Abstract

Natuna Islands cluster consisting of large and small islands which a very diverse ecosystems are occurred, including mangrove, seagrass and coral reefs. These waters can be a conducive habitat for various marine organisms, including foraminifera that can live in all types of waters. Collected foraminifera from a site reflect the relationships between species that are affected by ecological factors and the ability of these organisms adapt to their environment. These organisms are also used in the petroleum and mining line, and studied in the micropaleontology and palaeoecology. Therefore, the data on foraminifera in a marine community, including the waters of Natuna Islands are very important to support the fields. Sampling of this study was conducted in April 2011 in the waters off the coast until the ocean waters covering Bunguran, Subi Besar and Laut Islands. The benthic foraminifera that was collected as abundant in these three waters is symbiont bearing foraminifera, namely Amphistegina lessonii.Keywords: Assemblage, foraminifera, benthic and Natuna

Abstract

This experiment was conducted to examine the effect of UV irradiation on pathogenity of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) in black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon Fab.).  A hundred ml of WSSV virus suspension (200 μg/ml) were placed at 30 cm under UV light 10 Watt.  Radiation on WSSV virus was performed for 15, 30, 45, and 60 minutes.  Black tiger sjrimp in density of 260 tails/L were immersed in 1000 ml of irradiated virus suspension (20 μg/ml) to test their pathogenities.  The results of study showed that duration of UV irradiation on WSSV virus was reverse correlated to their pathogenities.  In constrast, survival of black tiger shrimp was linear correlated to duration of UV inactivation of virus.  Higher survival rate of shrimp (65.52%) after challenge test was obtained by irradiation of virus for 60 min.
