Abstract

Maleo bird is one of the unique animals of the aves class which is included in endemic animals in Indonesia. The Maleo bird is almost endangered due to predators and irresponsible behavior of local people. One of the conservation efforts carried out by the government is contained in Law No. 5 of 1990 and Government Regulation No. 7 of 1999 concerning the protection or conservation of Maleo birds. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the morphological and physiological characteristics of the Maleo bird (Macrochepalon maleo), the anatomy of the Maleo bird (Macrochepalon maleo), the relationship of the uniqueness of the behavior of the Maleo bird (Macrochepalon maleo)  with the morphology, anatomy, and physiology of the Maleo bird, as well as conservation efforts of the Maleo bird (Macrochepalon  maleo). The method used is a literature review by reading various books, journals and papers and other publications in accordance with the research topic. The results of research that have been conducted show that the morphology, anatomy, and physiology of the Maleo bird are closely related to the behavior of the Maleo bird. The Maleo bird uses a crest located on its head to detect heat when digging an egg nest. Maleo bird legs equipped with sharp hooves can make Maleo birds able to survive in coastal forests. Maleo birds are monogamous animals, namely animals that are loyal to their partners. The advice that can be given through this literature review is that the community must have awareness to take care of the Maleo bird as a form of accountability for the mandate given by God to humans. Key words: Aves; endemic; conservation; maleo; morphology

Abstract

Melon has high potential and economic value and has been developed in various fields such as plant breeding, cultivation technology, and the creation of new varieties. Proper cultivation and maintenance techniques are one of the efforts to increase melon crop production through fertilizing with the right type of fertilizer and dosage and concentration. Information on the use of NPK fertilizer and Growmore Fertilizer to increase the diameter, thickness, and weight of melon fruit has not been found. Therefore, this study aimed to increase the diameter, thickness, and weight of melon fruit. This research was expected to get a better diameter, thickness, and weight of melon. This research was conducted in the experimental garden of the Muhammadiyah University of Jember. Research implementation began in January 2023 with an altitude of ± 98 m asl. This study used a randomized block design (RBD) with two factors and three replications, namely: NPK fertilizer: P0 = 0 g/plant (control), P1 = 600 kg/ha (15 g/plant), P2 = 800 kg/ha (20 g /plant). Growmore leaf ertilizer N0 = 0 g/l (control), N1 = 3 g/l, N2 = 4 g/l (125 ml/plant). Observational variables consisted of: planted fruit weight (kg), fruit weight per plot (kg), fruit diameter (mm), and flesh thickness (mm). In the variables of planting fruit weight and fruit weight per treatment plot that gave the highest yields were P1 with yields of 1.14 kg and 7.52 kg, N2 with yields of 1.09 kg and 6.68 kg, and P1N2 interactions gave the highest yields of 1 .28 kg and 8.20 kg. The variable diameter of the treated fruit that gave the highest yield was P1 with a yield of (24.30 mm) N2 with a yield of (23.09 mm and the P1N2 interaction gave the highest yield of 127.89 mm. On the variable thickness of the treated fruit, the highest yield was P2 with a yield of (5.47 mm, N2 with a yield of (4.61 mm), and P1N2 interaction gave the highest yield of 38.00 mm.   Key words: diameter; thickness; melon fruit; NPK; growmore

Abstract

Papua’s freshwater ecosystems in the western part of New Guinea have begun to record widespread introductions of invasive species over the past decade. This lake's most dominant and common exotic species is Amphilophus labiatus (Günther, 1864). A study was conducted to document the length-weight relationship and condition factor of these fish in Lake Sentani. From June to August 2019, fish were caught using floating gillnets at six locations around the lake. Total length (TL) (mm), body depth (mm), and body weight (grams) were measured, and condition factor based on gender, body weight, and body length were observed in 345 fish, including 264 males and 81 males. The growth pattern of A. labiatus is positively allometric, with b values ranging from 3.19 to 3. 20 and coefficients of determination (r2) ranging from 0.84 to 0.87. Although the average body length of A. labiatus males was shorter than females, condition factor (CF) values were not significantly different between the sexes and ranged from 0. 64 to 2.03 (0.97 ± 1.17, mean ± SD). For males, it went from 0.67 to 1.19 (0.94 ± 0.13 mean ± SD). However, monthly CF data show a significant decrease in CF in August, suggesting that spawning events occur in late July or early August. A. labiatus grows well and colonizes habitats throughout Lake Sentani.

