Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to select Lactiplantibacillus plantarum strains suitable for inoculant of rice straw fermentation and to evaluate its fermentation characteristics.Methods: The experiment was conducted at the Feed Bioprocess Laboratory, Research Center for Applied Zoology, National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN). This experiment was designed using a 3×4 factorial arrangement in a completely randomized design (CRD). The first factor was inoculant (1%), and the second was incubation time (7, 14, 28, and 58 days). The first stage was selection of 9 strains of L.  plantarum, based on the ability to lowering the pH and produce lactic acid. The second stage was observing the growth curve of the selected strains of L. plantarum as inoculant for rice straw fermentation. The third stage was monitoring of the rice straw fermentation characteristics, including pH values, concentration of lactic acid, water-soluble carbohydrates (WSC) and NH3-N, also dry matter, ash and crude protein. Data were analyzed based on analysis of variance, and if there was a significant effect, the data were further analyzed with Duncan’s Multiple Range Test.Results: The selected strains L. plantarum Ca098 and L. plantarum 1A-2 showed significant interaction result (p<0.05) compared with treating inoculant and ensiling days. The fermentation time influenced (p<0.05) the quality of rice straw fermentation including pH, concentration of lactic acid, WSC, NH3-N, and crude protein.Conclusions: L. plantarum Ca098 showed the best rice straw fermentation characteristics, with fleigh value of 163.86±5.97 at 58 days of fermentation. L. plantarum Ca098 showed the highest lactic acid, the lowest pH and improve crude protein content.

Abstract

Objective: Marek's disease is lymphoma in chicken caused by Marek's disease virus serotype 1 (MDV-1), characterized by paralysis and tumour formation. The disease has caused enormous economic loss worldwide, including in Indonesia. Unfortunately, molecular data related to MDV-1 from Indonesia is limited. Therefore, this study aimed to identify genetic characteristics of MDV-1 causing outbreaks in commercial farms in North Sumatra, Indonesia, 2013.Methods: The amplification of Meq, pp38, gC, and gE genes of the strain MDN2013 was carried out using the PCR protocol. Fragment gene sequencing was accomplished using the Sanger method. Subsequently, the bioinformatic analyses of BLASTN and phylogenetic tree were applied to analyze the molecular characteristics of these gene sequences.Results: The Meq, pp38, gC, and gE genes of the strain MDN2013 were successfully sequenced and submitted to the NCBI GenBank database. The Meq genes share a high identity with Asian viruses, mainly those originating from Indonesia, India, and China. The pp38, gC, and gE genes share similarities with other viruses in more diverse regions in Asia, Africa, Europe, and America. The phylogenetic tree analysis of the Meq gene demonstrated specific patterns for pathotype biodiversity where the strain MDN2013 has been categorized as virulent up to very virulent virus.Conclusion: In conclusion, the molecular approach is an effective tool for investigating the MDV-1 biodiversity in the field, especially the Meq gene sequence analysis.

Abstract

Objective: The quality and quantity of chicken sperm are critical factors influenced by the semen collection method. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the sperm quality obtained from three native chicken breeds using the female teaser method.Methods: These three native chicken breeds are Arabic, Birma, and Kampung Unggul Balitbangtan (KUB) chickens. Each breed comprised a group of three roosters, and the semen collection was performed ten times. Macroscopic and microscopic evaluations were conducted to assess the chicken sperm. The collected data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) followed by Duncan's multiple range test (DMRT).Result: The results of this study showed significant differences (P<0.05) in the sperm volume among the chicken breeds, with Birma (0.51 ml) and KUB chickens (0.60 ml) exhibiting distinct volumes compared to Arabic chicken (0.25 ml). Generally, the chicken sperm exhibited a milky white color and thick consistency. Microscopic evaluation yielded a mass motility rating of 3+. Meanwhile, individual motility and viability did not exhibit significant differences (P>0.05) among the three native chicken breeds. Abnormalities displayed significant variations (P<0.05), with Birma chicken showing the highest abnormality rate at 9.77%± 0.28. Sperm concentration did not exhibit significant differences (P>0.05), with the highest concentration observed in Arabic chicken at 4265.33±59.84 (x106 cells/ml). However, total sperm count and total motile sperm count exhibited significant variations (P<0.05), with the highest values recorded in KUB chicken at 2241.82±264.13 (x106 cells) and 1936.27±169.85 (x106 cells), respectively.Conclusions: In conclusion, the semen collection method using the female teaser yielded native chicken sperm with high quality and quantity and meets the required standards for successful insemination. This method holds potential and is recommended for application in native chicken breeding programs.

