Following a request from the European Commission, the Panel on Plant Health was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on a pest risk assessment for Tomato spotted wilt virus （TSWV）， including the identification and evaluation of risk reduction options.
After consideration of the evidence, the Panel reached the following conclusions:
With regard to the assessment of the risk to plant health of Tomato spotted wilt virus （TSWV） for the EU territory:
Two pathways have been identified for TSWV potential entry in the risk assessment area. The plant products not intended for planting pathway is considered to be of minor significance, based mainly on the unlikely probability of transfer of the pathogen to a host, although a high level of uncertainty applies to this assessment owing to the lack of precise information on some key points. The plants for planting pathway is identified as the most relevant pathway since in this case the pathogen is directly transported along the pathway and can be transferred to a new host if a vector is present. The survival during transport is assessed as very likely with low uncertainty and survival to management procedures is assessed as moderately likely to likely for most Member States and as unlikely to moderately likely for Finland and Sweden, which are covered by a protected zone status. All these various ratings carry a medium level of uncertainty. For this pathway, the probability of association of the pest at origin is assessed as moderately likely to likely, with medium uncertainty. Overall, the probability of entry through the plants for planting pathway is rated as likely with medium uncertainty for most Member States （under the Annex IIAII provisions of Council Directive 2000/29/EC） but as unlikely with medium uncertainty for Finland and Sweden, being a protected zone （under Annex IB of Council Directive 2000/29/EC）。
