guava diseases and their control

Using both, 87% success has been achieved. The green shield scale, Pulvinaria psidii, requires chemical measures in Florida, as does the guava white fly, Trialeurodes floridensis, and a weevil, Anthonomus irroratus, which bores holes in the newly forming fruits. Researchers at Kurukshetra University, India, have shown that treatment of harvested guavas with 100 ppm morphactin (chlorflurenol methyl ester 74050) increases the storage life of guavas by controlling fungal decay, and reducing loss of color, weight, sugars, ascorbic acid and non-volatile organic acids. 0000004430 00000 n Others have been tested and rated for resistance to Glomerella disease. h�bb�``b``Ń3� ���. 'Chittidar'–medium to large, round-ovate, white-fleshed, mild acid-sweet flavor; bears moderately well; keeps well; good for canning. If done in July, only 70%. 'Supreme' came next, of faint odor, thick, white flesh, relatively few, small seeds, high ascorbic acid content and ability to produce heavy crops over a period of 8 months from late fall to early spring. Among red-fleshed cultivars in India there are: 'Anakapalle'–small, with thin, red flesh, many seeds; not suitable for canning. It may range up to 350-450 mg in nearly ripe fruit. The red-banded thrips feed on leaves and the fruit surface. With only 37 calories in one fruit and … Between 1948 and 1969, 21 guava cultivars from 7 countries were introduced into Hawaii. Fungal diseases; Anthracnose leaf blight. Among acid, non-musky, thick-walled guavas, 'Beaumont', a Hawaiian selection, is large and pink-fleshed. 0000003015 00000 n Guava ( Psidium guajava) is a widely popular tropical fruit which cultivated in many tropical and subtropical regions of the world. 0000431481 00000 n Rows should always run north and south so that each tree receives the maximum sunlight. The method of controlling the Anthracnose disease is to plant resistant Guava cultivars; systemic and non-systemic fungicides are effective at controlling this disease and applied shortly before flowering and during fruit development. In Puerto Rico, up to 50% of the guava crop (mainly from wild trees) may be ruined by the uncontrollable fungus, Glomerella cingulata, which mummifies and blackens immature fruits and rots mature fruits. 0000005870 00000 n A clear guava juice with all the ascorbic acid and other properties undamaged by excessive heat, is made in South Africa by trimming and mincing guavas, mixing with a natural fungal enzyme (now available under various trade names), letting stand for 18 hours at 120º to 130º F (49º-54º C) and filtering. Guava: Diseases and symptoms. Collecting guava cultivars is a hobby of Mr. Arthur Stockdale, Finca Catalina, Zitacuaro, Mexico. Macrophomina sp. The fruit is large, with thick, deep-pink flesh, and fewer seeds than 'Beaumont', and is less acid. At the Horticultural Experiment and Training Center, Basti, India, a system of patch budding has been demonstrated as commercially feasible. Trials have been made of the shield, patch and Forkert methods of budding. Wood flowers: In Mexico, the tree may be parasitized by the mistletoe, Psittacanthus calyculatus Don, producing the rosette-like malformations called "wood flowers" which are sold as ornamental curiosities. Post harvest handling includes sorting, washing, grading, packaging, storage and transportation. In fact, it’s also been linked to a long list of health benefits, including improved heart health, enhanced immune function, decreased blood sugar levels and more. Guava trees are seriously damaged by the citrus flat mite, Brevipa1pus californicus in Egypt. %PDF-1.5 %���� The young fruits are rich in tannin. 1992. Light bearer; poor keeper. By 1981, 4 selections (GA9-39R1T2', 'GA11-56T7', GA11-56R5T2' and 'GA11-564T1') seemed to hold promise for processing and 2 selections ('GA11-56T3' and 'GA11-56R1T1') for marketing fresh. field diseases and post harvest diseases, which develop during transit and storage. Cuttings of half-ripened wood, 1/4 to 1/2 in (6-12.5 mm) thick will root with bottom heat or rooting-hormone treatment. In India, cockchafer beetles feed on the leaves at the end of the rainy season and their grubs, hatched in the soil, attack the roots. 0000010745 00000 n A disease survey was conducted on more than 50 accessions grown at the USDA/ARS Tropical Plant Genetic Resource Ripe guavas bruise easily and are highly perishable. If plant disease is suspected, careful attention to plant appearance can give a good clue regarding the type of pathogen involved. 