| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the World Plant Pathogen Database (WPPD) which is an international computerized information network to help define the risks and to "give the alert" to disease threats. It utilizes the Pest Risk Assessment (PRA) to evaluate pest information. WPPD provides a core of biological data as well as geographically oriented biological data for interpretation in PRA. WPPD is compatible with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) pest databases, such as the National Pesticide Information Retrieval System, and tiwh NAPIS through the EPA pest and plant codes. Data pertaining to threatening plant diseases may be used by EPA and APHIS through common codes. WPPD is proposed to operate as a functional network of expertise and data exchange. The distributed atabase would require an MS-DOS/PC-DOS personal computer equipped with a hard disk with a minimum of 20 megabytes of storage. |
