Radopholus similis

Summary of the Express Pest Risk Analysis for Radopholus similis (Cobb, 1893) Thorne, 1949

PRA area: Poland

Describe the endangered area: Radopholus similis is native to a wide range of tropical and subtropical regions. Considering climatic conditions in PRA area, it is unlikely that pest will be able to establish in field-crops. Pest probably will not be able to survive in temperature under 0℃. Only greenhouse crops may be endangered in case of pest occurence in PRA area. Nematoda may cause losses in pot plants in flats, because of suitable conditions

Main conclusions:

Climatic conditions in PRA area are very different from those in pest native regions.

Given the above, R. similis poses no risk to field-crops. Pest may cause losses only in heating greenhouses.
