Sažetak
Early warning against potentially harmful organisms of woody plant species is important for the prevention of pest introduction via the international trade in live plants. Recent studies of sentinel plants illustrate that this can be achieved by sampling woody plants in exporting countries. However, it is unclear where sentinel plants can best be located, and how many samples are required for the detection of pest risk or for an assessment of the diversity of organisms associated with the target plant species. It is also unclear when sampling should take place for the optimal detection of such organisms. The occurrence of organisms associated with a woody plant species is affected by global, regional and local factors, including climate or seasons, elevation, soil type, site management and plant genetic diversity. Therefore, such factors should be considered when deciding on the sampling design for early detection of harmful organisms. However, it is unknown which factors are most influential for the selection of locations and number of units for sampling for species diversity. We explored the importance of selected geographic and temporal factors, as well as costs for the design for sampling of organisms associated with any woody plant species using data from four case studies. Based on these case studies, we propose a generic scheme for the identification of optimal sampling locations and periods for potential harmful organisms. The scheme can be used irrespective of the targeted plant species or importing country.
