Item Rock powder application combined with bacterial inoculation enhances the early growth of coffee plants(Editora UFLA, 2025-03-14) Corrêa, Jessiane dos Santos; Araújo, Dayane Aparecida de Oliveira; Rodrigues, Allieksiei Castelar Perim Souza; Brito, Orlando Gonçalves; Gusmão Júnior, Genilson Rodrigues; Rodrigues, Tatiana Tozzi Martins SouzaThe use of rock powder combined with nutrient-solubilizing and growth-promoting bacteria represents a promising alternative for nutrient supply to the soil and improved crop development. This study aimed to evaluate the development of coffee seedlings treated with rock dust and inoculated with Bacillus species. Six types of rock powder (slate, black slate, gneiss, kamafugite, pyroxenite, and a mixture of mica schist and granite) were added to standard fertilizer in the presence or absence of a Bacillus mixture (Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens) during coffee cultivation. We measured plant height, stem diameter, leaf number, shoot and root dry biomass, and nutrient levels in the soil and coffee leaves after. In the kamafugite treatment, adding a bacterial mixture increased plant height. When the bacterial application was considered alone, it resulted in an 85% increase in the plants’ total dry biomass. Rock powder and bacteria showed a substantial interaction effect, particularly for nutrients. Gneiss and kamafugite treatments increased phosphorus availability in the soil, whereas bacterial presence boosted calcium and magnesium content. The combination of nutrient-solubilizing and growth-promoting bacteria and rock powder improved soil chemical properties and the early development of coffee plants.Item Modeling nitrogen loss due to ammonia volatilization in fertilizers applied to coffee plants(Editora da Universidade Estadual de Maringá - EDUEM, 2025-03-25) Nascimento, Leonardo de Almeida; Fernandes, Felipe Augusto; Pereira, Adriele Aparecida; Alves, Henrique José de Paula; Fernandes, Tales JesusThe coffee tree has a strong dependence on nitrogen (N), which influences the nutritional aspect and plant productivity. The knowledge of the nutritional behavior of coffee crops, as well as the pattern of nutrient release and loss, contribute to the appropriate crop management, influencing quality, productivity and minimizing economic losses. Therefore, the objective of this article is to select the non-linear model that best describes nitrogen losses due to ammonia (NH3) volatilization, in seven conventional and increased efficiency fertilizers, applied in three installments to coffee plants and indicate the fertilizers that presented the highest and lowest nitrogen losses due to NH3 volatilization. The data come from an experiment carried out during the 2015/2016 harvest at the Coffee Innovation Agency (INOVACAFÉ) of the Federal University of Lavras, in a randomized block design with 3 replications of 7 treatments (nitrogen fertilizers). The estimation method used was the least squares method (MMQ), with the Gauss-Newton convergence algorithm as the iterative method. As diagnostic measures to determine the best model, the adjusted coefficient of determination (R2aj), residual standard deviation (RSD), Akaike information criterion (AIC) and mean absolute deviation (MAD) were used. It was verified that all models exhibited good adjustments, however, the Brody and Logistic models stood out in describing the accumulated nitrogen losses, due to ammonia volatilization, in relation to the seven treatments applied and evaluated. It was found that ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulfate fertilizers presented the lowest N losses, while Prilled Urea and Urea + anionic polymer contribute the greatest losses due to the volatilization of NH3, in the three fertilizations on coffee plants.Item Altitude on the physicochemical characteristics of coffee beverage from beans produced in Taquaritinga do Norte, in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil(Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária - Embrapa, 2025-06-13) Santos, Wallysson Wagner Vilela; Silva, Gustavo Henrique Daniel Santos; Silva, Elisandra Rabêlo da; Silva, Mateus Bezerra de Lima e; Oliveira, Rodrigo Lira de; Silva, Suzana Pedroza daThe objective of this work was to determine the physicochemical characteristics of coffee beverages prepared with Coffea arabica beans produced at different altitudes in the municipality of Taquaritinga