Diagrammatic Scales for Assessing Brown Eye Spot (Cercospora coffeicola) in Red and Yellow Coffee Cherries

Abstract: Brazil is the world's largest coffee producer. Brown eye spot (BES) (Cercospora coffeicola) is a major crop disease that can cause 15-30% production losses and decrease the coffee beverage quality. Although the influence of this disease on beverage quality has been studied, diagrammatic scales for assessment of the disease severity in berries are still unexplored. Thus, this study has developed and validated diagrammatic scales to assess the severity of BES. Two diagrammatic scales were designed to assess the … Show more

“…Most deviations were negative, indicating a tendency towards severity underestimation. These results are similar to those found in diagrammatic scale validation studies involving other pathosystems, such as fruit and leaf diseases of papaya (18,24) and brown eye spot in red and yellow coffee cherries (13). Accuracy of visual severity estimates without the diagrammatic scale indicated average R 2 values of 0.59, within the range from 0.20 to 0.79, and amplitude around 0.59.…”

“…These scales are subjective, not permitting the visual acuity adjustment in assessing severity levels (Campbell & Madden, 1990), impairing the accurate quantification of the injured area (Santos et al, 2017). On the other hand, diagrammatic scales or standard area diagram sets (SADs) not only improve the accuracy and the precision of disease evaluations, but also demonstrate significant improvements in the visual estimates of severity (Damasceno et al, 2014;De Paula et al, 2016;Santos et al, 2017). Thus, they are valuable tools in breeding programs, whose success is achieved depending on the exact and accurate use of quantification methods of disease severity and selection of resistant materials (Librelon et al, 2015).…”

“…Disease assessment should be easy and quick to perform and produce accurate and reproducible estimates, o diagrammatic scales arevaluable tools for identifying variations in disease resistance between genotypes. Using diagrammatic scales, the accuracy and precision of disease severity estimates are significantly improved, resulting in less experimental errors (De Paula et al, 2016;Lage et al, 2015;Santos et al, 2017). Consequently, there is a greater reliability of heritability estimates for resistance to the disease, increasing potential gains from genetic improvement through selection (Vieira et al, 2014).…”
