Our study aims to determine the agronomic performances of the red chili pepper genotypes developed by the IPB University as compared to the existing commercial varieties. The study was conducted from June 2019 to April 2020 in the Leuwikopo and Tajur experimental fields, IPB University, Bogor, West Java, Indonesia. Leuwikopo and Tajur location differs in the soil type and environments. The experiments at Leuwikopo were conducted twice, once during the dry season, and once during the rainy season. The experiments were set up in a completely randomized block design with a single factor, i.e. sixteen red chili pepper lines, replicated three times in three different environments. The 11 lines evaluated were F8120005-141-16-35-1-3, F8120005-141-16-35-1-4, F8120005-141-16-35-7-1, F8120005-241-2-9-4- 4, F7120005-120-7-1-7-8-1-2, F6074-7-4-2-1, F4074136-2-3, F474077-1, F474035-2-1, F474035-2, F4136074-1-4; these lines were compared to five commercial chili varieties, “Laris”, “Gada” F1, “Kastilo” F1, “Anies IPB”, “Seloka IPB”. Measurements were conducted on time to harvest, fruit length, fruit diameter, weight per fruit, number of fruits per plant, fruit weight per plant, and productivity. The results showed that the curly and large red chili pepper genotypes had similar agronomic performances to the control curly variety “Laris” and “Kastilo” F1, and and “Anies IPB”, “Seloka IPB”, or “Gada” F1 as control variety for the large chili. Our study demonstrated that all large and curly red chili pepper lines developed in IPB University have excellent potentials to be commercialized into superior varieties.

Nitrogen inputs; sources or application amounts are key determinants of yield determination and determination of resistance or sensitivity to pathogen activities. This study aimed at assessing the impact of source and rate of application of N fertilizers on Rice Brown Leaf Spot (RBLS) disease incidences and dynamics in lowland irrigated rice crops. Leaf N using relative leaf chlorophyll content, leaf N concentration and crop yield were assessed during the wet 2018/19, 2019/20 and 2020/21 seasons and dry 2019 and 2020 seasons in the field research facility of Rajarata University of Sri Lanka. The conventional systems (The Department of Agriculture recommended inorganic fertilizer application at 100% N), integrated system (50% N with conventional through inorganic fertilizer and 25% N with organic manure mixture), and organic system (50% of N conventional through organic manure) were tested using a new improved rice variety Bg300, using a randomized complete block design with six replicates. Wet and dry seasons were contrastingly different in disease prevalence, where critical levels of incidences were visible earlier in the wet season compared to the dry season. Initial stages of the study, organic systems resulted in higher disease incidences, thus reaching infections of the full crop before conventional and integrated. Several seasons of continuous organic manure incorporation enhanced the resistance of organic systems to RBLS disease compared to the rest. The leaf N concentrations were higher in conventional, thus the RBLS incidences were relatively low, due to negative correlations between disease incidences. Rice yields also resulted in a significant negative correlation with disease incidences and were diminished in integrated and organic systems later. The yield suppression due to diseases such as RBLS in organic transition can be overcome by using an integrated approach and building a balanced substitutable nutrient management strategy.

Ground cherry (Physalis peruviana) seeds have a period of dormancy after ripening. A study was conducted to understand the mechanism of dormancy, the duration of after ripening persistence, and to determine the effective methods to break dormancy. The study was conducted in an experimental field at Ciwidey, West Java, Indonesia, and the Seed Testing Laboratory, Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Agronomy and Horticulture, IPB University, in February to November 2020. The first study examined the effects of the storage temperatures, i.e. 20 ±2 oC and 25 ± 2oC, and the seed maturity stages, i.e. 49 days after anthesis (DAA), 58 DAA and 62 DAA. Several methods to break seed dormancy were tested, i.e. soaking seeds for 24 hours in distilled water, in 0.5% or 1% KNO3 and, 50 ppm GA3. The results showed that the seed dormancy was broken at 7 weeks after treatment, indicated by seed germination of >80%. The ABA levels of the seeds declined from week 0 to week 11, and the seed ABA and GA reached a balance from week 7 to week 11. Seeds treated with KNO3 or distilled water break dormancy after 8 weeks. The most effective treatment to break seed dormancy is the use of exogenous hormone GA3 at 50 ppm, with seed germination of >80% at week 5.

