Abstract

SummaryAttempts to improve productivity of cacaoplantations lead us to study the molecularmechanism of flowering. In the model speciesArabidopsis thaliana as well as some otherspecies, LEAFY is a central regulatory gene forthe transition of shoot apical meristems toflowering meristems. Different from that ofArabidopsis, cacao inflorescence is acauliflorous type, by which flowers can developrepeatedly from the same flower cushion on thetrunk. In this research, a LEAFY homolog wasisolated from active flower cushion with RT-PCRusing a pair of DNA primer specifically designedto isolate its complete cds. Gel electrophoresisexamination indicated the presence of a 1.2 kbamplicon. Purified from the gel, this DNAfragment was cloned into competent cells ofE. coli XL1 Blue using pGEM-T Easy cloningvector at an orientation according to the T7promoter of the plasmid. Sequence analysis usingBLASTX, showed that the amplicon was LEAFY(LFY) homolog. Alignment analysis using ClustalW indicated that the cTcLFY highly homologousto those from other perennial crops such ascitrus, grape, apple and poplar. The highesthomology (conserved region) was found in the Cterminal of the encoded proteins.RingkasanUsaha untuk meningkatkan produktivitasperkebunan kakao telah mendorong penelitianmolekuler tentang mekanisme pembungaankakao.

Abstract

Summary Transformation of a P5CS gene construct into plant cells coupled with regeneration for transgenic plantlets should develop sugarcane tolerant to drought stress. The purpose of the research is to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of Agrobacterium transferring the gene into sugarcane callus. In this method, recombinant plasmid of pBI-P5CS could be transferred into host cells of Agrobacterium LBA4404 through triparental mating with pRK2013 helper. The parameters were tested to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of Agrobacterium  transferring the gene into sugarcane callus were the addition of antioxidant and 1.0% glucose, callus age (2, 3, and   4 weeks), medium pH (4.5; 5.0; and 5.6), treated with air dry for 30 minutes, wetting agent of silwet with and without short vacuum treatment, and acetosyringone consentration (100, 500, and 1000 mg/L). Identification of the transgene in sugarcane  was conducted by PCR using spesific primers, and the expression was tested by measuring  of the proline content. The result showed that addition of acetosyringone 100 ppm or more, P5CS transfer into the sugarcane explants by Agrobacterium was effective. The genetic transformation could be optimized by selecting proper age of calli, which was four weeks after sub-culture. The effectiveness could be maintained and slightly improved by inoculation at pH  4.5, addition 1.0% glucose, wetting agent of silwet with short vacuum treatment, or treated with air drying for 30 minutes. In vitro cultures for transgenic regeneration required addition of antioxidant to prevent browning in the culture media. The amplified DNA fragment demonstrated that the gene was transferred into sugarcane plantlets, and P5CS gene expression showed  increasing  proline content in transgenic sugarcane plantlets.Ringkasan Transformasi transgen P5CS yang diikuti dengan regenerasi tanaman transgeniknya diper-kirakan mampu menghasilkan tanaman tebu transgenik yang toleran terhadap cekaman kekeringan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk me-ningkatkan efektivitas dan efisiensi Agro-bacterium mentransfer gen P5CS ke dalam kalus tebu. Dalam metode ini, plasmid rekombinan pBI-P5CS berhasil dengan baik ditransformasi-kan ke dalam sel. Agrobacterium   LBA4404   dengan  pendekatan triparental mating meng-gunakan helper pRK2013. Parameter yang diuji untuk meningkatkan kondisi efektif dan efisien dalam transfer gen P5CSke dalam kalus tebu adalah penambahan antioksidan dan glukosa 1,0%, umur kalus (2, 3, dan 4 minggu), pH medium (4,5; 5,0; dan 5,6), pengeringan kalus   30 menit, bahan pembasah silwet tanpa dan dengan pemakuman, dan konsentrasi aseto-siringon (100, 500, dan 1000 mg/L). Pengujian keberadaan transgen P5CS dilakukan dengan PCR menggunakan primer spesifik, sedangkan ekspresinya diuji dengan mengukur kandungan prolin dari tanaman tebu. Hasil percobaan menunjukkan bahwa dengan penambahan asetosiringon 100 ppm atau lebih, penggunaan Agrobacterium terbukti efektif dan efisien dalam transfer konstruk transgen P5CS ke dalam eksplan kalus tebu. Transformasi dapat dioptimalkan dengan memilih eksplan kalus tebu yang baik, yaitu yang umur subkulturnya empat minggu. Efektivitasnya juga dapat dijaga atau sedikit ditingkatkan dengan inokulasi pH 4,5, penambahan glukosa 1,0%, bahan pembasah silwet dengan pemakuman, ataupun pemberian perlakuan pengeringan udara selama 30 menit. Kultur kalus transgenik memerlukan penambahan antioksidan untuk mencegah terjadinya pen-cokelatan. Adanya fragmen DNA hasil amplifikasi dengan primer spesifik P5CS menunjukkan pada tanaman tebu telah terdapat gen P5CS.  Demikian pula dengan ekspresi gen P5CS, menunjukkan adanya peningkatan kandungan prolin pada tanaman tebu transgenik.

