O presente estudo objetivou avaliar o efeito da temperatura (15, 20, 25 e 30ºC), do período de molhamento foliar (0, 6, 12 e 24 h), de épocas (setembro, outubro, novembro e dezembro) e métodos de plantio (semeadura direta e transplantio de mudas), na intensidade da seca da haste (Botrytis cinerea) do hibisco (Hibiscus sabdariffa). As variáveis ambientais foram avaliadas em condições controladas com inoculação a...
O progresso da seca da haste em hibisco foi estudado em quatro épocas e dois métodos de plantio. O delineamento experimental foi em blocos ao acaso, com quatro repetições e os oito tratamentos foram dispostos em esquema fatorial 4 (épocas de plantio) x 2 (métodos de plantio), sendo: semeadura direta em 05/02/03, 06/03/03, 05/04/03 e 15/05/03; transplantio de mudas em 24/12/02, 25/01/03, 24/02/03 e 25/03/03. Ime...
Rust is the most devastating disease of coffee. The rust intensity is affected by water supply and nutritional balance of plants. Thus the aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of rust in coffee plantations with different management of irrigation and phosphorus fertilization. The study was carried out in Lavras-MG, with coffee cultivar MGS Crossing. Evaluations of the disease were carried out from Mar...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the toxicity in coffee seedlings caused by mineral oil, vegetable and foliar fertilizer, applied in different radiation intensities. In the first experiment not observed symptoms of phytotoxicity in the control plants and sprayed with foliar fertilizer. Two experiments to study the phytotoxic action of oils and foliar fertilizers were performed. The first was evaluate...
Phoma leaf spot is a major disease of coffee plants in regions with specific conditions of temperature and humidity. Despite the importance of environmental variables for disease progression, so far they have been poorly understood. Thus, we assessed the effect of different temperatures (15, 20, 25 and 30 oC) on mycelial growth, production and germination of conidia of Phoma tarda; and the same effect of temper...
A temperatura é importante para estudos com Rhizoctonia solani por ser um patógeno cosmopolita e polífago. Nas temperaturas adequadas o patógeno pode ser favorecido, o qual obtém sucesso no processo doença. Já em temperaturas inadequadas, o seu crescimento e desenvolvimento pode ser retardado. O objetivo foi avaliar a influência da temperatura no crescimento micelial, na produção de escleródios e na patogenicid...
A espécie Rhizoctonia solani é um patógeno importante na cultura do algodão associada a doenças conhecidas como tombamento e mela. A variabilidade entre os isolados são extremamente importantes, porque existem diferenças entre os grupos de anastomose, tomadas como aqueles isolados capazes de trocar informações genéticas entre si. A caracterização morfológica, quando confirmada pela a caracterização genética for...
The stain brown eye is an endemic disease in Brazil. There are few published studies on this disease because of the difficulty of isolation and production of the fungus Cercospora coffeicola. This work aims to publicize this isolation technique developed and used in UFLA called Pipette Technique. Through this already over 70 isolates were obtained for future studies of the etiologic agent of this important dise...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of essential oils derived from Hyptis marrubioides, Aloysia gratissima and Cordia verbenacea for controlling Asian soybean rust. The inhibitory activities of the essential oils (applied in a concentration range of 0.05 - 2%) on the germination of Phakopsora pachyrhizi urediniospores were investigated using in vitro assays. The curative and eradicating properti...
The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of calcium silicate and copper sulfate on anthracnose intensity and nutrition of bean plants. The experiment was conducted using an experimental design in randomized blocks following a 4 x 4 factorial arrangement, (four levels of calcium silicate and four levels of copper sulfate) and two additional treatments (plants without inoculation and plants sprinkled...
