Since its introduction from South‐east Asia into several western European countries, chrysanthemum white rust ( Puccinia horiana ) has become a serious problem for chrysanthemum growers. This rust is easily spread, by spores and infected plant material, and chemical control is laborious. Some EPPO countries are still able to prevent its establishment. Other EPPO countries, with a ← settled → white rust condition, have developed an inspection system which enables them to keep the disease at a low level. The approach in both situations is discussed.
