Reaction to diseases and yield of eleven cultivars of sour-passion fruit cultivated with no pesticides

Abstract

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a reação às doenças e a produtividade de 11 cultivares de maracujazeiro, nos primeiros seis meses de colheita no Distrito Federal. Para evitar herbicidas, utilizou-se sobre o tubo gotejador, uma lona de polietileno preta com 1,20 m em largura ao longo das fileiras. O híbrido EC-RFM (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa x P. edulis) foi o mais produtivo e o menos suscetível à virose do endurecimento do fruto (PWV), à antracnose e à septoriose do fruto. Todas as cultivares foram suscetíveis à verrugose e à bacteriose no fruto. Houve pouca variabilidade entre as cultivares para resistência às doenças.The objective of this work was to evaluate the reaction to diseases and the yield of eleven sour-passion fruit cultivars during the first six months of harvesting in the Federal District, Brazil. Weeds were controlled using a polyethylene black cloth (mulching) with 1.20 m large on the tape of dripping irrigation along the planting line. The hybrid EC-RFM (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa x P. edulis) had the best yield and it was less susceptible to woodiness virus (PWV), fruit-anthracnose and septoriose. All cultivars were susceptible to fruit-scab and bacterial spot. All cultivars evaluated presented low genetic variability to disease resistance