do Norte, in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil. Eight coffee bean samples, obtained from five different producers, were analyzed in a completely randomized design, with three replicates. The evaluated variables were: total acidity, pH, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, extraction percentage, reducing sugars, and caffeine content. The data were subjected to the analysis of variance, Tukey’s mean test, and agglomerative hierarchical clustering. The results showed total acidity from 0.39 to 3.05 mL-1 NaOH, pH from 5.30 to 4.80, electrical conductivity from 2.79 to 3.24 µS cm-1, total dissolved solids from 2.00 to 2.56 °Brix, extraction percentage from 18.14 to 27.24%, reducing sugars from 0.28 to 0.40%, and caffeine content from 0.50 to 2.18%. Through agglomerative hierarchical clustering, two groups of samples were discriminated based on the evaluated physicochemical parameters. Altitude is a common aspect of the samples of a same group, defining different characteristics of coffee beverages in Taquaritinga do Norte.Item Maturation cycle and fruit-to-bean conversion ratios in amazon robusta coffee cultivars(Universidade Federal Rural do Semi-Árido, 2024-12-02) Sousa, Andrey L. B. de; Rocha, Rodrigo B.; Tadeu, Hugo C.; Lopes, Maria T. G.; Espindula, Marcelo C.; Silva, Raniel C. da; Ferreira, Fábio M.This study aimed to characterize the outturn index, field outturn index, uniformity of maturity, and maturation cycle of fifteen Coffea canephora genotypes grown in different environments of the Western Amazon. Conducted in Amazonas (Itacoatiara and Manaus) and Rondônia (Porto Velho), the research evaluated the performance of ten cultivars and five promising genotypes from Embrapa. The genotype × environment interaction was significant, indicating different performance of clones across environments. Genotypic coefficients surpassed environmental ones, indicating a genetic influence on outturn indices and uniformity of maturity. The mean outturn index was 24.68%, and the field outturn index was 22.57%, with Itacoatiara having the highest mean values. The overall mean fruit uniformity of maturity was 63.02%, with Porto Velho achieving the highest mean uniformity value (71.78%). The cultivar BRS1216 exhibited the best performance for outturn indices and provided the highest gain from selection across environments, showing wide adaptability for the outturn index and adaptability to environments favorable for field outturn. Cultivars BRS3210 and BRS3220 achieved more than 82% uniformity of maturity across locations, with BRS3210 adapting to favorable environments and BRS3220 adapting to unfavorable ones. Additionally, BRS3220 had a high mean field outturn index, indicating wide adaptability and high phenotypic stability. The evaluated Amazon Robusta clones and cultivars displayed the expected maturation cycles.Item Selection of differentiated maturity genotypes of Coffea canephora(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 MarquesThe 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.Item Physiological and nutritional parameters of drought resistance in coffee seedlings genotypes(Editora da Universidade Estadual de Maringá - EDUEM, 2025-06-02) Andreazi, Elder; Sousa, Bruno Teixeira de; Oliveira, Halley Caixeta; Fonseca, Inês Cristina de Batista; Mariucci Junior, Valdir; Shigueoka, Luciana Harumi; Sera, Gustavo HiroshiDrought 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.Item 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 VilelaBacterial 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.Item Potential of new Coffea arabica cultivars for renewal of Meloidogyne paranaensis infested crop(Instituto Agronômico (IAC), 2025-06-09) Luz, Silvana Ramlow Otto Teixeira da; Teixeira, Lívia Pimenta; Salgado, Sonia Maria de Lima; Andrade, Vinícius Teixeira; Marques, Elizabeth Rosemeire; Botelho, Cesar Elias; Fatobene, Bárbhara Joana dos Reis; Carvalho, Gladyston RodriguesMeloidogyne paranaensis is one of the most damaging species of root-knot nematode to coffee trees. The development of resistant cultivars is crucial to the continuity of cultivation in infested areas. Thus, the aims of this study were to assess the performance of F6:7 progenies derived from the Amphillo germplasm in an infested area and to validate the new Coffea arabica MGS Vereda and MGS Guaiçara cultivars. The Catuaí Amarelo IAC 62 cultivar was used as