This IPPC guide provides information to support the establishment, operation and maintenance of diagnostic laboratories and services in order to support national phytosanitary systems.

USDA's phytosanitary early-warning system, collecting and distributing new information on exotic plant pests.

The Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment website will help everyone better understand their role in keeping Australia safe from pests and diseases. This site will continue to evolve and grow to support people’s biosecurity information needs.

The Biosecurity Portal provides ready access to information about biosecurity surveillance, diagnostics, training, technical information, tools, national policies and strategies, and legislation to plant health professionals and stakeholders across government, industry and the community. The vision for the Portal is to integrate biosecurity activities, scientific capabilities and analysis across the biosecurity continuum

Biosecurity plans (BPs) set out an agreed range of biosecurity activities to mitigate risks from exotic plant pests to particular industries.

DP 24: Tomato spotted wilt virus, Impatiens necrotic spot virus and Watermelon silver mottle virus

DP 17: Aphelenchoides besseyi, Aphelenchoides fragariae and Aphelenchoides ritzemabosi

This practical guide is intended to be a tool for integrated pest management. Originally designed for Khmer-speaking farmers in Australia and Cambodia, this guide will help students, extension officers and farm advisers, in Australia, Cambodia, and in countries facing similar challenges, grow healthy tomatoes, capsicums, chillies and eggplants. It identifies the major insect pests, beneficial organisms, diseases, and nutritional and climatic disorders which affect these crops.
