List of non-EU viruses and viroids of Cydonia Mill., Fragaria L., Malus Mill., Prunus L., Pyrus L., Ribes L., Rubus L. and Vitis L.

The Panel on Plant Health performed a listing of non-EU viruses and viroids (reported hereinafter as viruses) of Cydonia Mill., Fragaria L., Malus Mill., Prunus L., Pyrus L., Ribes L., Rubus L. and Vitis L. A systematic literature review identified 197 viruses infecting one or more of the host genera under consideration. Viruses were allocated into three categories (i) 86 non-EU viruses, known to occur only outside the EU or having only limited presence in the EU (i.e. reported in only one or few Member States (MSs), known to have restricted distribution, outbreaks), (ii) 97 viruses excluded at this stage from further categorisation efforts because they have significant presence in the EU (i.e. only reported so far from the EU or known to occur or be widespread in some MSs or frequently reported in the EU), (iii) 14 viruses with undetermined standing for which available information did not readily allow to allocate to one or the other of the two above groups. Comments provided by MSs during consultation phases were integrated in the opinion. The main knowledge gaps and uncertainties of this listing concern (i) the geographic distribution and prevalence of the viruses analysed, in particular when they were recently described; (ii) the taxonomy and biological status of a number of poorly characterised viruses; (iii) the host status of particular plant genera in relation to some viruses. The viruses considered as non-EU and those with undetermined standing will be categorised in the next steps to answer a specific mandate from the Commission to develop pest categorisations for non-EU viruses. This list does not imply a prejudice on future needs for a pest categorisation for other viruses which are excluded from the current categorisation efforts.

Introduction

Background and Terms of Reference as provided by the requestor

Background

Council Directive 2000/29/EC1 on protective measures against the introduction into the Community of organisms harmful to plants or plant products and against their spread within the Community establishes the present European Union plant health regime. The Directive lays down the phytosanitary provisions and the control checks to be carried out at the place of origin on plants and plant products destined for the Union or to be moved within the Union. In the Directive's 2000/29/EC annexes, the list of harmful organisms (pests) whose introduction into or spread within the Union is prohibited, is detailed together with specific requirements for import or internal movement.

Following the evaluation of the plant health regime, the new basic plant health law, Regulation (EU) 2016/20312 on protective measures against pests of plants, was adopted on 26 October 2016 and will apply from 14 December 2019 onwards, repealing Directive 2000/29/EC. In line with the principles of the above mentioned legislation and the follow‐up work of the secondary legislation for the listing of EU regulated pests, EFSA is requested to provide pest categorizations of the harmful organisms included in the annexes of Directive 2000/29/EC, in the cases where recent pest risk assessment/pest categorisation is not available.

Terms of Reference

EFSA is requested, pursuant to Article 22(5.b) and Article 29(1) of Regulation (EC) No 178/20023, to provide scientific opinion in the field of plant health.

EFSA is requested to prepare and deliver a pest categorisation (step 1 analysis) for each of the regulated pests included in the appendices of the annex to this mandate. The methodology and template of pest categorisation have already been developed in past mandates for the organisms listed in Annex II Part A Section II of Directive 2000/29/EC. The same methodology and outcome is expected for this work as well.

The list of the harmful organisms included in the annex to this mandate comprises 133 harmful organisms or groups. A pest categorisation is expected for these 133 pests or groups and the delivery of the work would be stepwise at regular intervals through the year as detailed below. First priority covers the harmful organisms included in Appendix 1, comprising pests from Annex II Part A Section I and Annex II Part B of Directive 2000/29/EC. The delivery of all pest categorisations for the pests included in Appendix 1 is June 2018. The second priority is the pests included in Appendix 2, comprising the group of Cicadellidae (non‐EU) known to be vector of Pierce's disease (caused by Xylella fastidiosa), the group of Tephritidae (non‐EU), the group of potato viruses and virus‐like organisms, the group of viruses and virus‐like organisms of Cydonia Mill., Fragaria L., Malus Mill., Prunus L., Pyrus L., Ribes L., Rubus L. and Vitis L. and the group of Margarodes (non‐EU species). The delivery of all pest categorisations for the pests included in Appendix 2 is end 2019. The pests included in Appendix 3 cover pests of Annex I part A section I and all pests categorisations should be delivered by end 2020.

