Pengaruh Ekstrak Tembakau Sebagai Insektisida Botani Terhadap Perkembangan Lalat Buah (Drosophila Melanogaster)
Abstract: The important reason
is that botanical insecticides didn’t cause environmental damage and not harmful
to human health. As we know, tobacco leaf extract is one of many plant extract
that use as botanical insecticides.
It can kill
fruit fly (Drossophyla
melanogaster) that suck
domestic plant. On
the other hand tobacco leaves extract use as wound
therapy also. Those effects are caused
of the chemical compound such as
alkaloid, saponyn, flavonoid and polyfenol.The objective
of this study is to know
the impact of
tobacco leaf extract to
development of D.
melanogaster. Beside that,
we observe the
effective volume that
causes optimal impact. Therefore we mix four type of tobacco leaf
extract on D. melanogaster medium. In this case we apply 10 ml (P1), 20 ml
(P2), 30 ml (P3) and 0 (P0). Then we observe the mortality. Further the
mortality data is compiling by F analysis and LSD.The result shows that tobacco
leaf extract caused negative impact to development of
fruit fly on
all stage of
D. melanogaster (larvae,
pupae, adult). The
most effective impact seems
on P3. Hopefully,
the result of
this study might
useful to farmer
that use botanical
insecticide especially tobacco leaf user. So, user will have more
advantages, because it didn’t harmful to human health and environmental.
