Abstract

Helminthosporium oryzae is a pathogen responsible for rice damage and losses of up to 45%. A consortium of endophytic bacteria as a biological agent is one of alternative and eco-friendly ways to suppress the development of plant pathogenic fungi. This research aimed to obtain an endophytic bacterial consortium capable of inhibiting the growth of H. oryzae. This research used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) to investigate the efficacy of a consortium of six endophytic bacteria, alongside a control group, with three replications. The treatments included A (control), B (Serratia marcescens ULG1E4; Serratia marcescens JB1E3), C (Bacillus sp. HI; Serratia marcescens JB1E3), D (Bacillus sp. HI; Bacillus sp. SJI; Serratia marcescens JB1E3), E (Serratia marcescens ULG1E4; Serratia marcescens JB1E3; Serratia marcescens JB1E2), F (Bacillus sp. HI; Bacillus sp. SJI), and G (Bacillus sp. SJI; Serratia marcescens ULG1E4). The ability of endophytic bacterial consortia to suppress the growth of H. oryzae was evaluated utilizing dual culture and poisoned media techniques. The parameters observed were the inhibitory capacity of endophytic bacterial consortia, the inhibitory potential of secondary metabolites produced by the endophytic bacterial consortia, as well as the fresh weight and dry weight of the fungus. The results showed that treatment G (Bacillus sp. SJI; Serratia marcescens ULG1E4), B (S. marcescens ULG1E4; Serratia marcescens JB1E3), and E (Serratia marcescens ULG1E4; Serratia marcescens JB1E3; Serratia marcescens JB1E2), had a high ability to suppress the growth of H. oryzae with suspension inhibition 61,28%, 62,93%, 63,55%, and secondary metabolites inhibition rates of 96,93%, 94,21%, 97,60%.

Abstract

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the important food commodities consumed by the Indonesian people. One of the reasons for the decline in rice production is infection by the pathogen Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) which causes bacterial leaf blight (BLB) and it’s seed-borne pathogen. The purpose of the experiment is to to evaluate the effectiveness of seed soaking using Paenibacillus sp. to control BLB in rice plants. Efforts to control BLB and improve rice plant growth were carried out by seed treatment using biocontrol agent has potential as biological control for BLB in rice plants by producing antibiotic. This experiment used a Completely Randomized Design with 4 treatments (control, Paenibacillus sp., Bacillus sp. BTH22, Paenibacillus polymyxa) and 5 replications. Data analysis was performed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) at a 5% significance level using IBM SPSS Statistics version 22 software. If the analysis results showed significant differences between treatments, an Honestly Significant Difference (HSD) test was performed at the 5% level. The research results showed that seed soaking using Paenibacillus sp. was able to reduce the incubation period of HDB disease by up to 11 days, with the lowest disease attack intensity being 10.21%, the highest seed germination rate being 91.25%, and an efficacy level of 53.32%.

Abstract

Chili plants are highly susceptible to infestations by various Plant Pest Organisms (OPT) such as fruit flies, thrips, leaf-eating caterpillars, and fruit borers, as well as diseases like anthracnose, root rot, and leaf spot. To manage these threats, most farmers still rely on synthetic chemical pesticides. Improper pesticide application—particularly in terms of dosage and frequency—can lead to pesticide residues on harvested crops and pose risks to both the environment and human health. This study aims to analyze farmers' behavior in pesticide use and to measure pesticide residue levels in chili samples collected from three major production centers in West Java: Arjasari, Lembang, and Garut. A mixed-method approach combining qualitative interviews and quantitative High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) analysis was used to evaluate six active pesticide ingredients. The results showed that most farmers applied pesticides beyond the recommended dosage and frequency. Residues of chlorothalonil and broflanilide were detected in the samples, with concentrations exceeding the Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs). These findings highlight the urgent need for education and stricter oversight regarding pesticide application practices among farmers.