Seed invigoration is a pre-planting seed treatment by balancing the seed water potential and stimulating their metabolic activities so that the seeds germinate simultaneously. In this study, invigoration treatments were applied to improve the quality of the true seeds of shallots (TSS) that had started to deteriorate. Invigoration increases the moisture content of the seeds so the seeds need to be re-dried to extend their storability. The aims of the study were to determine the best invigoration treatment and the drying method to maintain the benefit of invigoration, and to prolong TSS storability after invigoration and drying. This research was conducted at the Laboratory of Seed Quality Testing, IPB University, Indonesia, and consisted of three experiments, i.e., invigoration of deteriorating TSS to improve their viability and vigor, drying after invigoration to extend seed storability, and seed storability after invigoration and drying treatments. The first experiment was arranged in completely randomized design with one-factor (invigoration solutions), i.e. control, medium containing 3% KNO3, 50 ppm GA3, 0.5 % ZnSO4 or PEG6000 -10 bar. The second experiment was conducted using a two-factor completely randomized design, drying temperature (20˚C, 30˚C, and 40˚C), and drying duration (8 hours, 16 hours, 32 hours, and 48 hours). The third experiment was arranged in a nested design with two factors. The first factor was a seed storage condition, i.e., ambient temperature, air-conditioned room, and refrigerator. The second factor was seed packages, i.e., aluminum foil and polypropylene plastic. Non-invigorated seeds were used as control. The studies were conducted on two shallot varieties separately, “Trisula” and “Lokananta”, except in the third experiment which only used “Lokananta”. The results showed that invigoration in 3 % KNO3 and 50 ppm GA3 effectively improved the vigor of deteriorating TSS. Drying the seeds at 40˚C for 8 hours was the most effective method to reduce seed moisture content without reducing the benefit of invigoration. Storing the invigorated TSS in an air-conditioned room with aluminum foil packaging, or in a refrigerator with aluminum foil or plastic packaging until 14 weeks maintained the benefit of invigoration. The quality of the invigorated TSS was maintained until 14 weeks in an air-conditioned room with aluminum foil packaging, or in a refrigerator with aluminum

A study was conducted to determine the metabolic contents of corms of three species of Amorphophallus, A. muelleri, A. paeoniifolius, and A. variabilis using gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GCMS) with water as polar solvent. The corms were collected from plants cultivated at the Leuwikopo Experimental Station, IPB University, Darmaga, Bogor, Indonesia. Metabolic profiling conducted at the Jakarta Regional Health Laboratory, Indonesian Ministry of Health, demonstrated that the three species of Amorphophallus vary in metabolic content, specifically for 12 compounds belonging to antioxidants, vitamins, saturated fatty acids, polyunsaturated fatty acids, phytosterol, alcohol, aldehyde, and alkane. Our study had shown that metabolic profiling is a potentially useful method of differentiating or determining species markers that in turn could be efficient way for genetic conservation and development of future food source.

Onion is one of the most valuable vegetable crops grown all over the world, but its production is severely affected by abiotic stresses like drought, waterlogging, and the acidic nature of the soil. An experiment was conducted to study the morphological and yield contributing characters of four onion genotypes (Indian Onion-1, Indian Onion-2, Indian Onion-3, and Local onion) in the acidic soil condition at Sylhet region, Bangladesh. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Results showed that four genotypes of onion differed significantly for all the morphological and yield characters. The total yield was positively correlated with plant height, bulb fresh weight, bulb diameter, bulb length, leaf sheath fresh weight, leaf sheath dry weight, root fresh and dry weight. Considering yield and yield attributing traits, Indian Onion-2 performed better in acidic soil and had the highest in bulb fresh weight (72.60 g), total yield (1.78 t.ha-1), and moisture content, followed by Indian Onion-3. Therefore, Indian Onion-2 can be selected as the best genotype for acidic soil in the Sylhet region, Bangladesh.

Bulb yield and quality of the onion is constrained by a number of factors, including inappropriate transplanting age and poor fertilizer management practices. Therefore, a field experiment was conducted to determine the best transplanting date on quality, combined with phosphorus level, on onion yield of onion. The study was conducted at Alaba, Ethiopia, during 2018/19 season. The treatments consisted of four phosphorus levels, i.e., 0, 20, 40 and 60 kg.ha-1, and three transplanting dates, i.e., 42, 49 and 56 days, from sowing. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with four replications. The result showed that transplanting date and phosphorus rate significantly affected bulb dry weight and marketable bulb yield which includes medium and large sized bulbs. Among these parameters, marketable bulb yield was also significantly affected by the interaction of transplanting date and phosphorus rate. In this study, onion fertilized with P at 60 kg.ha-1 transplanted at 56 days had the highest marketable bulb yield. The economic analysis revealed that the highest net benefit with the lowest cost of production was obtained from the application of P at 40 kg.ha-1 and the transplanting at 56 days. The marginal rate of return for this treatment was economically feasible for producing onion bulb in the districts.

