Item Phialomyces macrosporus reduces Cercospora coffeicola survival on symptomatic coffee leaves(Editora UFLA, 2019-01) Laborde, Marie Caroline Ferreira; Botelho, Deila Magna dos Santos; Rodríguez, Gabriel Alfonso Alvarez; Resende, Mário Lúcio Vilela de; Queiroz, Marisa Vieira de; Batista, Aline Duarte; Cardoso, Patrícia Gomes; Pascholati, Sérgio Florentino; Gusmão, Luis Fernando Pascholati; Martins, Samuel Júlio; Medeiros, Flávio Henrique Vasconcelos deBrown eye spot is among the most important coffee diseases, it is caused by a necrotrophic fungal Cercospora coffeicola. Saprobe fungi have potential in reducing the survival of necrotrophic pathogens and can act through competition of nutrients, mycoparasitism, antibiosis and resistance induction. We have screened saprobe fungi for the ability to reduce C. coffeicola sporulation and viability and determined the possible mechanisms involved in the biocontrol. The selected saprobe fungus, Phialomyces macrosporus, reduced the germination of C. coffeicola conidia by 40%. P. macrosporus produced both volatile and non-volatile compounds that inhibited C. coffeicola growth, sporulation and viability. The production of antimicrobial substances was the main mode of action used by the saprobe fungi. Therefore, P. macrosporus is a promising biological agent for the integrated management of brown eye spotItem Effect of the density anda of the distance of Brachiaria decumbens Staff on the initial growth of Coffea arabica L. seedlings(Editora UFLA, 2009-01) Marcolini, Livia Weyand; Alves, Pedro Luís da Costa Aguiar; Dias, Tomás Carneiro de Souza; Parreira, Mariana CasariThe aim of this work was to evaluate the interference of three densities (4, 8 and 16 plants/m 2 ) of Brachiaria decumbens Stapf distributed at three different distances (0, 10 and 20 cm from coffee plants) on the initial growth of Coffea arabica L. seedlings. Dark red Latosoil was used as substrate to fill up 70 liters cement boxes. Coffee seedlings at 15 cm height and 8 leaves stage were planted in each box. B. decumbens seedlings were transplanted when they reached two to four leaves stage. The experimental design was a randomized blocks with ten treatments and three replications. At the end of the experiment were measured, height, leaf number, leaf area, chlorophyll content and dry weight of coffee plants. Dry weight of B. decumbens leaves was also evaluated. The leaf area and leaf dry weight was shown to be more sensitive parameters to the interference of Brachiaria plants. Dry weight of coffee plants were reduced from 60% to 88% when the B. decumbens were transplanted 0 cm from the coffee plant. With distance of 10 cm the reduction of dry weight increased with the increase of the density of the B. decumbens. In the coexistence of the coffee plants with 16 plants/m 2 of B. decumbens, there was a reduction in the dry weight of about 80% at the distances of 0 and 20 cm. Regarding leaf area, the reduction was 47% on the average in the density of 4 plants/m 2 of B. decumbens The reduction i
