Potential of using tropical brown macroalgae sargassum cristaefolium meal in the diets for juvenile white shrimp (litopenaeus vannamei)
The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of different dietary levels of
tropical marine brown macroalgae, Sargassum cristaefolium meal (SCM) on growth
performance and feed utilization efficiency of juvenile white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei
(mean initial weight 2.65±0.1 g). The algae were collected from Bandengan Coast, Jepara,
Indonesia. The study used a completely randomized design with 5 treatments of dietary
different S. cristaefolium meal levels (0, 10, 20, 30, and 40 g algae meal/kg feed) in triplicates.
The results showed that the different levels of dietary SCM did not significantly affect
(P>0.05) average daily growth (ADG;.204-224 mg/day) and survival (80-97%) of the shrimp
after a 42-day feeding period. However, the test diets significantly affected (P<0.05) feed
intake (FI), feed conversion ratio (FCR), and protein efficiency ratio (PER). Better FCR (2.13)
and PER (1.34) was found by the diet with 2% SCM compared to the control diet (no SCM)
(FCR 3.42 and PER 0.81). This finding indicates that the supplement of dietary 2% SCM (20
g/ kg feed) can increase the feed utilization efficiency up to 62% or reduce the FCR up to 38%
without any adverse in growth performance
Prospect of Using Bacterial Bio-formulation to Suppress Bacterial Leaf Blight of Rice: a Case Study in Cianjur, West Java
Bacterial leaf blight (BLB) caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) is a major disease of rice in Indonesia which remains difficult to be controled. A number of bacterial isolates had been collected and screened for their ability to antagonize Xoo disease. Six isolates with the highest antagonistic potential and wide spectrum were chosen for studies based on their ability to control the disease. Bio-formulations consisted of single or mixtures (consortium) of the bacterial antagonists were formulated and tested for their effectiveness to control BLB under field trials in Cianjur, West Java. Efficacy of the bio-formulations against the disease on different rice cultivars varied significantly with HDB reductions ranging from 10.5% to 29.4% among the cultivars tested in the WS 2010/2011. The mixture of A6 + A8-bentonite showed a good ability to reduce BB infestation by up to 25%. Performance of the A6+A8-bentonite formulation also exceeded those of the individual isolate formulations, such as Burkholderia spp. E76-bentonite and S. marcescens SKM-kaolin. Application of the bacterial mixture formulation did not affect significantly on rice plant height, number of tillers, and weight of 1000 grains, but increased grain yield up to 8%. This study showed that the advantages of single or mixed cultures were apparent and further evaluation for application of bio-formulation need to be done under more intensive field conditions
Karakterisasi dan Identifikasi Isolat Bakteri Endofitik Penghambat Jamur Patogen Padi
Disease caused byfungal pathogens often causing damage on rice crop. Thisstudy was aimed to characterize 10 endohytic bacterial isolatesin suppression of rice pathogenic fungi. Characterization by invitro test showed several endophytic isolates effective againstfungal pathogen Rhizoctonia solani (Rs) and Pyriculariaoryzae (Po). The bacterial culture filtrates could inhibit radialgrowth of fungal colonies with the Rs ranged percentageinhibition of 32.9-99.4%, whilst inhibition against Po wereranged from 3-98.2%, respectively. Based on chitinase assay,it was indicated that gram negative bacteria of E 76 isolateproduced clear zone and highest chitinolytic index. Theanalysis to the base sequence (total 1,322 bp) using 16s rRNAgene sequencing revealed that E76 isolates had 99% similaritywith Burkholderia sp
Control of Anthracnose Disease (Colletotrichum Gloeosporioides) Using Nano Chitosan Hydrolyzed by Chitinase Derived From Burkholderia Cepacia Isolate E76
Anthracnose (Colletotrichum gloeosporioides) is one of the important diseases of fruit crops that need to be controlled. This study was aimed to obtain the best formula of hydrolyzed nano chitosan and its potensial in controlling anthracnose. The hydrolyzed chitosan was prepared using chitinase enzyme extracted from Burkholderia cepacia isolate E76. Chitosan nanoparticles were synthesized using ionic gelation method by reacting hydrolyzed chitosan (0.2%) with Sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) (0.1%) as cross-linking agent using 30&ndash;60 minutes stirring condition. The bioactivity of the nano chitosan formula was tested to C. gloeosporioides under in vitro and in vivo assays. The specific enzymatic activity of the purified chitinase was higher (0.19 U/mg) than that of crude enzyme (supernatant) with the purity increased by 3.8 times. Of the four formula tested, Formula A (hydrolyzed chitosan to STPP volume ratio of 5 : 1 with 60 minutes stirring condition) was found good in terms of physical characteristic of the particle. The formula nano chitosan particle had the spherical-like shape with an average particle size of 126.2+3.8 nm, polydispersity index (PI) of 0.4+0.02, and zeta potential (ZP) value of 27.8+0.2 mV. Nano chitosan had an inhibitory activity to C. gloeosporioides in vitro up to 85.7%. Moreover, it could inhibit 61.2% of C. gloeosporioides spores germination. It was shown that nano chitosan was also effective to reduce anthracnose disease severity in vivo when applied as a preventive measure on Chili and papaya fruits. This study could be used as a reference for further fruit coating application using nano chitosan as a promising postharvest biocontrol agent to C. gloeosporioides
