An apparent decline of fungicide performance for the control of soybean rust in Brazil has been reported but the rate at which it has occurred has not been formally quantified. Control efficacy and yield response to three fungicides applied as single active ingredients (a.i.)—azoxystrobin (AZOX), cyproconazole (CYPR), and tebuconazole (TEBU)—and four applied as mixtures—AZOX+CYPR, picoxystrobin + CYPR, pyraclostrobin + epoxiconazole, and trifloxystrobin + prothioconazole (TRIF+PROT)—were summarized using network meta-analytic models fitted to mean severity and yield data from 250 trials (10-year period). The effect of year was tested on both variables in a meta-regression model. Overall control efficacy ranged from 56 to 84%; the three single-a.i. fungicides performed the poorest (56 to 62%). Yield increase for single-a.i. fungicides was as low as 30% but ranged from 47 to 65% for the premixes. Significant declines in both variables were detected for all fungicides except TRIF+PROT. For TEBU, control efficacy (yield response) declined the most: 78% (18%) to 54% (8%) from 2004–05 to 2013–14. The recent surge of resistant populations of Phakopsora pachyrhizi to both demethylation inhibitor and quinone outside inhibitor fungicides is likely the driving force behind a significant decline after 4 years of fungicide use.
Target spot of soybean has spread in Brazil, the southeastern United States and Argentina in the last decade. A collaborative network of field Uniform Fungicide Trials (UFT) in Brazil was created in 2011 to study the target spot control efficacy of fungicides, including azoxystrobin + benzovindiflupyr (AZ_BF), carbendazim (CZM), fluxapyroxad + pyraclostrobin (FLUX_PYRA), epoxiconazole + FLUX_PYRA (EPO_FLUX_PYRA), mancozeb (MZB) and prothioconazole + trifloxystrobin (PROT_TRIF). Network meta‐analysis was used to conduct a quantitative synthesis of UFT data collected from 2012 to 2016 and to evaluate the effects of disease pressure (DP, low ≤ 35% target spot severity in the nontreated control < high) and year of experiment on the overall mean efficacy and yield response to each of the tested fungicides. Based on mean percentage control of target spot severity, the tested fungicides fall into three efficacy groups (EG): high EG, FLUX_PYRA (76.2% control relative to the nontreated control) and EPO_FLUX_PYRA (75.7% control); intermediate EG, PROT_TRIF (66.5% control) and low EG, MZB (49.6% control), AZ_BF (46.7% control) and CZM (32.4% control). DP had a significant effect on yield response. At DPLow, the highest response was due to PROT_TRIF (+342 kg ha−1, +12.8%) and EPO_FLUX_PYRA (+295.5 kg ha−1, +11.2%), whereas at DPHigh, EPO_FLUX_PYRA and FLUX_PYRA outperformed the other treatments, with yield responses of 503 kg ha−1 (+20.2%) and 469 kg ha−1 (+19.1%), respectively. The probability of a positive return on fungicide investment ranged from 0.26 to 0.56 at DPLow and from 0.34 to 0.66 at DPHigh.
White mold, caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, is a yield-limiting disease of soybean in Brazil. Uniform fungicide trials have been conducted annually since 2009. Data from 74 cooperative field trials conducted over a 10-year period were assembled. We selected five fungicides applied two times around flowering: dimoxystrobin plus boscalid (DIMO+BOSC), carbendazim plus procymidone (CARB+PROC), fluazinam (FLUZ), fluopyram (FLUO), and procymidone (PROC). For comparison, thiophanate-methyl (TMET) applied four times was also included as a low-cost treatment. Network models were fitted to the log of white mold incidence (percentages) and log of sclerotia mass data (grams/hectare) and to the nontransformed yield data (kilograms/hectare) for each treatment, including the untreated check. Back-transformation of the meta-analytic estimates indicated that the lowest and highest mean (95% confidence interval [CI]) percent reductions in incidence and sclerotia mass were 54.2 (49.3 to 58.7) and 51.6% (43.7 to 58.3) for TMET and 83.8 (79.1 to 87.5) and 87% (81.9 to 91.6) for CARB+PROC, respectively. The overall mean (95% CI) yield responses ranged from 323 kg/ha (247.4 to 400.3) for TMET to 626 kg/ha (521.7 to 731.7) for DIMO+BOSC, but the variance was significantly reduced by a binary variable (30% threshold) describing disease incidence in the untreated check. On average, an increment of 352 kg/ha was estimated for trials where the incidence was >30% compared with the low-disease scenario. Hence, the probability of breaking even on fungicide costs for the high-disease scenario was >65% for the more effective, but more expensive fungicide (FLUZ) than TMET. For the low-disease scenario, profitability was less likely and depended more on variations in fungicide cost and soybean price.
