Abstract

The extensification of paddy fields is the government's program for food security and nutrition, but it influences the destruction of acid-sulfate soils. This study aimed to assess the improvement result of acid-sulfate soil character applied biochar from local materials with the various doses and to determine the production of IR-Zinc after the treatments, as recommendations for farmers cultivation of IR-Zinc on acid-sulfate soil. The research was conducted in Karang Indah Village, Barito Kuala District, South Kalimantan, from November 2021 to July 2022. The design used was a randomized, complete experiment with two factors: the raw material and the application dose. Research objects consisted of bulk density, porosity, pyrite (FeS2), soil organic-C, number of productive tillers, and weight of dry-milled grain for each treatment. A test using Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at 5% was used to determine the source and dose of biochar that affected significant object changes. The results showed an interaction between raw material and dose levels of biochar. Rice husk biochar increased the yield of IR-Zinc with an application dose of 1.8 kg and improved the characteristics of acid-sulfate soil. Rice husk biochar can provide nutrients due to soil physico-chemical improvements in reducing bulk density and acidity.

Abstract

Soil acidity is one of the main factors limiting the growth and sustainable production of oil palm in Indonesia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of various exogenous compounds on improving fruit growth and oil yield of palm oil grown on Ultisol. The experiment employed three treatments which were arranged in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. The treatments were: 1-MCP (0, 100, 200, and 300 ppm), CaCl2 (0 and 50 ppm) and NAA (0 and 200 ppm). Application of Ca2+, NAA and 1-MCP either single or in combination improved fruit growth and oil yield by increasing almost all variables, except the number of bunches, bunch weight and fruit set. The 100 ppm 1-MCP + 50 ppm Ca2+ + 200 ppm NAA treatments showed the highest oil-to-dry mesocarp content. To get the highest oil to bunch (OB), the combination of 100 ppm 1-MCP + 200 ppm NAA; 50 ppm Ca2+ + 200 ppm NAA, and a single treatment of 50 ppm Ca2+ were very promising to be utilized.

Abstract

The Dieng Plateau is an area used to cultivate Mountain Papaya (Vasconcellea pubescens A.DC.) as a food commodity in Indonesia. Research on diversity and relationships is vital as a first step in Mountain Papaya conservation in the Dieng Plateau. The study aims to determine the genetic diversity and relationship between Mountain Papaya accessions using Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) rDNA sequences. Fourteen accessions of Mountain Papaya with different sex distributions and altitudes are amplified using ITS1 and ITS4 primers. The genetic diversity is analyzed using the DnaSP 5.10.1 program. The Maximum Likelihood (ML) approach in MEGA 11 is utilized for assessing phylogenetic tree data based on ITS-rDNA regional sequences. With high haplotype diversity (Hd) values of 1.000 ± 0.027 and high nucleotide diversity (π) values of 0.09674 ± 0.00978, Mountain Papaya exhibits a high level of genetic diversity. Three main clades were identified in the phylogram tree based on the 14 ITS-rDNA sequences of Mountain Papaya. The results of this diversity data can support breeding programs intended to boost Mountain Papaya variety production.

Abstract

Aphid-borne viral infection is a major limiting factor for groundnut production in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. The study aimed to elucidate the effectiveness of integrated management packages (IMP) in controlling aphid-borne viruses infecting groundnut in the field. Field trials were conducted in a plot without (M0) and with plastic mulch and maize as a plant barrier (M1), while two different groundnut varieties, Bougainvillea leaf extract, and insecticides were incorporated as the subplot treatments. The treatments in M1 plot significantly reduced the aphid population (17.4–79.9%) and AUDPC incidence (51.7–87.3%), and severity (61.0–92.9%), respectively. The treatments increased dry pod production by 11.9–63.3% depending on subplot treatment compared to treatments in the M0 plot (p>0.05). Bean common mosaic virus strain PSt and Cowpea Polerovirus 2 were positively detected in groundnuts as well as in aphids using RT-PCR. Further, nine weed species in the vicinity of the field trial were found to be positively infected with BCMV-PSt, indicating their crucial role as reservoir hosts. Interestingly, the effectiveness of Bougainvillea leaf extract treatment in the M1 plot was comparable to that of the insecticide treatment, indicating that this IMP is a more cost-effective, eco-friendly groundnut virus control than the currently used method.

