Abstract

Tahi kotok (Tagetes erecta Linn.) merupakan tanaman perdu yang memiliki banyak manfaat, salah satunya dapat dijadikan sebagai pestisida alami. Kutu putih (Paracoccus marginatus) merupakan hama yang menyerang beberapa jenis komoditas tanaman. Kutu putih termasuk hama polifag, hama polifag merupakan hama yang mempunyai banyak jenis tanaman inang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui: (1) ada perbedaan mortalitas kutu putih akibat variasi pemberian konsentrasi ekstrak kasar bunga tahi kotok. (2) nilai Lethal Concentration (LC50) ekstrak kasar bunga tahi kotok yang efektif terhadap mortalitas kutu putih. Jenis penelitian menggunakan eksperimen sungguhan dengan rancangan penelitian The randomized post-test only control group design, menggunakan lima perlakuan, yaitu 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% dan 20% ekstrak kasar bunga tahi kotok, dengan sebanyak lima replikasi. Hasil penelitian ini adalah (1) Ada perbedaan mortalitas kutu putih akibat variasi pemberian konsentrasi ekstrak kasar bunga tahi kotok dengan nilai signifikansi 0,0001. (2) Nilai LC50 pada ekstrak kasar bunga tahi kotok terhadap mortalitas nimfa instar III kutu putih adalah konsentrasi 7,286%.
Kata Kunci : bunga tahi kotok (Tagetes erecta), kutu putih (Paracoccus marginatus), dan mortalitas.

Marigold (Tagetes erecta Linn.) is a herbaceous plant which has many benefits, one of which can be used as a natural. Mealybug (Paracoccus marginatus) is a pest that attacks several kinds of crops. Mealybugs including polifag pests, pest polifag is a pest that has many types of host plants. This research aims to determine: (1) there are difference in mortality rates due to variation of mealybugs concentration of crude extract of marigold flower. (2) the value of Lethal Concentration (LC50) of crude extract of marigold flower are effective against mealybugs mortality. This type of research using real experiment with the design of the study The randomized post-test only control group design, using five treatments, ie 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% of crude extract of marigold flower, with five replication. The results of this study were (1) There was a difference of mealybugs mortality due to variation of concentration of crude extract of marigold flower with significant value 0.0001. (2) The value of LC50 on crude extract marigolds on mortality of third instar nymph mortality mealybug is a concentration of 7.286%.
