Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of Banana streak virus (BSV) on the nutritional status and yield of 'BRS Thap Maeo' banana plants cultivated in the state of Amazonas, Brazil. Thirty-six plants were analyzed: 18 with and 18 without visible BSV symptoms. The infected plants showed nutritional disorders, with reduced fo...
Analyzing the impacts of climate change on phytosanitary problems in Brazil is crucial due to the country’s special role in global food security as one of the largest producers of essential commodities. This review focuses on the effects of climate change on plant diseases and discusses its main challenges in light of Brazil’s diverse agricultural ...
ABSTRACT: Guinea grass (Megathyrsus maximus) is widely used as a forage crop in Brazil, but its production faces disease threats. Recently, new symptoms, such as oblong to irregular brown lesions on leaves, have emerged in M. maximus across the country. Particularly severe symptoms were observed in the BRS Tamani cultivar, and some other genotypes ...

Abstract: Coconut cultivation faces serious challenges caused by pests and diseases, whose targets are often not reached by conventional application methods such as spraying and soil application. New control strategies, such as vegetative endotherapy, have emerged, but knowledge gaps persist regarding many aspects, especially in pesticide transloca...
The sclerotia wilt in cowpea caused by the fungus Sclerotium rolfsii has in chemical control an inefficient option. Essential oils have antifungal properties, constituting an alternative to agrochemicals. Here, we evaluated the efficiency of essential oils in the control of S. rolfsii, from seed treatment, as well as their effect on seed germinatio...

Guava decline is a complex disease caused by the interaction between Meloidogyne enterolobii and Neocosmospora falciformis (Syn.: Fusarium solani). Thus, selecting M. enterolobii-resistant genotypes within the genus Psidiumis essential for controlling this disease, and developing a resistant cultivar of Psidium guajava could significantly impact th...
