Abstract

The genus Tor (Cyprinidae) comprises highly diverse freshwater fishes widely distributed in Southeast Asia, including Indonesia. However, information on Tor species in several regions remains limited. This study aimed to identify Tor species from Telaga Rambut Monte, Blitar, using morphological analysis and molecular approaches based on COI DNA barcoding. Fish were collected through purposive sampling at depths of 1–2 m, and fin tissues were preserved in ethanol for DNA extraction. PCR amplification employed LCO1490 and HCO2198 primers, with sequence analysis conducted using BLAST and the BOLD System. Phylogenetic reconstruction applied Neighbour-Joining and Maximum Likelihood methods under the Kimura 2-Parameter model, supported by p-distance analysis with MEGA, Clustal X, BioEdit, and ABGD. Morphological characterisation confirmed the specimens as Tor tambra. COI gene amplification produced a 477 bp sequence, which showed 92% genetic similarity to the reference T. tambra. The phylogenetic tree revealed a distinct clade with a high bootstrap value (96%), clearly separating T. tambra from other congeners. Integrating morphological and molecular data provides robust evidence confirming the presence of T. tambra in Telaga Rambut Monte. This research represents the first study combining genetic identification, morphological analysis, and phylogenetic reconstruction of T. tambra from this locality. The findings contribute to understanding freshwater fish biodiversity in Indonesia and provide important baseline information on the distribution of local fish resources.

Abstract

The genus Tor comprises freshwater fish belonging to the Cyprinidae family, recognized for their remarkable diversity and broad distribution across Southeast Asia, including Indonesia. Despite this, data on Tor species in certain regions are limited, highlighting the need for additional research to confirm their presence. Therefore, this study aims to examine the genetic diversity and phylogenetic reconstruction of the species observed in Sumber Umbulan Ngenep using the COI gene as a DNA barcode marker. The research was conducting using the Purposive Random Sampling method and fin tissues were preserved in 96% ethanol for DNA analysis. The species found at Sumber Umbulan Ngenep were observed morphologically using a phenetic approach. Fins from each fish sample were collected and subjected to PCR, sequence analysis using the BOLD System, phylogenetic tree reconstruction, ABGD analysis, and QR barcoding. The results of morphological, genetic, and phylogenetic tree reconstruction based on the COI gene indicate that three species have been identified at Sumber Umbulan Ngenep, namely Tor douronensis, Tor tambra, and Barbonymus gonionotus. Based on the phenetic approach, three apomorphies and five automorphies were identified, indicating the relatedness of the observed species with the reference species. The phylogenetic tree topology shows an unambiguous branching pattern for the observed sample cluster with Poecilia reticulata as the outgroup. This study is the first to identify the species present at Sumber Umbulan Ngenep, Malang Regency, East Java, Indonesia. The findings provide new information about the existence of these species and can serve as a basis for future conservation and management strategies.

Abstract

The Sapen Nusantara Conservation Park is agroforestry that has certain vegetation. The vegetation in Sapen Nusantara Protected forest park seems to support the existence of birds as wildlife that need a living habitat. The presence of birds in the Sapen Nusantara Protected Forest Park is very important in supporting agroforestry vegetation. However, until now the diversity of bird species there has not been identified and recorded properly. The forest is one of the buffer forests of Mount Arjuno protection forest, the ecosystem must be protected. This study aims to analyze the diversity of bird species in the agroforest forest area in Sapen Nusantara Conservation forest park, Ledug Village, Pasuruan. The research was conducted in July 2021 using the direct observation method (point count) on ecotourism routes by calculating and recording the trails traversed using GPS, sampling by observing walking along the path/road accompanied by predetermined observation points, identification primarily based totally on MacKinnon et al., (2010) and information on the status of its protection. Data analysis used the Shannon-Wiener diversity index, evenness index, and species richness index. The results of the study identified 18 bird species from 16 families with a total of 169 individuals. Of all the birds found, 18 species are listed in IUCN status, and 4 are listed in the protected status PP No. P.106 of 2018 and 3 species are listed in the CITES category Appendix II. It is known that the Shannon diversity index (H'=2,547) is in the medium diversity category. species evenness index (E=0.9) with a high evenness category and stable community. Then the specific wealth index (R=3.31) with the category of species richness is classified as medium. The presence of birds in the Sapen Nusantara Conservation Park Forest indicates that the ecosystem in the forest is still maintained and this cannot be separated from the role of the community, especially the Ledug Lembaga Masyarakat Desa Hutan (LMDH), which manages and maintains the forest.

Abstract

Tuberculosis is an infectious disease that spreads through the air and is caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. To combat it, synthetic drugs are commonly used, which can have adverse effects, making natural alternatives like avocado mistletoe (Dendrophthoe pentandra) necessary. This study aims to explore potential tuberculosis compounds from D. pentandra. The method used in this research is an exploratory descriptive method. The identification of compound content in the ethanol extract of D. pentandra leaves was performed using GC-MS, along with potential testing as an antituberculosis agent through in silico molecular docking. The research results showed that there were 13 volatile compounds contained in the ethanol extract of D. Pentandra leaves, predominantly consisting of propane, 1-methoxy, with a concentration of 9.39%. D. pentandra has the potential as a ClpP1P2 antituberculosis agent with four promising compounds:2-amino-1-(5-bromo-2-pyridinyl)-4-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-7,7-dimethyl-5-oxo-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydro-3-quinolinecarbonitrile, stigmasterol acetate, β-sitosterol acetate, and γ-sitosterol.

