Abstract

This study aims to identify microorganisms in the intestine of BSF and investigate the possibility of probiotic microorganisms from the intestines of BSF larvae to vegetative growth of tomato plant. Identifying microorganisms in the intestine of BSF larvae is done by observing the morphology, biochemical tests, slide culture, and Total Plate Count (TPC). The tomatoes plant was conducted by a completely randomized design (CRD) method with some treatments depending on the result of identification and three time repeats. After count the density with TPC, each treatment was given 50 mL of bacteria and fungus and control to tomato plant. The measured parameters are the stem height, number of leaves, and final root length. The data was analyzed by normality, homogeneity, Anova, and Tukey tests. Based on the research results, eight bacterial and two isolates were obtained from BSF intestinal isolates. They are Neisseria, Micrococcus, Bacillus, Paracolobactrum, Aerobacter and fungi from Genus Cladosporium dan Scopulariopsis this study showed that microorganisms from the intestines of BSF larvae genus Bacillus, Scopulariopsis, Micrococcus, Aerobacter and Paracolobactrum potential to increase the vegetative growth of tomato plants © 2023, Journal of Entomological Research.All Rights Reserved.
