    Bacterial blight of coffee (Pseudomonas syringae pv. garcae) (PSG) has been causing damage and losses to coffee growing. However, initial stages of the infectious process should be described in order to understand the relationship cycle and to propose efficient management strategies. This study described the initial stages of infectious process of the PSG in coffee leaves over time. The bacterial penetration sites studied were stomata, leaf margins, and wounds. Coffee seedlings received 50μL inoculum suspension at marked points on the abaxial face and leaf margins, and around wounds. By 30 minutes, 1, 3, 6, and 12 hours after inoculation, leaf disks collected at inoculated points were analyzed with scanning electron microscopy. One hour after inoculation, bacterial groups could be seen as result of cell multiplication. Subsequently, the number of grouped bacteria increased proportionally over time. A growing population concentration was found near stomata, wounds, epidermal appendages, and wax layer on leaf margins and leaf tip. From these places bacteria were positioned in their long axis starting from structures, thus created a population gradient and displacement flow toward penetration sites. Initial stages of infectious process occurred in all penetration sites, thus it was not possible to determine a preferred pathway.

    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.

    Phytotoxicity of mineral, vegetable oils and foliar fertilizers in coffee seedlings
    (Editora UFLA, 2017-01) Santos, Leandro Alvarenga; Pozza, Edson Ampélio; Souza, Paulo Estevão de
    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 evaluated phytotoxic effects of mineral oil, vegetable oil and foliar fertilizer in different application times. In the second experiment evaluated the intensity of radiation in the occurrence of toxicity symptoms caused by both oils. At the end of the second experiment samples were taken to perform scanning electron microscopy. Plants sprayed 12:00 h had higher incidence and severity of injuries to both oils in relation to others (9:00 and 17:00h). In the light intensity experiment proved that the increase of light intensity from 80 to 320 μmol/m2/s promoted an increase in symptoms of phytotoxicity. In the analysis of lesions by scanning electron microscopy, deformations on the leaf surface caused by mineral oil and also for vegetable oil were observed.

    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.
