Abstract. Putri ND, Sulistyowati L, Aini LQ, Muhibuddin A, Trianti I. 2022. Screening of endophytic fungi as potential antagonistic agents of Pyricularia oryzae and evaluation of their ability in producing hydrolytic enzymes. Biodiversitas 23: 1048-1057. One of the most important phytopathogenic fungi is Pyricularia oryzae, as it is the causative agent of rice blast diseases, which is the most destructive and detrimental disease in rice. Biological control using endophytic fungi can be an alternative to control blast diseases. Endophytic fungi are fungi that colonize internal plant tissues without apparently damaging the host. The aim of this study was to isolate endophytic fungi that produce hydrolytic enzymes and to investigate their ability to suppress blast disease. In this study, fifty strains of endophytic fungi were successfully obtained from rice leaves. Three fungi with the highest inhibition against P. oryzae were identified as Trichoderma asperellum, Curvularia chiangmaiensis, and Fusarium solani by analyzing fungal ITS sequence. They can produce chitinase ranging from 1.43 to 151 ?g/mL and cellulase ranging from 1.83 to 4.09 ?g/mL, which were hydrolytic enzymes that account for the lysis of phytopathogens. This enzymatic activity can cause damage and degradation of cell walls. SEM results revealed that these endophytic fungi probably excreted wall lytic enzymes or antifungal substances, inflicting wrinkles and disintegrating P. oryzae mycelium.

Abstract. Fernando I, Muhammad FN, Furqoni R, Mario MB, Puspitarini RD, Trianti I, Syib’li MA, Rizali A. 2024. Local and landscape effects on the abundance and diversity of soil arthropods in citrus orchards of Malang and Batu, East Java, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 25: 3920-3927. Soil arthropods are crucial for sustaining the balance and function of agroecosystems. This study aimed to assess the diversity and abundance of detritivorous and predatory soil arthropods across various citrus orchards that differ in agroecosystem management practices and landscape composition. The study was conducted in nine citrus orchards from November 2023 to January 2024, with soil arthropod samples collected using Berlese funnels. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was used to evaluate the effects of management practices (local effects) on soil arthropod diversity and abundance, while Generalized Linear Model (GLM) analysis was employed to assess the effects of landscape composition (landscape effects) on soil arthropod diversity and abundance. Meanwhile, Analysis of Similarity (ANOSIM) based on the Bray-Curtis index was used to evaluate differences in soil arthropod composition. A total of 1,562 individuals were collected, representing 16 families, 11 orders, and 3 classes. Among the predatory groups, the most abundant family was Laelapidae, while Entomobryidae was the most dominant among detritivores. The diversity of both predatory and detritivorous arthropods was not influenced by variations in management practices. However, the abundance and composition of predatory arthropods were influenced by the frequency of organic fertilizer application, while detritivores were affected by weeding treatments. At the landscape scale, predator abundance positively correlated with the number of natural habitat patches and the area of citrus orchards. In contrast, detritivores were not influenced by landscape variables. This study highlights the critical roles of land management practices and landscape composition in shaping the abundance and diversity of soil arthropods.