Abstract

AbstractA right combination of cytokinin is able to support the process of callus differentiation to somatic embryo formation in plant somatic embryogenesis. Liquid culture application could increase the efficiency of in vitro culture process on plants. This research aimed to determine the best concentration of TDZ combined with kinetin for callus differentiation to  somatic embryo of sago palm on three culture methods. Plant material used was embryogenic callus derived from tips meristem culture from sucker of Alitir sago palm. Callus was cultured on modified MS media added with: 0.0, 0.1, 0.5 and 1.0 mg/L TDZ combined with 0.5 mg/L kinetin for 12 weeks with subcultures every 6 weeks. Three culture methods used were suspension, temporary immersion system (TIS), and solid media. There were 12 treatments with 4 replicates. The results showed that the highest number of somatic embryos was achieved on TIS culture with 1.0 mg/L TDZ and 0.5 mg/L kinetin in 6 weeks (167.3 embryos/flask) and 12 weeks (389.2 embryos/flask) with its fresh weight of 18.4 g and 29.1 g, respectively. The highset survival rate in final culture (12 weeks) was achieved on TIS culture with 1.0 mg/L TDZ and 0.5 mg/L kinetin (100%). The shortest time for somatic embryos expression was achieved on TIS culture with 1.0 mg/L TDZ and 0.5 mg/L kinetin in two weeks after culture. Histological analysis of early-stage somatic embryos showed the presence of dense and compact cellular arrangements which formed growth spot axis for shoot or SAM (shoot apical meristem) and root or RAM (root apical meristem) that connected each other. [Key words: culture method, embryogenic callus, Metroxylon sagu Rottb., kinetin, sago palm, TDZ]   AbstrakAplikasi kombinasi sitokinin yang tepat dapat mendorong proses diferensiasi kalus membentuk embrio somatik pada proses embriogenesis somatik tanaman. Penggunaan metode kultur cair dapat meningkatkan efisiensi proses kultur in vitro tanaman. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan konsentrasi TDZ terbaik dikombinasikan dengan kinetin dalam proses diferensiasi kalus membentuk embrio somatik tanaman sagu pada tiga metode kultur. Bahan tanam penelitian  berupa kalus embriogenik tanaman sagu asal kultur meristem pucuk dari anakan sagu jenis Alitir.

