Abstract

 This research aims to determine the best pH media for the production of Pseudomonas fluorescens P20 raw secondary metabolites, its effect on controlling damping-off, and on cucumber seedling growth. In vitro test uses completely randomized design with four replicates and seven treatments consisted of pH 5.0; 5.5; 6.0; 6.5; 7.0; 7.5; and 8.0. In planta test uses a randomized block design with three replicates and ten treatments consisting of control, mancozeb 80%, and raw secondary metabolites with pH 7.0 and 7.5, and 4 concentration levels, i.e., 5, 10, 15, and 20%. Variables observe population density, inhibition ability, protease and chitinase qualitatively, germination ability, incubation period, disease incidence, the area under disease progress curve (AUDPC), crop height, number of leaves, root length, and crop fresh weight. The result shows that the best pH for the production of raw secondary metabolites is 7.0, indicated by population density as 5.68 × 1024 cfu/ml, inhibition ability as 50.8%, and the best protease and chitinase qualitatively. Application of the secondary metabolites on pH 7.0 could suppress disease intensity, incubation period, and AUDPC as 66.67, 77%, and 0%-day, respectively, and increase crop height, the number of leaves, root length, and crop fresh weight as 57.65, 37.19, 63, and 74%, respectively.

Abstract

Fusarium oxysporum f.sp capsici, which causes chili-fusarium wilt disease, may be regulated by a secondary metabolite of Trichoderma harzainum. Effervescent tablets are used because liquid formulations have some drawbacks. The purpose of this study is to qualitatively determine T. harzianum’s best crude secondary metabolites, growth and yield, and phenolic compound content in chili crops in foamed tablet formulations against F. oxysporum in vitro. The in vitro study used 6 replicates, a completely randomized design, and 4 treatments consisted of controls and 4, 6, and 8 tablets. Under in vivo conditions, the experiment used a randomized block designs with 4 replicates, eight treatments consisting of controls, fungicides (benomyl), and four, six, or eight tablets per day before or after inoculation. The variables observed were antagonist testing, incubation time, disease intensity, disease incidence, AUDPC, germination rate, plant height, root fresh weight, and qualitative phenolic composition. The results of the study showed that the best dose of T. harzianum’s crude secondary metabolite in vitro was 4 tablets. Medications in in-plant studies delayed the incubation period by 64.11%, suppressed disease outbreaks by 58.34%, reduced disease intensity by 80.45%, increased plant height by 50.4%, and harvested phenols (saponins, tannins, hydroquinone). The content of the compound has been qualitatively increased.
