Abstract

Solid organic fertilizer is commonly applied for organic vegetable production in a closed agriculture production system as nutrient source. However, its availability is considered slow to sweet corn, and thus it is important to make additional nutrients supply as liquid organic fertilizer (LOF) through leaves. The experiments were conducted to compare effects of LOF application methods and to determine optimum LOF concentrations for sweet corn. Two separated factorial experiments, arranged in randomized complete block design with three replicates, were conducted from February to May and March to June 2015, respectively. The first factor was LOF application methods (soil and foliar) and the second factor was LOF concentration (0, 25, 50, 75, and 100 ppm). The observations focused on average weight of husked ear, length, weight and diameter un-husked ears. The results indicated that the effectiveness of soil application of LOF was 99.625 % as effective as foliar application in influencing sweet corn yields. Concentrations of LOF did not increase all observed variables, but yield attributes were within the range of variety description. It is concluded that in a closed production system, LOF application through soil is as effective as foliar application in affecting sweet corn yields.

Abstract

Molecular marker is robust to precisely monitor the genetic stability of in vitro-banana plants. This study examined the genetic stability of 8 monthold banana plants of Soka variety derived from floral axis organogenesis using newly developed SSR markers. The results showed that the same qualitative and similar quantitative morphological characters of pseudostem, leaf and fruit were identified between mother plants and culture plants from floral axis regeneration. Both plants types were quite similar in number of tillers, brix percentage, fruit peel/mesocarp thickness and fruit length. Eleven out of 211 good quality of SSR loci showing high homology with important genes were selected for suitable PCR primers and produced unambiguous bands.The number of total bands was 323 for total SSR primers, in range of 20-60 per primer for total individual plants. Most culture plants showed identical with their mother plants, with very minor variation as reflected by genetic similarity coefficient range of 0.9-1.0. A high similar pattern on SSR to support morphological characters of mother plants and culture plants indicated a successful micropropagation using floral axis to encounter off-type clones.The floral axis organogenesis in this study is able to provide sufficient genetic materials of Soka for varietal registration and other applications.

Abstract

The sugarcane leaf litter contains organic material and if it is returned to the soil, it will increase the diversity of Collembola. Collembola has an important role as a decomposer of soil organic matter and bioindicator of soil health. This study was conducted to determine the effect of sugarcane leaf litter on the diversity of Collembolan in sugarcane plantation at Kebonagung Sugar Factory, Malang. This study was conducted from March to June 2018. Transect method was used in sampling method. The pitfall traps were used to obtain Collembolan samples on the surface of the ground while the Berlese-Tullgren funnels were used to obtain Collembolan samples inside the soil. A total of 5,535 collembolan were collected. Five species were collected, including Brachystomella sp., Folsomides sp., Mesaphorura sp., Alloscopus sp., and Dicranocentrus sp. Applying sugarcane leaf litter to the soil has a positive effect on Collembolan diversity, as evidenced by the increasing value of diversity index on the soil surface from 0.53 to 1.11 and decreasing the value of dominance index on the soil surface from 0.76 to 0.43.

Abstract

Durian contributes a high economic value in agribusiness of horticultural product. However, recently the attack of scale insect has devastated most of pre-production trees in Indonesia. A research with objective to know the basic information about the correct species, distribution and population abundance was done at Aripan Research Station of Indonesian Tropical Fruits Research Institute from July to August 2018. A proper identification and observation method were used to know the species identity, distribution and abundance of the insect. Biotic and abiotic factors in each clone such as nutrients content, tree morphological characteristic, light intensity, temperature and relative humidity under canopy were analysed. The result showed that Aulacaspis vitis Green was a scale insect identified associating with durian leaves. Clone Bintana and Sikapal were the most and the less preferred with the intensity of damage was 88.60 % and 38.30 %, respectively. Nutrient content especially nitrogen and water as well as canopy morphology were simultaneously the most contributed in the preference of a certain clone. The pest was preferred to clump in the East cardinal direction and no significant difference between upper and lower part of the tree including within and outside of the canopy.

Abstract

Wolbachia that have been found to be maternally inherited in arthropods, including insects behave primarily as a reproductive parasite by inducing feminization and/or death among genetic males; causing cytoplasmic incompatibility, and activating parthenogenesis, in host insects. This research aims to detect the presence of Wolbachia in several parasitic insects and to determine the diversity of Wolbachia at the supergroup level. Insect genetic samples were collected, amplified using wsp (Wolbachia surface protein) gene and with the sequences then analyzed using species homologues drawn from the Genbank database. These activities were dedicated to detect intracellular presence of Wolbachia and assembled the phylogenetic tree of the respected bacteria. Phylogenetic analysis confirmed that Wolbachia existed in the samples belonged to the supergroup A (found in Cherapron sp.) and supergroup B (found in E. japonica). Wolbachia were detected in seven out of nine wasps i.e. Anagyrus lopezi, Ceraphron sp., Microplitis manilae, Brachymeria lasus, Scelionidae sp01, Trichogramma sp, and Exorista japonica. Single infection by Wolbachia supergroup A was detected in A. lopezi, Ceraphron sp., M. manilae, and Scelionidae sp01. Meanwhile single infection by Wolbachia supergroup B was detected only in E. japonica. Double infection by both supergroups occurred in B. lasus and Trichogramma sp. samples.

