Abstract

Microplastic contamination in refill drinking water is a relevant public health concern because this product is widely consumed. This study analyzed the effect of boiling temperature on microplastic abundance and characteristics in refill drinking water from Samarinda City. Four samples from different refill depots were randomly collected and treated as unboiled water, water boiled at 70°C, and water boiled at 100°C. Microplastics were separated by density separation using saturated NaCl, organic matter digestion with 30% H2O2, filtration, and microscopic identification. The results showed that refill drinking water contained pellets, fragments, films, and fibers, with black particles being dominant at 58.87%. Boiling at 70°C produced the lowest microplastic abundance and reduced particles by up to 50% compared with unboiled water. In contrast, boiling at 100°C left higher abundance and generated film particles of 20 particles/L. These findings indicate that moderate-temperature boiling is more effective for reducing microplastic exposure before water consumption

Abstract. Anwar S, Mansor AB, Haris H, Hayati QN, Fathiya N, Budiman. 2026. Phytoremediation potentials of eight plant species on the tropical gold mine reclamation site in North Sumatra, Indonesia. Asian J Agric 10 (1): g100148. https://doi.org/10.13057/asianjagric/g100148. Post-mining landscapes are often characterized by degraded soils and elevated concentrations of metals, which may hinder ecological recovery and vegetation establishment. This study assessed the accumulation and translocation of metals, i.e., ferrum (Fe), manganese (Mn), zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), and aluminium (Al), in eight fast-growing plant species (i.e., Falcataria falcata, Hibiscus tiliaceus, Ixonanthes reticulata, Macaranga conifera, Macaranga tanarius, Melaleuca cajuputi, Melastoma malabathricum, and Samanea saman) at the Martabe gold mining reclamation site, North Sumatra, Indonesia. Soil and plant samples were collected from three reclaimed areas and analyzed using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS). Phytoremediation potentials were assessed using bioconcentration factors (BCF), translocation factors (TF), and phytomining potentials. The results showed that reclaimed soils were acidic and characterized by very high Al concentration (mean 110,100 mg kg-¹) and Fe concentrations (mean 83,309 mg kg-¹) and moderate concentrations of Mn (mean 653 mg kg-¹), Zn (mean 410 mg kg-¹), Cu (mean 277 mg kg-¹), and Ni (mean 513 mg kg-¹). Five planted species showed medium Mn accumulation (BCF 0.1-1), low Zn accumulation in all planted species (BCF 0.01-0.1) and low and negligible uptake in eight species of Fe, Cu, Ni, and Al. Translocation factors indicated Zn and Cu were preferentially translocated to shoots (TF>1), supporting phytoextraction, while Mn exhibited mixed translocation, with M. conifera acting as a phytostabilizer. Leguminous species, particularly I. reticulata, M. cajuputi, and S. saman, demonstrated relatively higher root-to-shoot translocation efficiencies. Preliminary phytomining estimates, based on single-plot biomass measurements, indicated a greater potential removal for Al (up to 13.7 kg ha-¹), Mn (up to 5.1 kg ha-¹), and Fe (up to 3.15 kg ha-¹) compared to other metals. The results demonstrate clear functional differentiation among planted species, and highlight the importance of trait-based species selection and mixed-species plantings to optimize phytoremediation and support revegetation on reclaimed gold mining lands.

Abstract. Yuliatin E, Hariani N, Dharma B, Patang F, Budiman. 2025. Comparison of rhizobacterial communities between secondary forest and palm oil plantations in East Kalimantan, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 26: 490-499. The conversion of primary forests to plantations is considered a sustainable form of land management; however, its implications for soil rhizobacterial diversity remain insufficiently explored. This study compared the rhizobacterial communities associated with Palm oil Plantation (PP) and Secondary Forest (SF) in East Kalimantan using a metagenomic approach. The soil samples were collected around the Secondary Forest soil (SF) and Palm oil Plantation soil (PP) plant roots in Berambai, Samarinda. The samples were then analyzed for soil physico-chemical properties such as pH, nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), organic matter, and C/N ratio. At the same time, the rhizobacterial diversity was analyzed using a metagenomic analysis through Illumina Hiseq. Soil physico-chemical assessments showed acidic conditions in both soils, with PP being more acidic (pH 4.41) than SF (pH 5.38); nutrient analysis indicated medium nitrogen levels and high organic carbon in both soils, while PP had elevated P content due to fertilization. Metagenomic analysis revealed similar rhizobacterial richness, but diversity was slightly higher in PP. Dominant phyla included Proteobacteria and Acidobacteriota, with notable orders like Rhizobiales and Acidobacteriales. The functional analysis highlighted rhizobacterial roles in organic decomposition, plant growth promotion, and nitrogen fixation, illustrating ecological adaptation to soil conditions and management practices. This study provides insights into the rhizobacterial functional diversity in distinct soil environments.

