Abstract

The natural tourism area of Teluk Youtefa in Jayapura City is known for its mangrove forests, rich in biodiversity, particularly Avicennia alba. Mangroves serve as coastal buffers, pollutant filters, and habitats for various flora and fauna. However, climate change, pollution, and human activities can affect the ecological balance and bioactive compound content of A. alba, which has long been recognized as a potential source of medicinal and natural antioxidant compounds. Fluctuations in water quality, invasive species, and land-use changes may disrupt both the ecosystem and the complexity of its bioactive constituents. Understanding the impact of environmental factors on both aspects is crucial for effective and sustainable conservation. This study aims to explore the relationship between environmental factors and the production of bioactive compounds in mangroves. The research investigates how environmental changes influence the ecological balance and bioactive content of Avicennia alba, and their implications for the sustainability of the Teluk Youtefa mangrove tourism area. Sampling was conducted using a purposive sampling method, focusing on environmental parameters such as temperature, salinity, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), biological oxygen demand (BOD), and total suspended solids (TSS), along with laboratory analysis of bioactive compounds. The results show that the site with poor environmental quality (Site 1) recorded DO at 3.2 mg/L, BOD at 5.8 mg/L, and Pb at 0.07 mg/L. In contrast, the site with better environmental conditions (Site 3) showed DO at 5.5 mg/L, BOD at 2.1 mg/L, and salinity at 32.4 ppt. The bioactive compounds identified include Wagner’s alkaloids, Dragendorff’s alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, saponins, and tannins. The polluted site (Site 1) yielded only three compounds—flavonoids, terpenoids, and saponins—whereas the conservation site (Site 3) revealed the full set of six bioactive compounds, including alkaloids and tannins. These findings indicate that environmental quality has a direct influence on the complexity of bioactive compounds and the ecological potential of mangrove ecosystems.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) inoculation on the growth and yield of maize (Zea mays L.) as a solution to fertilizer shortages in Indonesia. The continuous use of inorganic fertilizers can degrade soil quality, making environmentally friendly alternatives, such as biofertilizers, necessary. The study observed the growth optimization of several corn varieties inoculated with AMF. The eight-month study was conducted in the Biology Laboratory at Cenderawasih University's Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences using a pot culture method with three varieties of maize: regular maize (RM), sweet corn (SC), and butter sweet corn (BSC). Parameters observed included plant height, leaf number, and relative growth rate based on dry weight. The results showed that AMF inoculation significantly increased corn plant height by 21.56%, leaf number by 18.14%, and the relative growth rate by 1,425% at six weeks after planting. Butter sweet corn and sweet corn responded better to AMF inoculation than regular corn. The best results occurred when butter sweet corn was given 15 g of AMF inoculum per polybag.

Abstract

Stingless bees are commonly found in Indonesia, either living naturally or managed in cultivation systems. The main factor determining the success of stingless bee farming is the availability and abundance of plants as food sources. This study aimed to determine the number and timing of foraging activities of stingless bees (Heterotrigona itama) for pollen, the influence of environmental factors on the foraging activities of H. itama for pollen, and the types of plants that have the potential to serve as pollen sources. The foraging activity of H. itama was directly observed from 06:00 to 18:00. The environmental parameters measured included temperature, humidity, and light intensity. The survey of potential pollen source plants was conducted around the managed colony boxes and within a 200-meter radius from the colony boxes. The results showed that H. itama foraging activity peaked at 11:00 (bees leaving the nest), 10:00 (bees returning to the nest without carrying pollen), and 11:00 (bees returning with pollen). Spearman correlation analysis indicated that pollen foraging activity was influenced by light intensity. The potential for pollen source plants around the study site was relatively abundant, with 37 plant species identified.

Abstract

Insects have a very important role in maintaining the balance of the forest ecosystem and supporting the continuity of life in the forest. The main roles of insects in the forest include as pollinators, predators, decomposers, pest controllers and as indicators of environmental health. However, there is no data regarding the diversity and ecological function of insects in the Isyo Hills Rhepang Muaif tourist forest. Insect sampling technique uses the scan sampling method. Insect diversity data is analyzed using the Shannon-Wiener species diversity index. Based on research conducted in the Isyo Hills Rhepang Muaif Tourism Forest, Nimbokrang District, Jayapura Regency, a total of 606 individual insects were found with 54 types of insects representing 8 different orders, namely: Order Lepidoptera (26 types= 48%), Orthoptera (7 types= 13%), Coleoptera (6 types= 11%), Hemiptera (6 types= 11%), Odonata (4 types= 7%), Hymenoptera (2 types = 4%), Diptera (2 types = 4%) and the Order Blattodea (1 type= 2%). The results of the analysis show that species diversity in each insect order is in the medium and low categories. The Shannon-Wiener index (H') value for each order ranges from 0–2.99. Insects obtained from sampling results fall into eight levels of important ecological roles (feeding groups/ functional groups/trophic guilds) in nature, namely pollinators, phytophagous, xylophagous, predators, omnivores, carnivores, granivores and detrivores

