Phytophthora Austrocedri Confirmed Infection Sites GB 10K Grid

The dataset identifies confirmed infections of Phytophthora austrocedri in Great Britain.

P. austrocedri is a species of Phytophthora that was only recently ‘described’ (in 2007), although it is thought to have been present in Argentina and Chile for at least 50 years. The recent discoveries of the pathogen are a concern because of the often fatal nature of infection of the host plant, and because the recent findings of P. austrocedri in the UK are the first confirmed findings of this pathogen in the UK. The current reported distribution of P. austrocedri is limited to Argentina, Chile and the recent findings in the UK. It is not known how the pathogen entered the UK. Scientists believe it is spread by water, infected plant material and contaminated soil, making it difficult to control.
The dataset identified confirmed infections in England. Management decisions are taken on a case-by-case basis according to the specific circumstances of the findings. Eradication is the objective where feasible, but in some cases this will not be practicable, so containment is likely to be the goal.

本数据集旨在识别大不列颠地区确认的Phytophthora austrocedri感染病例。Phytophthora austrocedri是一种Phytophthora属的物种，尽管该物种于2007年才被正式描述（描述），但据信它已在阿根廷和智利存在至少50年。近期对该病原体的发现引起了关注，原因在于其感染宿主植物时往往具有致命性，以及P. austrocedri在英国的发现是该病原体在英国的首次确认记录。目前P. austrocedri的报告分布仅限于阿根廷、智利以及最近在英国的发现。病原体如何进入英国尚不清楚。科学家们认为病原体通过水、感染植物材料和受污染的土壤传播，这使得其控制变得困难。数据集识别了英格兰的确认感染病例。管理决策根据发现的特定情况逐案制定。在可行的情况下，目标是根除，但在某些情况下，这可能并不实际，因此控制可能是目标。计数 - 网格方格内确认感染地点的数量
