Abstract
The objective of this work was to identify homozygous F2:3 tomato families resistant to Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum and Ralstonia solanacearum. Two experiments were carried out under greenhouse conditions at the Federal Rural University of Pernambuco, one for each pathogen. We evaluated 45 treatments composed of Yoshimatsu (resistant) and IPA-7 (susceptible) and 43 families F2:3 obtained from generation F2. Each treatment consisted of 16 plants. The incidence of bacterial wilt was evaluated by means of a descriptive scale of notes at 20 days after inoculation. The families were compared with the parents according to the frequency of plants obtained for each note. The chi-square test ( ) was obtained, obtaining the significance of each of the parents. For the species R. pseudosolanacearum three homozygous resistant families were identified: Family F2:3 # 04, Family F2:3 # 29 and Family F2:3 # 31. Regarding R. solanacearum species, two homozygous resistant families were identified: Family F2:3 # 41 and Family F2:3 # 42. These families indicate the possibility of new resistant strains that can be used in breeding programs.

Index of soil quality in agroecological and conventional farming in potiguar semiarid, Brazil
The inadequate use and management in cropping systems in the semiarid region may decline the soil's ability to sustain the production. The objective of this work was to determine the soil quality index (SQI) in agroecolo...
Physiological performance and growth of cowpea under weed management
The interference of weeds affects the physiological parameters of cowpea culture, with direct reflection on growth and productivity. The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of different weed control m...
Phytosociology of spontaneous plants under agroecological cultivation in the banana tree in backlands of Paraiba
Plants are sessile organisms and therefore reflect local conditions. They generally have higher levels of phenotypic plasticity compared to animals, which means that the effects of various stressors may be more apparent...
Diagnose of soil use and conservation in a land reform area in semiarid region
In semi-arid regions, with emphasis to Brazilian Northeast region, the agriculture practiced in rural settlements is based in smallholdings. It is assumed that adoption of conventional land use practices favors soil degr...
