Response of cold tolerant sorghum lines to Fusarium moniliforme (Sheldon)

Three experiments were carried out in order to: 1. evaluate grain yield and dry matter distribution of 10 cold tolerant lines, inoculated or not with F. moniliforme under greenhouse conditions; 2. characterize the reaction to this pathogen of 196 F5 cold tolerant lines inoculated under field conditi...

Zusammenfassung:Three experiments were carried out in order to: 1. evaluate grain yield and dry matter distribution of 10 cold tolerant lines, inoculated or not with F. moniliforme under greenhouse conditions; 2. characterize the reaction to this pathogen of 196 F5 cold tolerant lines inoculated under field conditions; and 3. evaluate the natural incidence of F. moniliforme. Plants were inoculated at anthesis, by injecting 0.5 mL of a suspension of 5 x 10 conidia per mL to the peduncle of each plant. In the greenhouse, control plants (not inoculated) showed disease symptoms due to natural infection, and grain yield of inoculated plants was 6.4 % lower than the controls. In the field, there were five F5 lines with B response and seven with R response that showed low infection levels in inoculated plants. The natural incidence of this fungus is enough to cause lesions after minor physical damage to the plant. There are promising genetic sources with some tolerance to F. moniliforme among F5 cold tolerantlines. Se efectuaron tres experimentos para: 1. Evaluar el rendimiento de grano y la distribucion de la materia seca de 10 lineas de sorgo tolerantes al frio, inoculadas con el hongo, en condiciones de invernadero; 2. Caracterizar la reaccion a este hongo, mediante inoculaciones en campo, de 196 lineas F5 tolerantes al frio; y 3. Evaluar la incidencia natural. La inoculacion se hizo en la etapa de antesis, aplicando al pedunculo de cada planta una dosis de 0.5 mL de una suspension de 5 x 10 conidios por mL. En el invernadero los testigos (sin inocular) presentaron sintomas de la enfermedad por infeccion natural, y el rendimiento de grano de las plantas inoculadas fue 6.4 % inferior al de los testigos respectivos. En campo se identificaron cinco lineas F5 de respuesta B y siete de respuesta R que mostraron bajos niveles de infeccion al inocularles el hongo. La incidencia natural del hongo es tan grande que es suficiente con causar una herida leve a las plantas para que la enfermedad se exprese. Entre las lineas F5 tolerantes al frio existen fuentes geneticas promisorias con cierta tolerancia a F. moniliforme.
