Abstract

There are only a few reports from tropical countries, and none from Indonesia, on yeasts associated with the Asiatic honeybee, Apis cerana. Here we report on yeasts associated with A. cerana foraging on flowers of Jatropha integerrima in the campus of the Universitas Indonesia, Depok, Indonesia. Yeasts were isolated from guts of 30 individual pollen-collecting bees (PCB) and nectar-collecting bees (NCB), and identified by their internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of their rDNA sequences. Based on ITS regions sequence data, 14 representative yeast isolates obtained from A. cerana were found to be closely related to Aureobasidium pullulans, Dothioraceae sp., Candida cf. apicola, C. cf. azyma, C. cellae, Metschnikowia sp., Kodamaea ohmeri and Yarrowia lipolytica. Undescribed yeast of the genus of Metschnikowia was also discovered in this study. At present, we assume there is association between C. cf. apicola and species closely related to C. cellae with A. cerana. Yeasts species associated with PCB differ from those found in NCB, indicating that PCB and NCB possess different and specific yeasts communities. Some yeasts species isolated from A. cerana show a low degree of similarity to their closest related species. Our study sheds light on the detection of several new taxa of yeasts associated with A. cerana.

Abstract

Selected bacterial isolates from a Litopenaeus vannamei shrimp culture system and gut environment were assessed using 16S rRNA gene sequencing method to identify their identity and to construct their phylogenetic relationship. In a preliminary study, a total of 19 isolates were selected as probiotics. These isolates were prepared using freeze and heat-shock method to obtain the DNA template. PCR amplification of 16S ribosomal RNA gene of isolates was carried out using bacterial universal primers 9F and 1510R and was sequenced using an automated DNA sequencer. These gene sequences were compared with other gene sequences in the GenBank database (NCBI) using a BLAST search to find closely related sequences. Alignment of these sequences with sequences available from GenBank database was carried out to construct a phylogenetic tree for these bacteria. Most of the isolates obtained, i.e. 17 out of the 19 isolates, belonged to different species of Bacillus, sharing 95 to 99% 16S ribosomal RNA identity with the respective type-strain, whereas the remaining 2 isolates belonged to Micrococcus sp. and Micrococcus luteus with 97 to 99% 16S rRNA homology, consecutively.

Abstract

In the course of ecological and taxonomical study of yeasts in Indonesia, a total of 2147 yeast isolates from 315 samples in the year 2003, 2005, 2006, and 2008 had been obtained from eight locations e.g. Liwa (Sumatera), Cibinong (Java), Cibodas (Java), Kutai (Kalimantan), Enrekang (Sulawesi), Pucak (Sulawesi), Gili and Kuta (Lombok), and Kupang (Timor). Leaves, flowers, litters, soils, epiphytic soils, insects and insect's nests were collected for yeasts isolation. Our molecular identification based on D1/D2 region of nuclear large-subunit rDNA and the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions sequence data on 525 representative isolates revealed that 306 isolates belong to 48 described species (18 genera) and 209 strains belong to 19 undescribed species (19 genera), and 10 isolates were discarded because of contamination. Based on their substrates, litter had the highest yeasts genera (19) followed by soils (18), flowers (10), leaves (6), epiphytic soils (4), and insects and insect's nests (4). Genera found on soils were also common on litters. Yeasts genera found on flowers and epiphytic soils were common on leaves and litters. The genera Aureobasidium, Cryptococcus, Pseudozyma, Rhodotorula and Sporidiobolus were found in all substrates. Based on their locations, Kutai had the highest number of genera (15) followed by Cibodas (10), Cibinong (10), Enrekang (10), Kupang (10), Pucak (9), Liwa (7), and Lombok (7). The genus Cryptococcus was found in all locations. Our study shed a light to detection of many new taxa of yeasts, 41% of yeasts found in this study represented novel taxa.

Abstract

Mangrove fungi are known as sources of biological active compounds. The study and the report of secondary metabolites of mangrove fungi as insecticides is very limited in Indonesia. This study assess the insecticidal activities of ethyl acetate extract of Indonesian mangrove fungus Emericella nidulans BPPTCC 6038 against Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae) neonate larvae and pupae. The fungus E. nidulans BPPTCC 6038 was isolated from leaves of mangrove Rhizophora mucronata and identified based on ITS rDNA sequence data, with the GenBank accession number KP165435, and confirmed with morphological observation. This fungus strain was grown on malt extract broth for 14 days on rotary shaker at 65 rpm, and incubated at room temperature. Mortalities of S. litura were observed on larvae fed on artificial diet containing ethyl acetate extract of E. nidulans at concentrations of 625 – 5000 ppm. The lethal concentration of the extract which causes 50% mortality of larvae (LC50 value) was 1102.27 ppm. The other effects of fungus extract on S. litura were decrease in growth rate, longer larval period, inhibition on pupal development and absence in adult emergence. The HPLC analysis of extract showed that the crude extract contained three major compounds. This study provides evidence that the extract of E. nidulans possesses insecticidal activities against S. litura.

Abstract

The research aims to know the effect of variation temperature to the growth of Nostoc HS (Hot Spring)-5 and HS-20. Strain of Nostoc HS-5 was isolated from Ciseeng hot spring which has habitat temperature range of 30-43 °C, and Nostoc HS-20 was isolated from Pancar Mountain hot spring which has temperature range of 46-69 °C. The research was done by measuring biomass weight and chlorophyll content on day-1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 10, 14, 17, and 21. The temperatures used were 20 °C, 35 °C, and 50 °C. The growth medium used was Bold Basal Medium (BBM) with pH 6.6. Each treatment was made in four replications. Non-parametric statistical analysis used were the Friedman test (a=0.05) and Spearman test (a=0.01).The result showed there were significant differences on the biomass weight of Nostoc HS-5 and HS-20 grown at temperature of 20 °C, 35 °C, and 50 °C. The average amount of biomass highest weight for Nostoc HS-5 and HS-20 occurred in both strains were grown at 35 °C.  Besides that, there was no correlation between the weight of biomass and chlorophyll content of Nostoc HS-5 and HS-20.
