Resumo
O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a flutuação populacional do ácaro Brevipalpus phoenicis, vetor do Coffee ringspot virus (CoRSV) – agente causal da mancha‐anular do cafeeiro –, bem como a sua distribuição em plantas de café e o efeito de acaricidas no seu controle em lavouras cafeeiras. O experimento foi realizado no Município de Coromandel, na região do Alto do Paranaíba, MG, durante dois anos. No segundo ano, avaliou-se o progresso da doença, e determinou-se a relação entre o crescimento populacional do ácaro e a incidência da doença. Observou-se que a mancha‐anular e o ácaro ocorreram durante todo o ano, com maiores populações e incidência da doença nos meses com menores índices pluviais e temperaturas amenas. As análises de Pearson mostraram correlação negativa entre os parâmetros climáticos e a população do ácaro. Na análise da incidência da doença em diferentes épocas, verificou-se correlação positiva entre a primeira avaliação e as avaliações subsequentes. Quanto à distribuição espacial, foi observada a presença do ácaro em toda a planta; porém, as folhas são preferidas pelos adultos, enquanto os frutos são preferidos para oviposição. Os acaricidas são eficientes para manter a população do ácaro em baixos níveis, com consequente diminuição da incidência da doença.
The objective of this work was to evaluate the population fluctuation of the mite Brevipalpus phoenicis, vector of the Coffee ringspot virus (CoRSV) – the causal agent of the coffee ringspot disease –, as well as its distribution in coffee plants, and the effect of acaricides in its control in coffee crops. The experiment was carried out at the municipality of Coromandel, in the region of Alto do Paranaíba, MG, Brazil, during two years. In the second year, the progress of the disease was evaluated, and the relationship between the mite population and disease incidence was determined. Ringspot disease and mites were detected throughout the year, with larger populations and disease incidence in the months with lower rainfall and mild temperatures. Pearson analyses showed negative correlation between the climatic parameters and the mite population. In the analysis of the disease incidence in different periods, a positive correlation was found among the first and subsequent evaluations. Regarding spatial distribution, mite presence was observed in the whole plant; however, leaves are preferred by the adults, whereas the fruit are preferred for oviposition. The acaricides are effective in keeping the mite population at low levels, with consequent reduction of disease incidence.
