    Rice grain resistance to brown spot and yield are increased by silicon
    (Tropical Plant Pathology, 2014-01) Rodrigues, Fabricio A.; Dallagnol, Leandro J.; Mielli, Mateus V. B.; Ma, Jian F.
    Brown spot, caused by Bipolaris oryzae, is one of the most important diseases of rice and can cause a reduction in yield and grain quality. The effect of silicon (Si) on the resistance of rice grains to brown spot was investigated. Plants from cv. Oochikara and its mutant, defective in the Lsi1 transporter (lsi1 mutant), were grown in hydroponic culture either with Si (+Si; 2 mM) or without Si (-Si). Panicle inoculation with B. oryzae was carried out at the beginning of the milk-grain stage. Panicles were harvested at physiological grain maturity. The supply of Si significantly increased Si concentration in husks compared to -Si plants. Si concentration in husks from cv. Oochikara was up to three times greater than the lsi1 mutant. In the presence of Si, brown spot severity was reduced by 88% in grains from cv. Oochikara and by 53% in grains from lsi1 mutant. Brown spot severity was 77% lower for grains of cv. Oochikara than for the lsi1 mutant, both plant types were grown in the presence of Si. Panicle inoculation reduced significantly the following yield components: number of grains per panicle, the weight of 1000 grains and the percentage of filled grains. Si significantly increased these yield components, especially for inoculated panicles. Considering kernel quality, the panicle inoculation with B. oryzae significantly reduced the yield of husked kernel, yield of whole kernel and kernel diameter, especially for grains from -Si plants. For panicles from +Si plants, the kernel quality was improved under inoculation, compared to -Si plants. Results from this study show that Si improved rice yield and kernel quality in panicles inoculated with B. oryzae. Furthermore the functional Lsi1 gene contributed significantly for increasing the yield of whole kernel and kernel diameter, possibly due to the increasing Si concentration in husks.

    Induction of resistance to Pyricularia oryzae in wheat by acibenzolar-S-methyl, ethylene and jasmonic acid
    (Tropical Plant Pathology, 2014-05) Rios, Jonas Alberto; Rodrigues, Fabrício Ávila; Debona, Daniel; Resende, Renata Sousa; Moreira, Wiler Ribas; Andrade, Camila Cristina Lage
    This study investigated the effects of acibenzolar-S-methyl (ASM), ethylene (ET) and jasmonic acid (JA) on the resistance of two wheat cultivars (BRS-229 and BR-18) to infection by Pyricularia oryzae. The treatments included spraying plants with ASM (300 mg L-1), ET (0.5 mM), JA (0.1 mM) and distilled water (control) 48 h before inoculation with P. oryzae. Malondialdehyde concentration, an indicative of oxidative damage to the lipids in the leaf cells, was significantly higher for plants sprayed with ASM compared to plants sprayed with JA and ET. Plants sprayed with JA and ET showed reduced values for the number of lesions per cm2 of leaf area and area under blast progress curve, but these hormones had no effect on the incubation period and lesion size (in mm). Plants sprayed with JA and ET showed reduce blast symptoms in comparison to plants sprayed with ASM due to greater peroxidase, polyphenoloxidase, chitinase and β-1,3-glucanase activities.

    (Tropical Plant Pathology, 2014-09) Del Ponte, Emerson Medeiros; Funck, Gustavo Daltrozzo; Deibler, Alexandre Nunes; Schwanck, André Aguiar; Caniela, Ana Rita de Almeida; Farias, Cândida Renata Jacobsen de; Meneses, Priscila Rossatto
    A total of 722 rice seed lots were collected at six production regions of Rio Grande do Sul state during three consecutive seasons (2009/10 to 2011/12). For each seed lot, 200 seeds were assessed for the presence of Bipolaris spp. using a standard seed health blotter test. Results showed that B. oryzae and B. cynodontis were found in 62.5% and 10.4% of the seed lots, respectively. Overall mean incidence of B. oryzae and B. cynodontis were 0.5% and 0.06%, respectively. For the two most sampled varieties (75% of the seed lots), IRGA 424 and Puitá INTA CL, mean incidence levels were highest and lowest, respectively. Among regions, infection risk was highest in the southeastern and lowest in the western regions of the state, especially the Fronteira Oeste. The prevalence and the incidence levels of Bipolaris oryzae reported in this study were lower than previous reports in the same region - eighty percent of the seed lots showed incidence levels below the recommended 5% inoculum threshold. In conclusion, rice seeds produced by IRGA-certified growers showed an overall good health quality with regards to B. oryzae infection, which is the main Bipolaris species associated with rice seeds in southern Brazil.

