USE OF EXOPHYTIC FUNGI IN SUPPRESSING ANTHRACHNOSE PATHOGENS ON RAMBUTAN FRUIT (Nephelium lappaceum L.) IN VITRO
Abstract
Anthracnose disease in rambutan fruit is caused by Colletotrichum fructicola which is found both in the harvest and post-harvest. The diversity index of exophytic fungi ranges from 0.4634 - 1.3143 with structural conditions from less stable to very rotten to moderate categories and with a score of 1-3. The dominance index of 0.643 - 0.773 is close to 1, this is supported by the uniformity index of 0.0816 - 1.1379, meaning that there are dominant species in the fruit exophyte, namely Neurospora sp, in the leaf exophyte Aspergillus flavus and in the stem exophyte Aspergillus niger. The highest in vitro inhibition of exophytic microbes on fruit was achieved by A. niger 4 of 92.22 ± 0.3%. In the leaf exophyte, the highest inhibition was achieved by A. niger 1 of 83.33 ± 0.2%. The highest inhibition on stem exophytes was achieved by Neurospora sp. 3 at 94.44±0.1%.
