Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of diazotrophic bacteria in the yield components of sugarcane infected with the ratoon stunting disease caused by Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli. The test was conducted at the Experimental Station Paranavaí, PR, 2010. The treatments consisted of genotype SP77-5181 inoculated with: 1. Azospirillum brasiliense strain AbV5 + Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli; 2. Herbaspirillum seropedicae strain SMR1 + Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli; 3. Herbaspirillum seropedicae strain HCC103 + Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli; 4. Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli; 5. All bacteria (Azospirillum brasiliense + Herbaspirillum seropedicae + Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli), 6. No inoculated treatment. Evaluations were made of: POL, tons of POL per hectare, fiber content, weight of a culm, number of stems per meter, height, stalk diameter and tons of cane per hectare for each treatment. The detection of the pathogen was analyzed by Dot blot. The design was a randomized block design with three replications. It was found that Herbaspirillumn seropedicae SMR1 strain, showed potential as biological control of colonization Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli, based on evidence such as increasing the mass of stalks. Apparently the bacteria Azospirillum brasiliense strain: AbV5 caused no detectable effects on yield components evaluated.