    Photosynthetic gas exchange and antioxidative system in common bean plants infected by Colletotrichum lindemuthianum and supplied with silicon
    (Tropical Plant Pathology, 2014-01) Polanco, Leonora R.; Rodrigues, Fabrício A.; Nascimento, Kelly J. T.; Cruz, Maria F. A.; Curvelo, Carmen R. S.; Vale, Francisco X. R.
    This study investigated the effects of silicon (Si) on the resistance of common bean plants to anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum lindemuthianum. The plants were grown in a nutrient solution containing 0 (control) or 2 mM Si (+Si) and both photosynthesis and antioxidative metabolism levels were evaluated. The Si concentrations in the leaf tissues of +Si plants increased by 33% in comparison to those of control plants. Anthracnose severity was reduced by 34% in +Si plants in comparison to control plants. The net carbon assimilation rate, stomatal conductance to water vapor and transpiration rate values were significantly higher in +Si plants than in control plants. The activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and glutathione reductase (GR) tended to be higher in +Si plants than in control plants. The hydrogen peroxide concentration was significantly lower in +Si plants than in control plants. In conclusion, the Si supply was associated with lower anthracnose severity and up-regulation of antioxidant enzymes, which in turn might be associated with better gas exchange in +Si plants. The impaired photosynthetic performance in +Si plants was associated with stomatal limitations, whereas in control plants those impairments likely reflected dysfunctions at the level of biochemical reactions involved in CO2 fixation.

    Reappraisal of the black mildews (Meliolales) on Hevea brasiliensis
    (Tropical Plant Pathology, 2014-01) Pinho, Danilo B.; Honorato Junior, Jaime; Firmino, André L.; Hora Junior, Braz T.; Mizubuti, Eduardo S. G.; Pereira, Olinto L.
    The rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) is host to several fungal species, including Irenopsis heveae as described by Hansford in 1961, which causes black mildew on leaves. One specimen of Irenopsis heveae from the state of Espírito Santo and two from the state of Pará were analyzed and showed some morphological differences. Some structures are similar to morphological characteristics as described and illustrated by Vincens in 1915 for Meliola heveae. Morphological comparisons with the type specimen of I. heveae and the alignment of the nucleotide sequences of the 28S rDNA region, however, indicate that the three samples belong to the same species. According to these data M. heveae and I. heveae are heterotypic synonyms with M. heveae being the older name. As the name I. heveae is already occupied by Hansford, Irenopsis vincensii is proposed as new name for the black mildew on H. brasiliensis. This is the first contribution of molecular sequence data for this species.

    Selection of fungi with biocontrol potential against the black spot disease of papaya
    (Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2017-10) Pereira, Olinto Liparini; Vivas, Janieli Maganha Silva; Silveira, Silvaldo Felipe da; Santos, Pedro Henrique Dias dos; Pinho, Danilo Batista
    The use of fungicides is the main control measure against the black-spot disease of papaya. The biological control is an alternative to that, being the selection of mycoparasitic fungi the first step in programs aiming at this kind of control. This study aimed to obtain and select fungi with potential to the biocontrol of the black spot disease of papaya. For this purpose, 24 isolates were collected from different regions and pathosystems, and then identified morphologically and by the ITS region sequencing. In order to evaluate the mycoparasite potential, two assessments, in a randomized block design, with three replications, were carried out in a shadehouse, being the obtained isolates inoculated on papaya leaves with black spot lesions. The average time for the appearance of mycoparasitism signs and the incidence of mycoparasitized black spot lesions were evaluated. Of the 24 isolates obtained, ten were from Hansfordia pulvinata, two from Lecanicillium lecaniium, two from Simplicillium lanossoniveum, one from Sarocladium implicatum and nine from Acremonium spp. A wide variability, concerning the mycoparasitism on black spot lesions, was observed, especially for the isolates H-611, H-613, H-614 and H-615, which showed the highest colonization averages. The results demonstrate that H. pulvinata has a great potential to be used as a biocontrol agent against Asperisporium caricae.

    (Journal of the Brazilian Chemical Society, 2017-06) Abreu, Lucas M.; Daniel, Juliana F. S.; Silva, Andressa A.; Nakagawa, Danielle H.; Medeiros, Lívia S. de; Carvalho, Mário G.; Tavares, Lucineli J.; Rodrigues-Filho, Edson
    Beauveria bassiana is an entomopathogenic fungus that has been well known for its capacity to act as biopesticide on various disease vectors. The analysis of organic extracts of strains CG71 and UNI40 led to identification of cyclodepsipeptides beauvericin, beauvericin A or F, beauvericin E and bassianolide by ultra-high pressure liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry in tandem mode (UHPLC-HRMS/MS). The larvicidal activity on 3rd instar of Aedes aegypti revealed LC50 0.9887 and 0.4653 ppm in 24 and 48 hours (CG71 methanolic extract), LC50 0.7834 ppm in 48 hours (CG71 ethyl acetate), LC50 0.7834 and 1.8149 ppm (UNI 40 for ethyl acetate and methanolic extracts, respectively) in 48 hours. These findings highlight the potential of B. bassiana metabolites for controlling the vector of Dengue and Zika diseases.

