BIODIVERS is a bio-science general audience journal launched in December 2021 by the Southeast Asian Ministers of Education Organization Regional Centre for Tropical Biology (SEAMEO BIOTROP). As a scientific publication, it is designed to increase awareness and literacy on issues related to saving Tropical Biodiversity from the “Mountain to the Ocean” (MOTO). This magazine is also a medium for publication and promotion of research results, capacity building for SEAMEO BIOTROP researchers, scientists and other writers, nationally and internationally. BIODIVERS is a bi-annual publication with International Standard Serial Number (ISSN) and is published every January and July. The scope of BIODIVERS includes the following (1) Ecosystem Restoration and Conservation, (2) Sustainable Use of Biodiversity, Bioenergy, Biotechnology, Food Security, and (3) Ecosystem Resilience in the face of global climate change.

Abstract

Agricultural waste poses serious environmental challenges while offering untapped opportunities for bio-based innovation. This aim study is to evaluate an integrated process for converting agricultural residues (rice husks, corn cobs, and sugarcane bagasse) into sustainable bio-based composites. We applied pyrolysis (450–500 °C), biocomposite synthesis, and green-chemistry techniques to produce and characterize novel biomass-derived materials. The resulting composites exhibited high thermal stability (≈280 °C) and tensile strength (15–28 MPa), highlighting their potential as alternatives to petroleum-based plastics. This approach also reduced open burning and carbon emissions by about 35%, supporting biodiversity, bioenergy development, and SDG 12 (responsible consumption and production). These findings demonstrate a viable pathway for valorizing agricultural waste in a circular bio-based economy.

Abstract

Reclamation and landfilling activities within protected zones pose serious threats to ecosystem sustainability by altering natural land–water interactions and violating the essential functions of Singkarak Lake’s riparian buffer. This study aims to map the extent of reclamation, examine legal violations related to spatial and environmental permits, and assess ecological and economic losses. A mixed-methods approach was used, including geospatial analysis, normative legal review, and ecocentric valuation of environmental damage. Results show that 2,976 m² of land was illegally reclaimed within the protected lake boundary. Overlay with the regional spatial plan confirms non-compliance with zoning regulations and the absence of required permits. The total estimated loss amounts to Rp 3,383,291,152, largely driven by disrupted hydrological functions and reduced land utility.

Abstract

Deep within the tropical forests of Southeast Asia, the Asian forest tortoise (Manouria emys) moves with the quiet memory of millions of years. Yet today, its path is threatened by deforestation, illegal trade, and a warming climate. In Bengkulu, Indonesia, the University of Bengkulu’s ex-situ program has successfully increased the survival and breeding success of rescued tortoises, providing controlled habitats where health, behavior, and reproduction can be monitored. Supported by collaboration with the University of North Carolina Greensboro, the program rehabilitates confiscated individuals and prepares them for long-term population recovery. Beyond protecting a species, this initiative transforms conservation into education, where the tortoise becomes a living teacher of patience, empathy, and coexistence.

Abstract

Jakarta’s urban green spaces are more than city parks. They are small ecosystems alive with pollinators that keep urban nature functioning. To understand how vegetation and human activity influence butterfly diversity, this study surveyed five parks across the city using standardized observation methods, namely the Pollard Walk and Point Count. A total of 157 butterflies representing 22 species were recorded, with Eurema sp. appearing most frequently. Parks with lush, layered vegetation like Penjaringan Urban Forest Park hosted the most species, while heavily urbanized areas had fewer. The findings reveal that preserving diverse plants and reducing disturbance can make cities more resilient to climate change, one butterfly at a time.
Comparative Review of Bioinformatics and Wheat Protoplast Assays for Effector Identification in Pathogenic Fungi Rosa, Annisa Amelia

Abstract

Fungal effectors are key pathogenicity factors, but their identification in wheat pathogens is challenging due to lack of conserved motifs and rapid evolution. This review compares two complementary approaches for effector discovery: bioinformatics pipelines for large-scale in silico prediction and wheat protoplast assays for functional validation in a homologous host system. We analyze the strengths, limitations, and complementarity of each method, and propose an integrated, iterative workflow that sequentially leverages computational prediction and experimental screening. This synergistic strategy accelerates the accurate identification of effectors and their cognate resistance genes, providing a critical foundation for breeding durable disease-resistant wheat varieties and enhancing global food security.
