    The production of seedlings is a determining factor for the establishment and success of the coffee plantation. The objective of this study was to evaluate the production of Coffea canephora seedlings by cuttings in a modified hydroponic system and in a conventional nursery, using different containers. At the end of the experiment, growth (height, stem diameter, total number of pairs of leaves, leaf area, root area, dry matter weight of leaves, stem and root), physiological (chlorophyll a, b and total and stomatal conductance) and anatomical (stomatal density, functionality and opening) characteristics were analyzed. For statistical analysis, a completely randomized design (CRD) was used, with five treatments and six replications, with ten plants per plot. Seedlings produced in a modified hydroponic system using 50- and 120-cm³ tubettes show better vegetative growth and physiological characteristics compared to those produced in a nursery. Seedling management in a modified hydroponic system using 120-cm³ tubettes provides greater cutting survival percentage, number of remaining leaves and emission of shoots. In nurseries, the use of polyethylene bags provides better seedling quality and survival in relation to the use of tubettes, regardless of volume.

    Infection process of Cercospora coffeicola in immature coffee fruits
    (Editora UFLA, 2019-01) Paula, Paulo Victor Augusto Azevedo de; Pozza, Edson Ampélio; Alves, Eduardo; Moreira, Silvino Intra; Paula, Júlio Cesar Azevedo; Santos, Leandro Alvarenga
    Cercosporiosis is caused by Cercospora coffeicola and represents a very important coffee plants phytosanitary problem. Catuaí IAC 144 and Topázio cultivars at the F2 stage were inoculated with a conidial suspension. Samples were collected at 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, and 168 hours after inoculation (hai) for scanning electron microscope studies. Fungal germination in epidermal surface occurred four hai; penetration only through epidermal wounds, without appressoria, started at 12 hai while the mycelial colonization occurred at 72 hai. The infection in immature coffee fruits implies brown eyespot control management anticipation need, even before the first symptoms.

    Effect of temperature and leaf wetness on Phoma tarda and phoma leaf spot in coffee seedlings
    (Editora UFLA, 2015-01) Lorenzetti, Emi Rainildes; Pozza, Edson Ampélio; Souza, Paulo Estevão de; Santos, Leandro Alvarenga; Alves, Eduardo; Silva, André Costa da; Maia, Fernanda Gonçalves Martins; Carvalho, Rejane Rodrigues da Costa
    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 temperature (15, 20, 25 and 30 oC) and leaf wetness duration (6, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hours) on fungal infection and severity of disease over time in coffee plants. Disease assessment was integrated in the area using the disease progress curve (AUDPC) and the infection processes were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The optimal temperatures for fungus growth, conidial production and germination in vitro were 22.9, 29.8, and 25.1 °C, respectively. Temperatures ranging from 15-20 °C significantly increased germ tube length and provided favorable conditions for pathogen infection through observation of early events such as cuticle separation from leaf tissue. The same temperature range combined with increasing leaf wetness periods, reached the highest value of the AUDPC of phoma leaf spot. Thus, it was found that both temperature and leaf wetness duration in the variables assessed and the difference in relation to temperature for in vitro growth and sporulation for in vivo tests were important.

    Aspectos anatômicos e fisiológicos de mudas de cafeeiro (Coffea arabica L.) com cercosporiose (Cercospora coffeicola Berk. & Cook.) adubadas com ácido siĺíco
    (Editora UFLA, 2009-07) Botelho, Deila Magna dos Santos; Pozza, Edson Ampélio; Alves, Eduardo; Furtini Neto, Antônio Eduardo; Barbosa, João Paulo Rodrigues Alves Delfino; Castro, Daniel Melo de
    Objetivou-se com o presente trabalho avaliar o efeito do ácido silícico em características fisiológicas e anatômicas de mudas de cafeeiro (Coffea arabica L.) inoculadas com Cercospora coffeicola Berk. & Cook. Os tratamentos consistiram de seis doses de ácido silícico no solo (0, 0,5; 1; 2; 4 e 6 g kg 1 ), em delineamento experimental de blocos casualizados, com quatro repetições. A parcela experimental foi constituída por 12 mudas de cafeeiro cultivar Catuaí Vermelho IAC 99. Nas folhas, foram avaliados os conteúdos de clorofila a, clorofila b e de carotenoides, acúmulo de lignina e presença de cera epicuticular. A fotossíntese potencial foi medida em plantas com e sem sintomas visuais da cercosporiose, na maior dose de ácido silícico (6,0 g kg -1 de solo) e na testemunha. Cortes transversais foram feitos no caule das mudas de cafeeiro para avaliar a espessura da epiderme, do câmbio vascular, do xilema, do floema e do parênquima esponjoso. Os conteúdos de clorofila a, b, carotenoides e lignina, bem como as características anatômicas do caule, não foram influenciados pelos tratamentos. Observou-se maior presença de cera epicuticular nas folhas de mudas cultivadas nos tratamentos 2 g e 6 g de ácido silícico. A maior dose de ácido silícico (6 g kg -1 de solo) proporcionou a menor fotossíntese potencial em folhas de plantas sem sintomas de cercosporiose.
