Abstract

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is a pest control method that combines several control techniques by considering ecological, economic, and sociological consequences. Management efforts with IPM principles can be conducted by cultivating healthy plants and entomopathogen application. This study examined the IPM package's success for controlling fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) in maize field. This research was conducted in a farmer's maize plantation in the West Pasaman District from August to December 2021. The study used a Randomized Block Design (RBD) which consisted of three treatments and five replications. The treatments were different cultivation techniques using IPM, Non-IPM, and control. The variables observed were the population of S. frugiperda (individual/plant), attack rate (%), attack intensity (%), cob weight (g/cob), and farming cost (IDR). The results showed that the IPM and Non-IPM maize cultivation techniques had no different effect on S. frugiperda, especially survival stage, attack rate, intensity, and yield. However, this effect was higher than the control. In addition, the economic benefits of cultivation with IPM were higher than non-IPM. Therefore, this IPM package can be recommended for controlling S. frugiperda because it is also economically profitable and environmentally friendly.

Abstract

Rubber trees are important sources of agricultural income as they are utilized for lumber and latex. Like other crops, they are susceptible to numerous fungal pathogens, especially on their leaves, the most important plant part. Therefore, this study was conducted to identify the fungi associated with leaf spot disease on the leaves of rubber trees. This study aimed to characterize fungi associated with diseased rubber leaves and determine the causative agent of leaf spot disease. A total of 20 fungal isolates were obtained and purified from rubber leaves collected during sampling in rubber plantations in Pahang, Malaysia. All the isolated fungi were identified as Colletotrichum siamense (2 isolates), Diaporthe sp. (5 isolates), Lasiodiplodia pseudotheobromae (1 isolate), L. theobromae (7 isolates) and Neoscytalidium sp. (5 isolates). Based on a pathogenicity test, it was found that nine isolates were pathogenic towards the leaves of rubber, which were L. theobromae, L. pseudotheobromae, and C. siamense. The lesions on the leaves displayed chlorosis with varying necrotic lesion sizes after 21 days post-inoculation. The isolates of the species L. theobromae were the most prevalent, indicating it is more widespread in the region than other species. The findings present data on the potential pathogen of rubber plants and are important to understand further the potential risks and effects of the pathogen in rubber plantations

Abstract

Management of PRSV using cross-protection and transgenic plants has been hampered due to varying PRSV gene sequences. Therefore, the characterization of new PRSV isolates could help design the region needed for region-specific management practices. The study aimed to characterize the typical PRSV isolates found in Bogor biologically and molecularly. The study was conducted in 2 stages: host range study of 2 isolates (Sukaraja and Cijeruk) on five species with six plants for replication, and RT-PCR analysis amplified coat protein (CP) region using PRSV326 and PRSV800 primer pair. The results showed that Sukaraja isolate produced systemic symptoms in papaya (Carica papaya L) cv. Merah Delima in the form of leaf lamina becoming pale and wilting, leaf malformation, open veins, and striped patterns on the leaves, while the Cijeruk isolate causes symptoms of leaf blistering, mosaicism, leaf malformation, wilted lamina, and striped patterns on the leaves. These two isolates did not cause symptoms on eggplant (Solanum melongena) and chickpea (Vigna unguiculata) but produced striped leaf patterns and pale lamina symptoms on bitter melon (Momordica charantia) and melon (Cucumis melo) leaves. RT-PCR analysis was able to amplify ±475 bp of DNA. The two DNA isolates had a homology percentage of 97.7% with PRSV isolates from Thailand, ranging between 93.07-99.68% with the Kulon Progo and Nganjuk isolates. Based on phylogenetic analysis, the Cijeruk isolate was in the same branch as the Indonesian isolate, while the Sukaraja isolate was a separate branch and closely related to isolates from Oklahoma and Malaysia.

