Abstract

Background. The fig plant is one of the plantation commodities that experiences a decline in production every year. The cause of the decline in fig production is the low multiplication of fig plants due to less-than-optimal plant cultivation. Fig plants have high economic value, where market demand is increasing, but production of fig plants is decreasing. Therefore, efforts are needed to increase productivity, one of which is the use of in vitro propagation techniques with the addition of NAA and Kinetin growth regulators. Aims. This research aims to investigate the growth response to the combination of Naphthalene Acetic Acid (NAA) and Kinetin concentrations on the growth of fig (Ficus carica L.), specifically the Green Jordan variety, in vitro. Methods. This experiment was carried out at the Tissue Culture Laboratory of the Regional Technical Implementation Unit, Horticulture Seed Center, Hegarmanah, Jatinangor District, Sumedang Regency, West Java. Conducted from March to May 2024, the experiment employed a Simple Randomized Environmental Design (SRE) consisting of 5 treatment combinations, repeated 4 times, resulting in 20 experimental units. A = (0 mg L-1 NAA + 4 mg L-1 Kinetin ), B = (0.5 mg L-1 NAA +3 mg L-1 Kinetin ), C = 1 mg L-1 NAA +2 mg L-1 Kinetin, D = (1.5 mg L-1 NAA + 1 mg L-1 Kinetin ), E = (2 mg L-1 NAA + 0 mg L-1 Kinetin ), Observational data were analyzed using the F test and if there is an effect followed by Duncan's Multiple Range Test at the 5% level. Conclusion. The results showed that the combination concentration (4 mg L-1 Kinetin) had a better effect on the percentage of leaves.

Abstract

Background. Wood vinegar is a by-product of the pyrolysis of biomass such as wood. Wood vinegar is also known as liquid smoke/pyroligneous acid. Wood vinegar is formed from the incomplete combustion of lignocellulosic materials. Wood vinegar produces compounds that have antimicrobial, antibacterial, and antioxidant effects. Aims. This study aimed to determine the effect of wood vinegar and ecoenzyme application on the vegetative growth of Servo tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) plants. Methods. The study used a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with 9 treatment combinations of wood vinegar (0, 10, and 15 mL/L water) and ecoenzyme (0, 10, and 15 mL/L water) and 3 replicates. The parameters observed included plant height and number of leaves at 10, 17, 27, 37, and 47 days after planting (DAP). The data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and followed by Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at a 5% level. Result. The results showed that the application of a combination of wood vinegar and ecoenzyme had a very significant effect on the vegetative growth of tomato plants at all observation ages (p < 0.05). The best treatment was P8 (15 mL/L wood vinegar + 15 mL/L ecoenzyme), with the highest average number of leaves (114.67) and plant height (66.83 cm) at 47 DAP. The combination of these two materials worked synergistically to increase nutrient availability, enhance soil microbial activity, and stimulate the production of natural growth hormones (auxin and cytokinin). Conclusion. Meanwhile, the medium concentration at P6 (10 mL/L wood vinegar + 15 mL/L ecoenzyme) also showed a significant increase in leaf number and plant height compared to the control. Implementation. The use of a combination of wood vinegar and an ecoenzyme has been proven to optimally enhance the vegetative growth of Servo tomato plants. It can serve as a potential environmentally friendly organic biostimulant to replace chemical fertilizers.

Abstract

Background. Identifying bat species based on morphological characteristics often faces challenges due to character overlap among species, especially within cryptic species groups. Cynopterus brachyotis is one of the fruit bats with high genetic diversity but relatively uniform morphology. Aims. Therefore, a molecular approach is needed to support accurate species confirmation. Under the HETI Research Grant of Innovation and Collaboration Batch 3- II Year 2025, this study aims to obtain genomic DNA from C. brachyotis bats caught at the Lampung Disease Investigation Center as the initial step of molecular species confirmation. Methods. Samples were obtained by taking oral swabs on bat individuals caught using mist nets. DNA extraction is performed using silica membrane-based methods with commercial kits. Quantitative evaluation of DNA was performed using a Qubit Fluorometer, while qualitative evaluation was performed by agarose gel electrophoresis. Conclusion. The results showed that the DNA concentration was in the low range (0.1–0.7 ng/μL), with a DNA band appearing very thin on electrophoresis. Implementation. Nevertheless, the quantification results confirm that DNA was successfully extracted and remains suitable for advanced molecular analysis, with optimization at the DNA amplification stage.