Most rice growers in Indonesia use herbicides for weed control. However, intensive use of herbicides can lead to the weeds to become resistant to the chemicals. The objective of this study was to determine the resistance status of weeds Ludwigia octovalvis, Sphenoclea zeylanica, Monochoria vaginalis in lowland rice in West Java, Indonesia. The study was started by planting three species of weeds, L. octovalvis, S. zeylanica, M. vaginalis, which were then treated with metsulfuron-methyl and penoxsulam herbicides. The study was conducted from January to May 2020 at Cikabayan Experimental Greenhouse, IPB University. The experiment was arranged in a randomized complete block design with four replications. The first factor was the origin of weeds, exposed weeds (Karawang and Subang), and not exposed to herbicides (Bogor); the second factor was the rates of the herbicide, i.e., 0, 2.5, 5, 10, 20, 40, 80 and 160 g. ha-1 for metsulfuron- methyl, and 0, 50, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, and 3200 ml.ha-1 for penoxsulam. The results showed that based on the resistance ratio, S. zeylanica and M. vaginalis from Karawang and Subang, and L. octovalvis from Subang, indicated a low resistance to metsulfuron-methyl, L. octovalvis from Karawang was still sensitive to metsulfuron-methyl. L. octovalvis, S. zeylanica, and M. vaginalis from Karawang and Subang were still sensitive to penoxsulam herbicides. This information would be useful to develop a strategy of weed management for important food crops.
印度尼西亚的大多数水稻种植者使用除草剂来控制杂草。然而，大量使用除草剂会导致杂草对化学物质产生抗药性。本研究旨在测定印度尼西亚西爪哇低地水稻中八瓣Ludwigia octovalvis、黄斑蝶叶、阴道单毛菌(Monochoria vaginalis)的抗性状况。该研究首先种植了三种杂草，即八瓣草、泽兰草和阴道草，然后用甲磺隆-甲基和培诺舒兰除草剂对它们进行处理。该研究于2020年1月至5月在IPB大学Cikabayan实验温室进行。试验采用随机完全区组设计，每组4个重复。第一个因素是杂草的来源，暴露的杂草(卡拉旺和苏邦)，而没有暴露除草剂(茂物);第二个因素是除草剂用量，甲磺隆用量为0、2.5、5、10、20、40、80和160 g / ha-1，培诺舒兰用量为0、50、100、200、400、800、1600和3200 ml / ha-1。结果表明，从抗性比上看，来自卡拉旺和苏邦的泽兰黑穗病螨、阴道乳杆菌和苏邦的八瓣乳杆菌对甲磺隆-甲基抗性较低，来自卡拉旺的八瓣乳杆菌对甲磺隆-甲基仍敏感。卡拉旺和苏邦的八瓣乳杆菌、泽兰乳杆菌和阴道乳杆菌对培诺舒兰类除草剂仍敏感。这些信息将有助于制定重要粮食作物的杂草管理战略。

A study was conducted to determine the optimum seed rate and row spacing on Kekeba bread wheat seed yield and quality performance at Adet and Wonberema, Ethiopia. The study consists of field experiments that were conducted at Adet Research Center and Wonberema farmer’s field during the 2018 and 2019 cropping seasons, and laboratory experiments at the Seed Science Laboratory at Adet Research Centre. A factorial combination of eight seed rates (75, 100,125, 150, 175, 200, 225, and 250 kg.ha-1) and two-row spacing (20 cm and 30 cm) was arranged in a randomized complete block design with three replications, and laboratory experiment in a complete randomized design with four replications. The results showed that the interaction effect of seed rate and row spacing was significantly (P<0.05) affected seed yield but had non-significant (P>0.05) on physical quality, physiological, and seedling vigor. Seed rate and row spacing had a significant (P<0.05) effect on standard germination, speed of germination, vigor index-I, and vigor index-II, but a pure seed was not significantly affected by the main effects and interaction. Based on the economic analysis at Adet, the maximum seed yield (4.4 t.ha-1) was obtained from a seed rate of 125 kg.ha-1 with 20 cm row spacing, and at Wonberema the maximum seed yield (3.26 or 3.17 t.ha-1) were obtained from a seed rate of 150 or 125 kg.ha-1 with 30 cm row spacing. Therefore, a seed rate of 125 kg.ha-1 with 20 cm row spacing was recommended at Adet, and at Wonberema seed rates of 150 and 125 kg.ha-1 with 30 cm row spacing was recommended for high seed yield and quality seed production as the 1st and the 2nd options, respectively.

The winged bean (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus L.) is a member of the Fabaceae family (beans). Winged bean is developed as a vegetable, and young winged bean pods can be consumed fresh, steamed, fried, or pickled. In Southeast Asia, winged bean pods are generally cooked or consumed as side dishes or salad. Winged bean contains high protein content equivalent to soybean seed. Besides being rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals, the winged bean also has secondary metabolites, including phenolics and flavonoids. This study aimed to identify secondary metabolites in young pods of two varieties, “Fairuz” and “Sandi”, at two different harvest ages of 8 and 10 days after anthesis (DAA) and provide the biological activity on each identified compound. The experiment was conducted at the IPB experimental field at Leuwikopo, Bogor, from September 2020 to February 2021. The identification of secondary metabolites of the young green pods “Fairuz”, and the young purple pods “Sandi”, was performed using the GCMS method at the Regional Health Laboratory (KESDA) DKI Jakarta. The results of the GCMS analysis showed that 1,2-enzenedicarboxylic acid, mono(2-Ethylhexyl) ester was the most abundant compound identified from pods harvested at 8 DAA in both varieties, namely 42.26% in “Fairuz” and 26.66% in “Sandi”. Other compounds, 9,12,15-Octadecatrienoic acid, ethyl ester, (Z, Z, Z) (Linoleic acid ester), were found in “Fairuz”, whereas (9E,12E)-9,12-Octadecadienoic acid (Linoleic acid) was found in “Sandi”; these compounds are hydroxyl group and phenolic glucoside compounds and are found in pods harvested at 10 DAA.