'Red' X 'Supreme' X 'Ruby'–large, ovoid, with deep-pink flesh; agreeable for eating fresh. In recent years, the Cooperative Extension Service in Dade County, Florida, has distributed wasps that attack the larvae and pupae of the Caribbean fruit fly and have somewhat reduced the menace. Nutritional sprays providing copper and zinc are recommended thrice annually for the first 2 years and once a year thereafter. It has been reported in all guava-growing areas around the world where high rainfall and humidity are present. Generally, there are 2 crops per year in southern Puerto Rico; the heaviest, with small fruits, in late summer and early fall; another, with larger fruits, in late winter and early spring. To avoid fruit fly damage, fruits must be picked before full maturity and this requires harvesting at least 3 times a week. Leaf and fruit spot diseases commonly occur on guava grown in Hawaii. Good drainage is recommended but guavas are seen growing spontaneously on land with a high water table–too wet for most other fruit trees. It is made into sirup for use on waffles, ice cream, puddings and in milkshakes. Fruits punctured by insects are subject to mucor rot (caused by the fungus, Mucor hiemalis) in Hawaii. Fruits 32, 269-73. Light pruning is always recommended to develop a strong framework, and suckers should also be eliminated around the base. Glomerella graminicola [teleomorph] Glomerella tucumanensis Glomerella falcatum [anamorph] Aspergillus ear and kernel rot Aspergillus flavus: Banded leaf and sheath spot Rhizoctonia solani = … Very large, with little odor, white-fleshed and with relatively few seeds, it was at first considered promising but because of its excessively mild flavor, low ascorbic acid content, and susceptibility to algal spotting, it was abandoned in favor of better selections. In India, guava cultivation has been estimated at 125,327 acres (50,720 ha) yielding 27,319 tons annually. It is somewhat salt-resistant. Covers all disease types: bacterial, fungal, viral, nematode, and abiotic, and provides information on their cycles. Algal spotting of leaves and fruits (caused by Cephaleuros virescens) occurs in some cultivars in humid southern Florida but can be controlled with copper fungicides. 0000004529 00000 n They have been successully shipped from Miami to wholesalers in major northern cities in refrigerated trucks at temperatures of 45º to 55º F (7.22º-12.78º C). 0000470498 00000 n The guava seems indiscriminate as to soil, doing equally well on heavy clay, marl, light sand, gravel bars near streams, or on limestone; and tolerating a pH range from 4.5 to 9.4. Fruits coated with a 3% wax emulsion will keep well for 8 days at 72º to 86º F (22.2º-30º C) and 40 to 60% relative humidity, and for 21 days at 47º to 50º F (8.3º-10º C) and relative humidity of 85-90%. Inasmuch as guava trees cannot be depended upon to come true from seed, vegetative propagation is widely practiced. Next to the skin is a layer of somewhat granular flesh, 1/8 to 1/2 in (3-12.5 mm) thick, white, yellowish, light- or dark-pink, or near-red, juicy, acid, subacid, or sweet and flavorful. A famous guava, widely planted, but susceptible to wilt and branches are brittle and break readily. If trees bear too heavily, the branches may break. A sign of plant disease is physical evidence of the pathogen. Wilt is a pernicious disease of guava in India. Bogotà absorbs 40% of the production and preserved products are exported to markets in Venezuela and Panama. The nutrient is highly beneficial in building the immunity system of the body and helping it fight chronic diseases like diabetes. They often germinate in 2 to 3 weeks but may take as long as 8 weeks. Additional cultural control tactics used to aide in disease management include disease monitoring and the use of micro-irrigation. 0000011325 00000 n The green shield scale, Pulvinaria psidii, requires chemical measures in Florida, as does the guava white fly, Trialeurodes floridensis, and a weevil, Anthonomus irroratus, which bores holes in the newly forming fruits. Raw guavas are eaten out-of-hand, but are preferred seeded and served sliced as dessert or in salads. Treat black root rot by improving the soil. The primary method of controlling the disease is to plant resistant guava cultivars; both systemic and non-systemic fungicides are effective at controlling the disease and are usually applied shortly before flowering and during fruit develpment Pseudocercospora leaf spot Pseudocercospora psidii After the bud has "taken", 1/3 is cut from the top of the seedling; 2-3 weeks later, the rest of the top is cut off leaving only 3/4 to 1 1/4 in (2-3.2 cm) of stem above the bud. This disease can cause considerable postharvest losses and can affect young developing flowers and fruit. Higher temperatures cause some skin injury, as does a guazatine dip which is also a less effective fungicide. 