Abstract

The Ralstonia solanacearum species complex is a highly destructive plant pathogen with a remarkably broad range of hosts, and ongoing discoveries continue to expand its host list. In May 2023, a new type of bacterial wilt affecting ginger (Z. officinale) crops in Semarang Regency, Central Java was reported. Early symptoms included sudden withering of leaves in adult plants followed by complete wilting and darkening of the vasculature, ultimately leading to plant death. This research specifically investigates the spread of Ralstonia solanacearum Species Complex within ginger cultivation in Semarang Regency. Twenty bacterial isolates were collected from soil and diseased Z. officinale plants at twenty different locations. Physiological and biochemical analyses confirmed that the causative agent for Z. officinale bacterial wilt was Ralstonia solanacearum belonging to biovar 3 and 4. The study also revealed that the distribution of this pathogen remains focused in the Banyubiru and Sumowono sub-districts. These findings will enhance our understanding of how Ralstonia solanacearum Species Complex spreads among ginger crops and its impact on them.

Abstract

The Ralstonia solanacearum Species Complex (RSSC) is a significant plant pathogen affecting various agricultural commodities, including ginger. Understanding the distribution and characteristics of RSSC in ginger plants is crucial for effective disease management. This study aims to determine the distribution of RSSC in ginger plants and identify the pathogen through morphological and biochemical characterization. The research was conducted in Banyubiru and Getasan districts, Semarang Regency, Indonesia. The study involved purposive sampling, isolation, and purification of isolates, followed by morphological characterization through observation and biochemical characterization using Gram staining with KOH, oxidase test, arginine activity test, hypersensitivity test, bacterial density calculation, Koch's postulates, and biovar characterization. Three isolates from Banyubiru displayed typical morphological characteristics of RSSC, including round, mucoid colonies with red centers and white edges on TZC medium, and rod-shaped bacterial cells. Biochemical characterization identified these isolates as RSSC strains biovar 3 and 4, capable of causing bacterial wilt in ginger plants. The study confirmed the presence of bacterial wilt in ginger in Banyubiru district. The findings reveal the spread of bacterial wilt caused by RSSC in ginger plants in Banyubiru, Semarang Regency. There is a need for measures to control the potential spread of RSSC in the surrounding host plant areas in Tlumpak Village, Banyubiru district.