Abstract

A successful development of low cost floating culture system (FCS) has opened an opportunity for local farmers to cultivate vegetables during prolonged flooding at riparian wetlands. Research was aimed to identify the optimal depth of water-substrate interface (WSI) and optimal rate of NPK fertilizer application (RFA) in cultivating green apple eggplant using the FCS. Depths of WSI were adjusted to 0, 1, 3, and 6 cm and substrate was enriched with 8.4, 12.6, and 16.8 g NPK per pot. The enriched substrates were contained in pots and placed on floating rafts with variable WSI depths. Experiment was arranged in Split Plot Design. WSI was assigned as main plot and RFA was as subplot. The results exhibited that direct contact between water surface and substrate significantly increased water moisture content, enhanced shoot growth, and increased fruit yield, regardless the WSI depths. However, WSI treatments decreased SPAD value and restricted root elongation when WSI depth was more than 3 cm. The RFA treatments up to 16.8 g per pot could enhance shoot and root growth, and increased the fruit yield. This yield increase was associated with the increasing number of fruits, not the fruit size.

Abstract

A hydroponic system was considered to be an appropriate method for root investigations, particularly if the method can be established as a screening technique to classify differences in root traits among sugarcane lines. The aim of the research was to classify root and shoot characters of sugarcane lines grown under hydroponic conditions and to investigate their correlation with the field measurements. Hydroponic and field tests used a randomized complete block design (RCBD). Eight elite sugarcane lines were assigned as treatments. Shoot and root traits were measured at 3 months after transplanting in the hydroponic experiment, and field trial measured root length density (RLD) at 4 months after planting. Root and shoot traits under the hydroponic system showed significant differences among sugarcane lines. KK3 had a high root surface area, root volume, root length and root dry weight and TBy27-1385 demonstrated a high stem height and stem dry mass. Moreover, root dry weight, root volume and root surface area positively correlated with shoot dry mass. Positive correlation was exhibited between root traits such as dry weight of root and root length derived from hydroponic studies and RLD derived from field conditions.

Abstract

The stored rice is often damaged by storage pests. As an important storage pest, Sitophilus oryzae causes significant weight loss on stored rice. The objective of this research was to evaluate the susceptibility of four rice types on Sitophilus oryzae. The research was conducted in Plant Pest Laboratory, Department of Plant Pests and Diseases, Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Brawijaya from May to September 2017. There were four rice types i.e. Brown rice (Diamond variety), Milled rice (Ciherang variety), Black rice (Watudodol variety), and Red rice (BWI-1 variety). Dobie’s Index of Susceptibility was adopted to categorize each rice type. In addition, the Analysis of Variance and Tukey HSD were used to compare the differences between four rice types at α < 0.05. Based on the Susceptibility Index, milled rice was categorized as rice resistant to S. oryzae, while black, brown, and red rice were moderate resistant. The resistance of rice varieties to S. oryzae is influenced by feed quality factors i.e. the adequacy and balance of nutrients, especially ash and fat.

Abstract

Determination of secondary characters during stagnant flooding (SF) is considered important for breeders as the selection criteria in developing SF rice tolerant varieties. Aims of this study were to find agronomical variation and to determine secondary traits that were related to SF tolerance among the rice varieties. Experiment was conducted at Indonesian Center for Rice Research in 2015. Ten rice genotypes were grown in RCBD with three replications under normal and gradual flooding conditions. Agronomic data were gathered and analysed using combined ANOVA, correlation, multiple linear regressions and genetic variability. Results showed that 92.3% variance of stress tolerance index (STI) were presented from a linear model involving weight of 100-grains, panicle length, stem diameter, intensity of leaf green color and stem length. Stem length, intensity of leaf green color, and panicle length had broad genetic variability and high heritability these characters were important criteria when selecting the traits under flowing stress. Number of productive tillers was correlated with grain yield under SF and highly heritable, thus considered as one of determining characters for stagnant flooding tolerance. Based on STIStd, Ciherang and INPARI 30 showed more adaptive performance, while IR 42 had the least when grown under 50-60 cm stagnant water depth.
