AS AN ANTAGONISM FUNGI IN INHIBITING THE GROWTH OF LASIODIPLODIA THEOBROMAE (SRIKAYA FRUIT ROT PATHOGEN)2024-04-18T09:49:17+00:00I Made Sudarmasudarma_made@ymail.comNi Nengah Darmiatinoreplygphjournals@gmail.com<p><strong>Srikaya fruit rot disease (<em>Annona squamosa </em>L.) is the main problem that affects the fruit when it is on the tree and after harvest. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out environmentally friendly alternative controls. Exophytic fungi such as <em>Aspergillus niger </em>and <em>Rhizopus </em>sp. provided high inhibition against <em>Lasiodiplodia theobromae </em>(srikaya fruit rot pathogen) of 80.71 ± 1.07% and 82.92 ± 0.50%, respectively. Meanwhile, the best endophytic fungus that is able to inhibit the growth of pathogens is <em>Neurospora </em>sp. and <em>Aspergillus </em>sp. with respective inhibition of 86.67 ± 3.14% and 88.35 ± 0.46% in vitro. In vivo test results showed that the fungi <em>A, niger </em>and <em>Aspergillus </em>sp. the best inhibition of each is 100%.</strong></p>2024-04-18T09:49:17+00:00##submission.copyrightStatement##
