- Association Coffee leaf rust isolates differed significantly in incidence on coffee plants, largely associated with their site of origin.
- Association Chlorophyll and fluorescence measurements showed a moderate negative correlation with isolate aggressiveness.
- Association Isolate aggressiveness was associated with a reduction of up to 28% in SPAD readings of coffee plants.
- Association Isolate aggressiveness was associated with a reduction of up to 42% in Fv/Fm of coffee plants.
