Abstract

Cultivated oil palm is commonly found in several ecosystems with different topographies, including riparian areas. This ecosystem is expected to affect the morphology and physiology of oil palms. In addition, oil palm habitats in riparian or flooded ecosystems will experience anaerobic respiration. Indonesia has the potential to access quality palm oil that can be used for cultivation. This study aimed to determine which oil palm accessions could adapt physiologically to the duration of waterlogging. The accession of oil palm seedlings from Jambi tested were Merangin, Tebo, Muara Jambi, Tanjung Jabung, and Simalungun. The research design was to treat waterlogging in a greenhouse and then analyze the plant growth and physiology. Waterlogging was given for two, four, and six weeks. The results showed that the accession of oil palm seedlings and the duration of waterlogging affected photosynthesis rate, transpiration rate, and stomatal conductance. Growth parameters, i.e., fresh weight, dry weight, and root/shoot ratio, were significantly different in accession and waterlogging duration. In conclusion, accessions from Tebo and Merangin can adapt to waterlogging. Keywords: Merangin accession, photosynthesis rate, stomatal conductance, Tebo accession

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the utilization and cultivation of myrmecophytes as medicine by the community in Bengkulu Province. The sampling of this research was conducted through interviews with 5 key informants and 50 respondents using purposive sampling method and direct observation in the field, literature study and documentation. The results of the interviews were then analyzed descriptively to determine the utilization and cultivation of myrmecophytes as medicine by the community in Bengkulu Province. The results showed that there are two species of myrmecophytes namely Hydnophytum formicarum and Myrmecodia tuberosa in Bengkulu Province. These myrmecophytes is utilized by the people of Serawai, Rejang, and Lembak tribes for various types of diseases such as headaches, diabetes, tumors, aches, joint pain, cancer, rheumatism, high blood pressure, jaundice, vaginal discharge, back pain, and hepatitis. The myrmecophytes is also commercialized by the community by chopping and drying. The community that uses myrmecophytes also cultivates the plant using traditional methods such as placing it in coconut fiber, giving it soil media, and hanging it on trees in the residents yards. Information about the ethnobotanical study of myrmecophytes is expected to be known by the community in Bengkulu Province at large so that this plant can be recognized as a medicinal plant and an alternative to traditional medicine.
