Abstract

Nano-chitosan is considered as a prospective replacement for synthetic bactericides. In this study, the antibacterial activity of nano-chitosan and synthetic bactericides was compared in four chili pepper cultivars (Bianca, Lado, Kiyo, and Tanamo) infected by Xanthomonas campestris. To assess the effect of nano-chitosan and synthetic bactericide on the growth of the X. campestris-infected chili pepper plants, some parameters were observed including the plant height, number of leaves and chlorophyll content. It was shown that nano-chitosan was highly effective in controlling the pathogen infection on Bianca, Lado, and Tanamo, but not significant on Kiyo. The application of synthetic bactericide, however, was effective on Bianca and Lado, but not significant on Kiyo and Tanamo. It was also shown that the application of nano-chitosan can improve the growth of the X. campestris-infected chili pepper plants based on the significant difference on the plant height, number of leaves and chlorophyll content of cultivars tested, especially in Kiyo, Lado, and Tanamo. The application of synthetic bactericide, however, did not significantly improve the growth of the X. campestris-infected chili pepper plants. Nano-chitosan was shown to be effective in reducing the infection of X. campestris and potentially be used as an alternative to synthetic bactericide.

Abstract

The research was conducted to study the agronomical characters as the resistance attributes of twenty soybean varieties to Nezara viridula. The results showed that the twenty soybean varieties had a different response to stink bug infestation. Gepak Kuning, Seulawah, and Sinabung were resistant to stink bug, while Argomulyo were highly susceptible, and Grobogan and Malabar were susceptible. Besides resistance to stink bug, Sinabung also had the highest seed yield (2.95 t/ha). The seed yield of Gepak Kuning and Seulawah were not high, i.e. 2.20 and 1.82 t/ha respectively. The three highly susceptible or susceptible varieties also showed the lowest seed yield, i.e. 0.68 t/ha (Argomulyo), 0.42 t/ha (Grobogan) and 0.99 t/ha (Malabar). The negative correlation was shown between resistance to pest with days to maturity, duration of the reproductive phase, the number of unfilled pods, and weight of 100 seeds. Seed yield also had a negative correlation with duration of reproductive phase and weight of 100 seeds. It indicated that varieties with short duration of reproductive phase and small seed size were preferred by Nezara viridula as food sources. Therefore, these two characters can be used to determine the soybean resistance to Nezara viridula.

Abstract

Areal cultivation of sugarcane in Indonesia is expanded to soil with high salt content. There is an urgent need to find an appropriate soil amendment fertilizer to minimize negative effect of saline soil on sugarcane growth. The objective of the research was to determine the effect of vermicompost and nitrogen on N, K and Na uptakes and growth of sugarcane grown in saline soil. The treatments consisted of three rates of vermicompost (equivalent to 0, 10, 20 t/ha) and three rates of nitrogen fertilizer (equivalent to 50, 75 and 100 kg N/ha). Nine combinations of treatments were arranged in randomized block design with four replicates. Sugarcane commercial variety of ‘Bululawang (BL)’ was planted for 4 months in soil with Electrical Conductivity (EC) of 4.12 dS/m. Results showed that interaction between vermicompost and nitrogen fertilizer rate increased N, K uptakes and growth of sugarcane in saline soil. Addition amount of vermicompost and nitrogen reduced soil EC and Na/K ratio uptake of sugarcane. In this study, addition of 20 t vermicompost together with 50 kg N/ha induced sugarcane production with the highest biomass during 4 month planted in saline soil.

Abstract

Kencur (Kaempferia galanga L.) has been recognized as a medicinal plant used by many ethnic groups in Indonesia. Up to present time, information on the diversity of the respected plant is still limited. The aim of this research was to reveal the genetic diversity of K. galanga in Indonesia as a baseline medicinal plant database. Inter-Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) molecular markers were employed to analyze the genetic diversity information of K. galanga from 12 selected locations in Indonesia where ethnic groups used the plant. Dice index similarity was used to calculate a similarity index, and Unweighted Pair Group Method Using Arithmetic Mean (UPGMA) was used to constructing a dendrogram. Ten selected ISSR primers generated 104 amplified DNA fragments, of which 98 fragments (94.2%) were polymorphic. The genetic similarity index among accessions ranged from 49.6–93.3%, indicating a high level of genetic diversity in K. galanga. The ISSR markers were thus able to genetically differentiate K. galanga accessions.

Abstract

The transplanting system is a common method in rice cultivation, whereas the direct seed planting system combined with the application of organic fertilizer is rarely applied. This study aimed to determine the impact both the direct seed planting system and the application of liquid organic fertilizer the growth and production of rice. The research used the factorial randomized block design, direct seed planting system tested by the transplanting system and application of liquid organic fertilizer doses 25, 35, and 45 l/ha. The observed variables were plant height, number of tillers, productive tillers, panicle length, weight of 1000 rice grains, and grain yield of plots. Data were analyzed by analysis of variance with 5% LSD test. The results revealed that direct seed planting system and application of liquid organic fertilizer impact the growth and yield of rice. The application of liquid organic fertilizer a dose of 45 l/ha gave the highest influence among all observed variables. There is a correlation between the treatment of the planting system and the application of liquid organic fertilizer on the growth of the number of tillers and productive tillers. The direct seed planting system increases the yield of rice more than the transplanting system.

