THE EFFECTS OF SOME DIFFERENT CULTURAL TECHNIQUES ON THE TRANSMISSION AND INFECTIOUS DEVELOPMENT OF PEPPER YELLOW LEAF CURL INDONESIA VIRUS ON RED CHILI
An experiment is conducted to investigate the effects of culturaltechniques on pepper yellow leaf curl disease caused by Pepper yellowleaf curl Indonesia virus (PepYLCIV). The investigation is conductedin the area where the disease has been endemic and Bemisiatabaci is abundant. Four cultural techniques are applied in separatelands and cannot interfere with each other. The methods applied areseed treatment, intercropping, trap cropping, and physical barrier.Seeds harvested from infected plants are used for seed treatmentexperiments, and local farmers use commercial sources for otherexperiments. The results confirmed that PepYLCIV was a seed-borne virus affected by hot water treatment at 65oC for 30 minutes.Turmeric crude extract could reduce the incidence and severity of thedisease. The tomato is a better intercrop than eggplant, mung bean,and soybean in reducing disease incidence, but their effects on diseaseseverity and yield reduction were not significantly different. Basil andmarigolds were better barrier crops compared to cosmos and zinnia. A125 cm high physical barrier using 50 mesh cheesecloth could reducethe disease incidence, but not the lower ones. Under different culturaltechniques, PepYLCIV causes a 40.00–52.32% chili yield reduction.