An experiment conducted in the field the action of mancozeb, a fungicide of multi-site action was tested, to control soybean rust caused by Phakopsora pachyrhizi. Its performance was compared to that of the mixture cyproconazole (DMI) + azoxystrobin (QoI). The soybean cultivar NA 7337 RR was used with a population of 400,000 plants/ha cultivated in 20m2 plots. Treatments consisted of mancozeb levels (1.5 and 2.0 kg/ha) applied four, six and eight times. The DMI + QoI mixture was applied three times at 0.3 L/ha + Nimbus. Rust severity was assessed six times in the plots and data were integrated as the area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC). The plots were harvested and grain yield was expressed as kg/ha. Data on AUDPC and yield were subjected to analysis of variance and means compared according to Turkey's test (p = 0.005). Treatments with mancozeb were superior to DMI + QoI mixture both for rust control and grain yield. Four applications of 2.0 k/ha mancozeb were more efficient than three applications of the mixture used as standard. Mancozeb has the potential to be added to fungicide mixtures in the establishment of soybean rust anti-resistance strategy.
RESUMOA infectividade e a reprodução de Meloidogyne javanica e de Heterodera glycines, em cultivar suscetível e resistente de soja, diferiram, de acordo com a temperatura do solo. A 28 o C o número de massas de ovos, total de ovos, de fêmeas e a porcentagem de sucesso de parasitismo dos juvenis do segundo estádio (J2) em cada cultivar (suscetível e resistentes) de soja infestada com M. javanica foram, significativamente maiores, comparados com as demais temperaturas (32º C, 26º C, 24º C e 20º C). Entretanto, a soma de juvenis do terceiro e quarto estádios (J3 e J4) foi maior em todas as cultivares, quando a temperatura submetida às plantas inoculadas com M. javanica foi de 20º C comparada com as demais temperaturas. A capacidade reprodutiva da fêmea (ovos por fêmea) de M. javanica foi sempre maior na cultivar suscetível em cada temperatura testada, porém, significativamente maior na cultivar suscetível colocada a 32º C comparada com as demais temperaturas. Nas relações H. glycines e soja, as temperaturas testadas proporcionaram valores semelhantes para a população total (fêmeas e cistos) na cultivar resistente. Na cultivar suscetível, a temperatura de 28º C aumentou significativamente o número de fêmeas, total de fêmeas e cistos e a porcentagem de parasitismo de J2 de H. glycines, comparada com todas as demais temperaturas.

ABSTRACTThe infectivity and reproduction of Meloidogyne javanica and Heterodera glycines in susceptible and resistant soybean cultivars differs according to soil temperatures. At 28 o C the egg-mass number, total eggs, and females, and percentage of parasitism success of second stage juveniles (J2) in each cultivar (susceptible and resistants) of infested soybean with M. javanica were significantly greater when compared to other temperatures (32º C, 26º C, 24º C and 20º C). However, the sum of third and fourth juvenile stages (J3 and J4) was greater in all cultivars when M. javanica inoculated plants were submitted to 20 o C. The female reproductive capacity (eggs per female) of M. javanica was always greater on susceptible cultivars in each tested temperature, but significantly greater in the susceptible cultivars submitted to 32 o C as compared to other temperatures. On the interaction between H. glycines and resistant soybean cultivars, the different temperatures resulted in similar values for the total population (females + cysts no.) on the resistant cultivars. On susceptible cultivars 28º C increased significantly the number of females, total females + cysts and the percentage of J2 parasitism of H. glycines as compared to all other temperatures.
do tempo e da temperatura de incubação de juvenis do segundo estádio (J2) no teor de lipídio corporal e no parasitismo de Meloidogyne javanica em soja. Fitopatologia Brasileira 31: 387-393. 2006. RESUMOA temperatura ambiente e o teor de lipídio no corpo do juvenil do segundo estádio (J2) de Meloidogyne sp. afetam seu parasitismo no hospedeiro. Assim, neste trabalho estudou-se a relação do teor de lipídio corporal e da temperatura com o período de incubação do J2 de Meloidogyne javanica em água e o parasitismo em soja. O teor de lipídio no J2 diminuiu significativamente em cada período de incubação no intervalo de 2 a 12 dias. Entretanto, a patogenicidade dos J2 foi mantida até 12 dias de incubação, porém com redução de 67,36%, 82,75% e 86,09% no número de J2 penetrados, fêmeas e massa de ovos, respectivamente. Em outro ensaio, os J2 foram incubados em água com temperaturas fixas de 5 ºC, 10 ºC e 28 ºC, e por 10 horas em temperaturas variadas de 5 ºC ou 10 ºC complementadas com 14 h a 28 ºC. A patogenicidade em soja foi realizada a cada 5 dias de incubação durante 20 dias. O aumento do período de incubação dos J2 de M. javanica nas temperaturas contínuas de 5 e 28 ºC reduziram a penetração, número de fêmeas, massas de ovos, total de ovos e ovos por grama de raiz. A incubação contínua dos J2 a 10 o C por qualquer período não afetou a penetração e proporcionou pequena redução no número de fêmeas e na reprodução ao longo dos 20 dias de incubação. Quando os J2 foram expostos a 28 ºC por 14 h as variáveis avaliadas comportaram-se semelhantemente à exposição contínua de 24 h a 28ºC.Palavras-chave adicionais: nematóide de galhas, energia corporal, patogenicidade, Glycine max. ABSTRACT Effect of timing and temperature of incubation of second stage juveniles (J2) on body lipid content and parasitism of Meloidogyne javanica in soybean.The environmental temperature and the body lipid content of second stage juveniles (J2) of Meloidogyne javanica affect its parasitism on the host. So, in this work, it was studied the relationship of body lipid content and temperature with incubation period in water of J2 of M. javanica from 2 to 12 days, and the parasitism in soybean. The body lipid content of J2 decreased significantly from 2 to 12 days of incubation. However, the pathogenicity of J2 was kept until 12 days of incubation, with reduction of 67,36%, 82,75% and 86,09% on the number of penetrated J2, females and eggs mass, respectively. In another assay, J2 were incubated in water for 20 days at constant temperatures of 5 o C, 10 o C and 28 o C, and at varied temperatures of 10 h at 5 o C or 10 o C and complemented with 14 h at 28 o C. Every 5 day incubation, J2 pathogenicity was evaluated by inoculating them in soybean. Increase on incubation period of J2 of M. javanica at continued temperatures of 5 and 28 o C reduced penetration, numbers of females, egg mass, total of eggs and eggs per gram of root. The continued incubation of J2 at 10 o C per any period of time did not affect penetration and gave slow reduction during 20 day...
