Spodoptera litura is a plant pest that eats all parts of the plant, especially mustard greens, and is very dangerous to farmers. The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of fungal colonization on pak choi seeds by seed treatment on S. litura mortality. This research uses a Randomized Block Design (RBD) method with 20 mushroom treatments and 1 sterile water control, consisting of and…
Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Yponomeutidae) is an oligophagous pest that causes significant production losses in Brassicaceae crops, resulting in economic losses of around 4-5 billion USD per year worldwide. This study used a Randomized Block Design (RBD) to test the pathogenicity of 20 endophytic fungal isolates against P. xylostella larvae through seed treatment on pak choi (Brassica rap…
Insect pest attacks on plants are very detrimental, such like aphids and Spodoptera frugiperda on maize. The use of pesticides to deal with insect pests is not recommended because they have the potential damage the environment, so biological agents can be used to control insect pest attacks. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae on V…
Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is an invasive pest of cereal crops in Africa and three other countries namely India, Myanmar, and Thailand that causes a lot of damage. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of entomopathogenic fungi on the development and hatching time of T. remus. The method used in this study was to observe the effect of entomopatho…
Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) is one of the important pests in maize, this pest damages the vegetative phase so that plant growth is interrupted or die. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of entomopathogenic fungi on the development and hatching time of Telenomus remus (Nixon). The method used in this study is to observe the effect of entomopathogenic fungi on S. frugipe…
Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) is an important pest of widely cultivated corn plants. According to its origin, S. frugiperda originates from the Americas and has spread widely to other countries such as Australia, China, India, Malaysia, the Philippines and Thailand, including Indonesia. Besides attacking corn, it also attacks sorghum (the main host), as well as other monoculture crops such…
Spodoptera frugiperda was pest originated from America which caused significant losses to agricultural crops, especially maize. Maize that attacked by S. frugiperda would suffer heavy damage. One good way to control S. frugiperda was utilized natural enemy, such as entomopathogenic fungi. Many countries had used entomopathogenic fungi to controled S. frugiperda. Therefore, this study aimed to d…