the susceptible standard, and IPR 100 as the resistance standard. The experiment was conducted in 2018 using a randomized complete block design with four replications and 15 plants per plot. Resistance related and agronomic traits were assessed over four years. The lowest population of M. paranaensis was observed in progenies 88, 44B, and 105 from MGS Guaiçara, MGS Vereda, and IPR 100 cultivars, respectively. The progenies with the lowest population of M. paranaensis, although resistant, were not productive. The new MGS Vereda cultivar stood out in terms of yield and early fruit ripening, with the highest proportion of cherry fruit at harvest and a low incidence of peaberry grain. The results suggest MGS Vereda cultivar’s potential for the renewal of coffee cultivations occurs in a rainfed system according to the environmental conditions of the experiment.Item Total phenolic content and antioxidant capacity in Muscodor spp. inoculated seedlings of coffee cultivars of Brazil(Editora UFLA, 2025-06-04) Mourão, Bárbara; Bertolucci, Suzan Kelly Vilela; Guimarães, Sarah da Silva Costa; Coelho, Adriane Duarte; Rocha, João Pedro Miranda; Carvalho, Júlia Helena Gomes de; Pedroso, Márcio Pozzobon; Cardoso, Patrícia GomesFungi of the genus Muscodor have received considerable attention for producing volatile and non-volatile organic compounds with biological activity. The objective of this study was to determine the total phenolic content and antioxidant capacity in two coffee cultivars (Catuaí Vermelho and Topázio) inoculated with the endophytic fungi Muscodor coffeanum and Muscodor sp. and in fungal extracts, as well as to characterize the phenolic compounds and trigonelline produced by isolates of Muscodor. Seeds of Coffea arabica (Catuaí Vermelho and Topázio cultivars) were inoculated with twelve fungal isolates and grown in a greenhouse for 24 months. The results showed that the cultivars inoculated with M. coffeanum (CML 4019) had the highest production of total phenolic content and antioxidant capacity. The presence of total phenolic content showed a direct correlation with antioxidant activity. Total phenolic content and antioxidant capacity varied among different Muscodor isolates. The phenolic profile of Muscodor extract determined by HPLCDAD showed the production of catechin, vanillin, and the caffeic, chlorogenic, ferulic, gallic, o-coumaric, p-coumaric, and syringic acids and the alkaloid trigonelline. These endophyte fungi associated with the coffee fruit can improve the quality of the beverage.Item Association Between Black Tea and Coffee Consumption, Socioeconomic Status, and Digestive Disorders: A Case-Control Study(Editora UFLA, 2025-06-04) Asgharzadeh, Vahid; Mahdavipoor, Behroz; Asgharzadeh, Mohammad; Somi, Mohammad Hossein; Hosseini, Mohammad Reza; Ghazani, Hossein Bari; Ozma, Mahdi Asghari; Rashedi, Jalil; Kohkalani, Moein; Rezaei, Seyyed Amin SeyyedThis study aimed to explore the relationship between black tea and coffee consumption and the prevalence of digestive system disorders in the Azeri population of East Azerbaijan, Iran, while considering the influence of underlying social and economic conditions. A case-control study involved 186 patients diagnosed with digestive system disorders and 185 healthy controls. Data were collected via questionnaires that assessed demographic factors, black tea and coffee consumption habits, water intake, and socioeconomic status. We used a rapid urease test to detect Helicobacter pylori infection in the patients. Statistical analyses were performed using the chi-square test, with a p-value less than 0.05 as statistically significant. Black tea and coffee consumption was significantly higher in the patients than in the healthy controls (p < 0.05). Patients also had lower levels of education and financial status. Daily water intake was significantly lower in patients, while consumption of liquids with meals was higher (p < 0.05). Additionally, patients who consumed black tea and coffee after meals had a higher prevalence of digestive disorders. High consumption of black tea and coffee is associated with an increased risk of digestive system disorders, especially among individuals with lower socioeconomic status. These findings suggest that dietary habits, along with underlying social and economic conditions, should be considered when managing digestive health, especially in populations with high black tea and coffee consumption.
