Uji Patogenitas Spora Beauveria bassiana Strain Wamena Sebagai Agen Hayati terhadap Hama Penggerek Buah Kopi Hypothenemus hampei
Abstract: Study on virulence
test of Beauveria bassiana strain Wamena spore concentration toward
(Hypothenemus hampei Ferr.) has conducted at Laboratorium of Hayati BPTP Dinas
Perkebunan Provinsi Papua during February to April 2010. This study aimed to
identify the effectiveness of B. bassiana strain Wamena which has potency as
agent to control pest on fruit of Coffea sp caused by H. hampei. by dipping
fruit of Coffea sp into spore suspension. Complete random design was used in this
study. Four concentrations ( 0; 0.01%; 0.02%; 0.03% ; 0.04% and 0.05% of B.
bassiana spore and four replicates for each concentration were used. Mortality
of H. hampei was observed. Results of this study showed that all concentrations
of spore killed imago of Hypothenemus hampei Ferr. The highest mortality
reached 85.625% at 0.05% of spore within 10 days. Therefore, it could be
concluded that 0.05% of spore as effective concentration to control H. hampei.
Key words: Beauveria bassiana
strain Wamena, Hypothenemus hampei Ferr., Coffea sp., and spore as effective
concentration
