Description
Summary:The obstacle in improving production of soybean is the attack of Cowpea mild mottle virus (CMMV). CMMV infection in the field by vector insect Bemisia tabaci. Entomopathogen fungi Lecanicillium lecanii is effective in killing insects from homoptera ordo particularly Bemisia tabaci. Result of this study reveal that the higher conidia density in fungi L. lecanii, the more pathogenic this fungi in killing B. tabaci thus CMMV intensity contaminated by vector insects is lower. Death of tested insects infected by fungi L. lecanii was highlighted with white color mycelium colony that covers insect body. Conidia density of fungi L. lecanii is effective in killing B. tabaci 108/ml with mortality rate 68.5% so that reduce CMMV attack intensity. The faster incubation period of fungi L. lecanii toward insect would result lower ability of B. tabaci in spreading CMMV until reaching 3.43%. The large seed soybean (Argomulyo) has trichoma density 127.18/cm2 which is more vulnerable to be infected with CMMV compared with small seed soybean (Wilis) which has trichoma density 182.83/cm2. Attack intensity of CMMV in Argomulyo variety is reaching 29.89% while attack intensity in Wilis variety only reach 23.94%. Reviewed from the efficacy of the fungi L. lecanii in killing B. tabaci, the results of this study can be concluded 108/ml conidial density is an effective dose. The use of small seed soybean varieties (Willis) with a density of more tightly trichoma can pressess B. tabaci’s attack and CMMV infection on soybean plants.
