| Summary: | Infestation of Nilaparvata lugens on rice in Malaysia is not as heavy compared to other Asian
countries, but still lower the rice yield production. Nilaparvata lugens is developing resistance
against chemical pesticide, therefore an alternative approach such as the application of botanical
pesticide is potential to control the N. lugens. The aims of this research were to determine the
synergistic activity in combination of Azadirachta indica and Piper sarmentosum emulsion
formulations extract against Nilaparvata lugens. Three formulations were developed were
coded as F1, F2, and F3. The F1 was selected as the best formulation because it in range of
good zeta potential value (-48.3 mV) and viscosity value (100.1 mPa/s), the lowest particle size
(202.5 nm), remained homogenous for centrifugation and stability test, polydispersity index
(PDI) value indicated it is in ideal monodisperse phase (0.359), low surface tension (31.3
mN/m) and low pH (3.65). The lethal concentration, LC50 and sub lethal, LC10 and LC25 were
determined from nymph mortality bioassay test on third instar N. lugens nymphs. Mortality rate
of F1 and F2 were 0.011 mg/l and F3 was 0.031 mg/l. The value of lethal and sublethal
concentration were used in a test against female N. lugens to determine the effect of
formulations on fecundity of N. lugens. There were significant differences between
formulations on the number of eggs produced after treatments. The lowest egg produced from
F1 with 128.11 number of eggs. It can be concluded that all formulations showed promising
result in controlling N. lugens. |
