Abstract

As a horticultural crop with high economic and cultural values, the productivity of chili (Capsicum annum L.) fluctuates from time to time. This is influenced by changes in weather and climate which lead to the low resistance of chili plants to pests and diseases. Climate change can affect the existence of pests and diseases in plants and even reduce yields between 10-28% on a global scale. Bacteria, in association with plants, can be both pathogenic and non-pathogenic. While pests tend to have a negative relationship with plants because they can cause damage to plants. Banyumas Regency (Central Java) is one of the districts that contribute to the supply of chili which is important to increase production. This study aims to distinguish pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacteria, which are carried by insects in chili planting fields in 3 (three) endemic locations for pest attacks, namely Sumbang, Sokaraja, and Karanglewas Districts. The research was conducted from March to November 2021. As many as 83.33% of the total grown isolates did not show hypersensitive reactions while the others showed positive results. However, further research needs to be carried out for further research (characterization, identification, and other potential of the isolated insect-borne bacteria).

Abstract

The invasion of the ladybug (Vatiga illudens) has started a new chapter in Indonesia, with the first report of this pest in East Java Province in 2021. As a pest that attacks cassava plants, this pest is a threat to cassava plantations, one of which is in Banyumas District, Central Java Province. It is necessary to identify potential natural enemies that can become biological agents that suppress pest populations in the field and insects associated with cassava cultivations to control the pest and anticipate losses due to decreased production of cassava plants in the Banyumas District. This study aimed to explore and describe the natural enemies of ladybug pests and insects associated with cassava cultivations in the Banyumas District. The research was conducted in September 2022-January 2023 in seven cassava cultivation locations in Banyumas District. Samples of pests and or natural enemies were collected using a purposive random sampling method. The results showed a community of potential natural enemies of V. illudens and insects associated with cassava cultivations from the Orders Hemiptera, Diptera, Orthoptera, Coleoptera, and Araneae. The Results showed that 15 species act as potential natural enemies, eight species as pests, and two species as none of them (neutral).
