Description: Legislative action at both the European Union (E.U.) and United Kingdom (U.K.) national level has been taken in response to outbreaks of Phytophthora ramorum and, more recently, Phytophthora kernoviae. Measures are aimed at identifying and preventing the movement of infected nursery stock and the containment and eradication of outbreaks at nurseries or in established plantings such as historic gardens and public parks. In addition, legislation relating to a Phytophthora kernoviae Management Zone has been introduced in the U.K.
Key Words: Phytophthora ramorum, kernoviae, E.U. Plant Health Directive
