The present project proposes to continue epidemiological studies, at a regional level, to identify amplifier hosts responsible for frequent epidemics of diseases caused by tomato severe rugose virus (ToSRV) and tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV) in solanaceous crops in different producing regions of the country. Basic studies of the molecular characteristics of begomovirus and crinivirus, as w…
Disease management entails two broad types of decision: tactical or strategic. Tactical decisions are made in the course of a growing season, and involve disease management instruments of short term; a typical example is the use of pesticide. Because tactical decisions are made in the course of a growing season, the corresponding framework of decision-making is often reactive, and is depe…
This research project comprehends seven modules. Its joint analysis will allow a better understanding of the structure and behavior of diseases caused by begomovirus and crinivirus in Sotanaceae in Brazil, a sine qua non condition for the design of a more rational system of integrated management. The modules have the following titles and objectives: (1) Molecular biology - detection and c…
Tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV) belongs to the genus Crinivirus, is transmitted by whiteflies and was recently detected in Brazil. Due to the great losses it causes, it is a threat on tomato production in many parts of the world. Additionally, it is known that ToCV help the breakdown of resistance to Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) on resistant cultivars containing the SW-5 gene. In Brazil…

In Brazil the 2009-2010 soybean crop took up an area of 23.06 million hectares. That result constitutes in the second largest sown area. Total production was estimated in 69.7 million tons and productivity in 2,941 kg / ha. Diseases are among the factors that can reduce soybean productivity. Approximate 40 diseases caused by fungi, bacteria, nematodes and viruses had been identified in Br…