Abstract

Pufferfish belong to the Tetraodontidae family, which consists of 28 genera and 184 species; however, there are limited studies on the species from East Java, especially Pasuruan. This indicates the need for the collection of more accurate morphological and genetic resources as an important step for its conservation. Therefore, this study was conducted to identify pufferfish species found in the Lekok Coastal Waters, Pasuruan District, through morphological characterization and molecular analysis using DNA barcoding of the COI gene. A total of 12 samples were collected from the Lekok Coastal Waters, Pasuruan Regency. Fin samples were stored in 96% absolute ethanol. DNA extraction, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and sequence analysis were performed using bioinformatics tools, the BOLD system, and the Automatic Barcode Gap Discovery (ABGD) web platform. Phenetic taxonomy was further applied using Ntysc to enhance the robustness of genetic analysis. The results showed that there were identified five pufferfish species were identified: Lagocephalus spadiceus, Chelonodontops patoca, Cyclichthys orbicularis, Arothron stellatus, and Arothron reticularis. High haplotype diversity (Hd) of 1 and nucleotide diversity (π) of 0.1 indicate significant genetic variation. The frequency of parsimonious informative sites was 22.6%, with 13 polymorphic sites and an overall ts/tv ratio of 2.2. The phylogenetic tree showed unambiguous branching patterns among species. These findings are supported by morphological and molecular identification results, which indicate the presence of five species of pufferfish along the Lekok Coast, Pasuruan Regency.

Abstract

The identities of two local loaches, Nemacheilus chrysolaimos (Valenciennes, 1846) and N. fasciatus (Valenciennes, 1846) from six rivers, were obtained through a comprehensive examination of their morphology and molecular characteristics in Biltar Regency, East Java, Indonesia. Therefore, this study identified Nemacheilus spp. from Blitar based on morphology and partial sequence of COI. The meristic data obtained for N. chrysolaimos included DII. 7–8 (dorsal fin), AI. 3–5 (anal fin), PI. 9 (pectoral fin), VI. 6–7 (ventral fin), and C. 17 (caudal fin). On the other hand, N. fasciatus exhibited the following meristic data, namely D II 7–8 (dorsal fin), AI. 6 (anal fin), PI. 9–10 (pectoral fin), VI. 6–7 (ventral fin), and C. 17 (caudal fin). A significant difference was observed in the morphometric characteristics of N. fasciatus across various sampling sites, as determined by the Kruskal-Wallis Test. Furthermore, the nucleotide base composition sequences of Nemacheilus spp. consisted of Thiamine (T), Cytosine (C), Adenine (A), and Guanine (G) with a mean of 29.565%, 32.023%, 23.88%, and 16.244%. Maximum Likelihood (ML) and Minimum Evolution (ME) phylogenetic analysis was also conducted using the Kimura 2 Parameter model to establish two major clades on Nemacheilus spp. and one out-group significantly different from the Nemacheilus spp. The results showed that these major clades exhibited a close relationship at 100% bootstrap support and were grouped under the genus Nemacheilus. The study on Nemacheilus spp. from the Blitar locality differentiated COI sequences between N. fasciatus and N. chrysolaimos. Additionally, N. chrysolaimos, as inferred from reference sequences, was identified as the ancestral species to N. chrysolaimos MZB 26540 and MZB 26539. ABGD analyses, employing a prior maximal distance of 0.025, also indicated the separation of these species into distinct partitions. The integration of morphology and genetic data for Nemacheilus spp. should provide valuable insights for future genetic population studies and conservation initiatives.

The reliability using targeted DNA barcoding and phenetic taxonomy to study genetic variation and identify species differences in pufferfish.   Abstract Pufferfish are one of the most common fish species in the ocean particularly in Camplong Beach, Madura. Despite the abundant nature, there isn’t much information on this species in East Java, showing the need for identification. Therefore, this study sought to identify pufferfish species in Sampang Regency through morphological and molecular characterization utilizing DNA barcoding of the COI gene. Fins were kept in 96% absolute ethanol, and DNA extraction, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and sequence analysis were performed using bioinformatics tools, including the BOLD system and the web-based Automatic Barcode Gap Discovery (ABGD) tool. To strengthen genetic study, phenetic taxonomy was again applied using Ntysc. Morphological identification revealed five distinct species of pufferfish, namely Chelonodontops patoca, Lagocephalus spadiceus, Arothron reticularis, Otracion rhinorhynchos, and Cyclichthys orbicularis. The high haplotype diversity (Hd) of 0.9 and nucleotide diversity (π) of 0.2 indicated substantial genetic variation. There were 11 polymorphic sites, and the overall ts/tv ratio was 2.2. The frequency of parsimonious informative sites was 21.6%. The phylogenetic tree displayed distinct branching patterns among species. Morphological and molecular identification data supported these results, demonstrating that five distinct pufferfish species occur at Camplong Beach in the Sampang District of Madura.
