Abstract

According to the Indonesian Central Statistics Agency (BPS), banana production has consistently increased from 2020 to 2023, around 12.97%. Unfortunately, Indonesia's annual banana production is still fluctuating and difficult. This is due to the difficulty of obtaining superior seeds in large quantities in a short time. The aim of this research is to determine the effect of the type of cover and planting media on the vegetative growth of kepok banana (Musa Paradisiaca L.) during the acclimation period. This research uses a Divided Plot Design (RPT), the cover as the main plot and the planting medium as the sub-plot. The type of hood used is 16% UV plastic and 75% paranet while the planting media used is top soil + cocopeat, top soil + burnt husk and top soil + vermicompost (vermicompost) in a ratio of 1:2. Data analysis used one way ANOVA and continued with the Duncan test. The results obtained included that the hood treatment had a significant effect on the percentage of live seeds, plant length, stem diameter, leaf area and total chlorophyll. The 16% UV plastic cover type produces the best average results compared to 75% paranet. Planting media had a significant effect on leaf area and total chlorophyll and had no significant effect on other parameters. The interaction between the combination of cover and planting media is found in the parametersof leaf area and total chlorophyll.

Abstract

Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) is a chemical substance in the form of a clear liquid, volatile and toxic with a sweet odor. Palm fruit (Arenga pinnata Merr.) is a plant that has high antioxidants and is able to reduce the effects of free radicals in the body. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of ethanol administration of palm fruit (Arenga pinnata Merr.) on total cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL and LDL levels of white rats (Rattus norvegicus L.) which were induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4). This study used a completely randomized design with 20 mice divided into 5 treatments and 4 replications. Negative controls were given food and drink, positive controls were given carbon tetrachloride 1 mL/kg BW + olive oil ratio 1:3, Treatments 1,2, and 3 were given carbon tetrachloride 1 mL/kg BW + olive oil with a ratio 1:3 + palm fruit ethanol extract in graded doses (P1=90, P2=180, and P3=360 mg/kg BW) for 15 days. Data analysis used one way ANOVA and continued with the Duncan test. The results showed that 1 mL/kg BW of carbon tetrachloride could damage the lipid profile of white rats. Giving ethanol extract of palm fruit (Arenga pinnata Merr.) to P1 and P2 at a dose of 90 mg/kg BW and 180 mg/kg BW had no significant effect. Meanwhile, P3 with a dose of 360 mg/kg BW had a significant effect on reducing total cholesterol, triglyceride and LDL levels and could significantly increase HDL levels at a significant level (p<0.05).

Abstract

Wolbachia pipientis is an endosymbiotic bacterium commonly found in insects, arthropods, and certain nematodes, playing a pivotal role in host reproductive manipulation and pathogen resistance enhancement. This review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the characteristics, physiology, and ecological roles of Wolbachia pipientis, as well as its potential in vector control strategies to combat insect-borne diseases. A literature-based approach was employed, utilizing peer-reviewed scientific journals from reputable sources such as Scopus and Web of Science. The analysis revealed that Wolbachia pipientis is a Gram-negative bacterium with a small size (0.2 to 0.5 µm) that reproduces through binary fission within host cells and relies on the host for essential nutrients. It modulates host gene expression and enhances host immunity, thereby reducing the transmission of pathogens like dengue, Zika, and chikungunya through cytoplasmic incompatibility. Furthermore, Wolbachia pipientis has shown potential in managing filariasis by inhibiting nematode reproduction. The bacterium's ability to alter host reproductive dynamics through mechanisms like feminization and parthenogenesis makes it an effective tool in biocontrol programs. The findings underscore the importance of Wolbachia pipientis in improving public health and environmental sustainability by controlling disease vectors and supporting ecological balance. This review highlights the need for further research to explore genetic engineering approaches to enhance the effectiveness of Wolbachia pipientis in global health management.

Abstract

Language is a crucial tool in scientific communication, particularly in biology, where precise terminology is essential. While Latin scientific names provide standardization, integrating local languages can enhance students' comprehension and engagement. This study examines the impact of using local languages in biological scientific terms among Biology Department students at Medan State University. A qualitative research approach was applied, using online questionnaires and the Guttman scale for data analysis. The results show that 69.93% of students have a positive perception of local language use in biology learning. Most students believe it improves understanding, preserves cultural heritage, and increases motivation. However, challenges arise when local terms do not align with standardized scientific names, leading to misunderstandings. Some students also find it difficult to translate scientific terms into their local language. Despite these challenges, integrating local language fosters cultural appreciation and active learning. A balanced approach combining local and scientific terms is necessary to ensure clarity and accuracy in biology education.

Abstract

This research focuses on the spatial analysis of the relationship between vegetation index and land surface temperature in Ternate Island, Indonesia, which is becoming increasingly relevant amidst the phenomenon of rapid urbanization. The background of the research shows that land use change has the potential to reduce green open space, contributing to an increase in surface temperature that can trigger the Urban Heat Island (UHI) phenomenon. The methods used include utilizing Landsat 8 OLI/TRIS satellite image data to calculate NDVI and LST values and statistical analysis using Pearson's correlation test and Spearman's rho to identify the relationship between the two. The results showed a significant negative relationship between NDVI and LST, with a Pearson correlation coefficient of -0.613, indicating that areas with better vegetation cover tend to have lower surface temperatures, and non-vegetated areas influence the increase of land surface temperature. The discussion highlights the importance of vegetation in regulating surface temperature through evapotranspiration and shading processes and suggests the need for afforestation strategies to mitigate climate change on Ternate Island

Abstract

The snake fruit plant called red snake fruit can be found throughout Maluku, especially in Taniwel District in West Seram Regency (SBB). The flesh of the fruit is thick and dark yellow with a red tinge. The cultivation centers of red snake fruit in Riring Village and Buria Village are at different altitudes, which allows for differences in the content of primary metabolites, especially potassium content, in red snake fruit plants. The focus of the study was the potassium and iron (Fe) content of red snake fruit in the highlands (Riring Village) and lowlands (Buria Village). The first step in conducting potassium content analysis is the process of preparing red snake fruit, where the skin and flesh are peeled and separated. After that, the grass is dried for six times twenty-four hours in an oven. After that, the grass is ground into powder. The potassium content test stage uses the atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS) technique. Here, this step produces a solution that is used to calculate the levels of potassium and iron (Fe). The results showed that red snake fruit was positive for potassium in two different locations at different altitudes. Negeri Buria has the highest potassium content of 2.21715% and Negeri Riring has the lowest potassium content of 1.9121%. Riring Village has an iron (Fe) content of 0.0143mg/L, while Buria Village has an iron content of 0.0157mg/L. Negeri Riring has the highest potassium content of 2.21715% and Negeri Riring has the lowest potassium content of 1.9121%.