Abstract

The tomato farming industry needs to adopt new ideas in applying the technology for its growth monitoring and main. Machine vision and image processing techniques have become useful in the increasing need for quality inspection of fruits, particularly, tomatoes. This paper deals with the design and development of a computer-vision monitoring system to assess the growth of tomato plants in a chamber by detecting the presence of flowers and fruits. The system also provides maturity grading for the tomato fruit. Two pre-trained deep transfer learning models were used in the study for the detection of flowers and fruits, namely, the Regional-based Convolutional Neural Network (R-CNN) and the Single Shot Detector (SDD). Maturity classification of tomato fruits are implemented using the Artificial Neural Network (ANN), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), and the Support Vector Machine (SVM). Evaluation results show that for the detection of flowers and fruits, the over-all accuracy of the R-CNN is 1.67% for flower detection and 19.48% for the fruit detection while SSD registered 100% and 95.99% for flower and fruit detection respectively. In the machine learning for maturity grading, SVM produced the training-testing accuracy rate of 97.78%-99.81%, KNN with 93.78%-99.32%, and ANN with 91.33%-99.32%.

Abstract

Post eruption land reclamation consists of hoeing, mixing volcanic ash with soil, adding external organic and/or in-organic fertilizers and making infiltration-pits (‘rorak’). This study, after the 2014 eruption of Kelud volcano, aimed to evaluate: (a) soil physico-chemical fertility post eruption, (b) impact of organic inputs interacting with ash in infiltration pits on soil C and N underneath (1st experiment), (c) biomass loss (decomposition) of local biomass (Trema orientalis and Parasponia andersonii) in a coffee agroforestry system (2nd experiment). Measurements in the ash-affected (+Ash) Tulungrejo-village (Ngantang-Malang district) were contrasted with an area without recent ash deposits (-Ash) in Krisik (Gandusari-Wlingi district). The 1st experiment (-Ash site) treatments did not lead to statistically significant influences on soil conditions just below the infiltration pits during 12 weeks of monitoring. The 2nd experiment quantified rate of biomass loss from litterbags. In +Ash location, litter half-life time (t50) was 19.5 weeks for coffee or Parasponia as single biomass source to 24 weeks for Coffee+Sengon+Durian. In -Ash location decomposition was slower, with t50 of 24 weeks for Parasponia to 27 weeks for Coffee+Sengon+Durian biomass. Concentrations of soil NH4 and NO3 below the litterbags peaked between 4 to 8 weeks, with nitrification lagging behind on ammonium release.

Abstract

The use of eco-friendly methods in controlling pest and diseases has become an increasing concern in production system in many economically important crops, including ornamentals. The application of plant extract that has an insecticidal effect is considered as one promising alternative in reducing the negative effects of synthetic pesticides. The research was conducted to assess selected plant extracts in several concentrations against leaf miner (Lyriomyza spp.) in chrysanthemum. The experiment was carried out from January to December 2017 under plastic house conditions at the Indonesian Ornamental Crops Research Institute (IOCRI). The extracted organ of insecticidal plants regularly sprayed into chrysanthemum plants and compared with water as the controls. The results showed that the application of insecticidal plants extracts reduced attack intensity and incidence from water treatment (control). Certain treatment combinations, Chinese mahogany leaf extract at the concentration of 0.25%, C. pyrethrum petal 0.15 and 0.30%, and chinaberry leaf at 0.3, 0.35% even had 0.9-3.13% lesser attack incidences than commercial botanical insecticide Neem Plus. The respected treatments also supressed more than 62% leaf miner attacks and induced the increase of marketable flowers.

Abstract

Contribution of biofertilizer in Indonesia as an alternative material for improving soil fertility and crop production is still limited. This may due to several major obstacles on its utilization and effectiveness regarding to it quality in term of its microbial viability of inoculants on formulations. This study aims to determine the effect of liquid biofertilizer formulations made from vermiwash carrier material on indigenous bacterial viability and its testing on germination of green beans ‘Vima-1’. The study included: (1) optimization of pH for the growth of inoculants bacterial consortium in vermiwash formulations with various additives, (2) viability tests and (3) pathogenicity tests of biological fertilizers on green bean sprouts (vegetative phase). The results showed that the best pH for the growth of the consortium of three bacterial isolates was at 5.5. Liquid formulation with a carrier material in the form of vermiwash plus 1% PEG (VP3 treatment) supported the highest viability of the bacterial consortium during 8 weeks incubation. All treatments did not inhibit the growth of green bean sprouts and symptom of pathogenicity was absent in all treated plants. From all treatments, the tallest green bean sprout was detected at VP3 treatment.

Abstract

Salinity as a global challenge is a very complex issue in agricultural food production. In this study, the growth characteristics of chili pepper (Capsicum annuum var. crusader) were evaluated under higher Electrical Conductivity (EC) (5 dS/m) induced by NaCl, KCl, K₂SO₄ or “All Nutrients” of Hoagland nutrient solution. The standard Hoagland solution (with EC 1.8 dS/m) was used as the control. The results showed that EC5 induced by NaCl resulted in the most negative effects on growth, yield and fruit quality parameters. Application of KCl (to induce EC5) also resulted in some reduction in growth parameters. However, application of K₂SO₄ and particularly “All Nutrients” (to induce EC5) resulted in better growth characteristics compared to plants treated with NaCl or KCl salts. There was a significant reduction in growth and fruit quality traits including plant height, leaf SPAD value, fresh and dry weights of shoots and roots, fruit fresh yield, fruit total soluble solids (TSS) and vitamin C content by NaCl and to lesser extent by KCl. However, there was no significant reduction in these traits by “All Nutrients” and for some traits by K₂SO₄ application compared to control plants.