Abstract

There are numerous kinds of chilies, and many have a specialty and specific growing location, such as the katokkon chili, which is specific to Toraja Highland, South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. This small bell-chili pepper-shaped chili has a distinctive capsicum aroma and a short burning sensation of hot chili's strong spicy taste. This research aims to study the relationship of the genetic kinship of katokkon chili from Toraja and its surrounding regency (Enrekang and Mamasa regencies) using ISSR molecular markers, which are expected to be used as basic information in genetic resource management. Inter Simple Sequences Repeat (ISSR) markers are used for the molecular analysis of 26 katokkon accessions. The result shows that katokkon chili analyzed have a relatively high heterozygosity value of 0.488. The average heterozygosity value is 0.5. Hence, the genetic diversity in these districts is comparatively high. The katokkon chili accession is grouped into three main clusters, each comprising various samples. Only clusters II and III have a close relationship. Information on the genetic diversity based on ISSR can be used as a molecular marker to support further research on the breeding and development of katokkon chili plants and their accession.

Abstract

Recent studies have tended to reduce the added quantities of mineral fertilizers by using strategies of combination both organic and chemical. Thus, the effect of a combination of organic and chemical fertilizer was studied from March until August 2023 to investigate the growth, yield and mineral content of mustard as affected by onion biowaste and NPK fertilizer. This experiment was carried out with 5 different treatments and 4 replications, utilizing the Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD). The treatments consisted of a control with 100% NPK fertilizer (T0), 100% peel onion fertilizer (T1), 50% NPK fertilizer + 50% peel onion (T2), 30% NPK fertilizer + 70% peel onion (T3), 70% NPK fertilizer + 30% peel onion fertilizer (T4). The parameters evaluated in this experiment included plant height, number of leaves, plant fresh weight, and NPK content in the leafy parts. The results showed that there were significantly higher in all studied parameter when using combination of 50% NPK fertilizer + 50% peel onion (T2) compared to the other combinations. Hence, it can be concluded that the combination of NPK fertilizer and peel onion fertilizer is a promising approach to reduce chemical fertilizer application and increase the quality of crops.

Abstract

Two different melon cultivars, Canary and Vietnamese non-sweet melons, are used to compare the fruit's sweetness levels. The results indicate that the Canary melon is much sweeter than the non-sweet melon. The transcript levels of the sugar metabolism genes, including Cucumis melo ACID INVERTASE 2 (CmAIN2) and SUCROSE SYNTHASE 1 (CmSUS1), are examined in two fruit tissues. PCR using cDNA and the electrophoresis assays indicate that the CmAIN2 and CmSUS1 primer sets are specific, and only one band of PCR product is obtained from all tested samples. The quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) assay is applied to compare the transcript levels of the CmAIN2 and CmSUS1 genes in fruit tissues of the Canary and the Vietnamese non-sweet melons. Consistent with the sweetness levels, the CmAIN2 and CmSUS1 transcript levels are higher in the Canary melon than those in the non-sweet melon. These results imply that the local sugar metabolism in the fruits may also play an essential role in determining fruit sweetness. In addition, practically, the transcript levels of the CmAIN2 and CmSUS1 genes can be accessed and used to predict the sweetness of melon fruits early.

Abstract

Br 23 banana mutant line derived from irradiated gamma-ray from pisang ambon cultivar was triploid (AAA) and sterile. Therefore, application of conventional breeding to improve the agronomic characteristics of bananas requires strenuous effort. Morphological and agronomical characterizations of mutant line were observed during the generative stage on the Fusarium hotspot. Sixteen qualitative characters were observed, and each of which related to color was standardized using RHS color chart. Based on these qualitative characteristics, it was confirmed that pisang Ambon belongs to the acuminata group. Several agronomical characteristics of Br 23 banana mutant line, such as the number of hands/bunch, the weight of fruits/hand, and single fruit weight, were observed. The experimental results on banana production showed that the first harvest could reach 26 t/ha. Unlike from the control plant, the Br 23 mutant line showed tolerant characteristics to Fusarium TR4. The evaluation of susceptibility to Fusarium wilt was analyzed using the Vegetative Compatibility Group (VCG) method with isolate no. 01236/16. These susceptible plants were planted nearby the Br 23 banana mutant line. In early 2019, this Br 23 banana mutant line was registered as a new mutant variety under the name of PIRAMA I.
