Abstract

The negative impact of limestone mining on a karst area around Gombong is the destruction of ecosystem. Ecosystem’s destruction will decrease the variety, productivity, quality and continuity of indigenous livestock forages. The aim of this research is to know the growth rate of Dwarf Elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum 'Mott') in the post mining limestone with various methods of planting. The method used in this research is an experimental method in an open field that was used for limestone mining by using Completed Random Design. The treatment consists of 4 kinds of planting methods with 4 repetitions, while the research treatment used in this experiment is the RG (the field with Dwarf Elephant Grass); RGL (the field with Dwarf Elephant Grass + peanut legume); RGK (the field with Dwarf Elephant Grass + goat’s compost 1,5 kg/m2) and RGKL (the field with Dwarf Elephant Grass + peanut legume + goat’s compost 1,5 kg/m2). The parameter used for the research is the growth rate which includes the plant’s height, the length of the leaves, and also the width of Dwarf Elephant Grass’s leaves (Pennisetum purpureum ‘Mott’) until the 8th week.The result of this research shows that the use of goat’s compost 1,5 kg/m2 and planting of peanut can give significant results to the growth of Dwarf Elephant Grass in open field that was used for limestone mining.

Abstract

Carotenoid pigment is an essential element in aquaculture, since it gives characteristic of color on shrimp and fish. Carotenoid pigments can be produced microbiologically using Paffia rhodozyma. Genetic improvement of the yeast, one of which can be accomplished by radiation mutation, will increase the production of carotenoid pigments. The aims of this study were to mutate P. rhodozyma using UV irradiation and to figure out pigment production by the mutant strains resulting from 30 minute-irradiation. Irradiated culture was incubated in dark condition and plated onto YMA media. Grown mutant colonies were collected in order to test for their pigment production. Pigment production was measured on the basis of extinction coefficient of 1%. The results showed that mutant strain encoded with MUV-1 produced the highest pigment at 179.96 mg/g dry weight cell, higher than the wild type (63.20 mg/g dry weight cell).

Abstract

Before insecticide formulations can be registered and commercialized, efficacy of  the insecticide should be carried out by an independent institution such us universities or research institutes.  Based on the available protocol issued by the Pesticide Committee, we tested the efficacy two aerosol insecticides i.e. Baygon® and HIT® on Jakarta strain, Bandung strain, and Surabaya strain of Aedes aegypti, including the VCRU standard susceptible strain, confined in two cages with different dimensions inside the Peet-Grady chamber. The findings show that each of the four strains of Aedes aegypti had a significantly different KT50 value after being exposed to Baygon® and HIT® with the VCRU strain had the fastest KT50 among other strains.The results also show that all strain of Aedes aegypti tended to have higher KT50 (knockdown time 50%) when treated inside the large cage (30x30x30 cm) than those in the smaller cage (15x15x15 cm)  even though treated with the same insecticide. The finding of this research suggests that it is imperative that the design and the protocol of insecticide efficacy test issued by the Pesticide Committee should state clearly the strain of Aedes aegypti being used as well as the dimension of the cage inside the Peet-Grady chamber. Herewith we suggest that standard insecticide susceptible Aedes aegypti  strains such as VCRU  as well as  15 X 15 X 15 cm cage are to be used for the mosquito aerosol efficacy test in the Peet-Grady chamber.

Abstract

Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium (L.) Ramat is one of ornamental plant commodities with high aesthetic value. As a consequence of increasing demand, the availability of seeds in adequate number is needed with method in vitro. This study aims to find out the effect of various in vitro culture media on the growth of chrysanthemum explants and to determine alternative media other than MS for in vitro growth of chrysanthemum explants. Experimental method arranged in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with four treatments and four blocks is applied. The treatments are Murashige and Skoog  (MS), Vacint and Went  (V&W), Knudson  and   modified media, while node position serves as block. Time of shoot emergence, shoot length, number of leaves on each shoot, and number of roots are measured. Data are analyzed using Analysis of Variance (F test) with confidence intervals of 95% and 99%. Least Significant Difference (LSD) test is applied when significant difference among variables is observed. Culture media shows significant effect on chrysanthemum explant in vitro growth. Knudson media is found as an alternative media besides MS sufficiently suitable to increase chrysanthemum explants in vitro growth.

