Abstract

Endophytic bacteria are microorganisms that thrive in plant tissue without causing any negative effects to the host plants. The purpose of this study was to apply endophytic bacteria that have the potential to produce IAA hormones as biological agents in rice seeds. This research was conducted by testing IAA hormone using a spectrophotometer, testing HCN production using filter paper, biochemically identification of the isolate, and applicating endophytic bacteria into rice seeds. Endophytic bacteria have different abilities in producing IAA hormone. Based on the results of the study, the highest IAA concentration (57 ppm) was obtained from KSB1 (Potassium Solubilizing Bacteria) isolates and followed by KSB3 isolate with 56 ppm. All the endophytic bacteria isolates were unable to produce HCN. Results of the study showed that KSB1 and KSB3 isolate were able to influence the growth of root length by 5.62 cm and 6.70 respectively as well as the canopy height by 8.56 cm and 8.30 cm respectively. Based on observations of colony morphology, cell morphology and biochemical tests, KSB1 was presumably belong to the genus Staphylococcus. In this study, new information about endophytic bacteria that can increase the growth of Ciherang variety rice can be obtained. This study provides information that the application of environmentally friendly bacteria is important to preserve the environment and agriculture sustainability in Indonesia without reducing the productivity of rice.

Abstract

Cassava is the third most important calorie source in tropical area after rice and corn. The microorganism associated with cassava roots may be potent and useful for application to promote plant growth. Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria  is a group of benefical bacteria that live in rhizosphere. The aim of this study was to isolate and to identify the potential Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) from cassava rhizosphere soil. The study consisted of isolation and identification of bacteria based on morphological and biochemical characters, hypersensitive reaction test, the ability to solubilize potassium and phosphate, and the ability to inhibit the growth of pathogen Sclerotium rolfsii. A total of nine bacteria isolates were succesfully isolated from Cassava rhizosphere soil. Those isolates suspected as Micrococcus sp.1, Micrococcus sp.2, Micrococcus sp.3, Micrococcus sp.4, Micrococcus sp.5, Micrococcus sp.6, Neisseria sp.1, Neisseria sp.2 and Bacillus sp. All nine isolates did not show hypersensitivity reactions. Only Neisseria sp.1 and Neisseria sp. 2 were able to solubilize potassium and phosphate. All isolates were able to inhibit the growth of S. rolfsii. The highest inhibition was done by Micrococcus sp.4 (51.46 %). The physical and chemical properties of cassava rhizosphere soil affected the type of bacteria found in this study. The result confirmed that the potential isolates obtained from cassava rhizosphere soil can be plant growth promoters. The present study suggested that PGPR isolates might have potential in future field applications as plant growth promoters or biocontrol agents.

Abstract

The efficiency of expression of recombinant proteins in host cells depends on achieving proper protein folding, solubility, and biological activity. Critical environmental factors, including temperature, pH, nutrient availability, and inducer concentration, significantly influence protein yield, stability, and functionality. Optimizing these conditions is essential to minimize protein misfolding and aggregation, which can adversely affect expression efficiency and reduce bioactivity. This study aims to measure the effect of temperature on the growth of Escherichia coli BL21 harboring the recombinant JSU protein, derived from the ENV-SU gene of the Jembrana virus. A controlled laboratory experiment was conducted in which bacterial cultures were incubated at 25°C and 37°C under identical conditions, except for temperature. The results indicate a statistically significant difference in bacterial growth between the two temperature conditions (p = 0.08), suggesting that E. coli BL21 exhibits enhanced growth at 37°C compared to 25°C. The mean bacterial growth rate at 37°C was 1.756, whereas at 25°C, the average growth was 1.425, demonstrating that higher temperatures facilitate bacterial proliferation. However, due to the relatively small sample size, further validation with a larger dataset is required to confirm these findings. These findings highlight the critical role of temperature optimization in enhancing bacterial growth and improving recombinant protein production efficiency, emphasizing the need for further investigation with a larger dataset to validate the results. Keywords: recombinant protein; temperature; IPTG; Escherichia coli BL21; JSU construct.

Abstract

Endophytic bacteria are bacteria that live in healthy plant tissues without causing damage. Several studies have reported that endophytic bacteria can produce active compounds similar to those secreted by their host and which potentially have medicinal value. Butterfly pea (Clitoria ternatea L.) was noted to be able to produce antioxidants and have toxicity potential from its compounds. Therefore, endophytic bacteria from butterfly pea have great potential to have antioxidant activity along with evaluating the toxicity level of the selected bacteria. This study aimed to determine the number of isolates, to characterize, and test the toxicity and antioxidant activities of endophytic bacteria from butterfly pea. Toxicity level was tested using the Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT) method while levels of antioxidants were tested using the DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) method. A total of fifteen endophytic bacteria were obtained and successfully purified. Based on the morphological observations, Gram staining, and biochemical test results, isolate EBT13 was determined to belong to the genus Bacillus. Isolate EBT13 was categorized as highly toxic, with the highest toxicity value with other bacterial isolates with an LC50 of 84 ppm and antioxidant activity with an IC50 value of 44.32 ppm. Based on the phylogenetic tree of 16S rRNA gene analysis, EBT13 belongs to the genus Bacillus, it forms a sister group with Bacillus pumilus with a bootstrap value of 100%. This study advances our knowledge of plant-microbe interactions by identifying a highly toxic, antioxidant-producing strain of bacteria of butterfly pea. The results have significance for the development of cytotoxic chemicals and natural antioxidants, which could advance biotechnological research and boost therapeutic purpose.

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the secondary metabolite compounds and evaluate the antimicrobial activity of ethanol extract of jamblang stem bark (Syzygium cumini). The method used in this research is experimental method. The extraction was carried out using the maceration method with 96% ethanol as the solvent. Secondary metabolite compounds of the extract samples were analyzed using a Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). Antimicrobial activity of the extract against Cutibacterium acnes, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans using disc diffusion method tested on MHA (Mueller Hinton Agar) media with extract concentrations of 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100%.  Each experiment was repeated three times to ensure validity. The results revealed that the extract have dominant compounds such as 7-Tetradecenal (Z), Octadecanoic acid, and n-Hexadecanoic acid. The antimicrobial test showed that the highest inhibition zones were 7.45 mm for C. acnes, 8.04 mm for S. aureus, and 4.60 mm for C. albicans at 100% extract concentration. The inhibition zones increased with higher extract concentrations, indicating a dose-dependent relationship. Compared to the positive control results (20.70 mm; 22.29 mm; and 18.62 mm) the extract showed moderate antimicrobial activity. These findings suggest that jamblang stem bark extract has potential as a natural antimicrobial agent.