    (Revista Brasileira de Plantas Medicinais, 2015-01) Fonseca, M. C. M.; Lehner, M. S.; Gonçalves, M. G.; Paula Júnior, T. J.; Silva, A. F.; Bonfim, F. P. G.; Prado, A. L.
    Além do valor como recurso terapêutico, plantas medicinais também possuem potencial para serem utilizadas como fonte de princípios ativos contra fitopatógenos. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito de óleos essenciais das espécies medicinais Baccharis dracunculifolia (alecrim-do-campo), Schinus terebinthifolius (aroeirinha) e Porophyllum ruderale (arnica-brasileira) sobre o crescimento dos fungos fitopatogênicos Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. phaseoli (Fop), F. solani f. sp. phaseoli (Fsp), Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Ss), S. minor (Sm), Rhizoctonia solani (Rs), Sclerotium rolfsii (Sr) e Macrophomina phaseolina (Mp). Avaliou-se em placas de Petri o crescimento radial desses fungos em meio batata-dextrose-ágar (BDA) com cinco concentrações (0, 250, 500, 1000 e 3000 mg L-1) dos óleos essenciais. Discos de micélio (5 mm de diâmetro) de cada fungo em crescimento foram transferidos para placas de Petri que foram mantidas a 23°C no escuro por 48 horas. O óleo essencial de alecrim-do-campo foi o mais eficiente na redução do crescimento micelial de todos os fungos, com inibição completa quando se utilizou a concentração de 3000 mg L-1. A redução de crescimento variou de 29% (Fs) a 80% (Rs) a 250 mg L-1 do óleo essencial de alecrim-do-campo; a 500 mg L-1, variou de 29% (Fs) a 98% (Sr); e a 1000 mg L-1, de 41% (Fs) a 100% (Sr). A redução do crescimento dos fungos pelo óleo de aroeirinha na concentração de 3000 mg L-1 variou de 27% (Fsp) a 74% (Rs). Nessa concentração, o óleo de arnica-brasileira reduziu o crecimento micelial de Ss em 72%, o de Rs em 80% e o de Mp em 82%, sem efeitos significativos sobre o crescimento micelial de Fsp e Fop. Conclui-se que os óleos essenciais de alecrim-do-campo, aroeirinha e arnica-brasileira possuem potencial para o controle dos fungos fitopatogênicos estudados, com destaque para o óleo de alecrim-do-campo.

    Selective media for detection and quantification of Brazilian Ralstonia solanacearum isolates in soil
    (Horticultura Brasileira, 2017-01) Oliveira, José R.; Pontes, Nadson C; Fujinawa, Miriam F.
    The efficacy of five selective media described in the literature for the detection of Ralstonia solanacearum in soil was evaluated using isolates from different regions of Brazil. The selective media were evaluated regarding their sensitivity, target-pathogen repression index, capacity for suppressing contaminating microorganisms and recovery rate of the pathogen in soil. No bacterial growth was observed at the concentrations tested for FSM and SM-1 media. Some isolates grew on the PCCG medium with the addition of antimicrobial agents, but only at concentrations of 106 cfu/mL. For the SM and SMSA-E media, adequate sensitivity for the detection of R. solanacearum in soil was observed, enabling detection at a concentration of approximately 103 cfu/gram of soil. SMSA-E (Selective Medium South Africa - Elphinstone) was found to be the most effective in suppressing the growth of contaminating microorganisms, resulting in the lowest rate of repression of R. solanacearum and the highest recovery rate of the bacterium in the soil.

    Volume de aplicação e eficiência do controle químico da mancha bacteriana em tomateiro industrial
    (Horticultura Brasileira, 2017-07) Maffia, Luiz A.; Pontes, Nadson C.; Nascimento, Abadia R.; Golynski, Adelmo; Moita, Antonio W.; Oliveira, José R.; Quezado-Duval, Alice M.
    Foi avaliado o efeito do volume de aplicação de hidróxido de cobre (HC) e do acibenzolar-S-metil (ASM) no controle da mancha bacteriana em tomate para processamento industrial. Os ensaios foram realizados em 2010, sendo um em Brasília-DF (ensaio 1), e dois em Morrinhos-GO (ensaios 2 e 3). Os volumes empregados foram 250 e 500 L/ha e as aplicações realizadas semanalmente, totalizando 13 aplicações. No terceiro ensaio, o número de aplicações do ASM foi reduzido para oito e as aplicações restantes foram feitas com HC. Após as duas primeiras aplicações, as plantas foram inoculadas artificialmente com Xanthomonas perforans (ensaios 1 e 2) e X. gardneri (ensaio 3). Foram avaliadas, de acordo com o ensaio, a severidade da doença, a produtividade e a relação benefício/custo para cada tratamento, tendo por base o incremento de produção em relação à testemunha não tratada. Em todos os ensaios, o volume de aplicação afetou a eficiência dos produtos, com maior redução da doença com aplicação de 500 L/ha. O efeito dos tratamentos na produtividade foi variável. Com base nos resultados do terceiro ensaio, com a aplicação de ASM-HC no volume de 250 L/ha, obteve-se a maior relação benefício/custo, seguido pelo tratamento com HC a 500 L/ha.