Fatores abióticos influenciam a multiplicação celular, o desenvolvimento embrionário, bem como a sobrevivência e eclosão de juvenis do segundo estádio (J2) de Meloidogyne spp. O efeito relativo à temperatura constante tem sido estudado com várias espécies e populações de Meloidogyne. Entretanto, tem sido pouco pesquisado a flutuação de temperatura, a qual predomina no campo entre o dia e a noite ou durante períodos de predominância de massas polares. Assim, objetivou-se estudar o efeito da flutuação de temperatura em ovos de M. javanica com estádios de desenvolvimento padronizados. Quando foram usados ovos com juvenis já formados, maior percentual de eclosão ocorreu em temperatura fixa de 28 ºC, mas a redução do tempo de exposição a esta temperatura reduziu a eclosão. A exposição dos ovos por 10 horas a 10 ºC, seguido de 14 horas a 28 ºC, proporcionou maior eclosão dos J2 em relação ao mesmo período de exposição mas a 5 ºC seguido de 14 horas a 28 ºC. Já a incubação em temperatura constante de 10 ºC proporcionou menor taxa de eclosão. Ovos no estádio de duas células incubados em temperatura constante de 28 ºC tiveram a multiplicação celular e o desenvolvimento embrionário acelerado em relação às alternadas. Em temperatura constante de 10 ºC ocorreu apenas a multiplicação celular, após a incubação dos ovos por 12 dias. Entretanto, quando incubados por períodos de 10 horas a 10 ºC seguido de 14 horas a 28 ºC ocorreram a formação de juvenis e eclosão de J2, porém significativamente inferior às observadas em temperatura constante de 28 ºC. Em temperaturas de 5 ºC por 10 horas seguida de 28 ºC por 14 horas, não proporcionou eclosão de juvenis no período de 12 dias. Nos ovos ocorreram apenas os estádios pluricelulares, gástrula e "tadpole". Portanto, a temperatura constante de 10 ºC permite apenas a multiplicação celular, e o intervalo de temperatura entre 5 ºC e 10 ºC afeta drasticamente os processos envolvidos no desenvolvimento embrionário de M. javanica.
Com vista ao estudo de atração e penetração de Meloidogyne javanica (Treub) Chitwood e Heterodera glycines (Ichinoe) em soja (Glycine max L.), desenvolveu-se uma técnica empregando-se segmento de raiz com 2cm de comprimento. Nos segmentos de raiz de soja infectados, observou-se que a penetração de juvenis de segundo estádio (J2) de M. javanica ocorre pela coifa seguida de migração entre os feixes vasculares do cilindro central. Juvenis de H. glycines penetraram, aproximadamente, 15mm da coifa. A região seccionada da raiz de soja atraiu três vezes mais J2 de M. javanica do que a região da coifa, mas esta não foi tão atrativa para J2 de H. glycines. A obstrução conjunta da coifa e do local seccionado reduziu (83%) a penetração de J2, tanto de M. javanica quanto de H. glycines. Quando apenas um desses locais foi obstruído, a outra extremidade livre compensou o processo atrativo. Portanto, as substâncias atrativas são liberadas por essas extremidades. A penetração de J2 de M. javanica foi maior no segmento de raiz quando comparada com a plântula intacta de soja. Entretanto, os J2 de H. glycines penetraram menos em segmentos de raiz e em plântulas sem folhas, quando comparados com plântulas intactas e com as seccionadas no colo. Portanto, na cultivar de soja "Embrapa 20", a atração e os locais de penetração de J2 de H. glycines e M. javanica são diferenciados. Esta técnica poderá ser útil nos estudos de atração e penetração de outros nematoides endoparasitas.