For the above mentioned groups, each covering a large number of pests, the pest categorisation will be performed for the group and not the individual harmful organisms listed under “such as” notation in the Annexes of the Directive 2000/29/EC. The criteria to be taken particularly under consideration for these cases, is the analysis of host pest combination, investigation of pathways, the damages occurring and the relevant impact.

Finally, as indicated in the text above, all references to ‘non‐European’ should be avoided and replaced by ‘non‐EU’ and refer to all territories with exception of the Union territories as defined in Article 1 point 3 of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031.

Terms of Reference: Appendix 2

List of harmful organisms for which pest categorisation is requested per group. The list below follows the categorisation included in the annexes of Directive 2000/29/EC.

Terms of Reference: Appendix 3

List of harmful organisms for which pest categorisation is requested. The list below follows the annexes of Directive 2000/29/EC.

Interpretation of the Terms of Reference

This scientific opinion presents the list of non‐EU viruses and viroids of Cydonia Mill., Fragaria L., Malus Mill., Prunus L., Pyrus L., Ribes L., Rubus L. and Vitis L., for which the Panel will conduct the pest categorisation. This list is based on information collected from databases up to 19 March 2018.

Non‐EU viruses and virus‐like organisms of Cydonia Mill., Fragaria L., Malus Mill., Prunus L., Pyrus L., Ribes L., Rubus L. and Vitis L. are pests listed in the Appendices to the Terms of Reference (ToR) to be subject to pest categorisation to determine whether they fulfil the criteria of quarantine pests or those of regulated non‐quarantine pests for the area of the EU excluding Ceuta, Melilla and the outermost regions of Member States (MSs) referred to in Article 355(1) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU), other than Madeira and the Azores.

According to the ToR, EFSA is asked to develop pest categorisations for the non‐EU viruses and viroids of Cydonia Mill., Fragaria L., Malus Mill., Prunus L., Pyrus L., Ribes L., Rubus L. and Vitis L., the group of plants herein called host plants. As a first step towards this goal, the Panel made a list of non‐EU viruses and viroids (viruses and viroids, although different biological categories, are summarised together as ‘viruses’ in the rest of this opinion) infecting the host plants. In the process, three groups of viruses were distinguished: non‐EU viruses, viruses with significant presence in the EU (known to occur in several MSs, frequently reported in the EU, widespread in several MSs) or so far reported only from the EU, and viruses with undetermined standing for which available information did not readily allow to allocate to one or the other of the two above groups. A non‐EU virus is defined by its geographical origin outside of the EU territory. As such, viruses not reported from the EU and occurring only outside of the EU territory are considered as non‐EU viruses. Likewise, viruses occurring outside the EU and having only a limited presence in the EU (reported in only one or few MSs, with restricted distribution, outbreaks) are also considered as non‐EU.

This opinion provides the methodology and results for this classification which precedes but does not prejudice the actual pest categorisation linked with the present mandate. This means that the Panel will then perform pest categorisations for the non‐EU viruses and for those with undetermined standing. The viruses with significant presence in the EU or so far reported only from the EU will be also listed, but they will be excluded from the current categorisation efforts. The Commission at any time may present a request to EFSA to categorise some or all the viruses excluded from the current EFSA categorisation.

In this opinion, to capture the broadest possible range of viruses, poorly characterised ones for which very partial molecular or biological data is available were also considered.

Virus‐like diseases of unknown aetiology or diseases caused by phytoplasmas and other graft‐transmissible bacteria are not addressed in this opinion.

Data and methodologies

Data

Literature search

The literature considered to generate the list of viruses infecting Cydonia Mill., Fragaria L., Malus Mill., Prunus L., Pyrus L., Ribes L., Rubus L. and Vitis L., and to fill in the extraction table on their distribution was obtained from authoritative books/compendia (Hadidi et al., 2011, 2017a,b; Meng et al., 2017), reviews (Martin and Tzanetakis, 2006; Martin et al., 2013; Martelli, 2014; Rubio et al., 2017), expert knowledge and extensive literature searches performed in the ISI Web of Science bibliographic database (last access 19th of March 2018). For each plant genus, searches in ISI Web of Science were performed using as key words virus/viroid combined with the scientific name of the genus OR the common name(s) of the crops. Therefore, for each plant genus, searches in ISI Web of Science were performed according to the following strategy:

