Control of this disease is difficult due to the farmer?s specialization in the crop, pathogen ability to survive in the soil for long periods and physiological specialization of the pathogen in races. Three races of the pathogen have been described in Brazil, 1, 2 and 3, being the 3 of more restricted occurrence. The main strategy to control this disease is the use of resistant cultivars to the races present in the region. Nova Friburgo, RJ, an important tomato producing region during the summer, shows serious problems with plant diseases caused by common soil pathogens and soil management. For this reason, the present work was developed based on the collection of soil and plants samples in 41 farm family units, aiming to study different aspects related to Fusarium wilt in the region. The presentation of the work and the results obtained was divided into four chapters. In Chapter 1, a survey on the occurrence of the disease in the farm unities and identification of the predominant races was presented. In Chapter 2, studies on the incidence and distribution of the disease, as well as, evaluation of the most planted cultivars for resistance to the three races of FOL was presented. In the Chapter 3, we have showed studies on the management practices adopted by the farmers and their relations with soil fertility, plant nutrition and disease severity. Finally, in Chapter 4, 100 tomato accessions were evaluated regarding cultivar resistance to the three races of the pathogen. The accessions were obtained in the germplasm collection of the Department of Crop Science of the UFRRJ. Among the main results, we could identify the generalized occurrence of race 3 of FOL in the region, as well as, that most of the planted cultivars are susceptible to this race. The management practices adopted by the farmers contribute to the dissemination and survival of the pathogen the selection of race 3 due to the use of resistant cultivars to races 1 and 2 only. Finally, from the tomato accessions evaluated, five were resistant to races 1 and 2 of FOL and no resistant access to race 3 was identified / Dentre as principais doen?as do tomateiro est? a murcha-de-fus?rio causada por Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (FOL). O seu controle ? dificultado pelo cultivo sucessivo do tomateiro (Solanum lycopersicum L.) por produtores especializados na cultura, pela capacidade de sobreviv?ncia do pat?geno no solo por longos per?odos e pela presen?a de ra?as do pat?geno. At? ent?o j? foram descritas tr?s ra?as do pat?geno no Brasil (1, 2 e 3) sendo a ra?a 3 de ocorr?ncia mais restrita. A principal estrat?gia para controle da doen?a ? o uso de cultivares resistentes ?(s) ra?a(s) presentes na regi?o. O munic?pio de Nova Friburgo, RJ, importante regi?o produtora de tomate no ver?o, apresenta s?rios problemas com doen?as causadas por pat?genos habitantes do solo, que se intensificam devido a pr?ticas inadequadas de manejo de solo. Diante disto, desenvolveu-se o presente trabalho tendo como base a coleta de amostras de solo e de plantas em 41 unidades familiares visando estudar diferentes aspectos relacionados ? murcha-de-fus?rio na regi?o. A apresenta??o do trabalho e dos resultados obtidos foi dividida em quatro cap?tulos. No Cap?tulo 1, s?o apresentados estudos com o levantamento sobre a ocorr?ncia da doen?a nas propriedades e de identifica??o das ra?as predominantes. No Cap?tulo 2, s?o apresentados estudos sobre a incid?ncia e distribui??o da doen?a e avalia??o das cultivares mais plantadas quanto a resist?ncia ?s tr?s ra?as de FOL. No Cap?tulo 3, s?o apresentados os estudos sobre as pr?ticas de manejo adotadas pelos produtores e as suas rela??es com a fertilidade do solo, nutri??o das plantas e severidade da doen?a. E finalmente, no Cap?tulo 4 ? descrita a avalia??o de cerca de 100 acessos de tomateiro da cole??o de germoplasma do Departamento de Fitotecnia da UFRRJ quanto ? resist?ncia ?s tr?s ra?as do pat?geno. Entre os principais resultados obtidos pode-se destacar a constata??o de ocorr?ncia generalizada da ra?a 3 de FOL na regi?o e a confirma??o de que a maioria das cultivares plantadas s?o suscet?veis a esta ra?a. Constatou-se, ainda, que as pr?ticas de manejo adotadas pelos produtores contribuem para a dissemina??o e sobreviv?ncia do pat?geno e para sele??o da ra?a 3 devido ao uso de cultivares resistentes ?s ra?as 1 e 2. Por fim, na avalia??o dos acessos de tomateiro da UFRRJ, identificaram-se cinco acessos resistentes ?s ra?as 1 e 2 de FOL e nenhum acesso resistente ? ra?a 3.
