Growth and canopy traits affected by myrtle rust (Austropuccinia psidii Winter) in Eucalyptus grandis x Eucalyptus urophylla

Abstract: Austropuccinia psidii Winter, causal agent of myrtle rust, is one of the main pathogens in Eucalyptus plantations in Brazil. We investigated the effects of the pathogen on wood yield and light use efficiency (LUE) in a Eucalyptus grandis x Eucalyptus urophylla clone in a field trial at the end of a five‐year rotation. The study comprised two treatments that are commonly adopted by managers. One treatment with curative fungicide spray (Triadimenol 250 g l−1) seven months after planting and another with five pre… Show more

“…The crown diameter is also highly correlated with the stem diameter [9], which influences the plantation yield. In addition, crown development is connected with the sanity and nutritional status of the tree [10], and reveals an interaction with climate variables such as the wind and temperature [11].…”

“…The eucalyptus clone was purchased in a nursery and was 45 days old. The clone was selected for its profitability, fast growth, high productivity and high-quality wood [15]. Each plot had a 150 mm PVC (polyvinyl chloride) tube, cut horizontally to form rings.…”

“…Although the genetic improvement of this crop is at an advanced stage, another determining factor for the higher productivity of eucalyptus plantations is the control of diseases, pests and weeds [15,16]. Competition with weeds is a limiting factor for the development of most forest species [17].…”
