Abstract

Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) is one of Indonesia's wild plants which is considered a weed because of its rapid growth that can cause environmental problems. Generally, water hyacinth control is carried out physically/conventionally by throwing it away or burning it, causing new environmental problems. Water hyacinth has a high organic matter content, therefore water hyacinth can be used as an alternative feed to increase the production of earthworms. This study aims to determine the effect of adding water hyacinth as feed to increasing the production of earthworms (Lumbricus rubellus).This study aims to determine the effect of adding water hyacinth as feed to increasing the production of earthworms (Lumbricus rubellus). The research was conducted in the Dasan Dao hamlet, Ranggagata Village, Southwest Praya District, Central Lombok Regency, in the researcher's private house for 60 days. This type of research is an experimental research. The research design used was a completely randomized design with 4 treatments and 4 replications. Treatments were P0 (0 grams of water hyacinth), P1 (50 grams of water hyacinth), P2 (100 grams of water hyacinth), P3 (150 grams of water hyacinth). Parameters observed were the number and weight of earthworms. The results showed that the treatment had a significant effect on the weight and number of earthworms (P<0.05). The results of the treatment on the number of earthworms P0;P1;P2;P3 were 84;93.75;117.25;127.5 and the weight of earthworms was 85;102.5;118.75;124.75. The highest number and weight of earthworms were found in the P3 treatment (150 g of water hyacinth). The conclusion of this research is the addition of water hyacinth as feed can increase the number and weight of earthworms.

Abstract

The diversity of pollinating insects is used as conservation management. Pollen is gametophyte from male which can give characteristics to its offspring. The pollen carried by bees can be used as an identification of feed favored by bees. This study aims to identity pollen derived from the legs of stingless bees based on the color morphological characteristics of the pollen. The methods include color identification of pollen collected by stingless bees, pollen extraction, acetolysis, and pollen identification. Pollen with the same species at the study site has a color that is not much different. Stingless bees take pollen based on the size and distance of the plant to the hive. Smell and color as a secondary binder for stingless bees. Different plant pollen species can also be influenced by the protein requirements of each stingless bee colony. It can recognize the presence of flowering plants aroud the hive. The size of pollen can affect the bees in taking plant pollen.

Abstract

The Culex genus is widely distributed in Indonesia. It is responsible for disrupting and interfering of human daily activities and also transmitting some diseases for human. Vector control strategies normally involve the use of synthetic larvacide however excessive use causes adverse effect on environmental quality and resistance to larvae. Thus, extract from soursop (Annona muricata L.) leaves may be an alternative sources of larval control agents. The present study reveals the larvicidal effect of methanol extract from soursop leaves against 3rd instar larvae of Culex sp. mortality. Experimental method with Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consisting of 6 treatments (0 ppm, 125 ppm, 250 ppm, 500 ppm, 1000 ppm and 2000 ppm) and 4 replications was carried out with Culex sp. 3rd instar larvae and the larval mortality was recorded after 48 hours since the exposure. Data were analyzed using one way ANOVA which was continued by Tukey HSD and followed by Probit analyze to determine LC50 and LC90. The results showed that the methanol extract of soursop leaves exhibited significant larvicidal activity with LC50 and LC90 values are 586,099 and 2119,645 ppm. The highest concentration increases the mortality rate of larvae. In conclusion, the soursop leaves methanol extract has a larvacide effect on the 3rd larvae of Culex sp.

Abstract

Striped eel catfish (Plotosus lineatus) are fish that live in coastal waters but there are also those that live in river mouths. This study aimed to determine the growth and survival rate of striped eel catfish fingerlings at different sizes in controlled media. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with three treatments (different sizes) and three replications, so there were nine experimental containers. The treatments used were treatment A: maintenance of fingerlings size (3.5-4.0 cm); treatment B: maintenance of fingerlings size (4.9-5.6 cm); and treatment C: maintenance of fingerlings size (7.0-8.0). During maintenance, absolute length gain, relative growth rate, specific growth rate, and fingerlings survival were determined. The results showed that fingerling size had a significant effect on growth performance and survival. Fingerlings measuring 4.9-5.6 cm had the highest growth performance, while fingerlings measuring 7.0-8.0 cm showed the highest survival rate than other sizes. This indicates that the fingerlings measuring 4.9-5.6 cm and 7.0-8.0 cm are suitable for aquaculture.
