Abstract

Phyllanthus niruri L. is a medicinal plant that has been developed as phytopharmaca. The efforts to cultivate P. niruri need to be done to fulfil the large-scale and sustainable needs as raw material for traditional medicine. Propagation of P. niruri using seeds is still a problem, because the seeds have low seed germination. One of the plant hormones that play an important role in germination is gibberellins (GA3). This study aimed to determine the effect of concentration of GA3, soaking time, and the interaction of both factors on P.niruri seed germination, and determine the optimal concentration of GA3 and soaking time to increase germination of P.niruri seeds. It was arranged in a factorial completely randomized design with two factors. The first factor was the concentration of GA3 i.e 0, 300, 310, 320, 330, 340, 350, 360 ppm. The second factor was the soaking time i.e 6, 12, 18, and 24 hours. The parameters observed were the percentage of germination, germination time, and vigour index. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and DMRT (α = 0,05). The result showed that the interaction between GA3 concentration and soaking time had significantly affected the percentage of germination and vigour index. Soaking seeds in GA3 concentration of 360 ppm for 18 hours is the optimal treatment that produces a percentage of germination was 83.33%, germination time was 3.38 days, and vigour index was 2.74 seeds/day

Abstract

Soursop leaf (Annona muricata L.) is an herbal plant that is widely used by the public empirically because it has many properties. The sling leaf contains tannin compounds, alkaloids, as well as several other chemical compounds including annonaceous acetogenin, which can be used as a treatment. This study aims to find out if soursop leaf extract has the effect of deducting blood glucose levels in mice test animals (Mus musculus) which induced a 50% glucose solution. The study used the RAL method (complete random design) and 20 male mice were divided into 5 groups with 4 repetitions. Group P1, P2, and P3 (treatment group) administered ethanol extract of sine leaves at doses of 250, 500, and 750 mg/kg bb respectively, while k- and k+ (control group) administered CMC 0.5% and glibenclamide with oral administration. The data obtained were statistically analyzed with ANOVA (Variance analysis) one-way to find out the differences between treatment groups and continued with the BNT test (The smallest real difference) to find out meaningful differences between groups. The results showed that there were differences between the treatment group and the control group. On the 7th day of the BNT test, the treatment group with a dose of 750 mg/kg bb showed significant differences between the negative Control group (CMC 0'5%), Positive control (Glibenclamide), P1 (250 mg/kg bb), and P2 (500 mg/kg bb), while on the 14th day showed no significant difference with the treatment group of 500 mg/kg bb. concluded from this study that all concentrations of ethanol extract of sling leaves could lower blood glucose levels in test animals, with the most optimal decrease being the group at a dose of 750 mg/kg bb.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the abundance and distribution pattern of gastropods in the intertidal bay, Kambang Lengayang District, Pesisir Selatan Regency, West Sumatra. The benefits of this research are expected to be a reference or information for further research in Kambang Bay which in the end is expected to minimize the adverse effects of gastropod hunting. The research method used in this study is a survey method, namely direct observation and sampling which is divided into 3 stations where the sampling station 1 is taking in the coastal waters of the bay in an area where there is no community activity, station 2 is taking in the waters of the bay in the fishing trawl area. station 3 taking in the coastal waters of Kambang in the reclamation area. Based on the analysis of organic sedimentary material in the study area, the average value was obtained at station 1 (3.55%), station 2 (4.20%) and station 3 (3.33%). Based on the analysis, the sediment fraction that dominates each station is sand. The gastropods found at the study site were Clypeomorus bifasciata, Littoraria scabra and Cerithulata cingulata. The abundance of gastropods in the coastal waters of Kambang ranged from 2.33 to 5.00 Ind/m2. The results of the ANOVA test showed that the abundance of gastropods in the bay waters showed 0.214 beaches, indicating that the difference in abundance between stations was not significant. The gastropod pattern found at the study site is generally in groups.

Abstract

Bananas are one of the horticultural crops of the fruit group that have quite high social and economic value. One type of banana that is very popular is the pisang kepok. The main obstacle in pisang kepok  production is the availability of seedlings. The above constraints can be overcome by propagation of banana seedlings using tissue culture techniques by adding colchicine to the tissue culture media. Colchicine is often used to improve plant quality. This study aims to determine the effect of adding colchicine to the media on the growth and formation of pisang kepok abu plantlet. The study was conducted from November 2019 - February 2020 at the MTC Laboratory, PT Great Giant Pineapple PG 4, East Lampung. The concentration of colchicine added to the media was 0.1%. The growth and development of plantlets produced from media with colchicine treatment will be compared with plantlets from the control group. The tests were repeated 10 times. The results showed that the growth and formation of pisang kepok abu plantlets from the treatment of colchicine were lower than the growth and formation of the pisang kepok plantlets in the control group.

Abstract

Zanthoxylum acanthopodium DC. Belongs to the Rutaceae family commonly used for cooking spices and medicinal plants and has the potential to be developed in the pharmaceutical and food industries. Publication on aspects of cultivation is still limited, and generative propagation using seeds is still a problem because the seeds have low seed germination. This happens because the seeds experience dormancy and have a hard seed coat structure. This research aims to know the effect of H2SO4 concentration and soaking time, and the interaction of both factors on Z.acanthopodium seed germination, and determine the optimal concentration of  H2SO4 and soaking time to increase the germination of Z. acanthopodium seed. This study used a Factorial Completely Randomized Design with two factors. The first factor is the concentration of H2SO4 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100%, and the second factor is the soaking time of 15, 30, 45, and 60 minutes followed by soaking in water for 24 hours. The parameters observed were the percentage of germination, germination time, and vigor index. The observation data obtained were discussed descriptively. The results showed that the treatment of seeds soaking in H2SO4 at concentrations of 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% with a soaking time of 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, and 60 minutes was not able to increase the germination power of andaliman seeds Z. acanthopodium. Soaking seeds in 75% H2SO4 for 60 minutes resulted in a germination percentage of 6.67%, a germination time of 7 days, and a vigor index of 0.05 seeds /day.

Abstract

Moths are insects that belong to the Lepidoptera Ordo. Moths are attracted to volatile compounds. The examples of volatile compounds include alcohol, urea, and acetic acid. Pineapple, banana and tapai are three types of bait that will be used in this study, because all three types of bait contain volatile compounds in the form of scents that strong enough to attract moths. Liwa botanical garden is a recreational and educational place, located in West Lampung district, which was only approved by the Regional Government in 2007. Because there is onlya view data on the presence of moths, so it needs to conduct the research to know the variation types of moths that exist in Liwa botanical garden, West Lampung. This research is a Quasy Experiment with 3 kinds of baits, there are pineapple, banana, and tapai as a treatment with 5 replications in the form of sampling time. The result obtained that in AraceaeLiwa Botanical Garden were obtained by six families, nine genera, and nine species of moth. Nine species of moths are Nemophora sp, Nematopogon sp, Brahmaeawallichii, Rhodogastriaamasis, Creatonosgungis, Sundasceliaepelys, Rheumaptera sp, Noctua sp, and Epicnopterix sp
