Abstract

Background: Seed is a planting material that must have high viability and quality, including being free from pathogens. One of the obstacles in the supply of quality maize seeds is seed-borne fungal pathogen which can affect the quality of maize seeds and cause plant disease. Endophytic bacteria Bacillus sp. has been widely studied to be able to produce secondary metabolites as antifungals. This study aimed to determine the exact concentration of secondary metabolites of endophytic bacteria Bacillus sp. to decrease the infections of seed-borne pathogens fungal on maize seeds using the blotter test method. Methods: This study used a completely randomized design with four concentration levels (10%, 15%, 20%, 25%) and two strain codes of endophytic bacteria Bacillus sp. (Bth-31a and Bth-22). Results: The result of identifying seed-borne fungal pathogen on maize seed included Fusarium sp., Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger, and Rhizopus sp. The Bth-22 treatment with a concentration of 25% could decrease the infection of seed-borne fungal pathogen and had the highest percentage until 50% compared to the control. While the lowest percentage to decrease the infections of seed-borne fungal pathogen occurred in the Bth-31a treatment with a concentration of 10%, which was 32.1% compared to the control. Conclusions: All seed treatments that used secondary metabolites of Bacillus sp. able to decrease the infections of seed-borne fungal pathogen on maize seed compared to the control.

Abstract

Background: The cemetery is an area for the burial of corpses so that active decomposition of bodies occurs. One of the decomposition bacteria that might be found is lipolytic bacteria because the human body comprises 21,33-32,51 % lipids. Explorations of lipolytic bacteria from cemeteries in Indonesia have not been found, so this research needs to be done. This non-experimental study aimed to select and identify lipolytic bacterial isolates from the Pracimaloyo cemetery, Surakarta. Method: A total of 36 bacterial isolates were selected for their lipolytic activity using tributyrin media. The lipolytic index determines lipolytic activity. Identification of lipolytic bacteria based on colonial morphology and Gram staining. Result: The study showed that 22.2% (8 isolates) showed a lipolytic positive, with the largest lipolytic index (LI) value of 2.5 (isolate P36). Bacterial colonies are circular-shaped, have entire edges, flat elevation, and are yellow or white. Gram staining results showed that the isolated is a group of Gram-negative bacteria in the form of coccus. Conclusion: The conclusion of this study suggests that bacterial isolates from Pracimaloyo cemetery that have potential lipolytic activity, which is likely to be from the genera Pseudomonas and Klebsiella, were obtained.

Abstract

Background: Heavy metals in the environment are a very important environmental pollution problem. Degrading and removing heavy metals does not degrade organic waste because heavy metals are non-biodegradable. Bioremediation is one technique that can be chosen to degrade metal waste. The purpose of this study was to obtain and identify native bacteria from coal waste that have the potential to reduce heavy metals or bioaccumulation. Method: samples were taken from coal waste, then isolated using the dilution method and incubated at 37˚C for 24 hours. Testing for heavy metal content by applying a microbial consortium suspension on coal waste with a mixture of planting media, then analyzed with an atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Results: 10 isolates with different color characteristics were obtained from microbial isolation. The analysis of heavy metal content showed a decrease in the heavy metal Pb in the L1 and L2 treatments but did not affect the heavy metal Cd. Conclusion: The microbial consortium isolated from PLTU coal waste shows a decrease in the heavy metal Pb in treatments L1 and L2.

Abstract

Background: The study conducted in the Pocut Meurah Intan Forest Park (TAHURA PMI) area aimed to analyze the outgoing activity of Heterotrigona itama worker beehives and their relationship with environmental and physical factors such as temperature, humidity, and light intensity. Methods: H. itama activity is observed from 06.00 to 18.00 WIB. Bees exiting the hive are counted using manual counting to determine the number of individuals that exit the hive for 10 minutes every hour. Observation of activities outside the nest consists of foraging, throwing garbage, and drones guarding the nest. Results showed that the peak of activity out of H. itama nests occurred at 09.00 - 10.00 WIB and 13.30 - 14.30 WIB. Results: Foraging activity was the highest nest exit activity. The relationship between light intensity factor and activity outside the foraging nest is moderate (R2 = 0.651), while temperature and humidity are weak (R2 = 0.052 and 0.091). The activity of exiting the nest to throw garbage has a moderate relationship with light intensity (R2 = 0.439) compared to temperature (R2 = 0.253) and humidity (R2 = 0.296). Furthermore, physical factors of light intensity (R2 = 0.6217) had a greater relationship with drone activity out of the nest than factors of temperature (R2 = 0.4385) and humidity (R2 = 0.4063). Activity outside the nest is positively correlated with temperature and light intensity and negatively correlated with humidity. Conclusions: Thus, it can be concluded that light intensity has the greatest influence on the activity out of the nest.
