Abstract

Spent mushroom substrates are potential for controlling plant diseases. This study examined the abilities of spent substrates of Shiitake (L. edodes) and Oyster (P. ostreatus) mushrooms to inhibit the growth of R. solani in vitro and control damping-off disease in tomato seedling. The in vitro experiment examined the abilities of water extract of spent mushroom substrate non-sterile and sterile to inhibit the pathogen using poisonous food method. In the nursery experiment, substrates were mixed with the planting medium, 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3 (v/v). The result showed that the water extract of spent substrates of L. edodes and P. ostreatus inhibited the growth of R. solani by 29.1% – 40.6%. Non sterile water extract of spent substrate of P. osteratus showed highest inhibition level (40%). In tomato nursery, mixing  spent substrates of L. edodes or P. ostreatus with planting medium 1:2, and 1:3 (v/v) inhibited damping-off disease in tomato seedling by 57.5% - 100%.  Application of P. ostreatus spent substrate in the planting medium, 1:2 and 1:3 (v/v) resulted in 100% inhibition of the disease.Key words: tomato seedlings, water extract, spent mushroom substrate, in vitro

Abstract

Penyakit bercak coklat yang disebabkan oleh jamur Alternaria solani Sorr. merupakan salah satu penyakit penting pada tanaman tomat. Cara pengendalian penyakit bercak coklat yang biasa dilakukan adalah dengan penyemprotan fungisida sintetik. Mengingat berbagai dampak negatif dari penggunaan pestisida yang terus-menerus, maka perlu dikembangakan cara pengendalian ramah lingkungan seperti pengendalian secara biologi. Bakteri dan jamur merupakan mikrob yang berpotensi sebagai agens biokontrol penyakit tanaman. Salah satu sumber dari agens antagonis patogen tanaman adalah air rendaman kompos. Paper ini mendiskusikan hasil penelitian yang mengevaluasi kemampuan bakteri mikrob yang diisolasi dari air rendaman kompos berbahan dasar kotoran sapi dan domba untuk menghambat pertumbuhan A. solani in vitro dan menekan penyakit yang disebabkan patogen tersebut pada buah dan tanaman tomat. Percobaan secara in vitro menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap, sementara pengujian pada buah dan tanaman tomat menggunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok. Isolasi mikrob dari air rendaman kompos berbahan dasar kotoran sapi dan domba menghasilkan 35 isolat, yang mana 11 isolat (enam isolat bakteri dan lima isolat khamir) dapat menghambat pertumbuhan A. solani secara in vitro sebesar 79,3%-84,2% dengan zona hambat sebesar 0,0-28,3 mm. Pada pengujian secara in vivo, lima isolat non-patogenik (dua isolat bakteri dan tiga isolat khamir) dapat menekan penyakit bercak coklat pada buah tomat sebesar 100% dan pada daun tomat sebesar 77,5%-98,1%. Isolat-isolat ini berpotensi untuk dikembangkan lebih lanjut sebagai agens biokontrol penyakit bercak coklat pada tanaman tomat.
