Characterization and occurrence of causal agents of powdery mildew in cucurbits in Brazil and reaction of melon germplasm Melon is an economically important crop in Brazil, mainly in the north-east region, where most of the production is exported. Among the limiting factors of the crop is powdery mildew, which can be controled by using resistant varieties. However, to make it possible, it is necessary to know the causal agent in occurrence in the production region and what are the inoculum sources of this disease. The present work had as objectives the survey of the powdery mildew species and races with emphasis in the north-east region; the verification of the strains pathogenicity deriving from others cucurbits in melon; the evaluation of melon germplasm to Podosphaera xanthii race 2 (french) resistance; the proposition of a system of melon cultivars to characterize the P. xanthii races and the optimization of a protocol to P. xanthii DNA extraction. Over all of the 65 strains analysed, it was observed that P. xanthii was the unique specie encountered between the samples. Within that, the races 1 and 2 were prevalents. Also were observed the races 0, 3, 4 and 5 at low frequency. Squash, zucchini, watermelon and cucumber crops showed up like inoculum sources of powdery mildew to melon. Usually, the melon genotypes commercially cultivated in Brazil showed up resistant to P. xanthii race 2 (french). After the observation of races in occurrence and datas from literature, a system of melon cultivars was proposed to differentiate P. xanthii races to be used in surveys of the pathogen. A protocol to extraction P. xanthii DNA also was proposed with the purpose to facility genetics studies about the pathogen basis on molecular markers.