Abstract

Rice is a major food commodity in Indonesia that is currently experiencing a decline in production due to several factors, one of which is bacterial leaf blight (BLB) caused by the bacterium Xanthomonas sp. The use of chemicals in controlling this disease has many limitations, so alternatives are needed, such as antagonistic microbes. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Bacillus sp. BTH22 and Trichoderma sp. individually and in consortium in suppressing BLB disease in rice plants in vitro and in vivo. The study was conducted at the Plant Health Laboratory of  Universitas Pembangunan Nasional “Veteran” Jawa Timur and Green House of Kebun Bibit Wonorejo from March to June 2025. The methods used included in vitro diffusion well test and in vivo disease intensity observation with a completely randomized design consisting of 5 treatments, namely control and spraying of antagonistic microbes Bacillus sp. BTH22 and Trichoderma sp. alone or in consortium with 4 replicates. Data analysis used analysis of variance (ANOVA) and post-hoc HSD tests at a 5% significance level. The results show that the treatment with the Bacillus sp. BTH22 and Trichoderma sp. consortium was the most effective, with an inhibition zone of 13 mm, which is classified as strong, and the lowest disease intensity of 30.02% at 55 HST with a suppression rate of 69.98%. These results indicate that the consortium of the two antagonistic microorganisms has high potential as an effective and sustainable biological control agent for BLB based on the observed parameters of inhibition zone and disease attack intensity.

Abstract

This study investigated the effects of Streptomyces sp. encapsulated in sodium alginate beads on the growth and health of shallot (Allium cepa L.) plants. Different sodium alginate concentrations (2%, 2.5%, and 3%) and application timings (7 days before transplanting and at transplanting) were tested. The mass and diameter of the beads showed slight decreases over storage time, indicating some shrinkage but maintaining structural integrity to protect the bacteria. Encapsulation efficiency was highest at 3% sodium alginate, which also correlated    with    increased    bead     stability.     Viability     tests     revealed that Streptomyces maintained high colony-forming units (CFU) across the treatments, confirming the protective effect of the encapsulation. Application of beads significantly reduced Fusarium wilt disease intensity and improved bulb weight. Treatments with higher sodium alginate concentrations and earlier application times showed the most pronounced benefits. These findings demonstrate that beads using optimal sodium alginate concentration and timing enhance microbial viability and biological control efficacy, contributing to healthier and more productive shallot cultivation.

Abstract

The intensive use of propineb-based fungicides in agriculture can negatively affect the environment due to toxic and persistent residues in soil. An environmentally friendly approach to reduce these impacts is bioremediation using microorganisms such as Streptomyces sp. This study aimed to examine the tolerance and biodegradation potential of Streptomyces sp. toward 70% propineb fungicide under in vitro conditions. The research was conducted at the Plant Health 1 Laboratory, Universitas Pembangunan Nasional “Veteran” East Java, from June to August 2025. The experiments were carried out in two stages: (1) a tolerance assay on Glucose Nutrient Agar containing propineb at 0; 0,50; 1,00; 1,50; and 2,00 g/L, and (2) a degradation assay using a dual-culture method with Colletotrichum sp. as a bioindicator. Observation variables included Total Plate Count (TPC) of Streptomyces sp., colony diameter of Colletotrichum sp., and the relative inhibition level (THR). Results showed that Streptomyces sp. was able to grow at all fungicide concentrations. The highest population was found in P0 (0 g/L) with 1,42×1013 CFU/mL with growth decreasing as propineb concentration increased, reaching the lowest level of 3,22×10¹⁰ CFU/mL in P4 (2.00 g/L). In the degradation assay, Colletotrichum sp. colony diameter decreased from 3,38 cm in P0 (0 g/L)  to 2,24 cm in P4 (2,00 g/L). Meanwhile, THR values increased consistently with fungicide concentration, rising from 3,17% in P0 (0 g/L)  to 35,48% in P4 (2,00 g/L).