TS=((virus* OR viroid*) AND (latin name of the host genus ‐ i.e. Vitis ‐ OR common name in English of the crop ‐ i.e. grapevine ‐)

When the number of gathered references was lower than 1,000 (i.e. in the case of Cydonia Mill. and Ribes L.), all the references were screened by title and, if needed, by abstract with the specific objective of selecting those providing additional information regarding distribution and host range of viruses included in the list or novel viruses not included yet. When the number of gathered references was higher than 1,000 (i.e. in the case of Fragaria L., Malus Mill., Prunus L., Pyrus L., Rubus L. and Vitis L.) the search was restricted to cover the period from 2010 to 2018, as earlier references were felt sufficiently covered by the other sources and reference books. In addition, references gathered without any time limitation were further filtered using the following strings:

TS = (Next generation sequencing OR NGS OR highthroughput sequencing OR high‐throughput sequencing OR HTS)

and

TS = (first report OR disease note OR new host OR novel virus OR new virus)

which allow looking for novel viruses identified by high‐throughput sequencing (HTS) and expanding information on distribution by screening first reports of viruses/crop combinations in certain countries, respectively.

Extensive literature searches by using as keyword the name of a single viroid or virus were also performed when data gathered from the other sources were not available or not considered sufficient. Further references and information were obtained from experts and from citations within primary references.

Database search

Information on host(s) and distribution of viruses were retrieved from the European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organization (EPPO) Global Database (EPPO, 2017), the Centre for Agriculture and Biosciences International (CABI) and relevant publications.

Once the first listing of non‐EU viruses and viruses with undetermined standing was prepared, data on host range and geographic distribution was completed by further searches using the GenBank genetic sequence database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genbank/) (last access 19 March 2018), applying the following strategy:

Search for “virus name”;

Select the virus name within the “Results by taxon”;

Open the obtained list using the “GenBank format” option;

Search for “host” as keyword (host range completeness);

Search for “country” as keyword (country distribution completeness).

GenBank accessions referring to viruses from EU countries or hosts not included in the initial table were added.

Information on virus taxonomy was gathered from the “Virus Taxonomy: 2017 Release” (https://talk.ictvonline.org/taxonomy/), an updated official classification by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV). Information on the taxonomy of viruses not yet included in that ICTV classification was gathered from the primary literature source describing them.

Methodologies

A preliminary list of viruses infecting Cydonia Mill., Fragaria L., Malus Mill., Prunus L., Pyrus L., Ribes L., Rubus L. and Vitis L. was generated based on expert knowledge. The list was progressively implemented with information gathered from literature and database searches.

Collected information was used to fill an extraction table (Annex A) with data regarding taxonomy, geographical distribution and host range of each virus and key references and sources used to obtain that information. Taxonomy, distribution and host range are reported in the table using the following scheme:

taxonomy was reported according to ICTV; when the virus was not classified yet information on tentative classification was reported based on the original literature source in which the virus has been reported;

data on distribution and host range of viruses were first searched in the EPPO global database (EPPO, 2018) and in CABI crop protection compendium (CABI, 2018). Whenever conclusive information was not identified in the two databases or the information retrieved was at odds with expert knowledge, extensive literature searches according to the protocol reported in Section 2.1 were performed.

Extensive literature searches were carried out and when the information was sufficient to consider a virus as non‐EU or as having significant presence in the EU, literature searches were not further extended; as a consequence, the information provided here on virus distribution is not necessarily exhaustive.

With the advent of HTS technologies, new viruses infecting the genera under consideration are constantly published. Any virus described or published posterior to the last access of databases (19 March 2018) is not included in the present opinion and will not be included in further categorisation efforts.

Because only the non‐EU viruses and the viruses with undetermined standing will be subject to further categorisation efforts in the frame of the present mandate, it was decided to have consultation phases with MSs so that they could provide additional inputs if they felt necessary. The information provided by MSs was then considered by the Panel in order to reach a final listing of the non‐EU viruses and of the viruses with undetermined standing that will be further categorised. The viruses excluded from these two groups are therefore referred to in the present opinion as viruses excluded from further categorisation in the frame of the present mandate.

Listing of non‐EU viruses and viroids

For better clarity, the host groups under consideration in this opinion, Cydonia Mill., Fragaria L., Malus Mill., Prunus L., Pyrus L., Ribes L., Rubus L. and Vitis L. are hereinafter called host plants. Viruses and viroids, although different biological categories, are summarised as viruses.

