2 p. / Alfalfa varieties differ in fall dormancy, defined as growth during the fall. Nondormant alfalfa varieties are usually planted in mild winter areas for their ability to grow in the fall. However, fall growth of nondormant alfalfa may be undesirable in areas subject to repeated frosts or freezes. Nondormant, very nondormant, and extremely nondormant alfalfa varieties (fall dormancy class 8, 9, and 10) are adapted to elevations below 4000 feet in Arizona. Other dormancy classes not included in this publication are moderately nondormant varieties (fall dormancy class 7) which may be grown from 3000 to 5000 feet, and semi-dormant and dormant varieties (fall dormancy 6 and below) which are adapted to colder winter areas above 4000 feet.

Phytophthora rot has been occurring frequently in soybean crops in southern Brazil, even with the use of resistant cultivars. In the 2015/16 harvest, soybean crops in southern Brazil were surveyed to detect plants with Phytophthora rot. Thirty-two samples were analyzed, and the diagnosis and the attempt of isolation in specific culture medium were performed. The disease was detected in 62.5 % of them, and seven pathogen isolates were obtained. The disease was predominant in crops under monoculture, with aggravation in livestock-crop integration system areas. In a second experiment the soybean cultivars BMX ELITE IPRO, BMX APOLO RR, BMX ALVO RR, NA 5909 IPRO and NS 6909 IPRO were tested using a P. sojae isolate with virulence formula Rps1d, 2,3b, 3c, 4, 5,6,7, to verify the reaction of these cultivars to this isolate. All cultivars tested were resistant to the isolates. In a third experiment, soybean seeds of cultivar CD 202 IPRO, susceptible to P. sojae were treated with mixtures of chemical and microbiological fungicides. Plants from these treatments were inoculated with P. sojae mycelium in the hypocotyl, through two inoculation methods, at 6 (syringe method) and at 12 days (stick method). The seeds were also sown on a substrate containing P. sojae inoculum, like a third method of inoculation. Each experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design with four replicates of 12 plants per treatment. The experiments were replicated. The active ingredient (ia) mefenoxam at a dose of 7.5 g (100 kg of seeds) guaranteed the emergence of soybean seedlings in P. sojae infested soil superior to the other fungicides used, reduced the severity of the disease and provided greater root dry mass. No fungicide was effective when inoculation was performed on the hypocotyl of the seedling / A podridão de fitóftora, causada por Phytophthora sojae causa apodrecimento de sementes, tombamento de plântulas, necrose das raízes e da haste da soja. A podridão de fitóftora vem ocorrendo com frequência em lavouras de soja no sul do Brasil, mesmo com a utilização de cultivares indicadas como resistentes. Na safra 2015/16 foi realizado um levantamento em lavouras de soja do sul do Brasil com o objetivo de detectar plantas com podridão de fitóftora. Ao total 32 amostras foram analisadas e de onde se realizou a diagnose e a tentativa de isolamento em meio de cultura específico. A doença foi detectada em 62,5 % delas, de onde foram obtidos sete isolados do patógeno. Houve predominância da doença em lavouras conduzidas sob monocultura, com agravo em áreas com sistema de integração lavoura-pecuária. Num segundo experimento foram testadas as cultivares de soja BMX ELITE IPRO, BMX APOLO RR, BMX ALVO RR, NA 5909 IPRO e NS 6909 IPRO, utilizando um isolado de P. sojae com fórmula de virulência Rps1d,2,3b,3c,4,5,6,7, com o objetivo de verificar a reação dessas cultivares ao isolado. Todas as cultivares testadas se mostraram resistentes ao isolado utilizado. Em um terceiro experimento, sementes de soja da cultivar CD 202 IPRO, suscetível a P. sojae, foram tratadas com misturas de fungicidas químicos e microbiológicos. Plântulas oriundas destes tratamentos foram inoculadas com micélio de P. sojae no hipocótilo, através de dois métodos de inoculação, aos 6 (método da seringa) e aos 12 dias (método do palito). As sementes também foram semeadas em substrato contendo inóculo de P. sojae, sendo considerado um terceiro método de inoculação. Cada experimento foi conduzido sob delineamento inteiramente casualizado com quatro repetições de 12 plântulas por tratamento. Os experimentos foram replicados. O ingrediente ativo (i.a) mefenoxam na dose de 7,5 g de i.a (100 kg de sementes) garantiu a emergência de plântulas de soja em solo infestado com P. sojae superior aos outros fungicidas utilizados. Nenhum fungicida foi eficiente quando a inoculação foi realizada no hipocótilo da plântula
