Abstract

Amorphophallus muelleri Blume, commonly known as Porang, is a glucomannan-producing plant with extensive benefits. To boost its production, proper fertilization methods are essential. However, excessive use of inorganic fertilizers can negatively impact soil fertility. Adopting environmentally friendly agriculture, this study explores the effect of etawa goat manure on the growth of Amorphophallus muelleri Blume tuber shoots. Conducted from September 2022 to February 2023, the research used a Completely Randomized Design with five treatments: P0 (control), P1 (100 g), P2 (200 g), P3 (300 g), and P4 (400 g), each replicated four times. Data analysis involved the SPSS 24.0 program, employing one way ANOVA test and 5% BNT test. Results indicated that etawa goat manure did not significantly affect sprouting age and shoot height, but significantly influenced shoot diameter of tubers. The most optimal dose was 400 g (P4), producing the highest average shoot height (5.61 cm) and shoot diameter (9.70 mm). The fastest sprouting age (7 days after planting) occurred with 200 g of manure (P2), while the slowest growth (31.50 days after planting) was observed in the 100 g dose treatment (P1). In conclusion, environmentally friendly practices, especially applying 400 g of etawa goat manure, enhance the growth of Amorphophallus muelleri Blume tuber shoots. These findings offer valuable insights into sustainable agricultural approaches to cultivate this valuable plant.

Abstract

The F2 population of maize plants that has been obtained from hybridization between NK212 and NK7328 varieties has not been suspected of genetic diversity components and heritability in the narrow sense. This study aimed to determine the magnitude of the alleged value of variety components and heritability, as well as determine the types of varieties to be formed. The experimental design used was the Group Randomized Design (RAK) - North Carrolina I (NCI) consisting of 120 treatments. The experimental setup involved 40 male parent plants, each paired with 3 female parent plants in season I, and this procedure was replicated twice, resulting in a total of 240 treatment groups. The collected data was subjected to analysis through variety analysis (ANOVA) utilizing the NCI model. The results showed that the presumptive value of additive variety and dominant variety based on the results of data analysis varied, but in all observed traits the dominant variety value tended to be greater. Most of the observed traits have a negative heritability presumptive value, except for stem diameter, panicle exit age, fresh pruning weight, and 1000 seed weights. The conclusion obtained is that most of the observed properties have additive variance values and negative heritability values; the dominant variance value in all observed properties is greater than that of additive variety; The heritability of most traits cannot be predicted because they are negative. Therefore, it is advisable for the improvement of the F2 population is with the formation of hybrids.

Abstract

Brown rice local cultivars are found in West Nusa Tenggara, but brown rice is still very rare to be used as a source of genetic diversity and its improvement is also lacking to be considered. This research aims to determine the effect of 300 Gy gamma ray irradiation on the quantitative properties of third generation G16 brown rice (M3) in the uplands. In this research, an experimental method was used with field experiments from May to December 2022 in Tatar Hamlet, Nyurlembang Village, Narmada District, West Lombok Regency. This research used Randomized Block Design (RBD) in an Augmented design with 18 treatments consisting of 15 G16 mutant strains and 3 comparison plants. The data obtained were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (Anova) with a level of 5%, then the real different treatment was further tested using the Least Significance Different (LSD) test. Based on the results of the research, it was obtained that some of the quantitative traits observed did not have differences in the properties of the elders and their comparators. The morphological apperance of mutant plants is the same as that of both the elders and the comparison varieties. However, it can be said that all strains based on their morphological appearance have the potential to be developed on dry land, because all strains tested show the same results compared to their elders and peers.

Abstract

Functional rice is a food that contains more than one forming component that is useful for health. Nowadays public interest in functional food is increasing, so functional rice production needs to be increased. Therefore, this research was conducted with the hope of obtaining information on superior agronomic characters to increase the yield power of functional rice strains. The method used was experimental using a randomized group design (RAK). Data analysis consists of Analysis of Variance, genetic diversity coefficient, phenotype diversity coefficient, genotype correlation, phenotype correlation, and heritability in a broad sense. The results showed that the heritability value of high area meaning is found in the character of flowering, harvest age, plant height, panicle length of the amount of grain contained, and the amount of empty grain. The high value of the KKG and KKF is indicated by the character of the number of non-productive saplings, while the lowest value is indicated by the character of the age of harvest. All quantitative characters observed showed positive genotypic correlation results to grain weight per clump. While in phenotypic correlation only the character of plant height, panicle length, the amount of grain containing, the amount of hollow grain and the weight of 100 grains are positive. Based on the analysis that has been carried out the character  of plant height, panicle length, the amount of grain containing the amount of hollow grain and the weight of 100 grains need to be taken into account as selection criteria to obtain high-yielding functional rice.
