Item Factors influencing the performance of phosphites on the control of coffee leaf rust(Instituto Agronômico (IAC), 2021) Honorato Júnior, Jaime; Debona, Daniel; Zambolim, Laércio; Rodrigues, Fabrício ÁvilaThis study investigated the effect of different phosphites on the control of coffee leaf rust (CLR) caused by Hemileia vastatrix, considered the major disease affecting coffee yield worldwide. Three-month-old coffee plants were sprayed with two doses each of the phosphite solutions (standard and double), as follows: K (40% P2O5; 1.5 and 3 mL·L-1), K (30% P2O5; 3 and 6 mL·L-1), Cu (2.5 and 5 mL·L- 1), Mn+Zn (3 and 6 mL·L-1) and Na (3 and 6 mL·L-1) 24 h before being inoculated with H. vastatrix. Leaves were not washed or washed with deionized water after the foliar phosphites spray. Plants sprayed with water served as the control treatment. Inoculation was performed on the abaxial side of the first pair of expanded leaves using a camel hairbrush with a suspension of urediniospores (1 mg per leaf). All phosphites applied at the standard doses (from 1.5 to 3 mL·L-1) reduced the total number of pustules (TNP) per leaf by 28-69% regardless of washing treatment. The biggest reductions were observed for Cu phosphite, which decreased the TNP per leaf by 60 and 69% without and with leaf washing, respectively. A similar trend was observed when the double doses of phosphites (from 3 to 6 mL·L-1) were used, though Na phosphite without leaf washing and Mn/Zn phosphite without and with leaf washing were not efficient to reduce the TNP per leaf. Without leaf washing, only Cu and Na phosphites decreased CLR severity at the standard doses (53-61%), whereas all phosphites, except the Mn/ Zn phosphite, reduced CLR severity at the double dose. The CLR severity was decreased using K 30%, K 40% and Cu phosphites When applied at the standard doses with leaf washing (41-59%). With double doses, only Cu and Na phosphites decreased CLR severity by 55% for both treatments. In conclusion, the efficiency of the phosphites for CLR control varied according to the accompanying cation, dose and washing conditions. The Cu phosphite resulted in the best CLR control regardless of the dose used and the washing conditions.Item Effects of silicon on the penetration and reproduction events of Meloidogyne exigua on coffee roots(Instituto Agronômico (IAC), 2015-04) Silva, Rodrigo Vieira; Oliveira, Rosângela D’Arc de Lima; Ferreira, Patrícia da Silva; Castro, Douglas Barbosa; Rodrigues, Fabrício ÁvilaConsidering that the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne exigua has caused great yield losses to coffee production in Brazil, this study aimed to determine whether the penetration and the reproduction events of this nematode on the roots of plants from two coffee cultivars with different levels of basal resistance to this nematode could be affected by silicon (Si). Coffee plants from the cultivars Catuaí and IAPAR 59, which are susceptible and resistant, respectively, to M. exigua, were grown in pots containing Si-deficient soil that was amended with either calcium silicate (+Si) or calcium carbonate (–Si). The Si concentration on the root tissue significantly increased by 159 and 97% for the +Si plants from the cultivars Catuaí and IAPAR 59, respectively, compared to the –Si plants of these cultivars. The population of M. exigua, the number of galls and the number of eggs were significantly reduced on the roots of the +Si plants of the cultivars Catuaí and IAPAR 59 compared to the –Si plants of these cultivars. It was concluded that the development and reproduction events of M. exigua were negatively impacted on the roots of coffee plants supplied with Si.
