Media Alternatif untuk Pertumbuhan Jamur Menggunakan Sumber Karbohidrat yang Berbeda

Abstract: Fungi needs utrient, a source of energy and certain environmental conditions in order to growth. PDA  was  a common medium  used to grow fungi in laboratories. The high of instant media PDA encourage researchers to find out alernatif media of the raw materials was easily available and more cheap. This researche determine the fungal growht in alternative media on carbohydrate source of the  Canna edulis, Dioscorea aculeata and Maranta arundinacea. This study was an experimental studi using Completely Randomize Design (CDR),two factor. The first factor is a type of fungi: Candida albicans (J1), Aspergillus niger (J2). The second factor was  the types  of alternative media:  the  media of Canna edulis  (M1),Discorea esculenta  (M2) and  Maranta arundinaceae  L (M3). The collected data is analized by using qualitative descriptive. In this research Candida albicans was tested by spread method at 28oC for 2 days, Aspergillus niger by agar block method was tested at 30oc for 7 days.  The result show that growth of  Candida albicans  best on medium  Canna edulis  with a population of 2,87×108 CFU/ml and the size of fungal colony was  large white, while the growth of  Aspergillus niger best on medium Canna edulis with a diameter about 39,7 mm and heavy sporulation. Both of fungi test showed  that  almost  comparable  growth  of  PDA.  Media  Canna  edulis,  Dioscorea  aculeata  and  Maranta arundinacea can be used as alternatives media for fungal growth.
