Reação e resistência de porta-enxertos de tomateiro à murcha de fusário

Abstract

The aim of this research was to verify the reaction of tomato rootstocks to race 3 of F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici and his resistance to races 1 and 2. It was tested the rootstocks: Guardião, Helper-M, Anchor-T, Dr K, Kagemusha, Block, Magnet and He-man and, as a control, the cultivars 'Kada', 'Santa Clara', 'Gisele', 'BHRS 2,3'. The experimental design was a completely randomized type, with split-plots and 5 replicates. The rootstocks and cultivars were allocated in principal plot, and the 3 races of F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici, in the sub-plots. The plants were inoculated and maintained in vegetation house with temperature and humidity controlled. The rootstock was assessed by the severity of disease infection in the xylem. All rootstock were resistant to races 1 and 2 of F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici and only Guardian and Block were resistant to race 3.
