Gonipterus platensis(GONPPL)

Hosts

Important note about the classification of host plants in GD:
Categories have been assigned by the EPPO Secretariat on the basis of available data at the time of entry. They correspond to a qualitative evaluation of the importance of the host plant for the pest concerned and remain indicative only.
Further explanation of categories is available in the guide.
Organism Type
Eucalyptus globulus (EUCGL) Major host

------- Highly susceptible host.
Eucalyptus grandis (EUCGD) Major host

------- During experiments using leaves of Eucalyptus camaldulensis, E. grandis, E. urophylla, the latter was found to be the most suitable host for G. platensis survival, development and reproduction while E. grandis and E. camaldulensis were the least suitable.
