<![CDATA[Shallot (Allium ascalonicum L.) is a high-value horticultural crop, but its productivity is often hindered by moler disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum. This study aims to examine the effects of a combination of cattle manure, rice husk charcoal, and natural pesticides derived from nutgrass (Cyperus rotundus) on controlling moler disease and to analyze the genetic diversity of the second generation (M2) Bauji shallot variety induced by Co-60 gamma-ray irradiation. The study employed a completely randomized design (CRD) with five treatments, including control (P1), a combination of cattle manure and rice husk charcoal (P2), cattle manure and nutgrass pesticide (P3), all three combined (P4), and the M2 Bauji variety (P5). The results showed that the combination of cattle manure, rice husk charcoal, and nutgrass pesticide (P4) effectively reduced moler disease incidence by up to 65% compared to the control. This treatment also resulted in the highest plant growth and productivity, with an average plant height of 35.2 cm, 15 leaves, and a bulb weight of 120 g per plant. Additionally, the genetic diversity analysis of the M2 Bauji variety revealed genotypes with higher resistance to moler disease and superior productivity, making them potential candidates for new variety development. This study concludes that the combination of cattle manure, rice husk charcoal, and nutgrass pesticide can enhance shallot productivity and resistance to moler disease, while Co-60 gamma-ray irradiation effectively generates genetic diversity for developing superior varieties.]]>