Abstract

Primates have various type of locomotion according to adaptation to their habitat. Orangutans, gorillas, and chimpanzees are primates belong to the same family, Hominidae. Despite their anatomical and physiological similarities, there are differences in adaptation and life behavior that cause differences in the distinctive anatomical structures of all three hominids. This research aims to study the anatomical characteristics of Bornean orangutans’ pelvic and thigh muscles associated with the function and daily behavior. This research was conducted by observing the morphology of the orangutan’s pelvic and thigh muscles, also observing the orangutans’ arboreal and terrestrial behavior through video observations. The results showed that the pelvic muscles and extensor muscles of the hind limb of the orangutans were less developed than in gorillas and chimpanzees. Orangutans have well-developed m. scansorius to compensate the absence of m. tensor fasciae latae. Musculus ischiofemoralis in orangutans has a unique structure because it is separated into a distinctive muscle. The absence of m. adductor minimus is associated with the orangutans’ standing posture that more open than in gorillas. The differences in the development of these muscles are due to the adaptation of the orangutans’ arboreal behavior to its habitat.

Abstract

This study aims to preserve the diversity of orchid species that are used as useful plants and have economic value. The methods used in this study are exploration, observation, species description. The technique used in sampling was carried out purposively when orchid species were found in the roaming area which was carried out randomly in an area of 10 hectares. It was revealed from the results of observations that 128 individuals were collected which were classified into 25 genera and 31 species were identified. The observed orchid habitus lives as epiphytic and terrestrial or lithophytic plants. Generally, species that live as epiphytes are more often found. Orchid habitats can be significantly distinguished in lowland tropical rainforests and swamp forests with humidity ranging from 80-85% and temperatures between 26-28% at night and 30-34% during the day. Topographic conditions are relatively flat to a slope of 45%. Vegetation cover is quite dense, but in some location, there are gaps in the canopy, providing opportunities for breakthroughs in sunlight intensity during the day. Conservation efforts are carried out on species that are often hunted and used as ornamental plants such as Bulbophyllum phalaenopsis, Coelogyne beccarii, Coelogyne asperata, Dendrobium antennatum, Dendrobium macrophyllum, Dendrovium shiraishii, Dendrobium spectabile, Grammatophyllum scriptum, Grammatophyllum speciosum and Pomatocalpa marsupiale. The Conservation Status of the collected species is generally categorized under IUCN Redlist as Data Deficiency (DD) and Least Concern (LC) clusters .

Abstract

This study was conducted on the agricultural land of Indigenous Papuan communities in Tanah Merah Village, Warmare District, Manokwari, where shifting cultivation is practiced in conjunction with a subsistence and semi-commercial farming system for upland rice (Oryza sativa). The research employed a descriptive method with a survey technique to determine the locations for composite soil sample collection in shifting cultivation fields planted with upland rice. The results showed that the soil in the study area has a clay texture with a yellowish-red to reddish-yellow color. The soil reaction (pH) is classified as acidic, slightly acidic, and neutral. Organic carbon content ranges from high to low. Total nitrogen content is classified as moderate in the upper soil layer and low in the lower soil layer across all land sections. Total phosphorus and available phosphorus contents are categorized as low to very low. Total potassium content is classified as moderate to low. Cation exchange capacity (CEC) and base saturation (BS) show varied values, leading to a low soil fertility status in the upper and middle land sections. In contrast, the lower land section has a moderate fertility status. The shifting cultivation system contributes to maintaining soil organic matter content. However, to improve land productivity, phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) fertilizers should be applied, along with soil conservation techniques such as terracing or ridging to reduce erosion risk and surface runoff.

Abstract

Acetogenins, a unique class of secondary metabolites primarily found in the Annonaceae family, exhibit remarkable pharmacological properties, particularly as potent cytotoxic and anticancer agents. This systematic review synthesizes recent advancements in acetogenin research, focusing on extraction methodologies, biological activities, and therapeutic applications. A structured literature search spanning 2010–2024 was conducted across PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, adhering to PRISMA guidelines. The findings highlight the efficacy of acetogenins in inhibiting cancer cell proliferation, particularly in breast, colorectal, and brain cancers, through mitochondrial inhibition and apoptosis induction. Recent innovations, including ultrasonic-assisted extraction and nanoparticle-based formulations, have significantly improved bioavailability and therapeutic outcomes. Despite these promising developments, challenges such as low solubility, potential neurotoxicity, and limited clinical validation persist. Future research should prioritize the optimization of drug delivery systems and in-depth clinical trials to establish acetogenins as next-generation natural anticancer agents
