for å lage planter som både er mer kompakte og mer resistente mot viktige skadegjørere. Slike planter kan dyrkes fram med redusert bruke av kjemikalier - noe som er svært viktige for en mer miljøvennlig dyrking.

In 1955 the potato cyst nematode (PCN) was recorded for the first time in Norway. This detection resulted in extensive surveys and measures were implemented based on the statutory regulation of 1916. The first statutory regulation for PCN was put in power in 1956, and later amended in several occasions. These regulations prohibit the introduction and spread of PCN with soil and plant materials. Early control strategies included the use of chemical fumigants and resistant potato cultivars in infested fields, and surveys detected new infestations which were placed under quarantine regulations. The recognition of G. rostochiensis and G. pallida, their pathotypes enabled a more precise use of resistant cultivars. Commercial chemical fumigants, organophosphates or carbamate nematicides have not been used in Norway since the early 1970s. Today, non-virulent G. rostochiensis is managed by crop rotation, while infestations by G. pallida or virulent G. rostochiensis results in at least 40-years ban for growing potato. Most Norwegian potato cultivars have the resistance genes, Gro-1 (H1) from Solanum tuberosum ssp. andigena. During the preceding decades great emphasis has been placed on documenting freedom from PCN in the production of certified seed potatoes, certified seed potato are used in combination with crop rotations using non-host crops, alternating susceptible and resistant cultivars. These are important control measures, but not easy to implement in Norway due to restricted acreage suitable for long rotations. The safe use of resistant potato cultivars requires a better knowledge on the presence of species and pathotypes in potato fields. In order to improve our information of the occurrence of PCN a new national survey program for the principal potato districts has started. These surveys will complemented by information generated from a new research project dealing with: studies of the virulence of selected PCN populations, decline rates of nematode field population densities and infection potential over time of populations from fields placed under quarantine regulations. studies on the occurrence and pathogenicity of microbial antagonistic parasitic on PCN, and their potential of future management of PCN, the safe use of early potato cultivars as a practical control method, and the potential for using Solanum sisymbriifolium as a trap crop, distinguish the degree of resistance of selected potato varieties available on the Norwegian market, and initial studies of the PCN-Potato-Pathosystem. These expected results of this project possibly will improve the management of PCN, and may alleviate present regulatory restrictions.
