Judul: Observation of Pests and Diseases of Intensive Microbial Technology for Chili Cultivation in Garut Regency, West Java
Abstrak: Teknologi mikrob intensif merupakan salah satu cara budi daya cabai bebas pestisida dengan menggunakan berbagai agens hayati yang dikenal karena keefektifannya dalam menekan hama dan penyakit pada tanaman cabai. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengukur kejadian dan keparahan hama penyakit tanaman cabai di lapangan. Penelitian terdiri dari dua perlakuan yaitu budi daya mikrob intensif dan konvensional. Penelitian ini dilakukan di Desa Curug Petir, Kecamatan Banyuresmi, Kabupaten Garut, dan Klinik Tanaman Departemen Proteksi Tanaman, Institut Pertanian Bogor, pada bulan September sampai Desember 2023. Pengamatan insidensi dan keparahan penyakit saat tanaman berumur 4, 7, 8, 10, dan 13 minggu setelah tanam. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada lahan dengan luas 1050 m2, menggunakan metode kuantitatif yaitu dengan mengadakan pengamatan terhadap 2 petak tanaman cabai. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan teknologi mikrob intensif mampu menggantikan peran pestisida, meningkatkan produksi dengan biaya pengendalian lebih rendah, serta memberikan nilai keuntungan ekologis maupun keamanan pangan.

Judul: Pengaruh aplikasi bakteri perakaran pemacu pertumbuhan tanaman pada tiga genotipe cabai (Capsicum annum L.) terhadap pertumbuhan tanaman serta kejadian penyakit penting cabai
Abstrak: In Indonesia, chilli was an important vegetable commodity refer to production area as well as it’s value, but production of chilli in Indonesia still very low. The low production was caused by a lack of proper cultivation techniques, seed quality, and pest and plant disease. Important disease that can decrease the production of chilli includes antrachnose disease, bacterial wilt, mosaic and mottle virus in chilli. The disease controlling effort that were recently developed and relatively safe for the environment, using Plant Growth-promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR). The objective of this study was to determine the effect of PGPR usage, that were P. fluorescens PG01 isolates, B. polymixa BG25 and a mixture of both isolates (PG01 + BG25) against agronomic characters and incidence of important diseases in the three genotypes of chilli (IPB C5, C10 IPB, and Kopay) on the field. The experiment was performed from February until November, 2009 on farmer land were located on Desa Cibatok I, Kecamatan Cibungbulang, Kabupaten Bogor. The experiment was arranged in split plot design, were randomly treated with bacterial group as main plots and genotypes as subplots. Four levels main plots were PGPR treatments isolates PG01, BG25, PG01 + BG25, and without PGPR treatment as a comparison. The three subplots were C10 IPB, C5 IPB, and Kopay. In the experiment there were 12 treatment combinations, each treatment consisted of three replications, so there are 36 experimental units. Each experimental unit consisted of 20 plants, with a total 720 plants were tested. PGPR treatments significantly influenced the plant height and number of branches, but gave no significant effect on leaves number. The highest growth improvement on vegetative phase was occurred by the mixed bacterial treatment (PG01 + BG25). IPB C10, C5 genotypes and varieties of IPB Kopay have different agronomic characteristics measured on plant height, number of branches and number of leaves. PGPR treatment did not affect significantly to crop production and disease incidence (antraknosa, bacterial wilt, TMV, CMV, and ChiVMV). Antrachnose infections most commonly found in Kopay varieties, while the bacterial wilt infection occurs more frequently in genotypes IPB C5.

Judul: Hamiltonian formulation for linear waves motion in two layers fluid
Abstrak: The surface wave could be considered as a wave that separates two fluids, namely water and air. Based on this assumption, it is introduced the interfacial wave, a wave between two layers of fluid with different density. The formulation of interfacial waves motion begins with deriving the base equation of irrotational ideal fluid. Furthermore, according to irrotational fluid assumption, the base equation can be stated in velocity potential. In this derivation, the fluids domain is assumed to be restricted by rigid lid boundary conditions, both at the upper and lower limit. Therefore, the interfacial waves motion can be explained in a hamiltonian formulation. In the hamiltonian formulation, total energy is defined as the sum of kinetic and potential energy. The hamiltonian system is obtained from reduction of kinetic energy by using the Dirichlet Neumann Operator. The resulted kinetic energy equation is nonlinear. Therefore, this form is linearized by first part of the Taylor expansion. This linearization gives a dispersion relation of linear wave. Based on this dispersion relation, the phase speed of the linear wave depends on the density ratio of the two layers fluid.
