A total of 131 diversity; novel; endophytic fungal isolates belonging to eighteen species and nine genera were obtained therapeutic agents from three hundred and thirty surface sterilized segments of different tissues of B. aristata. The isolated fungi were classified on the basis of morphological and molecular analysis. Diversity and species richness was found to be higher in leaf tissues as compared to root and stem. Antibacterial activity demonstrated that the crude ethyl acetate extract of 80% isolates exhibited significant results against one or more bacterial pathogens. Ethyl acetate extract of Alternaria macrospora was found to have potential antibacterial activity. Significant antioxidant activity was also found in crude ethyl acetate extracts of Alternaria alternata and Aspergillus flavus. Similarly, antagonistic activity of the fungal endophytes revealed that all antagonists possessed inhibition potential against more than one fungal pathogen. This study is an important step towards tapping endophytic fungal diversity for bioactive metab- olites which could be a step forward towards development of novel therapeutic agents. 1.

  • Anthracnose and Berry Disease of Coffee in Puerto Rico 1
    Anthracnose and Berry Disease of Coffee in Puerto Rico 1 J.S. Mignucci, P.R. Hepperly, J. Ballester and C. Rodriguez-Santiago2 ABSTRACT A survey revealed that Anthracnosis (Giomerella cingulata asex. Colletotri­ chum gloeosporioides) was the principal aboveground disease of field coffee in Puerto Rico. Isolates of C. gloeosporioides from both diseased soybeans and coffee caused typical branch necrosis in coffee after in vitro inoculation. Noninoculated checks showed no symptoms of branch necrosis or dieback. Necrotic spots on coffee berries collected from the field were associated with the coffee anthracnose fungus (C. gloeosporioides), the eye spot fungus (Cercospora coffeicola) and the scaly bark or collar rot fungus (Fusarium stilboides ). Typical lesions were dark brown, slightly depressed and usually contained all three fungi. Fascicles of C. coffeicola conidiophores formed a ring inside the lesion near its periphery. Acervuli of C. gloeosporioides and the sporodochia of F. stilboides were mixed in the center of the lesions. Monthly fungicide sprays (benomyl plus captafol) and double normal fertilization (454 g 10-5-15 with micronutrientsjtree, every 3 months) partially controlled berry spotting. Double normal fertilizer applications alone appeared to reduce the number of diseased berries by approximately 41%, but fungicide sprays gave 57% control. Combining high rate of fertilization and fungicide applications resulted in a reduction of approximately 85% of diseased berries. INTRODUCTION Coffee ( Coffea arabica) is a major crop in Puerto Rico, particularly on the humid northern slopes of the western central mountains. The 1979- 80 crop was harvested from about 40,000 hectares yielding over 11,350,000 kg with a value of $44 millions.

    Abundance of pests and diseases in Arabica coffee production systems in Uganda - ecological mechanisms and spatial analysis in the face of climate change Von der Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakult¨atder Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Universit¨atHannover zur Erlangung des Grades Doktorin der Gartenbauwissenschaften (Dr. rer. hort.) genehmigte Dissertation von Theresa Ines Liebig, Dipl.-Agr.Biol. 2017 Referent: Prof. Dr. rer. nat.

Edgar Maiss Tag der Promotion: 17.07.2017 External supervisors / advisers Dr. Jacques Avelino Dr. Peter L¨aderach Dr. Piet van Asten Dr. Laurence Jassogne Funding Claussen Simon Stiftung Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development Abstract Coffee production worldwide is threatened by a range of coffee pests and diseases (CPaD). Integrated management options require an understanding of the bioecology of CPaD and the prevalent interdependencies within the agroecological context. The comparison of different shading systems (e.g. shade-grown vs. sun-grown coffee) and the identification of trade- offs for ecosystem services is still a matter of ongoing debates. There is little quantitative knowledge of field-level investigation on shade effects and its ecological mechanisms across environmental and shading system gradients. Considering the increasingly evident effects of progressive climate change on CPaD, the need to examine the balance of shade effects under different environmental conditions becomes apparent. With the example of the coffee grow- ing region of Mt Elgon, Uganda, this project aimed at addressing the complexity of shading effects on economically relevant CPaD using environmental and production system gradients. The approach was designed in an interdisciplinary manner, to involve the broader context of coffee agroforestry systems.

    Journal of Biology, Agriculture and Healthcare www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-3208 (Paper) ISSN 2225-093X (Online) Vol.6, No.19, 2016 A Review on the Status of Coffee Berry Disease (Colletotrichum kahawae ) in Ethiopia Gabisa Giddisa Summary Ethiopia has served in the past and continues to serve as the source of germplasm for several economically important cultivated crops around the world. Coffee is a non-alcoholic and stimulant beverage crop, and belongs to the family Rubiaceae and the genus Coffea. This commercially as well as genetically valuable crop is attacked by a number of pre- and post-harvest diseases, and of these diseases, coffee berry disease (CBD), coffee wilt disease (CWD) and coffee leaf rust (CLR) are the most important in Ethiopia. CBD is by far the most economically important disease causing up to 100% losses in some places.CBD is a major cause of crop loss of arabica coffee in Africa and a dangerous threat to production elsewhere. Prevalence of CBD was conducted in Oromiya Region and Southern Nations Nationalities and Peoples Region (SNNPR) and the result indicated 38.8 and 17.2% of mean percent prevalence of the disease, respectively (IAR, 1997). According to the result CBD pressure was very high at higher altitudes in the southwest region, while severe disease was recorded in valleys of Sidamo zone. In Amhara region where CBD occurs, survey result showed that an average CBD severity for the 1996/97-crop season was 38%.The occurrence and intensity of CBD varies from place to place and from one season to the other, depending largely on host susceptibility, pathogen aggressiveness and favorable weather conditions.

(2009). Characterization of Colletotrichum species associated with coffee berries in northern Thailand. Fungal Diversity 39: 89-109. The identity of Colletotrichum species on Coffea (coffee) is not clearly understood. We report on Colletotrichum species associated with coffee berries in northern Thailand and compare them to species reported to cause coffee berry disease elsewhere. Morphological, cultural, biochemical and pathogenic characters, together with DNA sequence analyses resulted in the isolates clustering into three species: Colletotrichum asianum sp. nov., C. fructicola sp. nov. and C. siamense sp. nov. Phylogeny inferred from combined datasets of partial actin, β-tubulin (tub2), calmodulin, glutamine synthetase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase genes and the complete rDNA ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 regions revealed groupings that are congruent with morphological characters. Biochemical and DNA sequence data from multi-genes used here provided reliable data to differentiate between C. kahawae, C. gloeosporioides and the new Colletotrichum species.
