Abstract

Earthworms are an important component of soil ecosystems. The presence of earthworms in a habitat can enhance the quality of the soil, both in its physical, chemical, and biological properties. This research has the purpose to analyze the comparison of earthworm density found in natural ecosystems and artificial ecosystems. The determination of location points is done using the Cluster Sampling method, which includes both natural and artificial ecosystems. Sampling is conducted using the line transect method along a 100-meter length in 20 plots. The earthworm collection method involves the use of square and hand sorting methods. Data analysis includes density values, frequency, diversity index, and the Morisita index, as well as statistical analysis using an independent sample T-Test to determine the significance of the difference in earthworm abundance between the two locations. Five species of megadrillic earthworms were identified, classified into two ecological categories: epigeic and endogeic. In the natural ecosystem, there were five species, namely Pheretima capensis (epigeic), P. corethururus (endogeic), Pheretima sp.1 (epigeic), Megascolex sp. (endogeic), and Pheretima sp.2 (epigeic). Meanwhile, in the artificial ecosystem, three species were found, which are P. capensis (epigeic), P. corethururus (endogeic), and Pheretima sp.2 (epigeic). The density of megadrillic earthworms in the natural ecosystem (567.8 individuals/m2) is significantly higher compared to the artificial ecosystem (242.5 individuals/m2). The relative frequency of earthworms in the natural ecosystem is divided into 3 categories: Rare (Assesory), Common (Constant), and Very Common (Absolute), whereas in the artificial ecosystem, there are 2 categories: Common (Constant) and Very Common (Absolute). The diversity index of earthworms in the natural ecosystem tends to be higher (H' = 1.236) than in the artificial ecosystem (H' = 0.885). The distribution pattern of megadrillic earthworms in the natural ecosystem is clustered, while in the artificial ecosystem, it is random.

Abstract

The aim of this research is to identify the antibacterial activity of Bridelia micranth Lombok extract on the pathogenic bacteria Escherichia coli. The independent variable in this study was the concentration of Bridelia micrantha leaf extract. The concentration of Bridelia micrantha leaf extract in this study was varied from 20%, 40%, 60%, and 80%. The dependent variable is the ability of Bridelia micrantha leaf extract as an antibacterial. The antibacterial ability of Bridelia micrantha leaf extract was measured based on the diameter of the clear zone with three repetitions. As a comparison, an antibacterial is used, namely amoxicillin. Data analysis in this research was carried out descriptively, and then non-parametric tests were carried out to test the homogeneity of the data. In this study, the antibacterial ability of Bridelia micrantha leaf extract was discovered. At a concentration of 20%, the average diameter of the inhibitory zone was 2.5 mm which was categorized as none (resistance), 40% concentration was 9.83 mm in the non-existent category (resistance), 60% concentration was 13.66 in the weak category (intermediate), and at a concentration of 80% 16.5 mm is in the medium (sensitive) category. The research results indicated that Bridelia micrantha leaf extract had antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli bacteria. When compared with amoxicillin, the ability of Bridelia micrantha leaf extract as an antibacterial is still lower. Amoxicillin was able to inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli by 18.13 mm, while the highest ability of Bridelia micrantha leaf extract was 16.5 mm. Based on Ministry of Health regulations, antibacterials can be used if the inhibition zone is between 14-18 mm. So, Bridelia micrantha leaf extract can be used as an antibacterial, but it needs to be tested further before being applied to the public.

Abstract

Pollinating beetle (Elaeidobius kamerunikus Faust) and thrips hawaiiensis (Thrips hawaiiensis Morgan) are the main pollinators of oil palm. Elaeidobius kamerunikus was introduced from Cameroon in 1982 while Thrips hawaiiensis is a native pollinator that already exists in the ecosystem of oil palm plantations in Indonesia. The purpose of this study was to study the potential of Elaeidobius kamerunikus and Thrips hawaiiensis as pollinating agents in oil palm. This research was conducted in a plasma plantation belonging to the Agricultural Technology Assessment Agency (BPTP) in Nagari Gunung Medan, Sitiung District, Dharmasraya Regency, West Sumatra Province. The parameters used to measure the potential of insect pollinators are population abundance, frequency of visits, and fruit set and fruit grade values, as well as the yield of palm oil produced. Observation of abundance was carried out by directly observing the population of these insects on male flowers of oil palm that were in anthesis. The frequency of visits by Elaeidobius kamerunikus and Thrips hawaiiensis was carried out on receptive female oil palm flowers using the Fix Sample Method. Observations of the frequency of visits were carried out in the morning, afternoon and evening. Pollination effectiveness is done by looking at the value of fruit set and the grade of fruit produced. Based on the analysis of the observed data, it is known that the population abundance of Elaeidobius kamerunikus is higher than that of Thrips hawaiiensis. Likewise with the frequency of visits Elaeidobius kamerunikus visited the female oil palm flowers more often than Thrips hawaiiensis. Based on the time of observation, Elaeidobius kamerunikus visited more female oil palm flowers in the morning and afternoon, while in the afternoon the frequency of Thrips hawaiiensis visits was higher. The total fruit formed as a result of pollination of Thrips hawaiiensis was 793 consisting of 177 grade A, 145.5 grade B, and 472.50 grade C, while the fruit pollinated by Elaeidobius kamerunikus was less, namely 514.5 fruit consisting of 150 grade A, 125.5 grade B, and 239 grade C. The fruit set values produced by the two pollinator insects tested were low, namely 46.45% for Elaeidobius kamerunikus and 59.43 for Thrips hawaiiensis.

Abstract

Four endophytic bacteria have been isolated from banana kluthuk plants and banana ambon. Previous study showed that they produce Indole Acetic Acid (IAA). This study aimed to analyze the effect of endophytic bacterial inoculation on plant height and the number of rice root. For this reason, two endophytic bacteria of each klutuk banana and ambon banana plants were cultured and examined for growth rate using a 600 nm spectrophotometer. Isolate growth was calculated every two hours for 16 hours of bacterial growth in NB media. Bacterial inoculation experiments on rice plants were carried out with five replications. This inoculation begun with germination of rice seeds until the radicle was observed. Then germinated rice seedlings were soaked in a bacterial suspension for 1 hour at room temperature. The results showed the exponential phase of all isolates was observed at 6 hours with shaking. Inoculation using A22 and A51 isolates significantly increases plant height, number of leaves. While, A22 isolate significantly increased the number of roots compared to the uninoculated plants (control). It supports the potential of endophytic bacteria from banana kluthuk and ambon plants.
