Abstract

This research is conducted to study the induction of polyploidization in Katokkon chili using colchicine to study the effect of chromosome doubling or polyploid on certain superior characters during the seedling phase. Some morphological alterations were determined and proven to persist during the seedling phase. The study was conducted in the laboratory and screen house of the Department of Agronomy, Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Hasanuddin. The polyploidy of the Katokkon chili is induced by soaking the germinated seeds in 0%, 0.05%, 0.1%, and 0.2% colchicine solutions for 6, 12, 24, and 48 hours each. Ploidy levels are analyzed using flow cytometry (Partec®Cy-Flow Space TM). Results show significant differences in colchicine treatment affecting all parameters observed: hypocotyl base of sprouts, plant height, stomata size, and the number of lateral shoots. Flow cytometry analysis histogram confirmed that administration of 0.1% colchicine concentration with 48 hours soaking time and 0.2% colchicine concentration with 24- or 48-hour soaking time can induce tetraploid plants (4n=48) with different coefficients of variance (CV-x%), 5.36%, 4.65%, 6.08%, respectively. Vigorous growth phenotype in leaf size and plant height was more clearly seen in the one-month-old tetraploid Katokkon chili seedlings induced by 0.10% with a soaking time of 48 hours.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effects of auxin types and their concentrations on rooting of the rootstock cuttings and BA on grafting. First, IBA, NAA or IBA+NAA, each at 0, 1000, 2000, and 3000 ppm were used as treatments to study rooting of Piper colubrinum. In the second experiment, BA (0 and 50 ppm) was applied to P. nigrum scion clones of Natar-1 and Petaling-2, before being grafted to the rootstocks. Results showed, that all types of auxins (IBA, NAA or IBA+NAA) induced rooting and shoot growth, and the increase of auxin concentrations led to the increase of rooting. However, their effectiveness was different. NAA and IBA+NAA were superior to IBA, and at 2000 ppm, IBA+NAA resulted in the best plant growth, as indicated by higher values of both rooting and shoot growth parameters. Compared to control, BA treatment on scions resulted in higher grafting success (80% vs. 93%) for Natar-1, and (73% vs.100%) for Petaling-2 clones.  BA treatment on scions also induced more calluses in the graft union and better shoot growth. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the use of BA to increase success of grafting between P. nigrum and P. colubrinum.

Abstract

Maize production in Indonesia faces challenges of climate change, affecting the deviation of planting seasons and overall yield stability. This study evaluates the impact of biosullary application on maize growth and yield across two planting periods using a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD). With twenty-one experimental units and treatments replicated three times, the study encompassed 252 plants and 63 sample plants. Findings indicate Treatment P6 consistently produced the tallest plants (199.67 cm), highest number of leaves (13.33 at planting period 1, 12.00 at planting period 2), and fastest flowering period (39.00 days at planting period 1, 45.00 days at planting period 2). P6 also showed notable cob length (11.67 cm in period 1), while Treatment P5 excelled in period 2 with 13.00 cm. Treatment P5 recorded the highest 100-seed weight (26.33 grams at planting period 1, 22.67 grams at planting period 2). To sustain maize productivity, increasing fertilizer dosage at the planting period 2 is recommended. Biosullary application not only enhances maize growth and yield but also improves soil physical properties, boosts microbial vitality, and stabilizes soil pH. These findings highlight biosullary potential as a sustainable approach to mitigate climate impacts and enhance maize production in Indonesia.

Abstract

Bark and ambrosia beetles are commonly found in forest ecosystems, and their fungal symbionts act as plant pathogens. Accurate information on the presence and population levels of bark and ambrosia beetles is becoming an increasingly crucial to protect the forest ecosystem. This study compared multiple-funnel and bottle traps to monitor the bark and ambrosia beetles in two types of mahogany forest. Multiple-funnel and bottle traps were made from transparent polyethylene terephthalate bottles and baited with 95% ethanol. Two different mahogany forest management (monoculture and polyculture with coffee plants) were used in this study. A total of 2,367 bark and ambrosia beetle specimens were trapped in this study. This research recorded ten genera of Scolytinae and one Platypodinae genus. Xyleborus spp., X. crassiusculus, and P. cavipennis are three predominated ambrosia beetles collected in mahogany monoculture and polyculture. Euplatypus parallelus was identified as a representative of Platypodinae. Results showed that multiple-funnel traps baited with ethanol are effective to catch individuals and several species of bark and ambrosia beetles in mahogany forests. The choice of multiple-funnel or bottle traps is an important consideration in trap-based programs for monitoring or detecting invasive species in forest ecosystems.

Abstract

Agarwood is a highly valued fragrant wood and has been traded for its economic and medicinal value. The resin in agarwood is used to produce high value downstream products such as fragrances, oils, medicines, teas, cosmetic carvings, and luxury goods where the demand for these products remains consistent. Most of the agarwood-producing trees come from the genera of Aquilaria and Gyrinops, which belong to the Thymelaeaceae (Malvales) family. In addition, Aquilaria malaccensis and Gyrinops versteegii are the most cultivated agarwood producing trees in Malaysia and Indonesia, respectively. Nevertheless, the survival of the species is threatened by the overharvesting of the forest, which leads to strict regulation by the exporting nations for international trade. Interestingly, agarwood plantation is a viable option which able to generate income for local population without causing any harm to the ecosystems. However, a lack of research on seedling preparation for large-scale plantations, and the optimum nutrient management practices have slowed down the agarwood industry. Hence, this review article will highlight the most effective strategy for enhancing agarwood cultivation by focusing on proper nutrient management to boost agarwood production.

