Small Peruvian coffee producers face low yields per hectare, caused mainly by recent rust outbreaks and by natural crossing of coffee varieties, which are sown without specific order. Coffee rust has drastically reduced areas of susceptible but high-quality cup varieties as caturra, pache, and nacional, which have been replaced by others with high grain weight, but low-quality cup. This study aimed to determine the rooting capacity of sprouts subjected to different concentrations of indole-3-butyric acid (AIB) in three varieties of Coffea arabica, in the San Martín region, Peru. The most appropriate sprout rooting characteristics allowing to propagate rust-tolerant C. arabica plants were evaluated, under the effect of four doses of AIB (0, 1000, 2000, and 3000 ppm) in three coffee varieties (caturra, pache, and nacional), using microtunnels as rooting environments. A completely randomiz...

A new fungal species of the Glomeromycetes, Acaulospora aspera, was isolated from the rhizosphere of the inka nut (Plukenetia volubilis) in San Martin State of Peru (Western Amazonia) and propagated in bait cultures on Sorghum spp., Brachiaria brizantha, Medicago sativa and P. volubilis as host plants. The fungus forms brownish yellow to yellow brown spores, (120-)135-195 x (120-)130-187 mu m in diameter. The surface of the structural spore wall layer is crowded with small depressions, 0.4-0.7 mu m in diameter, up to 0.8 mu m deep, and only 1.1-1.8 apart, giving the spore surface a rough, washboardlike appearance, especially when the outermost, evanescent wall layer has disappeared. Phylogenetically, the new species is close to A. spinosissima, A. excavata and to other morphologically more similar species such as A. spinosa and A. tuberculata, which form spiny or tuberculate projections ...

La gestión de la investigación, el desarrollo tecnológico y la innovación (I+D+i) en la UNSM muestra avances notables en los últimos años. Ello se evidencia en la continua evolución de los indicadores de gestión y de resultados de la investigación, así como la articulación y consolidación del ecosistema de I+D+i que impulsa nuestra casa superior de estudio, con los principales actores de desarrollo en la región San Martín.

A new arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus was found in agricultural field sites in the Amazonia lowlands of the Department San Martin, Perú. It was found up to 858 m above sea level in two plantations of the inka nut (also called ‚sacha inchi', Plukenetia volubilis), which was grown in mixed cultures together with Musa sp., Zea mays, Phaseolus vulgaris and Carica papaya. The fungus was propagated in bait cultures in a greenhouse on Sorghum sp., Brachiaria sp., Medicago sativa and Plukenetia volubilis as host plants. The fungus differentiates orange brown to dark orange brown, triple-layered spores, 93-151× 90-148 µm in diameter, terminally on funnel-shaped to rarely cylindrical or slightly inflating hyphae, and a strong, straight to slightly recurved septum that closes the spore pore at the spore base. Phylogenetically, the new fungus represents clearly a new genus in a separated clade, n...

El uso de mutágenos químicos es una herramienta muy utilizada para la generación de nuevas variantes genéticas en diversos cultivos agrícolas. Se evaluó el uso Ethyl Methanesulphonate (EMS) en semillas de Plukenetia volubilis L. para determinar la concentración óptima de EMS que redujera la germinación y/o emergencia de las semillas hasta un 50.0%, y evaluar las alteraciones morfológicas y fisiológicas en plántulas de P. volubilis durante la primera generación. Se empleó un DCA simple con diferentes dosis (0.0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0% y 3.0%) de EMS en un solo tiempo de exposición (30 hrs.), más un control absoluto (semillas sin tratamiento), para evaluar la sensibilidad mutagénica de P. volubilis L.., considerando parámetros como porcentaje de emergencia, altura de planta, pérdida de dominancia apical, clorosis y deformación de las hojas. Los resultados mostraron que...

