UJI POTENSI DAUN BABADOTAN (Ageratum conyzoides L.) SEBAGAI INSEKTISIDA BOTANI TERHADAP HAMA (Plutella xylostella L.) DI LABORATORIUM

Abstract

Diamond back moth (Plutella xylostella) [Lepidoptera: Plutellalidae] is the most important pest of Brasisca vegetable in many part of area in Indonesia. Pest control of this pest has been relied on the use of synthetic insecticide. However prolog use of insecticide cause ecological and economical problems. There is a need for pest control that are sustainable and eviromentally sound. The use of natural (botanical insecticide) such as Ageratum conyzoides is expected to solve that problem. The objective of this research was to test the capability of goatweed suspension to cause mortality P. xylostella larvae and to measure toxicity level (LC50 and LT50) of Ageratum extract. This research was conduched during Juli 2016- February 2017 in green house and laboratory. The results indicated that all of concentration of goatweed (1-5%) was able to cause mortality onP. xylostella larvae. The lethal concentration for 50% mortality (LC50) value was 2,0254%. While the time need to kill 50% of P. xylostella larva were: 33.31 h, 20.68 h, 21.09 h, 12.65 h, 10.86 h treated by concentration of: 1%, 2%, 3%, 4% and 5% respectively. This study indicated the potential use of Ageratum extract to contol P. xylostella.

The Potential of Billygoat Weed Leaf Extract (Ageratum Conyzoides) in Increasing Platelet Counts of Male Mice (Mus Musculus)

“…One of the plants is Ipomoea batatas L. or known as sweet potato. It can increase the number of platelets by 224% because it contains polyphenol compounds, flavonoids (Hidayati & Harjono, 2017;Wati et al, 2014), and tannins (Nurhudiman et al, 2018;Rabbaniyah, 2015).…”

Short Communication: Papaya (Carica papaya) seed extract test againts Spodoptera litura mortality

“…ANOVA analysis was used to determine the effect of papaya seed extract and continued with Duncan's test to determine the significant difference in papaya seed filtrate concentration on the mortality of armyworm larvae effect. The percent mortality value is obtained from the formula: (Nurhudiman et al 2018) Where: a= Number of dead larvae b= Total Number of larvae tested…”

PENGARUH KONSENTRASI EKSTRAK DAUN KIPAHIT (Tithonia diversifolia) DAN BABADOTAN (Ageratum conyzoides) TERHADAP KETERJADIAN PENYAKIT MOLER (Fusarium oxysporum) DAN PERTUMBUHAN PADA BAWANG MERAH (Allium ascalonicum L.)

“…tinggi. Hal ini karena kipahit memiliki kandungan flavonoid yang berfungsi mengatur pertumbuhan pada akar, alkaloid memiliki senyawa berfungsi untuk menyuplai unsur-unsur yang dibutuhkan oleh tanaman, saponin sebagai anti fungi, triterpenoid sebagai anti mikroba dan tannin yang berfungsi melindungi tanaman dari gangguan hewan lain (Nurhudiman et al, 2018).…”
