Abstract

Brown spot disease is the most serious rice disease due to its destructive nature, wide distribution and presence of several physiological races of the organism. In Asia, the disease has been recorded to reduce crop yields vary broadly from 6-90%. The application of endophytic fungi is reported to increase plant resistance from the secondary metabolites produced. The resulting metabolites are synthesized compounds to maintain their existence in interacting with the environment. The aim of this study was to obtain endophytic fungi of rice plants that were able to suppres Helminthosporium sp. pathogens. Isolation of endophytic fungi was carried out from the roots, peniles, leaves and leaf sheath of rice plants. Identification of endophytic fungi was based on their macroscopic, microscopic characters and molecular identification. Endophytic fungi that had the highest inhibition were T. asperellum, F. nirenbergiae, and F. oxysporum as indicated by the in vitro antagonism test. T. asperellum, F. nirenbergiae, and F. oxysporum also produced IAA hormone between 1.8 to 4.365 mg/L.

Abstract

The common control of purple blotch disease of shallot cause by Alternaria porri is using fungicide. Application of mancozeb and benalaxyl was reported effectively suppress the intensity of purple blotch disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effective doses of mancozeb and benalaxyl fungicide against purple blotch disease of shallot in vivo and in vitro. A Randomize Block Design (RBD) with 5 treatments and 5 replicates were used in in vivo experiments and A Randomize Complete Design (RCD) with 6 treatments and 3 replicates were used in in vitro experiments. Disease intensity, fungicide efficacy rate (ER), and production were evaluated in vivo experiment. The growth of A. porri colony, fungicide relative inhibitions rate, compounds fungicide activity character, the biomass of mycelium on potato dextrose agar (PDA) and potato dextrose broth (PDB) were evaluated during in vitro experiment. The result showed that the highest of mixtured fungicide efficacy (90.15%) was found on the highest treatments (2.0 g/l) of fungicides application. It was also found that all fungicides suppressed growth of colony and biomass of A. porri mycelium on PDA+PDB media. The lowest growth of colony, biomass of  A. porri mycelium was found on PDA+PDB media and the highest relative inhibition rate was showed on mixtured of mancozeb+benalaxyl treatment. The fungicide activity character which evaluated from co-toxicity value, indicated that there was a sinergistic between mancozeb and benalaxyl (NK ≥ 1) to inhibit growth of A. porri.

Abstract

Shallot Yellow Stripe Virus (SYSV) is one of the economically important viruses of shallot. The incidence of SYSV infection can reach 66%-100%. The high level of SYSV infection on shallot is also due to the lack of resistance varieties to SYSV. This study aimed to determine the resistance of five varieties of shallot and the effect of SYSV infection on shallot production. The study used a completely randomized experimental design (CRD) using five shallot varieties as the treatment with four replication for each treatment. The shallot varieties were Bauji, Thailand, Bima Brebes, Tuk tuk (V4), Trisula (V5), and control. Each experimental unit consisted of 10 plants. The evaluation results showed that the Tuk-tuk variety was categorized as resistant, the Trisula variety as tolerant, and the Bauji, Thailand, and Bima Brebes varieties were categorized as susceptible. The shallot growth and production indicate that SYSV infection causes interference in the plant development process.

Abstract

Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is a pest that originated in the United States and then migrated to Indonesia. This pest reportedly attacked corn in West Pasaman, West Sumatra Province, in 2019. This study aimed to determine the effect of cultivation practice on fluctuations in natural enemies and S. frugiperda. The research was conducted in Pandan Rejo Village, Pagak, Malang Regency. Data from observations of pest populations' natural enemies were then analyzed using simple quantitative analysis. The population and intensity of Spodoptera frugiperda attacks on IPM practices were always lower than those on conventional practices. During observation, there were 2 species of natural enemies, Braconidae and Scelionidae. The parasitoid population in IPM is always higher than in conventional practice. The lower parasitoid population at conventional practice failed to suppress the S. frugiperda population. Farming business analysis calculated using the R/C ratio showed that IPM practice had a value of 1.03 while conventional was only 0.55. IPM practice is feasible and more ecologically friendly than conventional practice.