Abstract

Root-knot disease is a major disease that attacks tomato plants. This disease is caused by the Root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne spp.), which can lead to significant losses in tomato crops. Farmers commonly use synthetic nematicides to control these nematodes, but excessive use of chemical agents can have negative effects. Tamarind leaf is a potential alternative that can be used as a botanical nematicide to control the nematodes that cause root-knot disease in tomato plants because it contains various secondary metabolite compounds, such as flavonoids. This research was conducted to determine the effectiveness of various concentrations of tamarind leaf aqueous extract in controlling Meloidogyne spp. nematodes. The experiment was carried out from May to July 2025 in the Plant Nematology Laboratory Division and Greenhouse of the Department of Plant Pests and Diseases, Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Padjadjaran. The experiment used a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with seven treatments and four replications, consisting of a control, tamarind leaf aqueous extract at 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, 10%, and carbofuran at 2g/tanamn. The results showed that the application of Tamarindus indica leaf water extract was effective in suppressing root-knot disease (Meloidogyne spp.) in tomato plants. T. indica leaf water extract at a concentration of 6% can suppress the number of galls on tomato plant roots by up to 64.91% and can suppress the number of second juvenile (J2) Meloidogyne spp. in 100 ml of soil by up to 71.18%.

Abstract

Spodoptera frugiperda J.E. Smith (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), or the fall armyworm (FAW), is an invasive and highly polyphagous pest that threatens various food crops, including rice. This study aimed to assess the effects of several local rice cultivars from West Sumatra on the development and survival of S. frugiperda under laboratory conditions. The experiment was arranged in a completely randomized design with five treatments and ten replications. Four local rice cultivars (Cisokan, Batang Piaman, Kuriak Kusuik, and Bujang Marantau) were tested, with corn used as a reference host. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA). The observed parameters included the duration of each developmental stage, as well as the pre-oviposition, oviposition, and post-oviposition periods, fecundity, egg hatchability, larval survival to the pupal stage, pupal weight, adult emergence, and sex ratio. Host plant species significantly affected all developmental and reproductive parameters of S. frugiperda (p < 0.05). The total developmental duration was shorter on corn (37.20 ± 1.51 days) than on the local rice cultivars, which ranged from 41.54 to 41.90 days. The larval stage lasted longer on rice cultivars (mean 21.40 days) compared with corn (15.86 days). Female longevity and oviposition period were also greater on corn than on rice. Overall survival and the number of females emerging were lower on rice (73.20–78.80 individuals) than on corn (94.20 individuals). These results indicate that S. frugiperda is capable of completing its life cycle on local rice cultivars; however, development is slower, and reproductive potential is reduced compared to corn.

Abstract

Durian peel is one of the agricultural wastes that has the potential to become a valuable product if processed properly. It contains secondary metabolites such as phenols, alkaloids, tannins, and saponins. These compounds can be utilized as active ingredients in the formulation of botanical insecticides. However, there have been no reports on the use of durian rind as a base material for botanical insecticide production, thus necessitating a study to determine the effect of durian rind extract on test insects, particularly the fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda). This study also aims to investigate the effects of various concentrations of durian rind extract on the mortality of S. frugiperda. The research was conducted from September 2023 to December 2024 at the Pesticide Laboratory of Universitas Tanjungpura. The study employed a leaf-dipping method using corn leaves and consisted of a preliminary test, advanced test, and antifeedant assay. The antifeedant test was carried out using both choice and no-choice methods with the following concentrations: 0% (control), 0.1% (LC10), 0.4% (LC25), 1.4% (LC50), and 4.6% (LC75). The observed variables included mortality percentage, sex ratio, average pupal weight, average larval weight, number and viability of eggs, and feeding activity of S. frugiperda. The extract at a concentration of 4.6% had a significant effect on the duration of the imago and pupal stages, total eggs per female, and the male sex ratio of S. frugiperda. Durian rind extract requires high concentrations to affect the growth and development of S. frugiperda, thus it is classified as a botanical insecticide with low toxicity.
