Abstract
Myrtle rust severely impacts guava cultivation. Currently, no rust-resistant guava cultivars have been found. This study aimed to identify rust-resistant plants from interspecific crosses of Psidium spp. using mixed models. Twenty-six crosses were evaluated in a greenhouse from September to October 2020. Inoculation was performed on young leaves and floral buds, and characteristics such as the latent period, infectious period, and area under the disease progress curve were measured to determine variance components and genetic parameters. Genotypic values were analyzed, and clones were ranked using mixed models. The genetic, environmental, and broad-sense heritability values varied from moderate to high. Mixed models revealed genetic variability for rust resistance. Clones from the Cv1 x Cv11 and Cv8 x Cv11 crosses were immune to rust. The P36 x P11 cross exhibited variability. The results of this study indicate the selection of clones that are immune and resistant to rust for use in future recombination.
期刊介绍:
The European Journal of Plant Pathology is an international journal publishing original articles in English dealing with fundamental and applied aspects of plant pathology; considering disease in agricultural and horticultural crops, forestry, and in natural plant populations. The types of articles published are :Original Research at the molecular, physiological, whole-plant and population levels; Mini-reviews on topics which are timely and of global rather than national or regional significance; Short Communications for important research findings that can be presented in an abbreviated format; and Letters-to-the-Editor, where these raise issues related to articles previously published in the journal. Submissions relating to disease vector biology and integrated crop protection are welcome. However, routine screenings of plant protection products, varietal trials for disease resistance, and biological control agents are not published in the journal unless framed in the context of strategic approaches to disease management.
