Early blight is one of the most common and destructive tomato disease and it is caused by the fungus Alternaria solani. The aim of this paper was to screen the reaction of ten tomato genotypes (collection of the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops) against natural infection of early blight. Tested genotypes showed significant differences in the disease occurrence on leaves but not on fruits. However, at the biochemical level, total phenolics (TP), tannins (TT), flavonoids (TF) and antioxidant activity in tomato fruits was significantly affected by genotype, disease occurrence and interaction of these two factors. According to obtained results, content of these secondary metabolites could be used as a one of the parameters in the evaluation of tomato resistance to EB.

Aquilaria is one of the plant genus-producing agarwood. Aquilaria leaves have pharmacological effects which the potential to be processed into black tea. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of fermentation duration on physicochemical and organoleptic characteristics of Aquilaria leaves tea. This study employed a Completely Randomized Design with two factors; the plant species (A. crassna, A. malaccensis, and A. subintegra) and fermentation duration (0 minutes, 70 minutes, and 90 minutes). Parameters analyzed including water content, total phenol, and antioxidant activity. Organoleptic tests were performed on the color, taste, and aroma of the brewed tea. The results summarized that A. subintegra had the highest total phenol and antioxidant activity, but the taste of the tea was not favored. A. crassna fermented 70 minutes and A. malaccensis fermented 0 minutes were the most preferred, but both have lower total phenol and antioxidant activity than A. subintegra.

   Pakcoy is a type of mustard plant that is quite popular with the community, it is very suitable to be cultivated considering the need for vegetables is quite large. The community's need for fresh and pesticide-free vegetables is a choice now in line with the community's understanding of a healthy diet. Alternatives to fulfillment are chosen by planting with hydroponic media. Hydroponics is a substitute for soil media that can be used to grow vegetable crops. The presence of hydroponics is expected to be able to overcome the narrowing of agricultural land and reduce the use of pesticides considering that pesticides greatly affect human health and the environment.   This study aims to determine the effect of nutritional doses of AB mix agrifarm and age of seedlings and their interactions on the growth and yield of pakcoy plants, this study is carried out in the experimental garden of the Faculty of Agriculture, Tabanan University which began on 9 December 2018 until 12 January 2019.   The study used a Randomized Block Design (RBD) consisting of two factors. The first factor is the nutritional dose of AB mix agrifarm (N) which consists of three dose levels, namely the dose of 850 ppm, 1050 ppm and 1250 ppm. The second factor is the age of seedlings (U) which consists of two seedling age levels, namely the age of seedlings 1 week and 2 weeks. Each treatment is repeated four times.   The results of the study obtained the interaction of dose agrifarm treatment with seed age showed a very significant effect (p 1 0.01) on all parameters except for the parameters of the number of leaves aged 35 days old which showed no significant effect (p 5 0.05). The economical wet weight of plant-1 and BKO of the highest yield of 1-crop yield is produced in the combination treatment of N3U, which amounted to respectively 244.09 g and 78.10g or increased respectively by 57.78% and 293.85% compared to results the lowest produced by the combination treatment of N1U1 is 154.71g and 19.83g
