Tratamento químico de sementes sobre o desenvolvimento de mancha marrom em plantas de trigo / Chemical treatment in seeds on the development of the spot blotch in wheat plants

O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar o efeito dos fungicidas difenoconazole e carboxin + thiram aplicados em sementes de trigo cultivares 'CD 104' e 'OR Mirante', inoculadas com Cochliobolus sativus. O delineamento experimental foi inteiramente casualizado, em esquema fatorial 2x3 (2 cultivares e 2 fungicidas + testemunha sem controle) em sete repetições. O fungo foi isolado e reproduzido em meio de cultura BDA (batata-dextrose-ágar) e, posteriormente, multiplicado em sementes de trigo pré-cozidas, constituindo a fonte de inóculo. As avaliações foram do número de lesões na folha basal de cinco plantas por vaso aos 22, 25, 29, 31, 35 e 38 dias após a semeadura (DAS) e aos 41 dias foram avaliados o comprimento (cm), massa fresca (g) e seca (g) da parte aérea e das raízes. A partir das avaliações do número de lesões, também foi calculada a área abaixo da curva de progresso da doença (AACPD), cujos dados foram submetidos à análise de variância e as médias comparadas pelo teste de Tukey, a 5% de probabilidade. A cultivar 'CD 104' foi mais suscetível ao patógeno do que 'OR Mirante'; difenoconazole foi eficiente no controle da doença na parte aérea, enquanto carboxin + thiram se igualou à testemunha; os dois fungicidas interferiram negativamente no desenvolvimento das plantas, uma vez que as médias de comprimento, massa fresca e seca da parte aérea e das raízes obtidas das sementes tratadas é inferior à média das sementes não tratadas.

The objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of fungicides difenoconazole and carboxin + thiram applied in seed wheat cultivars 'CD 104' and 'OR Mirante', inoculated with Cochliobolus sativus. The experimental design was completely randomized in a 2x3 factorial design (2 cultivars and 2 fungicides + untreated control) in seven replications. The fungi was isolated and reproduced in PDA culture medium (potato-dextrose-agar) and subsequently multiplied in seeds of wheat pre-cooked and is the source of inoculum. The evaluations were the number of lesions in the basal leaf of five plants per pot at 22, 25, 29, 31, 35 and 38 days after sowing (DAS), and at 41DAS were evaluated the length (cm), fresh weight (g) and dry weight (g) of shoot and root. From the evaluations of the number of lesions was also calculated the area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC). The datas were subjected to analysis of variance and means were compared by Tukey test at 5% probability. The 'CD 104' cultivar was more susceptible to the pathogen than 'OR Mirante'; difenoconazole was efficient to control the disease as carboxin + thiram equaled the witness; both fungicides interfered negatively on plant development, since the average length, fresh weight and dry shoot and root obtained from treated seed is lower than the untreated seeds.

Mechanism of action of carboxin and the development of resistance in yeast.

Carboxin prevents the growth of yeast by inhibiting protein synthesis; the resumption of growth in the presence of this chemical appears to be primarily due to a cellular alteration affecting carboxin entry into the cells.
