Abstract

Spent mushroom substrates are potential for controlling plant diseases. This study examined the abilities of spent substrates of Shiitake (L. edodes) and Oyster (P. ostreatus) mushrooms to inhibit the growth of R. solani in vitro and control damping-off disease in tomato seedling. The in vitro experiment examined the abilities of water extract of spent mushroom substrate non-sterile and sterile to inhibit the pathogen using poisonous food method. In the nursery experiment, substrates were mixed with the planting medium, 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3 (v/v). The result showed that the water extract of spent substrates of L. edodes and P. ostreatus inhibited the growth of R. solani by 29.1% – 40.6%. Non sterile water extract of spent substrate of P. osteratus showed highest inhibition level (40%). In tomato nursery, mixing  spent substrates of L. edodes or P. ostreatus with planting medium 1:2, and 1:3 (v/v) inhibited damping-off disease in tomato seedling by 57.5% - 100%.  Application of P. ostreatus spent substrate in the planting medium, 1:2 and 1:3 (v/v) resulted in 100% inhibition of the disease.Key words: tomato seedlings, water extract, spent mushroom substrate, in vitro

Abstract

Blast, incited by Pyricularia oryzae Cav. is the most yield-limiting disease of rice.  Use of resistant varieties is the most suggested tactic for controlling this disease. Therefore, resistant varieties are continuosly developed in rice breeding program. One of the challenges in developing resistant varieties to blast is the testing methods which required the availability of optimum condition for infection and development of disease, especially it has to be done against different races of the fungus. In addition, the duration of test is required long period of time. In order to shorten the test, the in-vitro technique has been studied using inoculation to rice leaf cuts incubated in a petridishes amended with several layer of wetted sterilzed tissue.  Tests used four differenet domonant races of the fungus, i.e. 033, 073, 133, and 173, wehereas the rice cultivars used were Kencana Bali (susceptible to all races), Situ Patenggang (resistant and moderately resistant), Arize (moderately resistant to race 073) and PP3, a breeding line. Plants were scored using a pictorial scorring scale of IRRI (1996). The results showed that the in-vitro technique using leaf cuts was able to separate the reaction of the resistant from of the susceptible rice to blast disease. It confirmed the reaction of the result of standard greenhouse test. Cultivar Kencana Bali was consistantly susceptible to ras 173 both in in-vitro, standard greenhouse, and in field. The in-vitro technique was able to speed up the inoculation process, prevent a mix of races and release of races to environment. It also can minimize cost of testing, and speed up the selection process of resistance in plant breeding to develop blast resistant varieties.

Abstract

Leaf blight disease caused by Phytohthora infestans is one of the major diseases on potato plant. To control the disease farmers usually use synthetic fungicides. However, the excessive use of synthetic fungicides may cause negative impacts on the environment. One of the alternative control methods which is more environtmentally friendly is the use of antagonistic microbes. In this experiment, Bacillus subtilis and Lysinibacillus sp. were formulated with carbon fiber as a carrier and enriched with nano silica as a micro nutrient, to find out the ability of the bacteria in suppressing leaf blight disease on potato plant. The experiment was carried out in the experimental field in Lembang, Bandung Barat, Jawa Barat. The experiment was arranged in the randomized block design consisted of nine treatments and four replications. Density of B.subtilis and Lysinibacillus sp. were 1011 cfu/ml. The formulation was applied 3 times, on planting, 2 weeks and 4 weeks after planting. The results showed that the application of B. subtillis and Lysinibacillus sp. were able to suppress leaf blight disease, with the disease inhibition 36,6% and 32,7% respectively. The combination treatment of B. subtilis in silica nano and carbon fiber was able to suppress leaf blight disease on potato plant higher compared to the application of bacteria without nano silica and carbon fiber, with the disease inhibition up to 51,2%.

Abstract

Fusarium oxysporum is a soil-borne fungus that attacks all stages of tomato plant from seedlings to mature plants. The disease occurrence on the tomato nursery can lead economically loss due to its fast and massive damage. Application of effective biological control agents is considered as promising control measure of the disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential competitiveness of biological agents mixture consisting of Streptomyces sp., Gliocladium sp. and T. harzianum against F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici in the rhizosphere of the tomato plant. The experiment was arranged in completely randomized design with five treatment types of agents that a single biological agents Streptomyces sp. (S), a mixture of Streptomyces sp. and Gliocladium sp. (SG), a mixture of Streptomyces sp. and T. harzianum (ST), a mixture of Streptomyces sp., Gliocladium sp., and T. harzianum (SGT) and control without biological agents. Each treatment was replicated four times and consisted of 6 plants for observation purposes destructively. Descriptive analysis conducted on the pattern of colonization of the roots competition showed a growth pattern colonization of biological agents, Streptomyces sp, Gliocladium sp, T. harzianum and F. oxysporum pathogen (SGTF) was the same growth pattern of SGF and STF, where four of the microbes grew on the same side of roots as fungal pathogens, in all parts of the root sprouts. Given biological agent Streptomyces sp, Gliocladium sp., dan Trichoderma harzianum decreased fusarium wilt diseases severity of tomato. Weight root of tomato plants was applied by biological agents was 9.2 g greater than  plant without biological agents, which were 2.5 g. The observation on tomato indicated root colonization occurs, especially on the base of the stem-roots by a mixture of biological agents T. harzianum and Gliocladium sp.

Abstract

An important pest in corn plantation recently reported in Indonesia was Spodoptera frugiperda, a polyphagous pest that have a fast spread rate and caused high damage on young corn. One control that able to use is botanical insecticide. This experiment aims to determine the toxicity of neem, jatropha, clove, and citronella oil (concentrations of 0.1% and 0.05%) against S. frugiferda in corn. Tests carried out using the feeding assay or residue on corn leaves (size 5 x 5 cm). Then, the leaf treatment was given to 10 larvae of S. frugiferda (instars 2) for 48 hours. After that, the feed replaced with untreated feed. The test results showed that concentration neem oil of 0.1% caused the highest mortality of S. frugiferda. Neem oil exposure is also able to inhibit the time of larval development, reduce the percentage of feed consumption, and the weight of pupa the S. frugiferda. Other vegetable oils exposure gave lower mortality in the test insects and some treatments were not significantly different from the controls on the parameters of larval development, pupae weight, and percentage of feed consumption. Neem oils showed strong toxicity against S. frugiperda larvae with  Lethal Concentration 50 (LC50) of 0.079 % (CI (95%) 0.066 – 0.095%) and LC95 of 0.338% (CI (95%) 0.024-0.567%).

Abstract

Endophytic bacteria have been known as producers for bioactive compound in which widely used in the field of crop protection. Several isolates of endophytic bacteria have demonstrated their potential ability as biocontrol agents by inhibiting the development of major rice pathogens. However, their ability to produce bioactive compounds has not been explored. The study reported the ability of the endophytic bacteria isolates in producing antifungal volatile compounds to inhibit the growth of Pyricularia oryzae Cav., the causal agent of rice blast disease. The experiment was conducted by dual culture method using bipartite compartments in which the bacterial isolates and P. oryzae were grown separately and placed by facing to each other. The bacterial isolates were grown on ISP2 agar media, whereas P. oryzae was grown on PDA media. Nine isolates were tested for their ability in producing antifungal volatile compound. The potential of antifungal volatile compound was observed by the P. oryzae growth compared to control. Furthermore, its effect on the P. oryzae mycelia was observed under microscope. The result demonstrated that all of the tested isolates were able to produce volatile compound which were able to inhibit the growth of P. oryzae. In addition, the compounds were also causing mycelial alteration.
