GAP: Good Agricultural Practice; OECD: Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development; MRL: maximum residue level.

a

NEU: Outdoor trials conducted in northern Europe, SEU: Outdoor trials conducted in southern Europe, Indoor: indoor EU trials or Country code: if non‐EU trials.

b

Mo: residue level according to the monitoring residue definition.

RA: residue level according to the residue definition for risk assessment. A conversion factor of 2 was used to express the concentrations of phthalimide as folpet equivalents (MW folpet/MW phthalimide = 296.546/147.133).

c

Highest residue according to the residue definition for monitoring.

d

Supervised trials median residue according to the residue definition for monitoring.

e

Conversion factor to recalculate residues according to the residue definition for monitoring to the residue definition for risk assessment.
