(Editora da Universidade Estadual de Maringá - EDUEM, 2025-06-02) Senra, João Felipe de Brites; Silva, Viviane Alexia Correia; Esposti, Marlon Dutra Degli; Ferreira, Adésio; Milheiros, Idalina Sturião; Ramos, Isabela Bolari; Oliveira, Rosana Gomes de; Benevenute, Lorran Marques
The aim of this study was to select Coffea canephora genotypes from the seminal propagation variety ‘ES8152’ with different harvest times. The experiment was conducted using a Federer augmented block design with three repetitions, evaluating 175 genotypes and four clonal witnesses in two harvests (2022 and 2023), and 20 morphoagronomic characteristics were evaluated. The data were analyzed using the REML/BLUP methodology with the Selegen software, where the variance components and genetic values were estimated. The selection was performed using the Mulamba-Rank index. The bottom sieve (BS) and top sieve (TS) characteristics had high heritability (0.5779 and 0.6694, respectively) and accuracy (0.7602 and 0.8182, respectively). TS also showed high repeatability (0.6827). The genotypic effects were significant at 1% level for days for fruit ripening, fruit size, vegetative vigor, yield per plant, TS, and BS; at 5% level for general scale; and at 10% level for incidence of rust, degree of inclination, and percentage of fruit float. It was possible to distinguish 20 superior genotypes in terms of maturation, among which the selection gains for the genotypic clusters were 46.14, 45.92 and 41.56% for indefinite, early, and late maturation, respectively, by applying a selection intensity of 11.43%. Genotypes 25, 26, 73, 93, and 100 could be used for early maturing varieties, whereas genotypes 155 and 189 could be used for late-maturing varieties. The most promising genotypes for composing a variety, regardless of the maturation period, were 20, 39, 90, 112, and 190, as these were among the five best genotypes ranked in the three selection processes, demonstrating that they added superior desired morphoagronomic characteristics. It is concluded that there is genetic variability among the 175 genotypes evaluated, as well as significant genetic effects to be explored in the pool gene of individuals originating from the 'ES8152' variety.

Drought is an environmental condition that compromises the development of coffee plants. New coffee genotypes that are resistant to drought must be selected quickly and practically. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the resistance of five genotypes of Coffea arabica, including three new genotypes with introgression of genes from Coffea racemosa (H0113-40-26-1, H0113-40-26-19, and H0113-40-26-10), to water restriction and relate the intensity of plant wilting with physiological responses and nutrient accumulation. The experiment was conducted using 45 coffee seedlings obtained from seeds with six pairs of leaves cultivated in tubes. Some seedlings were subjected to two water restriction periods, whereas the remainder were kept under irrigation. The photosynthesis rate, transpiration rate, and wilting intensity were evaluated after each restriction period. Nutrient content was also evaluated after two periods of water restriction. The evaluation of wilting intensity corroborated the physiological parameters. There was a reduction in photosynthesis and transpiration rates under water restriction and nutrient accumulation in coffee seedlings H0113-40-26-1, H0113-40-26-19, and H0113-40-26-10 increased under these conditions. C. arabica genotypes carrying the genes of C. racemosa presented good drought resistance, with H0113-40-26-10 being the most resistant and showing the lowest wilt intensity.
Pseudomonas coronafaciens pv. garcae and P. amygdali pv. tabaci isolated from coffee plants cause diseases in different species
(Editora UFLA, 2025-06-16) Raimundi, Melina Korres; Souza, Ricardo Magela de; Guimarães, Sarah da Silva Costa; Alvarenga, Ariane de Souza; Ribeiro, Daniel Henrique; Resende, Mário Lúcio Vilela
Bacterial halo blight and bacterial leaf spot have similar symptoms in coffee plants, and the etiological agents Pseudomonas coronafaciens pv. garcae (Pcg) and P. amygdali pv. tabaci (Pat) have very similar colony morphologies and biochemical characterizations, which makes it difficult to provide a correct diagnosis. To date, Coffea arabica is the only known natural host of Pcg, while Pat affects a wide range of host plants. However, no studies have yet been conducted to test the pathogenicity of Pcg strains in Pat hosts or Pat strains from different hosts in coffee plants. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the virulence level among Pcg strains and to perform cross-inoculation tests to confirm the hosts specificity for Pcg and Pat. In the virulence tests, there was variation in aggressiveness among Pcg strains. The reference isolate (CFBP 1634) and seven Pcg strains considered more aggressive were selected for cross-inoculation testing on different Pat hosts. All the Pat strains, regardless of the host of origin, caused disease in the coffee seedlings and Pcg strains caused disease in Phaseolus vulgaris, Cucumis sativus, Carica papaya, Aster sp., Coffea arabica, Celosia plumosa and Desmodium incanum. Therefore, there is no host specificity for Pcg and Pat, using artificial inoculation. These results are important for the beginning of the knowledge of the host range of Pcg and may contribute to the development of strategies to manage the disease.

Mechanized harvesting of coffee plantations in Minas Gerais has grown rapidly due to its benefits, including increased productivity and reduced labor costs. However, these benefits can only be realized if the harvesting process is properly adjusted to align with the capabilities of the harvesting machine and the specific conditions of the crop field. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of harvester displacement speed and rod vibration frequency on harvesting efficiency and coffee fruit yield. A 3 × 3 factorial design was employed, testing three displacement speeds (600, 800, and 1000 m·h⁻¹) and three vibration frequencies (15, 16.7, and 18.3 Hz). Parameters of the crop were assessed prior to the mechanized harvesting process, including the load of hanging fruits, fruit ripeness, and fallen fruits on the ground. Immediately after the harvest, the following parameters were evaluated: (i) harvesting efficiency, (ii) volume of harvested coffee fruits, and (iii) volume of fallen coffee fruits during mechanized harvesting process. Each treatment combination was tested on 12 plots, and data were analyzed using ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test for pairwise comparisons. Results showed that vibration frequency significantly affected both harvested volume and fruit loss, with notable differences between frequencies. The highest harvesting efficiency was achieved at a displacement speed of 1000 m·h⁻¹, while 600 m·h⁻¹ provided greater consistency across frequencies. These findings highlight the critical role of optimizing speed and vibration parameters to enhance mechanized harvesting efficiency and minimize fruit losses, offering valuable insights for improving coffee production practices globally.

(Editora UFLA, 2025-05-07) Utama, Qabul Dinanta; Zainuri; Paramartha, Dewa Nyoman Adi; Nofrida, Rini; Anggraeni, Ines Marisya Dwi; Pertiwi, Made Gendis Putri; Rahayu, Novia; Afriansyah, Dilla; Nurhasyah
Decaffeination is an innovative process in coffee processing to reduce caffeine content while maintaining coffee quality. This study aimed to observe the effect of various concentrations of ethyl acetate solvent on the decaffeination process of Robusta (Coffea canephora) from Lombok and its impact on coffee quality. The decaffeination process was carried out by soaking coffee beans at 50oC for 36 hours with the observed parameters consisting of water content, protein content, ash content, pH, total titratable acidity, and caffeine content. Data were analyzed using ANOVA to see the significance between treatments. The results of this study showed that different concentrations of ethyl acetate had a significant effect on the parameters of water content, protein content, total titratable acidity and protein content while not significant for ash content and pH. A 10% ethyl acetate concentration was identified as the most effective treatment, reducing caffeine content to 0.36%, while preserving protein content (10.47%), total titratable acidity (2.13%),
moisture content (9.56%), ash content (3.31%), and pH (5.84). The results of this study indicate that the potential use of ethyl acetate as a solvent in the decaffeination process can provide an alternative added value to coffee products.
