RESUMO

The ramulosis, caused by Colletotrichum gossypii var.cephalosporioides is one of the most important disease of cotton in Brazil. The fungus is transported and transmited by seeds and is an important initial inoculum source. The objectives of this research were i) to study the effect of germination inhibitors on the germination, length of radicle and incidence of the pathogen in the seeds; ii) to evaluate the effect of incidence levels in the seeds and the chemical control of canopy on the progress of ramulosis; iii) to study the transmission of the pathogen from plant to seeds in function of incidence of disease. Based on results it was observed that the Manitol and NaCl in the osmotic potential of -0,8 MPa reduced the germination, the length of radicle and did not caused decrease in the incidence of the pathogen in the seeds. The area under curve of progress of incidence and severity of ramulosis was higher, as much as the level of incidence in the seeds, independent of sprays number in the 2006 year. In the 2007 year the area under curve of progress of incidence and severity of ramulosis was dependent of sprays number. It was higher as much as the level of incidence in the seeds, but it was reduced according to the number of sprays was increased. There was not effect of disease intensity on the yield in the studied years, but in the year which the disease was more severe, the cottonseed yield was reduced. There was positive and significant correlation between the level of initial inoculum at 40 days after seedling emergence and the incidence of ramulosis when 70% of bolls were completely developed. There was positive and significant correlation between the incidence of disease in the field and the incidence of the pathogen in the seeds.
