Abstract

Curvularia andropogonis is a plant pathogenic fungus that causes red spot disease on citronella leaves it infects. This fungus can cause long splotches along the tips and edges of leaves which can result in damage to the entire leaf. In citronella plants, anatomical analysis is needed in the form of analysis of the value of the number and density of stomata and trichomes. Stomata are one of the structural defenses for plants against environmental stresses such as pathogenic infections. In addition to stomata, trichomes also contribute to plant defense and have a protective function. This study aims to analyze the influence of C. andropogonis fungal infection on changes in the anatomy of the epidermal tissue of citronella leaves and to determine differences in the density of stomata and trichomes in normal citronella leaves and citronella leaves infected with C. andropogonis fungus. This research method uses analysis of the number and density of stomata and trichomes using paired t test. The results showed that the average stomata density of healthy citronella leaves was ±470 stomata/mm2 and after being infected, the average density was ±312 stomata/mm2. The average density of healthy citronella leaf trichomes was ±267 trichomes/mm2 and after infection the average density was ±222 trichomes/mm2.

Abstract

Blimbing sub-district is projected in the regional development plan as the center of the Minapolitan economy in the northern region of Lamongan, however this area has problems with waste management conditions so that it is included in an urban slum area. The effort that has been made is the construction of a communal waste collection site in the form of TPS 3R. However, the utilization of TPS 3R is not optimal, the waste input is only 8%, but the TPS capacity is full. This condition indicates the need to manage organic and inorganic waste quickly and efficiently. The lack of understanding of the group responsible for the TPS has resulted in ineffective waste management performance in Blimbing Village. This community service activity aims to provide assistance in strengthening the management of the TPS3R organization so that waste management performance in Blimbing Village can be active again. The method used uses the PAR (participation action research) approach. The activity stages include Socialization, Focus Group Discussion, Mediation, and Training. Training in this service takes the form of organizational management, orderly financial administration, magot cultivation and diaper waste processing. The result of this community service is an increase in understanding of waste management by 45 to 60 percent.

Abstract

The Sawah Tambak Rice-Fish Farming System is a land-use practice that alternates between rice cultivation and fish farming depending on the season. During the dry season, the land is used for growing rice, while in the rainy season, it functions as a fishpond. Successful rice cultivation in this system relies on beneficial rhizosphere bacteria that interact with plant roots through biological, physical, and chemical processes. This study aims to characterize bacteria isolated from the rhizosphere of rice plants (Oryza sativa L.) in this system and evaluate their ability to produce indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and solubilize phosphate. Bacterial colony identification was performed using the streak plate method, IAA production was measured via spectrophotometry, and phosphate solubilization was assessed using the phosphate solubilization index (PSI). The results showed diverse bacterial isolates with distinct morphological, biochemical, and physiological characteristics. Several isolates exhibited strong IAA production, with B3 reaching the highest concentration (18.29 ppm) on the sixth day. Phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) were also identified, with B4 and S5 showing the highest PSI values of 6.06 and 5.3, respectively. These findings suggest that rhizosphere bacteria in the Sawah Tambak system have the potential to enhance rice growth by improving phosphorus availability and producing plant growth hormones, contributing to sustainable and environmentally friendly rice cultivation

Abstract

The demand for fresh and high-quality melon has been steadily growing over the years. Certainly, supply chain challenges significantly impact farmers' ability to produce and distribute their products efficiently for some reasons. Moreover, melon crops are vulnerable to changes in weather and climate. Support in the form of climate-resilient farming practices, weather forecasting, and access to drought-resistant or heat-tolerant varieties can help farmers mitigate risks. Hence, melon farmers, like farmers of any other crop, require support for various reasons due challenging industry, and farmers often face a range of factors that can impact their performance. This article aims to explore how a community service program support a farmer group in Lamongan Jawa Timur by establishing a greenhouse for melon cultivation. The primary focus of a community development report is to document the planning, implementation, progress, and outcomes of a specific community development program. Data collection for a community development report involves qualitative approaches such as surveys, interviews, focus groups, and observations. The method follows the sequential step: The initial step is gathering information about the community's needs, challenges, and aspirations by conducting online interviews, and offline focus group discussion to understand the specific areas that require improvement. The second step is stakeholder mapping, which includes community members, local leaders, local university partners, and local business partners who have a vested interest in the program. The third step entails assessing potential risks and challenges that could hinder the development process. This includes identifying economic, social, environmental, or cultural risks. Based on the information gathered in the previous steps, the design of the community development program was to set clear goals, objectives, strategies, and action plans by tailoring to address the specific needs and circumstances of the community. Last, putting the program into action involves executing the strategies and action plans outlined in the program design, which includes organizing workshops, training sessions, and infrastructure development. The results show that community development is a dynamic and iterative process. Flexibility and adaptability are key qualities as the situation on the ground may change, and new insights may emerge. Additionally, involving the community at every stage of the process fosters ownership, empowerment, and sustainability of the development initiatives.

Abstract

This study evaluated the bioactivity of Moringa plant extracts (Moringa oleifera), Star Fruit Wuluh (Averrhoa bilimbi), and Keres (Muntingia calabura) on antioxidant and antibacterial activities. Extraction was carried out using the maceration method with a 96% ethanol solvent. The antioxidant test was carried out using the DPPH method (2,2-diphenyl-1- picrylhydrazyl), while the antibacterial test was carried out on Staphylococcus aureus bacteria using the well diffusion method. The results showed that Moringa extract had a strong linear relationship between concentration and antioxidant activity, while Star Fruit and Keres extracts showed low antioxidant activity with IC50 values above 100 ppm, indicating weak activity. In the antibacterial test, Star Fruit extract produced a significant inhibition zone, although it was classified as a weak response. These findings suggest that all three plants have potential as sources of bioactive compounds, although optimal efficacy requires optimization of extraction and concentration methods. Further research is needed to identify the main active compounds and explore their mechanisms of action.

Abstract

Cultivation of microalgae Chlorella vulgaris under salinity and heavy metal stress can affect the type and quantity of fatty acids in its cells. This study aims to analyze the fatty acid profile of microalgae C. vulgaris InaCCM49 cultivated in media containing 0.6 M NaCl and 95 µM CdCl2 based on the suitability of biodiesel raw material standards. The study began with determining the starter time of microalgae C. vulgaris InaCCM49 culture, cultivation in salinity and cadmium stress medium, determining the growth phase of treatment and control, biomass extraction for metabolomics analysis, UPLC-MS/MS, fatty acid classification using LIPID MAPS Structure Database (LMSD), and analysis of biodiesel quality standards based on ASTM D6751 and EN14214 which include cetane number (CN), saponification value (SV), cold filter plugging point (CFFP), degree of unsaturation (DU), iodine value (IV) and long-chain saturated factor (LCSF). The results showed an increase in the degree of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) by 10.7 % and a decrease in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) by 36.71% which played a role in the stability of biodiesel compared to the control treatment. The results of the analysis of CN, IV, and CFPP were respectively 55.4, 59, and -16.5. This shows that the composition of fatty acids formed in the microalgae extract C. vulgaris InaCCM49 with salinity and cadmium stress treatment (0.6 M NaCl, 95 µM CdCl2) has the potential to be a source of quality biodiesel raw materials.