Abstract

Objective: This study was carried out to characterize Pasundan (Rancah) cattle from West Java of Indonesia based on a partial Zinc Finger Y-linked (ZFY) gene sequence.Methods: Total of fourteen (14) DNA samples of unrelated Pasundan bulls at the breeding station (BPPIBT-SP Ciamis, West Java) were used for sequencing analysis. The blood samples were collected from jugular vein of each bull for the DNA extraction analysis. Along 979 bp of ZFY gene was amplified using primer pairs of forward: 5’- GGT GAG GGC ACA TGA GTT C -3’and reverse:  5’- CTC TGC AGG TGG TTG TGT AA -3’. Therefore, a forward sequencing method was performed in the present study to obtain the ZFY gene sequences. Along 714 bp of bovine ZFY gene sequences were used for determining the Neighbor-Joining (NJ) tree for Pasundan bulls with 1000 × bootstrap replications using a MEGA computer program. The genetic diversity parameters of haplotype diversity (Hd), nucleotide diversity (pi), Tajima’s D test and Fu’s Fs statistics were calculated using a DNAsp computer program.Results: Total of fourteen (14) haplotypes of ZFY gene and seventy (70) mutation sites were detected in the Pasundan bulls. The haplotype diversity (Hd) and nucleotide diversity (pi) in Pasundan’s ZFY gene diversity were 1.00 (high) and 0.01 (low), respectively. The neutrality test of Tajima’s D and Fu’s Fs statistic values were -1.42 and -6.47, respectively. Bovine ZFY gene can be classified into two clades of ZFY-1 and ZFY-2. Therefore, the Neighbor-joining (NJ) tree (1000×bootstrap) revealed that the Pasundan cattle are classified into clade ZFY-1 together with Bos taurus (AF241273, AF465179). Meanwhile, a clade ZFY-2 consisted of Bos taurus (AF465181, DQ336536), Bos indicus (DQ336537), and Bos javanicus (DQ336578).Conclusion: The ZFY gene of Pasundan bulls were polymorphic with seventy mutation sites. Therefore, Pasundan bulls were characterized into ZFY-1 clade or Taurine lineage based on ZFY gene sequence variaton. The crossbreeding program with Bos taurus straw to increase meat production of cattle may affecting the genetic structure of Pasundan bulls since this program is widely applied in West Java through many years ago.

Abstract

Many studies have replicated the clinical and genetic features of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) using a range of experimental animal models to improve treatment outcomes. This article aims to present an overview of the various experimental animal models that have been used in PCOS research. In this study, we conducted a systematic review of relevant research articles on the induced animal model PCOS. We searched research articles in Indonesian and English published over the last five years through three databases: PubMed, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar. We use established inclusion and exclusion criteria to select suitable articles. Out of 19 research articles included in our systematic review, we found the animal model PCOS based Rotterdam criteria, PCOS-IR model, PCOS-Inflammation model, PCOS-Gut microbiota model and PCOS-syndrome metabolic model. Androgen agents such as testosterone propionate, free testosterone, DHEA, and letrozole, as well as sodium valproate, are effective in the induction of PCOS phenotypes based on the Rotterdam criteria (oligo/amenorrhea, hyperandrogenic, and polycystic ovaries).

Abstract

Objective: Replanting of oil palm plantations needs to be done to ensure long-term supply. However, problems arise due to the reduced income of farmers during the non-productive period of oil palm plantations, so there are various farmers’ behaviors in responding to this situation. One effort to increase farmers' income is through cattle-oil palm integration. This paper aims to analyze farmers’ behavior, the factors that influence it, and the potential yield obtained from the integration of cattle into oil palm in replanting fields.Methods: The research was conducted using case studies in Cinta Damai Village, Sungai Lilin District, Musi Banyuasin Regency, South Sumatra, from November 2019 to November 2020. The survey was conducted on 35 farmers to assess behavior and factors that could influence it. Meanwhile, the potential yield of cattle-oil palm integration was measured through a demonstration plot of 1 ha of odot grass planting and processing of cow manure waste. Behavioral data were analyzed using path analysis, while the potential yield was analyzed descriptively.Results: The results showed that farmers have behaviors that support the cattle-oil palm integration business. Factors that directly influence this behavior are land area and socio-economic motivation. Meanwhile, socio-economic motivation through success belief has a significant effect on farmers’ behavior.Conclusions: The farmers' behaviour regarding the implementation of cattle-oil palm integration in oil palm replanting areas had criteria of poor, medium and good, with percentages of 5.71%, 25.71% and 68.51% respectively. The factors that directly influence this behaviour are the area of oil palm replanting area and the socio-economic motivation of the farmers. The potential results obtained from implementing cattle-oil palm integration are 1) forage for livestock (FFL) from odot grass, and 2) manure and liquid organic fertilizer (LOF) from cow dunk.
