Abstract

One of the factors that limits the cultivation of oil palm plants is the presence of infection from stem rot disease (BPB). Estimated losses due to BPB can reach 80% in oil palm plantations. The cause of BPB is the Ganoderma boninense fungus. Several methods of controlling the G. boninense fungus have been carried out, including physical control through sanitation techniques and using synthetic fungicides. Long-term use of synthetic functionalities will have a negative impact on the environment. An environmentally safe control alternative to suppress G. boninense infection is to use biocontrol agents from the group of microorganisms. One approach that has the potential to be effective in controlling BPB is biological control. This research aims to obtain isolates of indigenous endophytic bacteria that have potential for the pathogen G. boninense. The research method includes taking samples of healthy oil palm plants among plants infected with G. boninense. Next, isolation of endophytic bacteria, screening of endophytic bacteria, macroscopic and microscopic morphological characteristics of endophytic bacteria, and antagonism test of endophytic bacteria against G. boninense were carried out. The results of this research obtained potential endophytic bacteria against G. boninense.
