| description | Bipolaris sorokiniana has been identified as a potential indigenous fungal plant pathogen to control
goosegrass (Eleusine indica) in oil palm plantations. However, for mass production, a suitable medium
and an optimum growing environment need to be identified. This study was conducted to determine the
suitable culture media and light duration requirements for optimal growth of B. sorokiniana. Four types
of culture media: Potato dextrose agar (PDA), corn meal agar (CMA), V8 agar (V8A) and water agar
(WA), were evaluated for the B. sorokiniana subculture. Three light durations (0, 12 and 24 hr) were
tested for B. sorokiniana growth. The growth diameter and colony-forming units of B. sorokiniana were
recorded. When compared to CMA, V8A, and WA media in the same light durations, B. sorokiniana
grew at maximum mean growth diameter at 12 hr light duration in PDA (4.56 cm), 24 hr light duration
in PDA (4.36 cm) and 0 hr light duration in PDA (4.21 cm). Bipolaris sorokiniana produced more CFU
during the 0 light duration than during the 12 hr and 24 hr light durations. Hence, this study shows that
B. sorokiniana has the potential for reproduction using PDA culture media without light. |
