Abstract

The Sentani snakehead fish (Oxyeleotris heterodon) is an endemic fish species that inhabits Lake Sentani and several other lakes in Papua Province, Indonesia. This species has important ecological and economic value, but is vulnerable to environmental change and overexploitation. Genetic identification, especially using the Cytochrome Oxidase 1 (COI) gene, is very important for conservation efforts and understanding the genetic diversity of Sentani Snakehead Fish. DNA barcoding techniques with the COI gene have become the standard method in molecular identification of species, allowing rapid and accurate identification. Unfortunately, the Sentani Snakehead Fish faces various threats such as habitat degradation, pollution, overfishing and the introduction of invasive foreign species. Therefore, genetic research is becoming increasingly important to support conservation efforts, providing in-depth understanding of the population status and adaptive potential of species. The results of DNA amplification and sequencing of COI gene fragments showed a DNA sequence with a length of 619 base pairs with the composition A (23.9%), G (18.1%), C (29.1%), T (28.9%). The results of identification by homology analysis in the NCBI and BOLD databases showed the highest similarity at 97.58% and 97.84% with the O. lineolate sequence. This is because there is no O. heterodon sequence from the COI gene fragment found in Genbank or the BOLD system. Phylogenetic tree analysis with several sequences that have close similarities shows a difference in clade between the O. heterodon sequence from this study with the O. lineolate sequence and other species.

Abstract

This paper aims to evaluate the relationship between microplastic abundance and plankton species diversity. Microplastics, as a new and increasingly disturbing pollutant, can affect the quality of aquatic ecosystems, including plankton communities. Water samples were taken from several points in Kwatisore waters to measure microplastic concentrations, as well as to identify and count the types of plankton present. The results of the analysis will later show that there is a negative relationship between the abundance of microplastics and the diversity of plankton types. An increase in microplastic concentrations is associated with a decrease in the amount and diversity of plankton, which can impact the stability of aquatic ecosystems. These findings underscore the importance of managing and mitigating plastic pollution to maintain healthy aquatic ecosystems. Further research is needed to understand the impact mechanisms of microplastics in more depth and to develop effective conservation strategies.

Abstract

Understanding the genetic diversity of sea urchins is essential for studying species diversity and the genetic relationships among species and individuals. The primary objective of the research was to determine the genetic diversity of sea urchins from Rendani Waters, Manokwari Regency. Specifically, the study aimed to identify the species of sea urchins, assess their nucleotide diversity and composition, measure genetic distances, and explore the kinship relationships between individual sea urchins. The research used a descriptive method and was conducted from November to December 2022. The species identification, based on genetic analysis, revealed that all samples belonged to T. gratilla, with a 99.20-100.00% similarity to the reference species. Genetic diversity among individual samples was found to be relatively low. The nucleotide composition showed an average GC content of 39.34-40.34%, which was lower than the AT content (53.87-60.66%). The genetic distance between the samples ranged from 0.00 to 0.07. A phylogenetic tree, constructed from the data, grouped all samples into two clusters with bootstrap values of 62/54.
