Abstract

The mitotic index of the roots of pigeon pea can be the basis for determining the growth of pigeon pea. The purpose of this research was to determine the time of root cell division, to observe the mitotic phases, and to determine the mitotic index of pigeon pea root cells. The preparation of the pigeon pea was carried out for 4 days to grow the roots. The roots were cut off at 08.00, 08.15, and 08.30 WIT (Eastern Indonesian Time). The roots were cut 0.5-1cm. Carnoy’s solution was used as the fixative solution using the Squash technique. The prepared roots were then observed using an Olympus cx-22 microscope and an OptiLab camera with a magnification of 100x40. The data were descriptively analyzed to describe the images of mitotic phases and the mitotic index presentation in the root cells of pigeon pea. The results of this research showed that the cell division of the pigeon pea roots began at 08.00 WIT, which was marked by the presence of a lot of prophase. The next phases that appeared were prometaphase, metaphase, and anaphase which occurred from 08.15 to 08.30 with different numbers. The highest mitotic index occurred at 08.15, when most of the root cells underwent metaphase. This study succeeded in revealing that the optimum time for pigeon pea root cell division is 08.15 WIT. In the future, this research can help pigeon pea farmers in Southwest of Maluku to carry out vegetative reproduction which is closely related to this mitotic study.

Abstract

Gayam (Inocarpus fagifer) is one of the members of the angiosperm flora in Ambon City, Indonesia, that grows and develops at various altitudes. This research aimed to analyze the leaf and stomata morphometrics of these plants in the Aer Louw and Ema Village areas. Leaf samples were taken from the upper, middle, and lower strata and considered as replicates. The morphometric characteristics were measured manually using millimeter block paper and the formula for calculating leaf ratio. Furthermore, the stomata were stained using the direct incision method and safranin. The incision results were analyzed using an Olympus CX23 microscope at 400x magnification. The measurement and observation were analyzed descriptively and correlatively. The results showed that the average leaf width and length, also the midrib length were greater in Aer Louw Village than in Ema Village; while the leaf tip and stalk length were greater in Ema Village than in Aer Louw Village. The characteristics of stomata length and width in Ema Village were greater than in Aer Louw Village; otherwise, the number, index, and density of stomata in Aer Louw Village were greater than in Ema Village. Meanwhile, the correlational analysis showed that the environment influenced the variations of leaves and stomata. Therefore, the variations of leaves and stomata in the areas could predict plant adaptations to different environments.

Abstract

Negeri Riring, Taniwel District, West Seram Regency, Maluku Province, has many agricultural opportunities for red salak. Salak is unique with thick, dark yellow flesh with a red tinge, which is why it is called red snake fruit. Currently, the red salak plant is only used for its fruit flesh; the skin and other parts of the plant are immediately removed and disposed of in the environment. Red salak fruit skin, which has high antioxidant and polyphenol content, can be utilized and processed into new products, such as herbal tea. Drying is an important stage in the process of making herbal tea. Making herbal tea from red salak fruit skin is carried out in the Biology Laboratory. The aim of this research is to determine how long drying impacts water and ash content. The research method used was an experiment using a simple Completely Randomized Design (CRD), namely at the same temperature, namely 60°C and with a long drying treatment. The Ambon Industrial Standardization and Services Center tests water and ash content. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to analyze research data at a confidence level of 5%. The results showed that the drying time had a significant impact on the water content, but did not have a significant impact on the ash content of the red salak fruit rind herbal tea.