The pathogens addressed either have narrow host ranges and are thus found only on one or more of the host genera addressed here or can infect a wider range of plant species.

Because viruses in general have RNA/DNA genomes distinct from their hosts, viral sequences can be identified from a global assessment of plant‐derived sequences using HTS approaches. Because these new methods have only been recently available, many new viruses have been reported from plant analyses that were not connected with disease studies. Furthermore, virus sequences have been reported from diseased plants but without demonstration of a causal role of the virus. In both cases, further biological or virus distribution data are generally missing/pending.

Viruses reported from the host plants under consideration have been first included in a master list (Annex A) and then grouped as follows.

Viruses considered as non‐EU

Viruses considered as non‐EU (Appendix A) correspond to two scenarios:

Viruses not known to be present in the EU,

Viruses known to be present outside the EU and with only limited presence (i.e. reported in only one or few MSs, known to have restricted distribution, outbreaks) in the EU.

Widely different amounts of information are available for these agents, from very well‐known viruses that cause well established diseases in their host plants and for which well‐known data set of biological data (host range, transmission), genome data and geographic distribution is available to very recently described viruses from HTS data, for which no information is available outside of sequence data.

Viruses excluded from further categorisation in the frame of the present mandate

Viruses excluded from further categorisation in the frame of the present mandate (Appendix B) correspond to two scenarios:

Viruses reported only from the EU,

Viruses known to be present outside the EU, but with a significant presence also in EU (known to occur in several MSs, frequently reported in the EU, widespread in some MSs).

It should be stressed that between relatively clear‐cut cases of widespread and very limited presence in the EU, a grey zone exists where it is difficult to decide whether an agent should be considered as non‐EU or not. The Panel tried to take into consideration such parameters as the number of EU MSs with known presence, the prevalence within individual MSs and prevalence outside the EU. However, information is frequently limited, severely complicating the assessment. In some cases, the Panel was unable to conclude and instead decided to include these viruses in a specific list of viruses with undetermined standing (see Section 3.3).

Variable amounts of information are available for viruses with a significant presence also in EU or reported only from the EU. However, this is less critical because these viruses will not be addressed in further categorisation efforts by EFSA according to the present mandate.

Viruses with undetermined standing

As outlined in Section 3.2, viruses with undetermined standing (Appendix C) correspond to situations for which, due to the limited information available and/or to the balanced distribution of the virus within and outside the EU, the Panel was unable to allocate the virus to the group of non‐EU viruses or to the group of viruses excluded from further categorisation in the frame of the present mandate.

These viruses with undetermined standing will be addressed in future categorisation effort by EFSA according to the present mandate.

Uncertainty

The geographic distribution and prevalence of the viruses analysed, in particular when they were recently described;

The taxonomy and biological status of a number of poorly characterised viruses. Viral sequences (HTS or partial) originating from the host under consideration may not represent true plant viruses or the virus may infect other organisms associated with the analysed plant such as endophytic fungi;

The host status of particular plant genera for some viruses. In some cases, viruses have been reported from the hosts under consideration only once and on poorly documented bases.

Conclusions

EFSA was requested by the European Commission to produce a pest categorisation of 133 harmful organisms or groups listed in annexes of Directive 2000/29/EC.

One of the groups for which the categorisation will be prepared is non‐EU viruses and virus‐like organisms of Cydonia Mill., Fragaria L., Malus Mill., Prunus L., Pyrus L., Ribes L., Rubus L. and Vitis L. As a first step, a systematic approach identified 197 viruses reported to naturally infect one or more of these genera. Among these viruses, based on information on virus distribution and prevalence both inside and outside EU, the Panel identified 86 non‐EU viruses, known to occur only outside the EU or having only limited presence in the EU, and 14 viruses with undetermined standing. These viruses will be further categorised in next steps. The remaining 97 viruses, which have a significant presence in the EU or so far reported only from the EU, will not be categorised in the frame of the current mandate. However, the Commission may, at any time, present a request to EFSA to categorise some or all the viruses excluded from the current categorisation.

The main knowledge gaps and uncertainties of this listing concern (i) the geographic distribution and prevalence of the viruses analysed, in particular when they were recently described; (ii) the taxonomy and biological status of a number of poorly characterised viruses; and (iii) the host status of particular plant genera in relation to some viruses.
