Descripción
The trade of plants and plant products has been the traditional target for phytosanitary measures by National Plant Protection Organizations (NPPOs). E-commerce is becoming increasignly common and presents another pathway by which many small and often uneasily recognizable consignments of plants and plant products move across international borders into countries and across continents. This 2012 paper presents preliminary findings of a desk study that explored the range of plant products being offered for sale over the internet and highlight some potential phytosanitray risks.
