This study aims to determine the optimal melatonin concentration on the efficiency of plantlet regeneration and expression of the antioxidant resistance gene in rice callus.

The height of the paddy stubble at the two locations is not very different. However, the infested stubble in the short fallow period is higher than those in the long fallow.

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 the disease. The tomato is a better intercrop than eggplant, mung bean, and soybean in reducing disease incidence, but their effects on disease severity and yield reduction were not significantly different.

The two biggest citrus production countries, China and Brazil, contributed 32,705.9 and 16,555.1 thousand tons, respectively (FAO, 2017). In 2019, citrus production in Indonesia was around 2.77 million tons. From 2015 to 2019, citrus production was estimated to increase at 3.64% per year (Pusat Data dan Sistem Informasi Pertanian, 2015). Citrus production was significantly increased over the last six years due to the agricultural intensification and the expansion of citrus plantations across Indonesia.

In contrast, in the other prominent citrus producing regions, including North Sumatra (Medan), East Java (Malang), and South Sumatra, it was expanded by about 500%, 900%, and 5,000%, respectively. In South Sulawesi, the fruit production was only slightly increased, 100% (Morey, 2007).