Abstract. Hariani N, Budiman, Patang F, Yuliatin E. 2025. Bioprospecting of Bacillus species from East Kalimantan, Indonesia for developing sustainable mosquito larvicides. Biodiversitas 26: 1360-1366. Climate change, unplanned urbanization, environmental pollution, and the development of insecticide-resistant mosquito populations have increased Vector-Borne Disease (VBD) incidents in tropical and subtropical countries. They require an innovative and sustainable action strategy. As the endemic area of VBDs, East Kalimantan stores unexplored biocontrol agents such as Bacillus species. Therefore, this study tested the toxicity of nine single and three mixed isolates of Bacillus from East Kalimantan against mosquito larvae of both Aedes aegypti and non-Ae. aegypti species; and identified the selected Bacillus isolates using a 16S rDNA sequence approach. Five single isolates of Bacillus from East Kalimantan (BP1, BP2, BP3, BF2, and BF3) and their consortia (BPM, BFM, and BFP) decreased the larvae number over time. They demonstrated high effectiveness in reducing Ae. aegypti and non-Ae. aegypti larvae population with more than 50% mortality at 48 hours of exposure. However, utilizing a single isolate of Bacillus as a biocontrol agent against mosquitoes was preferred over using mixed isolates for efficiency in larvacide production, offering a sustainable alternative to chemical insecticides. Moreover, Bacillus-BP3 and Bacillus-BF2 isolates from East Kalimantan, identified as Bacillus subtilis, were strong and safe candidates for developing sustainable larvicides to control mosquito populations with larvae mortality percentage up to 100% in 24 hours, mainly Ae. aegypti. Other isolates were identified as Bacillus cereus (BP1) and Bacillus tropicus (BP2), which also showed high and consistent larvacide activity from the beginning of the exposure.

Abstract. Anwar S, Mansor AB, Haris H, Wahyudi R, Hayati QN, Budiman. 2025. Plant diversity and vegetation structure across reclamation ages in a tropical gold mine landscape, North Sumatra, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 26: 6056-6073. Restoration is essential to recover biodiversity in post-mining landscapes. This study aimed to descriptively compare the plant diversity and vegetation structure in reclamation sites aged 3 to 12 years at the Martabe gold mine, North Sumatra, Indonesia. Vegetation was sampled using nested quadrat methods with 10% sampling intensity (2.36 ha of 22.8 ha total area); species richness (S), Shannon–Wiener diversity (H?), Margalef richness (R), and evenness (E) were calculated. The Morisita index quantified community similarity, and species dominance was assessed using the Importance Value Index (IVI). Density profiles (ind·ha-¹) were also constructed to examine stand structure. This research provides novel insights into the trajectories of ecological succession and restoration potential in tropical mining landscapes. Across all age groups, 177 species were recorded, with seedling-stage richness peaking at 58 species in 3-year-old sites. Seedling communities showed high diversity but low evenness, indicating pioneer species dominance. Sapling and pole stages exhibited moderate diversity with balanced species distributions, while tree communities had the lowest richness but increasing evenness with age. Community similarity increased from the seedling to the tree stage, suggesting convergence toward a mature assemblage. Falcataria falcata dominated the tree layer, while Samanea saman and Hibiscus tiliaceus prevailed in sapling and pole layers. Pioneer plants like Melastoma malabathricum and Asystasia gangetica were common among the young seedlings. The vegetation density displayed an inverted J-shaped pattern, indicating healthy regrowth. These findings reveal changes in species composition, dominance, and structure over a decade of reclamation, providing valuable information to enhance mine-land restoration strategies in tropical regions.

Abstract

The Karang Mumus River and Benanga Reservoir are water bodies that play a vital role in supporting ecological functions and meeting the socio-economic needs of urban dwellers of Samarinda. However, pressure from urban anthropogenic activities has caused a decline in water quality in both water bodies. This study aims to assess water quality along the Benanga Reservoir and Karang Mumus River using benthic macroinvertebrates as ecological indicators. Macroinvertebrate benthos sampling was conducted in March 2024 in the upper, middle, and lower reaches of the Karang Mumus River, as well as the Benanga Reservoir, which is the source of the river's water flow. Furthermore, water quality assessment along these waters was determined based on the importance value index (INP), Shannon-Wiener diversity (H'), evenness (E), and Simpson dominance (D), as well as biotic indices, namely BMWP-ASPT (Biological Monitoring Working Party-Average Score Per Taxon) and FBI (Family Biotic Index). The results of the study showed that Benanga Reservoir has a fairly high diversity (H' = 2.05), with a dominance of taxa sensitive to pollution, such as the Baetidae family, indicating relatively good water conditions. BMWP-ASPT and FBI values ​​indicate that the quality of Benanga Reservoir is relatively good. In contrast, the upstream, middle, and downstream segments of the Karang Mumus River showed a gradual decline in water quality. In the middle and downstream segments, the dominance of taxa tolerant of aquatic environmental pollution, such as Lestidae and Tubificidae, was observed, along with a high FBI value (9.49), indicating that the water is highly polluted with organic materials.

Abstract

Student empowerment through the acclimatization of tissue culture–derived orchids represents a strategic approach that integrates biodiversity conservation efforts with the enhancement of human resource capacity. This community service program aimed to improve the knowledge and skills of final-year Biology students in acclimatizing two orchid species of high conservation and economic value, namely Coelogyne pandurata and Phalaenopsis gigantea. The program employed a combination of theoretical instruction, demonstrations of acclimatization techniques, hands-on training, and interactive discussions on business opportunities in orchid cultivation. A total of 15 students participated in the program, which was preceded by a pre-test and concluded with a post-test to assess improvements in participants’ understanding. The evaluation results showed a significant increase in post-test scores (85.33%) compared to pre-test scores (58.67%), with an average N-Gain value of 0.65, classified as moderate. In addition, participants were able to independently perform all stages of the acclimatization process, including the removal of plantlets from culture bottles, washing off residual media, planting in sterile substrates, and the covering process. Questionnaire results indicated a high level of participant satisfaction with the materials, methods, and overall benefits of the program. Overall, this community service activity successfully enhanced students’ knowledge and technical skills in the acclimatization of tissue culture–derived orchids, supported the conservation of high-value orchid species, and strengthened students’ capacity in horticulture and bioresource-based entrepreneurial development.
