Abstract
Pineapple Mealybug Wilt-associated Virus (PMWaV) is one of the main diseases that affect pineapples all over the world, including Sipahutar, North Tapanuli, Indonesia. Currently, there are no studies or information on PMWaV disease as well as the species of mealybugs found in sipahutar pineapples. Therefore, this study aims to identify the mealybugs causing PMWaV in sipahutar pineapple. Data were obtained from 3 (three) villages, namely Siabal-abal II, Onan Runggu, and Sabunganni Huta V, to assess the disease incidence and collect mealybugs. The results showed that the disease incidence of PMWaV in the 3 villages were between 15.6 - 21.6%. The highest disease incidence was found in Siabal-abal II (21.6%), followed by Onan Runggu (21.3%), and SabunganniHuta V (15.6%). The mealybugs found on pineapple sipahutar with PMWaV symptoms in the 3 surveyed villages were identified as Dysmicoccus brevipes.
