Seleção de genótipos de vinagreira tolerantes/resistentes à mancha foliar induzida por Corynespora cassiicola em Guerrero, México

Abstract

ABSTRACT Roselle spot caused by Corynespora cassiicola affects calyx production in Mexico. The aim of the present study was to evaluate twenty-two roselle genotypes against C. cassiicola under greenhouse conditions. The area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC) was used to detect susceptible, tolerant and resistant genotypes. Considering the incidence in leaves, susceptible genotypes were Conpoz, Sudlaz, Morcot and Sudigua (AUDPC values of 7379.2 to 5891.7); tolerant genotypes were Conayu and Chinxal (AUDPC 1341.6 and 1313.2). Based on the severity in leaves, susceptible genotypes were Sudigua, Conpoz and Morena2 (AUDPC from 788.4 to 436.3); tolerant genotypes were Almatech, Crioxal, Rojatec and Conayu (37.7 to 28.76 AUDPC). Assessment of the incidence in calyces indicated that susceptible genotypes were Morena2, Morena, Conpoz, Descop and Chinayu (AUDPC from 6572.1 to 2319.4); for the severity in calices, susceptible genotypes were Morena2, Descop, Morena, Cabxal, Chinayu and Conpoz (AUDPC from 3355.4 to 779.2). Incidence and severity on calyces evidenced resistant genotypes, which were Almatech, Criolaz2, Criocot, Criolaz, Rojatec, Criopoz, Crioxal, Chinxal and Conayu (0.0 AUDPC). In the present study, tolerant and resistant genotypes were detected to leaf and calyx spot caused by C. cassiicola in roselle.
