Abstract

Damping off disease in soybean plants is caused by the fungal Rhizoctonia solani. The damping off disease causes a yield loss of up to 85-100%. The purpose of this study was determining the ability chitinolytic bacteria consortium of UB Forest's in suppressing damping off disease in vitro and in vivo as well as its potential to stimulate the growth of soybean plants. The research stages included isolation of the pathogenic fungus R. solani and the pathogenicity test. Rejuvenation chitinolytic bacterial isolates of UB Forest, test chitinolytic bacteria antagonist of UB Forest against R. solani fungus, test of Plant Growth Promoting (PGP) activities, synergy test of selected chitinolytic bacterial isolates, in vitro test for the inhibition of chitinase crude extract against R. solani, and inhibition test of chitinolytic bacteria consortium against damping off disease. The selected chitinolytic bacteria were code bacteria UB12, UB19, and UB52 with plant growth promoting activities with inhibition percentage of the pathogen R. solani of 73.9%, 67.4%, and 71.7%. The best chitinolytic bacterial isolates were the genus Bacillus sp. and Pseudomonas sp. The inhibition test of chitinase crude extract showed an inhibition percentage of 25-55%.

Abstract

Fusarium wilt disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp cepae is a widespread and dangerous diseases in garlic commodities. The combination of AMF and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens can be an effective solution to reduce losses due to attacks by these pathogens. The PCR technique is initial method that has proven to be significant in detecting fungal target DNA so that the effectiveness of biological agents can be determined. The aim of this study is to compare the types of primers that are effective for use in detecting fungal groups in PCR. This research was conducted in October 2023 - November 2024. The types of primers compared were ITS1-F/ITS4-R and LSU200A-F/LSU476-R with spectophotometry and fluometry quantification. The results show that ITS1-F/ITS4-R forms DNA band with a size of 700 bp, while LSU200A-F/LSU476-R had a size of 290-300 bp. The electropherogram also showed differences in DNA distribution which confirmed the results on agarose more specifically in the range 19-12,999 bp. In general, these results prove that the two types of primers have different abilities in fragmenting target DNA. This knowledge can help in detecting DNA at an early stage which can be used in various analyzes that can help in integrated plant disease management.
