PENGARUH PERASAN BIJI PEPAYA (Carica papaya) TERHADAP KERUSAKAN TELUR Argulus japonicus
Abstract: Argulus japonicus
being parasite with blood sucking the host, do infestations by piercing the skin
of the host through a maxillule and preoral stylet. The infestation causes
ulceration and bleeding, thus giving access to secondary infection by bacteria,
fungi, viruses, and causes death. The act of controlling against Argulus
japonicus can be done by reduce in population which began in eggs stadium. Control
over A.japonicus can use natural insecticide that is papaya seeds. Papaya seeds
contain the active substance that are saponins, tannins, flavonoids, alkaloids
which act as a natural insecticide. The research design was a completely
randomized design with a treatment that were 0 ppt, 70 ppt, 80 ppt, 90 ppt, 100
ppt, and five replications. Data were analyzed by using analysis variance (ANAVA).
The results showed that the juice of papaya seeds affect the egg damage of
Argulus japonicus. Concentration of 100 ppt juice of papaya seeds can broken A.
japonicus eggs with the largest percentage is 100%. Concentration of 90 ppt
that percentage of eggs of A. japonicus were damaged by 83%, 74,25% of 80 ppt
concentration, 59% of 70 ppt concentration, and 0% of control. Optimal
concentration of papaya seeds which resulted in the amount of damage more than
50% of Argulus japonicus eggs is 80 ppt.