A new arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus was found in an agricultural plantation of Plukenetia volubilis, the inka nut (also called “sacha inchi” or “inka peanut”) in the Amazonia region of San Martín State in Peru. In this site, the inka nut was grown in mixed cultures together with Zea mays and Phaseolus vulgaris. The fungus was propagated in bait and single-species cultures on Sorghum vulgare, Brachiaria brizantha, Medicago sativa, and Plukenetia volubilis as host plants. The fungus differentiates hyaline spores terminally or intercalary on cylindrical to slightly funnel-shaped hyphae, singly or in spore clusters with up to ca. 90 spores per cluster. The spores are bi-layered, (20–)25–36(–45) μm in diameter and show regularly a visible septum at the spore base, despite the small spore and tiny hyphae sizes. Phylogenetically, the new fungus represents a new genus in a separa...

A new arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus, Acaulospora flava, was found in coffee (Coffea arabica) and inka nut (Plukenetia volubilis) plantations in the Amazonia region of San Martín State in Peru. The fungus was propagated in bait cultures on Sorghum vulgare, Brachiaria brizantha and Medicago sativa as host plants. It differentiates typical acaulosporoid spores laterally on sporiferous saccule necks. The spores are light yellow, bright yellow to yellow brown, (95-)105-160 × (95-)100-150 μm in diameter and have smooth spore surfaces. Phylogenetically, A. flava clusters in a well-separated clade, nearest to A. kentinensis, followed by A. herrerae, A. spinosissima, A. excavata and A. aspera, of which remarkably A. spinosissima, A. excavata and A. aspera had also been found in inka nut plantations of San Martín State during the last years. Here, we report also A. herrerae and A. fragilissima...

A new arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus, Paraglomus occidentale, was found in an agricultural plantation of the inka nut (Plukenetia volubilis) in the Amazonia region of San Martín State in Peru. The inka nut was grown in mixed cultures together with Zea mays and Phaseolus vulgaris. The fungus was propagated in bait and single species cultures on Sorghum vulgare, Brachiaria brizantha, Medicago sativa and P. volubilis as host plants. The fungus differentiates hyaline spores terminally on cylindrical to slightly funnel-shaped hyphae, singly in soils or rarely in roots. The hyaline spores have a triple layered outer wall and a bi- to triple-layered inner wall. They are (59)69–84(92) µm in diameter. The new fungus is distinguished from all other known Paraglomus spp. by spore wall structure including staining characteristics in Melzer’s reagent, which is yellow-grayish to grayish on the ou...

La utilización de extractos vegetales como insecticidas naturales es una alternativa eficiente y ecológicamente viable para el uso directo en el control de plagas. En el estudio se evaluó el efecto de diferentes concentraciones de resina de Jatropha curcas en el control de larvas de Hypsipyla grandella Zéller, para el efecto en un Diseño Completamente al Azar (DCA), en esquema de parcelas subdivididas, se evaluaron cinco tratamientos, en tres repeticiones y 10 discos foliares de S. macrophylla por unidad experimental. Las parcelas principales consistieron en cinco concentraciones (%) de resina de J. curcas: T1:0; T2: 10; T3: 20; T4: 30; y T5: 40 y las subparcelas en los tiempos de evaluación (horas): 6, 12, 18 y 24 en el transcurso del día. Como variables medidas se incluyeron el consumo del disco foliares-CDF (%), el incremento de consumo foliar-ICF (%), la sobrevivencia-SL (%), ...

In this 8th contribution to the Fungal Systematics and Evolution series published by Sydowia, the authors formally describe 11 species: Cortinarius caryae, C. flavolilacinus, C. lilaceolamellatus, C. malodorus, C. olivaceolamellatus, C. quercophilus, C. violaceoflavescens, C. viridicarneus, Entoloma meridionale (Agaricales), Hortiboletus rupicapreus (Boletales), and Paraglomus peruvianum (Paraglomerales). The following new country records are reported: Bolbitius callistus (Agaricales) from Russia and Hymenoscyphus equiseti (Helotiales) from Sweden. Hymenoscyphus equiseti is proposed as a new combination for Lanzia equiseti, based on ITS and LSU sequence data in combination with morphological study.