0000002706 00000 n has been linked to fruit rot in Venezuela and Gliocladium roseum has been identified on rotting fruits on the market in India. Of the sweet, pink-fleshed, thick-walled cultivars examined, 'Hong Kong Pink' was preferred. Growers usually withhold irrigation after December or January or root-prune the trees in order to avoid a second crop. Only in recent years has there been a research program designed to evaluate and select superior types for vegetative propagation and large-scale cultivation. Ten days later, the shoots are banked with soil to a height 4 to 5 in (10-12.5 cm) above the ring. Young trees have been damaged or killed in cold spells at Allahabad, India, in California and in Florida. 'Karela'–medium-large, pear-shaped, furrowed, rough-skinned, with soft, granular, white flesh; sweet, rich, pleasant flavor. The tree is drought-tolerant but in dry regions lack of irrigation during the period of fruit development will cause the fruits to be deficient in size. Even if summers are too cool–a mean of 60º F (15.56º C)–in the coastal southern part of the state, the tree will die back and it cannot stand the intense daytime heat of interior valleys. (Also Read: 15 Amazing Guava Health Benefits) Apart from all the above-mentioned properties of guavas, you should know that guava is abound with many other important vitamins and minerals required for a healthy body.

Early Spanish and Portuguese colonizers were quick to carry it from the New World to the East Indies and Guam. A 40-acre (16 ha) guava grove was planted by Miami Fruit Industries at Indian-town in 1946. In many parts of the world, the guava runs wild and forms extensive thickets–called "guayabales" in Spanish–and it overruns pastures, fields and roadsides so vigorously in Hawaii, Malaysia, New Caledonia, Fiji, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Cuba and southern Florida that it is classed as a noxious weed subject to eradication. Now it occurs throughout the Pacific islands. Whiteflies, particularly Bemisia whiteflies, are a minor pest of guava trees and usually don’t require treatment to control their populations. In Hawaii, India and elsewhere, the tree has been grown from root cuttings. Guava seeds contain 14% of an aromatic oil, 15% protein and 13% starch. Numerous cultivated clones identified only by number have been evaluated for processing characters. The leaves are 10–20 cm (4–8 in) long with 5–7 lobes The plant produces flowers with five white to yellow petals which are 4–8 cm (1.6–3.1 in) in diameter. The leaves, aromatic when crushed, are evergreen, opposite, short-petioled, oval or oblong-elliptic, somewhat irregular in outline; 2 3/4 to 6 in (7-15 cm) long, I 'A to 2 in (3-5 cm) wide, leathery, with conspicuous parallel veins, and more or less downy on the underside. 0000032545 00000 n More commonly, the fruit is cooked and cooking eliminates the strong odor. 'Patricia'–very small, ovoid, salmon-fleshed; attractive; good to eat fresh but quickly loses its distinct strawberry flavor; good for sirup; very productive. Wilt, associated with the fungi Fusarium solani and Macrophomina phaseoli, brings about gradual decline and death of undernourished 1-to 5-year-old guava trees in West Bengal. In Palestine, the trees are cut back to 6 1/2 ft (2 m) every other spring to facilitate harvesting without ladders. Anthracnose. Four more were ordered from Coimbatore but arrived dead. The leaf infusion is prescribed in India in cerebral ailments, nephritis and cachexia. Infested fruits should be burned or otherwise destroyed. 0000433254 00000 n Australian workers report prolonged life and reduced rotting in storage after a hot water dip, but better results were achieved by dipping in an aqueous benomyl suspension at 122º F (50º C). A standard dessert throughout Latin America and the Spanish-speaking islands of the West Indies is stewed guava shells (cascos de guayaba), that is, guava halves with the central seed pulp removed, strained and added to the shells while cooking to enrich the sirup. 