Abstract

Fungi that grow in plant tissue without harming the host are called endophytic fungi. This fungus has the potential as a biological agent (biocontrol) in controlling plant diseases. One of the fungi that can cause disease in banana plants is Fusarium oxysporum, which can cause Fusarium wilt disease. Endophytic fungi have antagonistic properties in the form of nutritional competition and antibiosis. These antagonistic properties can be used as biological agents. The purpose of this study was to isolate and test the antagonistic activity of the endophytic fungus of banana plant (Musa paradisiaca L.) against the pathogenic fungus Fusarium oxysporum. This research is an experimental study, which begins with the isolation of endophytic fungi and then continues with the antagonism activity test. The results of the isolation obtained 4 isolates of endophytic fungi, namely: 1) isolate D1 (Phytium sp.); 2) isolate B1 (Aspergillus sp.); 3) isolate A1 (Trichoderma sp.); and 4) isolate A2 (Penicillium sp.). Based on the antagonism activity test, isolate A1 showed the best results in inhibiting the fungus Fusarium oxysporum through the mechanism of space and nutrient competition, while isolates that showed antibiotic activity were isolate A2. The results of the inhibition test using the dual culture method showed that, 2 isolates (B1 and A2) could inhibit the growth of the fungus Fusarium oxysporum. The highest percentage of inhibition was owned by isolate A2. Based on its ability to inhibit Fusarium oxyaporum, endophytic fungal isolates have the potential to be further developed as Fusarium oxysporum control agents.

Abstract

One of the main issues still faced by Indonesia is organic waste. This problem can be overcome by processing organic waste into eco-enzymes. Eco-enzymes contain alcohol and acetic acid, so they can be used as disinfectants and floor cleaners, dishwashing liquids, and detergents. This study aims to determine sensory characteristics such as aroma and color preferred by subjects for eco-enzyme production with the addition of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and fruit peel variations. All eco-enzymes were made from organic waste in the form of fruit peel mixed with sugar and water in a ratio of 3:1:10. To determine the effect of yeast addition, eco-enzymes were made with orange peel with 2 variations, namely: 1) with the addition of yeast; and 2) without the addition of yeast. In the analysis of the effect of fruit peel variations, eco-enzymes were made with 6 variations, namely: 1) orange peel; 2) orange peel and pineapple peel; 3) orange peel and banana peel; 4) orange peel and papaya peel; 5) orange peel and apple peel; and 6) a mixture of all fruit peels. After one month of fermentation, the obtained eco-enzyme products were analyzed for their sensory properties. According to the observations, the aroma characteristic of the obtained eco-enzymes is that all eco-enzyme products, on average, have a normal fermentation sour aroma, with the exception of eco-enzyme products with added yeast, which have a sharper alcohol aroma. Observations on the sensory properties of color showed that eco-enzymes have a characteristic color ranging from dark brown to light brown. Overall, most of the panelists preferred the aroma and color of eco-enzymes produced without the addition of yeast. Meanwhile, for different fruit peel variations, the panelists preferred the mixture of fruit peels compared to other variations.
