    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

    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.