Abstract

AbstractGanor organic fungicide potentially reduces Ganoderma, a pathogenic fungus causing basal stem rot disease. Application of Ganor on oil palm trees in the plantation attacked Ganoderma, inhibits the growth of Ganoderma fruiting bodies, improves rooting and stimulates the opening of the spear leaf. This study aims to identify molecularly the presence of Ganoderma in oil palm trees that have been attacked by Ganoderma routinely treated with Ganor for three months. Molecular analysis was performed by PCR using Ganoderma specific primers. The analysis results of sample from trunks and roots of  oil palm, indicating that the Ganoderma infected oil palm which has been treated with Ganor, were relatively free (96.4%) of Ganoderma. Of the 28 samples examined of treated plants, 27 samples did not indicate the presence of Ganoderma specific DNA band. On the other hand, the untreated oil palm trees infected by Ganoderma were still detected by the appearence of  DNA bands specific to Ganoderma. The results of molecular analysis indicated that Ganor treatments can effectively reduce the attack rate of Ganoderma in oil palm trees in the plantation infected by Ganoderma. However, the use of the molecular technique for early detection needs to be further tested to evaluate its consistency prior to introduction to the commercial growers. The reproducibility can be confirmed by repeating the experiment using more samples. Ganor effectiveness in curing oil palm trees infected by Ganoderma, maybe indicated by the ability of the reproductive organs to develop, particularly female flowers. The sex ratio of Ganor treated oil palms was clearly higher than that of control palms in 10 to 12 weeks after the treatment.[Keywords: organic fungicides, stem rot, molecular analysis, Elais guinensis Jack.] AbstrakFungisida organik Ganor berpotensi mengurangi serangan Ganoderma, cendawan patogenik penyebab penyakit busuk pangkal batang. Aplikasi Ganor pada tanaman kelapa sawit di kebun yang terserang Ganoderma, menghambat pertumbuhan tubuh buah Ganoderma, memper-baiki perakaran dan merangsang pembukaan daun tombak. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi secara molekuler adanya Ganoderma pada tanaman kelapa sawit terserang Ganoderma yang telah mendapat perlakuan Ganor secara rutin selama tiga bulan. Analisis molekuler dilakukan dengan teknik PCR menggunakan primer DNA spesifik Ganoderma. Hasil analisis sampel batang dan akar tanaman kelapa sawit, menunjukkan bahwa tanaman Perlakuan, yaitu kelapa sawit terserang Ganoderma yang telah mendapat perlakuan Ganor, 96,4% bebas Ganoderma. Dari 28 sampel tanaman Perlakuan yang diperiksa, 27 sampel tidak menunjukkan adanya pita DNA spesfik Ganoderma. Sementara itu pada tanaman Kontrol, yaitu tanaman kelapa sawit terserang Ganoderma dan tidak mendapat perlakuan Ganor, 100% masih terdeteksi adanya Ganoderma. Dari 7 sampel tanaman kontrol yang diperiksa semuanya menunjukkan adanya pita DNA spesifik Ganoderma. Hasil analisis molekuler ini mengindikasikan bahwa perlakuan Ganor efektif mengurangi tingkat serangan Ganoderma pada tanaman kelapa sawit di kebun yang terinfeksi Ganoderma. Namun demikian, untuk lebih meyakinkan praktisi perkebunan, penggunakan teknik molekuler ini masih perlu diuji lebih lanjut terkait konsistensinya. Reprodusibilitas dapat dikonfirmasi dengan mengulangi percobaan menggunakan lebih banyak sampel. Efektivitas Ganor dalam menyehatkan tanaman kelapa sawit terserang Ganoderma ini, terindikasi juga dari perkembangan organ reproduktifnya. Sex ratio meningkat dalam waktu 10 hingga 12 minggu setelah perlakuan.[Kata Kunci:  fungisida organik, busuk pangkal  batang, analisis molekuler, Elais guinensis Jack. ]

Abstract

Ganoderma is a major pathogen in oil palm crops. Some efforts related to control the growth of Ganoderma have been conducted but still have not found an effective method. This study aims to develop an organic fungicide that has been tested in vitro, which effective in controlling the growth of Ganoderma. The optimization carried out includes the determination of the dose and time interval for application in 13-year-old mature oil palm. This organic fungicide application was the continuation of application during the previous year especially for the two best treatment which is application organic fungicide every week (1w) and every two weeks (2w). In this study, the treatments tested were three levels dose of organic fungicide (0, 1x and 2x) and two types of frequency application, i.e. every week (1w) and every other week (2w). The results showed that the best application of organic fungicides was every week application with twice doses (1w.2x), based on the parameters of the inhibition of Ganoderma’s fruiting body formation, primary and secondary root formation, the opening of spear leaves, and harvesting parameters. The application of organic fungicide able to recover the oil palm infected Ganoderma sp., with increasing the fresh fruit bunch and its weight around 70% and 78%, respectively.

Abstract

Identifying the newly isolated species is crucial to establishing a reliable algal database with successful commercial applications for different biotechnological applications. Morphological identification does not give sufficient description, especially for tiny unicellular microalgae. The rbcL gene encodes the large unit of ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase /oxygenase (Rubisco) has been widely known for barcoding in plants and developed for microalgae molecular identification. In this study, we examined the local strains of green microalgae from Indonesia using the rbcL partial gene sequence to identify the strains. Green microalgae isolates originated from Yogyakarta, Serayu, Gondol, Ancol, Cilegon, and Teluk Jakarta were cultured in f/2 media and harvested for DNA extraction. The DNA extracted was proceeded to PCR using 1AB_rbcL primer pair to amplify the sequences of rbcL gene with target band located at 582 bp, followed by the sequencing of the PCR product was conducted. Molecular identification of local green microalgae isolates was successfully carried out using primers 1AB_rbcL with a genetic similarity of 99% toward identified species in the NCBI database. Among six isolates, TJ, G, S, C, and A isolates were identified as C. pyrenoidosa. Only CP isolate from Yogyakarta identified as C. sorokiniana. Nannochloropsis gaditana rbcL sequence was selected as an outgroup. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that the five isolates of Chlorella belong to one clade and clearly distinguished from C. sorokiniana isolate from Yogyakarta.
