Finds Economic Impact of Laurel Wilt Disease Could
be "Catastrophic" (Sep 9, 2010)
American Society for Horticultural Science.
Scientists have found that the invasive fungus called laurel
wilt disease and the redbay ambrosia beetle, which carries laurel wilt, represent
a significant economic threat to Florida's avocado industry. According to the
report Potential
Economic Impact of Laurel Wilt Disease on the Florida Avocado Industry published
in HortTechnology, direct losses from the invasion could range from
$183 million to a remarkable high of $356 million.

A new report finds that invasive species such as the emerald ash borer and zebra mussel already are causing significant damage in the state of Ohio. While the total cost of these non-native species is currently estimated at hundreds of millions of dollars a year, preventive legislation could significantly limit their economic and environmental impact.