Abstract

Bacterial stalk rot is one of the important diseases in maize caused by Dickeya zeae. Infection of this disease can lead to a considerable amount of loss in yield, with up to 98 percent loss of yield. The use of resistant materials is the most effective approach to managing bacterial stalk rot in maize. This study evaluates a large-scale phenotypic screening of 624 maize lines against bacterial stalk rot, divided into two groups based on a heterotic pool. These lines are used in a commercial breeding program in Indonesia. This study develops a stabbing method with a large gauge hypodermic needle, allowing for scalability in delivering inoculum while performing large-scale line evaluation. The result from ANOVA reveals a significant (P<0.05) effect of lines, day after infection, and interaction between day after infection and group. Group two displays fewer resistant lines compared to group one. This work presents a method for large-scale line evaluation for resistance against bacterial stalk rot, where the information obtained can be used in industrial breeding programs for routine material screening during the development of new lines or hybrids and for genomic studies of bacterial stalk rot resistance.

Abstract

The quality of artificial diets is important to produce high quality cultures of S. frugiperda. The research aimed to determine the effect of artificial diets based on wild plants on the growth and development of Spodoptera frugiperda. The plants used for enriching artificial diets were Zea mays (control), Ipomoea aquatic, Ipomoea reptans, Amaranthus hybridus, Morus rubra, Brachiaria mutica, and Setaria sphacelata. The results showed that S. frugiperda larvae consuming artificial diets enriched with A. hybridus, Z. mays, I. reptans, and I. aquatic leaves had higher body weight, lower larval mortality and abnormal pupae compared to those of B. mutica, S. sphacelata and M. rubra leaves. The adult females from larvae-consuming diets enriched with A. hybridus, Z. mays, I. reptans, I. aquatica, and S. sphacelata leaves had higher fecundity compared to those of other diets. However, diet enriched with S. sphacelata leaves caused higher larval mortality. Thus, the more suitable diets to increase the larval growth and survival, and adult emergence and fecundity were the diets enriched with wild host plants (A. hybridus, I. reptans, and I. aquatic leaves). Using weed or wild host plant leaves to produce artificial diets is feasible for mass-rearing S. frugiperda.

Abstract

The Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer (DSSAT) cropping system model is a part of the management module that processes user inputs describing crop management. The precision and accuracy of cropping models require recent research to calibrate and validate models according to climate changes and new cultivars. This study aims to determine the genetic coefficient (GC) of the mung bean variety KUML4 for the CSM-CROPGRO Model and compare predicted data from the model with observed data in the phenology, growth, yield and yield component used in DSSAT. Mung bean is planted in two seasons (dry and rainy seasons) at two locations. Plant growth is monitored at V4, R3, R6 and R7. DSSAT CROPGRO-cowpea model is used to calibrate the GC with the generalized likelihood uncertainty estimation (GLUE). Results show that the GC evaluation of mung bean by using the second planting date in the highest growth and yield plot, then the genetic coefficient of KUML4 was calibrated by GLUE until predicted values of plant growth and development were close to observed values. The GC of KUML4 mung bean could estimate growth, such as shoot weight, leaf area index, and plant height. The prediction of mung bean yield is acceptable.

Abstract

Erosion is the main problem that affects soil health related to agricultural activities, therefore this study aims to determine the level of erosion hazard in the Jenelata Sub Watershed. RUSLE is used to calculate erosion prediction using rainfall erosion information, soil erodibility value, topographic value and using maps for vegetation and conservation practices, so that erosion values are obtained for Buakkang, Bissoloro, Bontomanai, Jenebatu, Sapaya Village, Paranglompoa, Pattalikang, Tassese, Mangempeng, Paladigan, and Ronaloe. Each was divided into very low classes with land loss of less than 15 t/ha/year with a land area of 7812.38 ha. The low class was land loss of 15 to 60 t/ha/year with a land area of 3263.04 ha. The medium class was land loss of 60 to 180 t/ha/year with a land area of 694.76 ha. The high class was land loss of 180 to 480 t/ha/year with a land area of 3234.03 ha, and the very high class was land loss that is greater than 480 t/ha/year with a land area of 5272.67 ha. This study showed high and very high erosion with a land area of 3234.03 ha and 5272.67 ha and very low erosion with a land area of 7812.38 ha.

Abstract

Nutrient Use Efficiency (NUE) of Maize is considered low. There are two important factors  responsible for this condition: (a) uniform fertilizer recommendation, (b) lack of consideration on soil variability, Indigenous Nutrient Supply and plant nutrient needs.  A method for studying low NUE and the capability of studying these two factors are urgently required. This study used Quantitative Evaluation of Fertility on Tropical Soils (QUEFTS) model. The main aim of this study was to employ and evaluate QUEFTS model for establishing site specific fertilizer recommendation in maize on the basis of farmer fields. Due to a unique characteristic of farmer field, it may be interesting to observe the pattern of soil fertility in relation to yields.  Six farmer's fields and thirty soil samples were taken and analysed in the laboratory. The results showed that QUEFTS model was a valuable tool to make fertilizer recommendation by using yields as an integrated indicator. The results also showed that QUEFTS model was a promising method for establishing fertilizer recommendation for maize. The merits of model for determining Indigenous Nutrient Supply, nutrient yield limiting factors, balanced fertilizer recommendation show that QUEFTS model is a valuable tool for site specific fertilizer recommendation.   Keywords: QUEFTS, recommendation, site specific, yield
