Abstract

During an experiment of cassava cultivars competition carried out in Belém, Pará State, the 17 cultivars resistance to superelongation caused by Sphaceloma manihoticola in natural conditions in infection were studied. Different reaction types were observed and among the cultivars tested Riqueza, Vassourinha Branca, and Lagoa were the more resistant while IPEAN-12, Engana-Ladrão and Miguel were the most susceptible; Amazonas, Cachimbo, Guamanara, Hamburguesa, Iracema, Jurará, Mameluca, Mameluca-Branca, Mico, Pretinha and R-18 cultivars showed intermediate resistant reaction.
