Time to tame our wild kiwifruit 是时候驯服我们的野生猕猴桃了
Here’s a quick public service announcement to be aware of a rampant fruity friend – and it may just protect our horticulture crops from another kind of PSA – Pseudomonas syringae pv. Actinidiae, or Kiwifruit Vine Canker.
Wild kiwifruit vines are listed as an Eradication Pest Plant in our Tasman-Nelson Regional Pest Management Plan.

这里有一个快速的公共服务公告，提醒大家注意一个猖獗的水果朋友——它可能只是保护我们的园艺作物免受另一种PSA——丁香假单胞菌的侵害。猕猴桃科或猕猴桃藤溃疡病。
野生猕猴桃藤在我们的塔斯曼-纳尔逊地区害虫管理计划中被列为根除害虫植物。
Kiwifruit can be spread into forests by birds carrying seeds from unmanaged or abandoned orchards, or wild (self-propagated) vines. Vines can smother native trees and shrubs and degrade plantation forests.
Currently in the North Island, vines have become a reservoir for organisms that are a threat to kiwifruit production, such as PSA, a disease of kiwifruit, that has resulted in devastating losses for growers.

猕猴桃可以通过携带来自无人管理或废弃果园或野生（自繁殖）藤蔓的种子的鸟类传播到森林中。藤蔓会窒息当地的树木和灌木，使人工林退化。
目前，在北岛，葡萄藤已成为威胁猕猴桃生产的生物的宿主，如PSA，这是一种猕猴桃疾病，给种植者造成了毁灭性的损失。

We currently have one variety of PSA present in New Zealand. However, there are other strains that we’re trying to keep out.
If PSA ever arrives in the South Island, we will need to know where all unmanaged or wild kiwifruit vines are located.
我们目前在新西兰有一种PSA。然而，我们正努力避免其他压力。
如果PSA到达南岛，我们需要知道所有未管理或野生猕猴桃藤的位置。

During autumn, large, rounded kiwifruit leaves will turn yellow, making them obvious in the canopy. They also have prominent vine sprouts, sticking out of tree canopies, and fruit may be evident.
If you have seen any wild kiwifruit vines, please help us by calling 03 543 8400 and letting us know where you have seen them. We will then add these sites to our database, for future destruction.
秋天，大而圆的猕猴桃叶子会变黄，在树冠上很明显。它们还有突出的藤蔓芽，从树冠中伸出，果实可能很明显。
如果您看到任何野生猕猴桃藤，请致电03 543 8400告诉我们您在哪里看到的。然后，我们将把这些网站添加到我们的数据库中，以便将来销毁。
