<p>Kumbang  <em>Cyrtotrachelus</em> sp. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) dikenal sebagai kumbang moncong  rebung bambu (<em>bamboo shoot weevil</em>), kumbang moncong bamboo (<em>Bamboo weevil</em>atau <em>bamboo snout beetle</em>), kumbang moncong bambu raksasa(<em>Giant Bamboo Weevil</em>) atau kumbang palma bertungkai depan panjang (<em>Long Armed Palm Weevil</em>).  Kumbang <em>Cyrtotrachelus</em> sp., pertama kali ditemukan merusak dan mematikan tanaman muda atau bibit kelapa yang berumur &gt; 1 tahun, dan kerusakannya mirip dengan kerusakan akibat hama <em>Rhynchophorus</em> spp. pada tanaman muda. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi kumbang yang merusak tanaman kelapa. Survei dilakukan pada lokasi pembibitan kelapa umur 1-3 tahun di Kebun Percobaan Mapanget, Balai Penelitian Tanaman Palma(Balit Palma) di Manado, Sulawesi Utara. Pengamatan lapangan meliputi gejala serangan, populasi larva, pupa dan imago, sedangkan pengamatan laboratorium difokuskan pada ciri morfologi imago. Hasil penelitian  menunjukkan bahwa kumbang yang merusak kelapa di Kebun Percobaan Mapanget, Balit Palma, di Sulawesi Utara adalah kumbang <em>Cyrtotrachelus</em> sp. Kumbang ini pertama kali ditemukan pada tahun 2018 sebagai hama pada tanaman kelapa. Dari 207 tanaman kelapa yang diobsevasi, ternyata 10,63%  terserang atau mati akibat serangan <em>Cytrotrachelus</em> sp., hal ini sangatmerugikan bagi petani atau pengusaha kelapa karena hama ini merusak bagian pucuk sehingga tanaman mati. Berdasarkanhasil penelitian ini maka perlu dipelajari lebih lanjut bioekologi dan teknik pengendalian yang sesuai untuk hama <em>Cyrtotrachelus </em>sp.</p>

Date palm offshoots represent an important source of planting material in many date palm-growing countries around the world. Infestation by the red palm weevil ((RPW) Rhynchophorus ferrugineus), the longhorn beetle ((LHB) Jebusaea hammerschmidti) and the rhinoceros beetle ((OB) Oryctes spp.) hinders commercialization and movement of these offshoots. An effective quarantine protocol, with exposure period of 72 h at 25 °C using ECO2FUME (EF) with phosphine concentration of 1500 ppm has been developed for date palm offshoots against these coleopteran internal tissue borers.

One of the solutions to fulfill  the food sustainability is diversification of local food. One of the local food that potential to be used and processed is bamboo shoots. In South Kalimantan, the potential of bamboo as a producer of bamboo shoot plants with an estimated total area of 2158 hectares with a potential of 6 million stems. To increase the value and health of bamboo shoots can be made with fermentation. Fermentation is done by two methods, enzimatic fermentation and spontaneous fermentation. The results of the highest crude fiber obtained in spontaneous fermentation of bamboo shoots Haur 44.46% while the highest starch content present in fermented bamboo shoots Paring stater of 13.91%. Metal content, everything is still fulfill the quality standard. Flour bamboo shoots can be used as food supplements or raw materials of fiber flour.Keywords: bamboo shoots,  fermentation, fiber flour

Red Palm Weevil (RPW), Rhynchophorus ferrugineus Olivier, is a notorious pest, which infests palm trees and has caused great economic losses worldwide. At present, insecticide applications are still the main way to control this pest. However, pesticide resistance has been detected in the field populations of RPW. Thus, future management strategies based on the novel association biological control need be developed. Recent studies have shown that the intestinal tract of RPW is often colonized by multiple microbial species as mammals and model insects, and gut bacteria have been found to promote the growth, development and immune activity of RPW larvae by modulating nutrient metabolism. Furthermore, two peptidoglycan recognition proteins (PGRPs), PGRP-LB and PGRP-S1, can act as the negative regulators to modulate the intestinal immunity to maintain the homeostasis of gut bacteria in RPW larvae. Here, we summarized the current knowledge on the gut bacterial composition of RPW and their impact on the physiological traits of RPW larvae. In contrast with metazoans, it is much easier to make genetic engineered microbes to produce some active molecules against pests. From this perspective, because of the profound effects of gut bacteria on host phenotypes, it is promising to dissect the molecular mechanisms behind their effect on host physiology and facilitate the development of microbial resource-based management methods for pest control.

AbstractSeveral studies have investigated palm trees’ microbiota infected with red palm weevil (RPW) (Rhynchophorus ferrugineus), the major pest of palm trees. This study compared the microbial communities of infected and uninfected palm trees in the Hail region, Northern Saudi Arabia, determined by high-throughput 16S rRNA gene sequencing by Illumina MiSeq. The results indicated that taxonomic diversity variation was higher for infected tree trunk than the healthy tree trunk. Soil samples from the vicinity of healthy and infected trees did not have a significant variation in bacterial diversity. Myxococcota, Acidobacteriota, and Firmicutes were the dominant phyla in RPW-infected tree trunk, and Pseudomonadaceae was the most prominent family. This study is the first report on the characterization of RPW-infected and healthy palm trees’ microbiome.
