Abstract

Cadmium (Cd) is a heavy metal soil pollutant that can be toxic to plants. This study investigated the response of maize (Zea mays L.) grown in peat soil exposed to different levels of Cd stress. Four concentrations of CdSO₄ (0, 20, 40, and 60 ppm) were applied using a completely randomized design with three replications. Growth performance was evaluated through plant height, leaf production, and fresh biomass, while Cd accumulation in plant tissues was determined using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS). The results showed that the application of heavy metal cadmium sulfate (CdSO4) in the planting media up to 60 ppm did not affect the plant height, number of leaves and wet weight of maize. Maize showed tolerance to cadmium stress, as the application of CdSO₄ up to 60 ppm. Cadmium was detected in both roots and shoots, with greater accumulation occurring in the roots. This pattern suggests that maize restricted Cd movement to aerial tissues, which may contribute to its tolerance under Cd exposure. The findings indicate that maize can maintain normal vegetative growth under moderate Cd stress in peat soil. Further research is needed to assess long-term effects and cadmium accumulation in plant tissues.

Abstract

Begonia is a herbaceous plant that grows in tropical rainforests from lowland and highland areas. Until now, exploration of Begonia in West Kalimantan is mostly done in lowland areas. Data on Begonia spread in highland areas in West Kalimantan are still limited. The study aims to investigate Begonia types, morphological characteristics, and habitats. The hiking track of the Rantau Malam Resort in Bukit Baka Bukit Raya National Park, Sintang Regency, was the site of this study. The cruising method was used for sampling. The results showed that there were five types of Begonia, namely B. lailana Kiew & Geri, B. mariaensis Rimi & Simun, B. paoana Kiew & S. Julia, B. danumensis F.Y Chong and B. bawangensis Houghes. Four of the five Begonia types grow on soil, while one grows on rocks. Begonia mariaensis is a new record for Indonesia.

Abstract

Rotan termasuk ke dalam famili Palmae yang merupakan tumbuhan pemanjat sehingga membutuhkan tumbuhan inang dalam tahap pertumbuhan dan perkembangan. Rotan dapat tumbuh di dataran rendah dan dataran tinggi pada daerah yang lembap (pinggiran sungai). Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui jenis-jenis rotan di kawasan Hutan Adat Desa Lundang Dedai Sintang, Kalimantan Barat. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan pada bulan Juli sampai September 2023 dengan menggunakan metode jelajah (Cruise Method). Jenis-jenis tumbuhan rotan yang berhasil diidentifikasi sebanyak dua genus, yaitu Calamus, dan Korthalsia yang terdiri dari enam jenis, yaitu rotan lilin (Calamus javensis Blume), rotan marau (Calamus plicatus Blume), rotan temuai (Calamus sp.), rotan getah (Calamus melanochaetes (Blume) Miq.), rotan dahan (Korthalsia rigida Blume), dan rotan pelanduk (Korthalsia sp.). Keenam jenis rotan tersebut memiliki habitus berumpun.