Abstract

The plantain banana (cultivar nangka) is among the most valued crop plants in the tropical world. However, the commercially attainable yields are very low compared to other food crops. Somatic embryogenesis has the great potential for rapid and efficient regeneration of plantlets and offers opportunities for large-scale production of plant material. Genetic modification on embryogenic structure offers the opportunity to add desirable gene characteristic. The objective of this study was to evaluate the different medium combination for the induction and optimization of embryogenic formation from immature male flowers. The explants of inflorescence was sampled one month after bunch emergence and approximately 15-20 cm below the last female flower hand. Response of explants and percentage of inflorescence clusters forming nodular callus were recorded and noted. Result of the experiment showed that embryogenic callus could be induced from immature male flowers. The initiation of callus indicated of flower cluster responded to form globular embryogenic callus (49.7% ± 5.2), whereas the percentage of flower cluster responding to form nodular callus was 39.2 % ± 5.3. The highest response of explants forming nodular callus was from flower of rows 12 and 13  (60%).

Abstract

Portof Tanjung Intan Cilacapis one of four major international shipping ports located in JawaIslandand among 85 ports throughout Indonesia. International shipping ports are exposed for non-indigenous species including barnalces as a consequence of shipping traffic. Barnacle is the most common marine fouling found in ship’s hull and ballast water of ocean going vessel. This work was aimed at knowing which barnacle species were passively transported on such vessels hulls, in order to map and monitor non-indigenous species invasion in the area. Four vessels of different origins were investigated between April and November 2009. Among four vessels, three of them were clean. A cosmopolite non-invasive species were found on a ship of Ukrainan origin, Amphibalanus amphitrite., which also occur dominantly in the port of Tanjung Intan Cilacap. This port was considered at no introduction risk of non-indigenous species.

Abstract

Sheath blight and rice blast are two important diseases in rice caused respectively by fungi Rhizoctonia solani and Pyricularia oryzae resulting in considerable yield loss. A study on the segregation pattern of chiI gene among four progenies, i.e. lines 1,7,9 and 20, followed by bioassays of both pathogens was conducted.  PCR analysis using specific primers for chiI gene in 30 plant samples from each line was employed to know the segregation pattern.  The results showed that three of the four lines, i.e. 1, 7, and 9 performed Mendelian segregation of 3 : 1. Southern blot analysis further applied on line 1 revealed the presence of six copies of chiI gene. Bioassay of P. oryzae carried out at vegetative phase indicated that all lines were susceptible to blast, on the other hands,  R. solani bioassay held at heading phase showed that they were all resistant to this fungi.

Abstract

Gourami (Osprhronemus goramy Lac.) is a  freshwater fish that is  widely cultivated in Indonesia, particularly by fish farmer in Java. Soang strain has a faster growth rate than other strains. However, the fry that derived from a single cohort (generated from a single spawning) shows various sizes even in the same age because they have different growth rate. Differences in growth rate may occur due to differences in metabolic capabilities especially cellular respiration. Different rate of respiration can be assumed to be due to differences in the genetic component, especially on their cytochrome c oxidase 1 gene (CO1). Therefore this study aimed to determine whether there are differences in PCR-RFLP marker CO1 gene among different sizes of gourami soang strain from the same cohort so that can be used to analyze genetic diversity. This study used survey method by applying purposive random sampling. Four restriction enzymes were used  during the  research. Molecular characters were defined descriptively based on the appearance of restriction fragment on agarose gel. The result showed that soang strain which used in this study had monomorphics allele on their CO1-HindIII. PstI, BamHI, and EcoRI, could not cut the PCR products and results no RFLP markers. So that genetic variation in the used CO1 gene fragment could not be detected using HindIII, Pst1, BamH1 and EcoR1 enzymes. The three different sizes of soang strain had similar alleles or homozygous, meaning that heterozigocity value was 0 (zero). Therefore, the CO1 gene in this study could not be used as molecular character to differentiate different sizes of gourami soang strain from the same cohort.
