| Solananum dulcamara was not found along irrigation canals or Nile branches. |
| However, the bacterium was isolated from Solanum dulcamara growing in the water system from which the infected potatoes were irrigated. |
| In spring 1996, a survey was initiated in all potato-growing areas to establish the extent of the contamination in surface waters and Solanum dulcamara. |
| First results have shown that in some places, surface waters and S. dulcamara plants were infested. |
| A monitoring programme was implemented on potatoes and Solanum dulcamara, and during the last four years the bacterium was not found again. |
| Insula dulcamara is to be set back, relieved of through traffic, and separated from the motorway by a line of trees. |