Abstract

The egg-larval parasitoid on fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) have not reported in the Philippines. This paper summarizes the global biological information on two species of Chelonus and their role in the regulation of FAW. The FAW egg masses and larvae were collected in the corn plantations inside the Lipa Agricultural Research Station, Marawoy, Lipa City, Batangas. The collected egg masses and larvae were reared at the Entomology Laboratory of the Department of Agriculture-Regional Crop Protection Center IVA. The larvae of FAW were observed for the emergence of parasitoids. Two cocoons of the parasitoid from the rearing cages were obtained for species determination. Three adults from the emerged parasitoids, each male and female, were initially preserved and labeled. Color images of habitus and other morphological characters of the parasitoid were taken using a DSLR camera attached to an Olympus SZ61-60 microscope. This research found two species that emerged from FAW: Chelonus formosanus and the new record of C. semihyalinus. We also highlight the need for more research in the Philippines on exploring the diversity of indigenous natural enemies, the development of mass-rearing techniques, and their utilization to manage fall armyworms.

Abstract

Rice field rats is one of the main pests of rice in Indonesia and other Asian countries that can cause a crop failure. The availability food sources might affect the rat foraging in the field. The research aimed to determine the distribution of rat population and their nests in the field with different crop and to examine the level of crop damage caused by rats. The research was conducted from January to April 2023 in Pleret district, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The 1000 m2 TBS (Trap Barrier System) was installed in the middle of the 225 ha observation area to trap rats. Crop damage inside TBS was observed using a diagonal sampling method. Crop damage outside TBS was observed using the line transect method in the 4 cardinal directions with a distance of 250m, 500m, and 750m from TBS. Rat nest’s locations were mapped using GPS. The results showed that the number of rats trapped was low in the early and late stage of rice growth and peaked when the rice aged 12 weeks after planting (WAP). Rice crop damage inside TBS occurred when rice entered 12 WAP. There was no damage on rice crops around the TBS. Rats also attacked corn and sugarcane which caused heavy damage to these crops. There were 157 active holes found in 225ha observation area and they mostly were found in rice field bunds, irrigation embankments, and vacant land. This study implied that understanding the distribution of rat’s population and their nest will support the rat control.

Abstract

The brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens) is one of the main pests of rice plants. This pest attack can cause crop failure or puso. Biological control of this pest can be carried out using the entomopathogenic fungus, Metarhizium anisopliae. The ability of this fungus to control pests is influenced by the source of the isolate. The purpose of this study was to obtain isolates of M. anisopliae, which is virulent to N. lugens. This study used an experimental method with a completely randomized design (CRD) in six treatments and five replications. There were five isolates of M. anisopliae used and one control. M. anisopliae was applied to nymphs and adults of N. lugens with a concentration of 108 conidia/mL. The research revealed that all M. anisopliae isolates tested were virulent against N. lugens nymphs and adults. The most virulent isolate for the two stages of BPH was Met3B, which was collected from the leek rhizosphere. The isolate caused an adult mortality rate of 52%, nymph mortality of 60% in 10 days after application, and adults formed after application was only 37.33%.

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

Bacterial wilt disease caused by Ralstonia solanacearum is a disease in chili pepper plants (Capsicum annuum) that is difficult to control. One technique to prevent bacterial wilt disease is consortium of antagonistic bacteria such as Pseudomonad fluorescent and Bacillus mycoides. This study aimed to determine whether the consortium of Pseudomonad fluorescent pf-142 and Bacillus mycoides can inhibit R. solanacearum better than a single application in-vitro. This study was conducted in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with four treatments (Pseudomonad fluorescent pf-142, B. mycoides, Pseudomonad fluorescent pf-142 + B. mycoides, and control) in six replications, resulting in 24 experimental units. The variables observed were the symptoms of attack and pathogenicity of R. solanacearum, compatibility and inhibitory rate of the consortium of Pseudomonad fluorescens pf-142 and B. mycoides against R. solanacearum. Based on the study, it was known that R. solanacearum caused wilting in chili pepper plants with high virulence. Pseudomonad fluorescent pf-142 and B. mycoides did not produce an inhibition zone, indicating that both were compatible. The consortium of Pseudomonad fluorescent pf-142 and B. mycoides provided the widest inhibition zone, indicating strong antagonistic ability against R. solanacearum.
