ABSTRACT Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum is one of the most destructive diseases on ginger. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential use of five different medicinal plants extracts (Acalypha indica, Andrographis paniculata, Centella asiatica, Curcuma xanthorrhiza, and Spinosa oleracea) as sources of plant resistance inducer compounds (elicitor) against bacterial wilt disease on ginger. Salicylic acid was used as a standard synthetical compound, as well as, water as a control treatment. The study was conducted at the Indonesian Spice and Medicinal Crops Research Institute, Bogor in 2010-2011. Research was conducted in Completely Randomized Design that consisted of 7 treatments, 3 replicates, and 10 plants/ replicate. Ginger seeds were planted in a mixture of soil and manure in polybags. One-month old ginger plants were sprayed or drenched with each of the medicinal plant extract before and after R. solanacearum inoculation. This experiment indicated that the medicinal plant extracts tested were effective in reducing wilt disease incidence on ginger. Their effectiveness varied depended on the plant species and the application method used. Among those five medicinal plant extracts tested, A. indica, A. paniculata, and C. xanthorrhiza were the most stable and effective.  Their  effectiveness  were  comparable  with  the  standard compound of salicylic acid. This finding indicated that A. indica, A. paniculata, and C. xanthorrhiza were potentially used as sources of botanical elicitor compounds. The use of those medicinal plant extracts as sources of botanical elicitor, hopefully could increase ginger resistance and rhizome production, as well as reduce the use of synthetic pesticides. Keywords:  Medicinal  plant  extracts,  elicitor  compounds,  induced resistance, ginger, wilt disease ABSTRAK Layu  bakteri  yang  disebabkan  oleh  Ralstonia  solanacearum merupakan salah satu penyakit yang merusak tanaman jahe. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi potensi lima jenis ekstrak tanaman obat (akar kucing, sambiloto, pegagan, temulawak, dan bayam duri) sebagai sumber senyawa penginduksi ketahanan (elisitor) tanaman jahe terhadap penyakit layu. Pada penelitian ini digunakan asam salisilat sebagai senyawa sintetik standard dan air sebagai perlakuan kontrol. Penelitian dilaksanakan di Balai Penelitian Tanaman Rempah dan Obat, Bogor pada tahun  2010-2011.  Percobaan  dilaksanakan  dengan  menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap yang terdiri atas 7 perlakuan, 3 ulangan, dan 10 tanaman/ ulangan. Rimpang jahe ditanam pada media campuran tanah dan pupuk kandang di dalam polibeg. Jahe umur satu bulan disemprot atau disiram dengan ekstrak tanaman obat sebelum dan setelah diinokulasi R. solanacearum. Hasil penelitian mengindikasikan bahwa ekstrak tanaman obat yang diuji efektif dapat mengurangi kejadian penyakit layu pada tanaman jahe. Efektivitas dari tanaman tersebut bervariasi tergantung dari spesies tanaman dan cara aplikasinya. Diantara kelima tanaman obat yang diuji, akar kucing, sambiloto, dan temulawak paling stabil dan efektif dalam mengurangi terjadinya penyakit layu. Efektivitas dari ketiga tanaman obat tersebut sama dengan senyawa asam salisilat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa akar kucing, sambiloto, dan temulawak berpotensi untuk digunakan sebagai sumber senyawa elisitor botanis. Penggunaan  ekstrak tanaman  obat  sebagai  sumber  elisitor  botanis diharapkan dapat meningkatkan ketahanan tanaman dan produksi jahe serta mengurangi penggunaan pestisida sintetik. Kata kunci: Ekstrak tanaman, senyawa elisitor, induksi ketahanan, jahe, penyakit layu.