Abstract

This study investigates the anti-inflammatory properties of an ethanol extract from Jabon plant stem bark in male mice using the Rat Hind Paw Edema method. Twenty-five male mice were divided into five groups: negative control (Na-CMC 1%), positive control (mefenamic acid), and three groups receiving the extract at doses of 50 mg/kg, 100 mg/kg, and 200 mg/kg. Measurements were taken every 30 minutes for three hours using a plethysmometer. Analysis with one-way ANOVA and Duncan's test revealed significant anti-inflammatory effects for all doses, with the most effective being 100 mg/kg, showing 93.42% inhibition. The results suggest Jabon plant extract as a promising anti-inflammatory agent.

Abstract

The primary factor contributing to bacterial resistance is the overutilization of antibiotics caused by Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923. The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains possess a significant challenge in both clinical and community environments. Consequently, there is a need to investigate alternative antibacterial sources derived from natural ingredients and local traditional medicines. One such potential source is bajakah Jie Xue Teng (Spatholobus suberectus). The available data on the active component composition and antibacterial efficacy of the ethanol extract derived from bajakah (S. suberectus) in the West Kalimantan region is currently insufficient. The objective of this study is to evaluate the phytochemical composition and antibacterial properties of the ethanol extract derived from bajakah (S. suberectus), a plant species indigenous to West Kalimantan. The antimicrobial activity of the extract will be tested against two bacterial strains, namely S. aureus and MRSA, using in vitro methods. This study employs experimental techniques and is comprised of two distinct phases. The first phase involves conducting a phytochemical test on the ethanol extract of bajakah stem, utilizing the Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) method. The second phase involves evaluating the antibacterial properties of the ethanol extract of bajakah stem against S. aureus and MRSA, employing the paper disc diffusion method. The research findings indicate that the bajakah ethanol extract derived from S. suberectus, a plant indigenous of West Kalimantan, possesses alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, and steroids. The optimal antibacterial efficacy is observed at a concentration of 1,000,000 ppm, resulting in an inhibition zone diameter of 9 mm against S. aureus and 10 mm against MRSA.

Abstract

Local people in Rhepang Muaif Village, Nimbokrang District, Jayapura Regency usually use forest tree bark of three species, especially Dakwab wood, as raw material for noken, Papuan traditional woven bags. This study aimed to 1) scientifically identify the species of trees used for noken, 2) describe how to process fiber as a raw material, and 3) reveal the source of natural dyes used. Data collection was carried out using survey method, semi-structured interviews and participant observation. The result shows that in Rhepang Muaif, some species are used as raw material for noken, mainly species of Dakwab tree (Grewia paniculata). Dakwab fibers are generally coloured with natural dyes derived from Merei plant (Bixa orellana) for red colour and turmeric (Curcuma domestica) for yellow colour. The process of utilizing Dakwab bark as a noken fiber material starts from debarking the tree, stripping the bark, then washing, drying, and making the fiber from tree bark, later colouring if necessary and finally woving or knitting the fiber to become the bag.

Abstract

Butterflies are an important example of pollinating insects of the Order Lepidoptera. The presence of butterfly pollinating insects in nature is highly dependent or influenced by the availability of flowering plants visited in the ecosystem. The purpose of this study was to determine the diversity and abundance of butterfly pollinator in flowering plants. A direct survey method (visual) with a radius of ± 100-250 m² was done with scan sampling technique. Parameters measured were the abundance and the species richness of butterflies visited flowering plants as well as the species richness of flowering plants visited by butterflies pollinator. The data obtained were analyzed using the the Shannon-Wiener diversity index (H’). The results showed that at study sites in secondary forest habitats and yards, 25 species of butterfly pollinators were found consisting of 5 families with 308 individuals. Nine  species of flowering plants visited by butterfly pollinators. The Jatropha integerrima was the most visited by butterfly pollinators with 11 species, followed by Hibiscus rosa-sinensis and Ixora coccinea (9 species), Clerodendron paniculatum (6 species), Mussaenda ralateensis (4 species), Bidens pilosa and Celosia argentea (3 species), Zinnia elegans visited by 2 species and Portulaca oleracea visited by 1 species of butterfly pollinators. Based on the calculation, the value of Shannon-Wiener index (H') is 2.946, which indicates that the level of diversity of butterfly pollinators in the medium category.
