ABSTRACT
This research aimed to find the agar wood producing fungal inoculant formulation
that infect Ketimunan tree effectively and resulted in high quality of agar wood. Complete
Block Design was applied in this research with formulation of Fusarium solani and Rhizopus
sp inoculant in liquid and solid form were combined as variables. Those variables were as
follows: A) solid Fusarium solani inoculant, B) solid Rhizopus sp inoculant, C) mixture of
solid Fusarium solani inoculant and solid Rhizopus sp inoculant, D) liquid Fusarium solani
inoculant, E) liquid Rhizopus sp inoculant, F) mixture of liquid Fusarium solani inoculant

and liquid Rhizopus sp inoculant, and G) mixture of solid and liquid of Fusarium solani and
Rhizopus sp inoculants. Each variable was repeated three times. Parameters measured were
level of fragrance, agar wood color, and its resin content. Result showed that all formulations
effect resin content of agar wood significantly. Mixture of liquid Fusarium solani and liquid
Rhizopus sp inoculant showed best quality agar wood with quality characteristics: brownish
black or agar wood with black and brownish-black color, very strong fragrance, and 13.58%
resin content.
Key words: agar wood forming fungi, Gyrinops versteegii
