          Abstract

          Rubber tree [Hevea brasiliensis (Willd. ex Adr. de Juss.) Muell-Arg] anthracnose panel canker disease resistance, caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (Penz.) Sacc., and growth and yield characters were assessed at three years old in the nursery, in 18 half-sib progenies. There were highly significant (P < 0.01) genetic differences among progenies for most characters. The genetic component of variance accounted for 3.37, 6.07, 12.74, 12.13, 19.82 and 3.58% of the phenotypic variance for anthracnose-infected area, anthracnose lesion stripe length, yield, girth, virgin bark thickness and total number of latex vessel rings, respectively. Narrow-sense heritability estimates for the above characters were 13.45, 24.30, 50.97, 48.52, 79.30 and 14.30%, respectively. No significant genetic correlations were found among anthracnose panel canker resistance, yield and growth characters. The frequency distribution of anthracnose-infected area and anthracnose lesion stripe length suggests polygenic control. Selecting the best three progenies out of 18 progenies would result in a genetic gain of 12.87 and 24.24% for infected area and lesion stripe length, respectively. The best five selected individuals out of 50 individuals within each progeny would result in a genetic gain of 9.47 and 24.62%, with a total gain of 22.34 and 48.87% for these two characters, respectively.

          Estudos genéticos da relação da resistência da antracnose do painel, caracteres da produção e vigor da seringueira [Hevea brasiliensis (Willd. ex. Adr. de Juss.) Muell-Arg] foram conduzidos em 18 progenies de meios-irmãos na Estação Experimental de Pindorama, Estado de São Paulo. Os resultados obtidos mostraram diferenças genéticas significativas entre progenies para a maioria dos caracteres estudados. Os componentes genéticos da variância contribuíram com 3,37% da variância fenotípica para área infectada, 6,07% para comprimento de estrias, ambos causados pela anthracnose, 12,74% para produção, 12,13% para perímetro do caule, 19,82% para espessura de casca virgem e 3,58% para número total de vasos laticíferos. As herdabilidades no sentido restrito para os caracteres acima foram: 13,45%, 24,30%, 50,97%, 48,52%, 79,30% e 14,30%, respectivamente. Correlações significativas não foram encontradas entre antracnose do painel e caracteres da produção e perímetro do caule. A distribuição de freqüência de antracnose sugere que o caráter é poligênico. A seleção das três melhores progênies resultaria em um ganho genético para antracnose de 12,87% e 24,24% para área infectada e comprimento das estrias, respectivamente. A seleção dos cinco melhores indivíduos dentre os 50 indivíduos de cada progênie, para ambos os caracteres, resultaria em ganho genético de 9,47% e 24,62% com ganho total de 22,34% e 48,87%, respectivamente.
