O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a resistência parcial de genótipos de soja ao fungo Phakopsora pachyrhizi. Calcularam-se o número médio de pústulas, a severidade e a área abaixo da curva de progresso da doença. Foram encontradas diferenças significativas entre os genótipos quanto ao número médio de pústulas e severidade, aos 12 dias após a inoculação. A análise de agrupamento permitiu a discriminação de genótipos parcialmente resistentes. Os genótipos G4, G41 e G42, referentes aos parentais Cristalina e IAC 100, foram detectados como os de maior resistência parcial à ferrugem da soja.The objective of this work was to evaluate the partial resistance of soybean genotypes against Phakopsora pachyrhizi. Resistance characteristics were: average number of pustules, rust severity and the area under the disease progress curve. Significant differences were found among the genotypes for the average number of pustules and rust severity. Multivariate analysis allowed the discrimination of partially resistant genotypes. Three genotypes (G4, G41, and G42), referring to parents Cristalina and IAC 100, presented greater partial resistance to soybean rust.

A fim de ampliar as opções ao cultivo da soja, a Universidade Federal de Uberlândia lançou a cultivar UFUS-Imperial, proveniente do cruzamento entre (Msoy 8411xMsoy 8914) x (Emgopa 313xTucano). A cultivar apresentou resistência ao acamamento, à deiscência da vagem e aos patógenos: Fusarium solani, Cercospora sojina, Peronospora manshurica, Xanthomonas campestris pv. glycines e Diaporthe phaseolorum f.sp. meridionalis, e resistência parcial a Septoria glycines, Erysiphe diffusa e Phakopsora pachyrhizi. O rendimento dessa cultivar, em ensaios regionais, foi 45% superior ao da testemunha Msoy 6101, e é indicada para o Estado de Mato Grosso.With the purpose of offering new options for soybean production, the Universidade Federal de Uberlândia released the cultivar UFUS-Imperial, originated from the crosses between (Msoy 8411xMsoy 8914) x (Emgopa 313xTucano). It showed resistance to lodging, to pod shattering, and to the pathogens Fusarium solani, Cercospora sojina, Peronospora manshurica, Xanthomonas campestris pv. glycines and Diaporthe phaseolorum f.sp. meridionalis, and partial resistance to Septoria glycines, Erysiphe diffusa, and Phakopsora pachyrhizi. Its average yield from uniform trials was 45% higher than that of the control Msoy 6101, and it is indicated for cultivation in the State of Mato Grosso.

A busca de alta produtividade na cultura da soja, sem onerar os custos de produção, é o objetivo do melhoramento genético. A cultivar UFUS Impacta é um genótipo de soja proveniente do cruzamento entre Cristalina RCH e IAC 100, de ciclo semi-tardio, com produtividade média superior às testemunhas Garantia e Emgopa 313 RCH. É resistente às principais moléstias da soja e indicada para cultivo no Estado de Minas Gerais.The search for soybean high yield without production costs increasing is the objective of genetic improvement. Cultivar UFUS Impacta is a soybean genotype originated from the cross between Cristalina RCH and IAC 100, semi-late maturity group, with an average productivity greater than the cheks Garantia and Emgopa 313 RCH. It is resistant to major soybean pathogens, and it is indicated for cultivation in the State of Minas Gerais, Brazil.

ABSTRACT Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) plays an important role in the cowpea cultivation. This study aimed to assess the foliar levels of chlorophyll and the yield components of cowpea subjected to combined inoculation of rhizobia in Cerrado soil. The experiment was carried out in field conditions, from December of 2014 to the march of 2015, in Rondonópolis, Mato Grosso, using randomized block design with ten treatments and three replicates. Were tested the single strains MT8 and MT15 (both of R. tropici), MT16 (R. leguminosarum), BR3267 (Bradyrhizobium japonicum), the strains combinations MT8+MT15, MT8+MT16, MT15+MT16, and MT8+MT15+MT16, nitrogen fertilization (70 kg ha-1 of N-urea), and absolute control (without inoculation of rhizobia and without nitrogen fertilization). Data were subjected to analysis of variance and the averages were compared by orthogonal contrast and F test (p≤0.05). Were assessed the Falker chlorophyll index (at the 40 and 60 days after sowing), number and dry matter of nodules (at the 40 days after sowing), number of pods per plant, grains yield, the concentration and accumulation of nitrogen in grains, and crude protein. The number of pods per plant was increased 33.6% in the combination MT8+MT15. The same effect was observed for the yield grain, which presented an increase of 8.7%, 13.8%, and 16.7% in the combinations MT8+MT16, MT15+MT16, and MT8+MT15, respectively. The nitrogen accumulation in the grains increased 42.7% with the inoculation of MT15 strain. The cowpea responds positively to the usage of combinations of rhizobia strains.
