Abstract

Anthracnose is a disease caused by Colletotrichum sp., which can reduce the quality and yield of red chili by 45-60%. This study aimed to determine the ability of different Beauveria bassiana isolates to control anthracnose in chili. The research employed a Randomized Block Design (RBD) consisting of 6 treatments and 5 replications. The treatments included a control and 5 different B. bassiana isolates (PD114, TD312, WS, BbKo, KT2B21). The observed variables included incubation period, disease incidence and severity, plant height, number of leaves, flowering time, and chili fruit weight. The results showed that the application of different B. bassiana isolates have effectively inhibited the development of Colletotrichum truncatum, which caused anthracnose in chili. B. bassiana has demonstrated the ability to prolong the incubation period of C. truncatum (5.40 days) and reduce the percentage of disease incidence (16%). Furthermore, the application of B. bassiana increased the height of chili plants (40.40 cm) and the number of leaves (32 leaves), accelerated the flowering time (42.80 days), and boosted chili production (178.25 g). The WS and TD312 isolates revealed the most significant results. Although the severity of the disease was not impacted, the 2 isolates provided notable agronomic benefits to the chili plants.

Abstract

The coffee berry borer (CBB), Hypothenemus hampei, is a monophagous insect pest that poses a major threat to coffee production worldwide, causing yield losses of up to 30-50%. India's coffee heartland in the south, responsible for over 90% of the national output, grapples with the threat of CBB infestations. Despite its economic importance and global spread, research on the ecology of CBB in India's traditional coffee-growing regions still needs to be completed. In this study, we investigated the infestation rate of CBB in Coffea arabica and C. canephora plantations at three designated locations at Chikkamagaluru (Karnataka), Thandigudi (Tamil Nadu) and Chundale (Kerala) from south India and samplings was done once a month during three fruiting periods between 2015 and 2018. The three sampled sites showed variable percentages of infestation rates across the sampling period between 4.61±0.73 and 29.60±2.28, with the lowest and highest infestation rates in Thandigudi and Chikkamagaluru, respectively. The increase in CBB infestation towards harvest and variations in pre-brood, brood, and post-brood populations suggest the influence of different stages of fresh coffee berries, favorable agro-climatic conditions, and gaps in management strategies in the three sampled regions.

Abstract

Spodoptera exigua is the primary pest attacking shallot plants from the vegetative to the generative phase. Yield loss caused by S. exigua attack can reach 57%. Rhizobacteria have been known to be used as biocontrol agents for controlling insect pests. The research objectives were to determine and compare the effectiveness of Yuyaos and BPTPH rhizobacteria formula (Bacillus sp.) in suppressing the attack of S. exigua on shallot-growing areas. The study used a completely randomized design (CRD) of 3 treatments and five replications. The treatment consisted of shallot seedlings treated with two types of rhizobacteria (Yuyaos and BPTPH) and water (without rhizobacteria) as control before planting. Beneficial effects of the rhizobacteria on shallot plants were observed in the following variables, including the development of the S. exigua population, damage level of S. exigua, and shallot growth. The results showed that introducing Yuyaos rhizobacteria (RZ2.1AG1, Bacillus thuringiensis), which originated from the rhizosphere of the chili plant, was the best way to protect shallot plants from S.exigua. Effectively reduced the population of S.exigua (78.90%), leaf damage (62.12%), and damage intensity (38.88%). On the other hand, Yuyaos was also influential in increasing tuber growth (11.11%), plant height (43.29%), number of leaves (58.33%), and number of tillers (22.22%).

Abstract

Fire caterpillars (Sethotosea asigna, Lepidoptera: Limacodidae) are a major pest of oil palms and cause harvesting losses. Natural enemies such as Sycanus sp. are reported to control fire caterpillars. The biological of Sycanus sp. were observed in the laboratory when fed using the alternative feed, maggot Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens L.). Variables observed were egg, nymph, imago stadia, and the life cycle of Sycanus sp. The data were calculated, displayed as figures and tables, and given descriptive analysis. The results showed that predatory insects, Sycanus sp., can thrive well by providing alternative feed, such as Black Soldier Fly (BSF) (Hermetia illucens) maggots. Based on the results, it was known that one female Sycanussp. Could produce 101 eggs after being fed BSF maggots, with an incubation period of 17 days. The duration of the nymph stage was around 64.16 days, with a relatively low mortality rate (2-12%). Morphologically, Sycanus sp. grew and developed well. The body length was about twice the width of the body. The age of the male was shorter than that of the female, as was the body size. The sex ratio also showed fewer males than females (2:3).

Abstract

Insect pests can damage plants and act as vectors of diseases such as brown planthoppers which can transmit dwarf virus disease. The presence of insect pests is influenced by the type of variety, planting patterns, and excessive use of chemical pesticides so that insect pests increase and are difficult to control. This research wanted to provide insights into the effectiveness of combining insectary plants and biopesticides as ecological strategies to manage paddy (Oryza sativa Linnaeus) insect pests. The study was conducted in February-April 2024 in Sukodadi Village, Sukodadi District, Lamongan Regency. Method of study was conducted using a combination of direct observation, insect traps, and quantitative analysis to evaluate the impact of refugia plants and biopesticides on insect pest populations in paddy fields. The analysis includes the species diversity index (Shannon-Winner), species evenness index, species richness index (Margalef), dominance index (Simpson) and similarity index (Bray-Curtis). The study obtained 2,687 individual insect pests in paddy fields with refugia and fobio and 1,761 individuals in paddy fields without refugia and fobio. Insect pests were more abundant in paddy fields with refugia and fobio compared to fields without refugia and fobio. Refugia provides alternative habitats and additional resources for insect pests, and the use of biopesticides can create temporary ecosystem imbalances, and increase the population of insect pest.

Abstract

Coccinellidae is a high-interest family that has performed well and is widely distributed. It is valuable in economic service because it acts as an agricultural biological control agent. The Micraspis discolor (Syn=Verania) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) is a successful omnivorous predator in rice ecosystem and functions well as a general biological control for maintaining the population of brown planthopper (BPH) (Nilaparvata lugens), the major rice pest worldwide. Studies of natural enemies’ abundance are necessary to increase the practical use of biological control in agriculture. This study investigated the abundance correlation of M. discolor (prey) and rice pest N. lugens (prey) from two different geographical areas of rice fields in west and south Peninsular Malaysia. The cyclone lightrap and sweep net method succeeded in collecting 185 individuals of M. discolor and N. lugens. The study indicated that M. discolor, and the N. lugens collected from Selangor were more numerous than Johor in the ripening phase than in the reproductive and vegetative phases. M. discolor can be found in all stages of rice growth. There are positive correlations between M. discolor and N. lugens in both localities throughout the rice growing season. The positive correlation highlighted that the number of pests has increased parallel to the number of predators and vice versa. The use of M. discolor as a predator is essential in agriculture, along with the treatment of a healthy ecosystem landscape of diverse vegetation combinations, which helps to reduce the use of pesticides.