0000487931 00000 n Lower ratings were given four others of this group: 'Apple' (too musky and seedy); 'Allahabad Safeda' (too bumpy of surface); 'Burma' (too seedy) and 'Hong Kong White' (too seedy). There has always been a steady market for guava products in Florida and the demand has increased in recent years with the influx of Caribbean and Latin American people. 'Hart', fairly large, with pale-yellow flesh, and 8% sugar content. In India, air-layering and inarching have been practiced for many years. They were all vegetatively propagated and tested as to performance. Others appeared at Punta Gorda and Opalocka. 'No. Guavas kept at room temperature in India are normally overripe and mealy by the 6th day, but if wrapped in pliofilm will keep in good condition for 9 days. Apparently it did not arrive in Hawaii until the early 1800's. He is said to have some very superior selections in his grove. trailer <<62B4F9C76EA34698BB9F96CE0F77DF4E>]/Prev 1196917/XRefStm 1794>> startxref 0 %%EOF 375 0 obj <>stream An average winter crop in northern India is about 450 fruits per tree. 0000422379 00000 n Dieback and Anthracnose (fruit rot) Stem canker and dry fruit rot. It is good fuelwood. 0000470459 00000 n In India, flavor and quality of guavas has been somewhat improved by spraying the foliage with an aqueous solution of potassium sulfate weekly for 7 weeks after fruit set. Since 1975, Brazil has been exporting large quantities of guava paste, concentrated guava pulp, and guava shells not only to the United States but to Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Japan. In Trinidad, softwood, treated cuttings have been rooted in 18 days in coconut fiber dust or sand in shaded bins sprayed 2 or 3 times daily to keep humidity above 90%. The fruits tend to be malformed and the trees are scant bearers. Anthracnose stalk rot Colletotrichum graminicola. 'Patillo' (a seedling selection at DeLand propagated by a root sucker and from that by air-layer and planted at Homestead)–of very mild odor, medium size, ovate to obovate, with pink flesh, moderate number of small seeds; subacid, agreeable flavor; good for general cooking. 'Stone'–small, ovoid, with deep-pink flesh; attractive and of agreeable flavor for eating fresh. In Egypt, a cultivar named 'Bassateen El Sabahia' has long been the standard commercial guava. Outstanding quality for canning. 326 0 obj <> endobj xref 326 50 0000000016 00000 n 0000005440 00000 n How to Identify Anthracnose. For pink sherbet, French researchers recommend 2 parts of the cultivar 'Acid Speer' and 6 parts 'Stone'. In South Africa, a baby-food manufacturer markets a guava-tapioca product, and a guava extract prepared from small and overripe fruits is used as an ascorbic-acid enrichment for soft drinks and various foods. Very limited evidence exists to support guava's use in treating diarrhea, type 2 diabetes, dysmenorrhea, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension. It bears well over a long season. In The Cultivation of Litchis. Among other Indian cultivars are: 'Banaras', 'Dholka', 'Hasijka', 'Kaffree', and 'Wickramasekara'. Sometimes guavas are canned whole or cut in half without seed removal. For fresh marketing and shipping, the fruits must be clipped when full grown but underripe, and handled with great care. In 1947, Hawaii began sea shipment of frozen guava juice and puree in 5-gallon cans to processors on the mainland of the United States. For white or pale-yellow sherbet, 2 parts 'Supreme' and 4 parts 'Large White'. Diplodia natalensis may similarly affect 40% of the crop on some trees in South India. In early 1952, Dr. J.J. Ochse imported into Florida air-layers of a seedless guava from Java. Vascular wilt results from the bacterial invasion of the plant’s vascular system. Soil-inhabiting white grubs require plowing-in of an approved and effective pesticide during field preparation in Puerto Rico. The infection was reported 15 -30 %.

'Red Hybrid'–medium, sub-ovoid, red-fleshed; medium quality. cause stem-end rot in fruits damaged during harvesting. Guava (Psidium guajava L.), one of the most widely grown plants in the tropics, is very susceptible to disease which can decrease its marketability. A false spider mite, Brevipalpus phoenicis, causes surface russeting beginning when the fruits are half-grown. In West Bengal it reduces the yield in affected orchard by 80% . 'Ruby', with pungent odor, medium to large size; ovate; with thick, red flesh, sweet flavor, relatively few seeds.
