Abstract

The use of fungicides plays an important role in controlling plant diseases caused by Fusarium. However, the development of environment friendly fungicides is considered more effective, which used the plant secondary metabolites. This study aims to find the latest alternative fungicides using Psidium Cattleianum Afzel plant extract, ex Sabine from the collection of the "Eka Karya" LIPI-Bali Botanical Garden, which can inhibit the growth of F. solani and to find the minimum dose of the plant extract in inhibiting growth of F. solani. The method used was early screening of plant and fungi, medium preparation for fusarium and minimum dose analyze. This study found that based on 19 plants tested, Psidium cattleianum proved effective in inhibiting the F. solani.  Further testing of psidium plants was carried out by looking at the minimum dose of inhibition against fusarium. The inhibition zone contained in the 1% treatment was greater than the concentrations of 0.75%, 0.50% and 0.25%. The research was continued at a concentration reduction of 0.20-0.005% with the results showing that a concentration of 0.20% to a concentration of 0.05% resulted in a moderate inhibition zone of 8 mm to 9.2 mm. Therefore, it can be concluded that the concentration of 1% is the concentration with the minimum dose of Psidium cattleianum in inhibiting the growth of the fungus Fusarium solani.

Abstract

Catfish have become an important contributor to fish production in Indonesia. Catfish consumption in Indonesia always increases every year. To meet the demand for catfish consumption, it was carried out with an intensive aquaculture system. However, the high cost of feed has been identified as a significant constraint in catfish farming. Efforts to increase catfish growth are needed to reduce feed costs, one of the efforts is by probiotic supplementation through the feed. This study was carried out to determine the best dose of probiotic rabal dried addition to increasing catfish growth. The experiment used four treatments and three replications. Probiotic rabal dried doses: 0% of feed (A)/feed (control), 5% of feed (B), 10% of feed (C), and (D) 15% of were used as treatment. The feed was given ad-satiation with a frequency of feeding three times a day. Observations were made for 45 days. The results indicated that the B treatment of 5% of feed gave the best absolute weight growth and feed conversion ratio. While catfish fish survival rate was not significantly different on all treatments.
