Abstract

Organic waste can be utilized to become ecoenyme. Ecoenzyme is the result of organic waste baskets such as kitchen waste which are not valuable into environmentally friendly enzymes that are very useful. Ecoenzyme is a complex solution produced by a basket of fresh organic waste (fresh fruits and vegetables), brown sugar or molasses and water. Ecoenzymes are organic compounds. The liquid produced by heating ecoenzyme can be used as a disinfectant and hand sanitizer, in the health sector ecoenzyme can be used as an infection and allergy reliever in children and to heal wounds. Apart from the liquid which has many benefits, the dregs resulting from cooling ecoenzyme can also be used in agriculture as organic fertilizer. At this time the agricultural sector still uses a lot of inorganic fertilizers (chemical fertilizers), excessive application of inorganic fertilizers can cause physical, chemical and biological damage to the soil. Will have an impact on plant metabolism. The use of ecoenzyme waste can be an environmentally friendly fertilizer solution. The research method used was descriptive research with the aim of obtaining total protein content from ecoenzyme waste. The method used is the Warburgh Christian method. The result of measuring the total protein content of dry ecoenzyme dregs was 0.050 mg/ml. Protein contains amino acids that can be used for plant growth (structural function) and enzymes (metabolic function). This amino acid can increase the amount of chlorophyll in plants, increase photosynthetic activity, and promote root growth. Amino acids can also regulate stomata optimally by controlling plant transpiration and increasing the reduction of carbon dioxide which will be converted into carbohydrates.

Abstract

Butterflies are part of biodiversity that is important to be preserved because the presence of butterflies in an ecosystem, especially forests, is very important, both as part of the food chain, pollinators, and food for other animals. This study aims to analyze the species diversity and abundance of butterflies (Lepidoptera) in the habitat of Tahawa Village Forest Area, Pulang Pisau Regency. The research method used an exploratory survey method with a sweeping technique following a transect line and then calculated Shannon-Wiener Diversity Index (H'), Evenness Index (E), and Species Richness Index (R1). Butterflies found in the Tahawa Village Forest Area consisted of 6 families divided into 15 species with a total of 63 individuals. The most species found came from the Pieridae family and the least from the Geometridae family. The Diversity Index (H') obtained a value of 2.38, classified as moderate diversity. The Evenness Index (E) is in the high category with 0.88, while the Richness Index (R1) is at 3.38 which is still classified as low.

Abstract

Abstrak Cuaca ekstrem di Indonesia menyebabkan terjadinya fenomena krisis air di beberapa daerah, salah satunya Gunungkidul. Daerah Tangkapan Air (DTA) Wonosadi Kabupaten Gunungkidul merupakan kawasan DTA yang luas dan mampu menyimpan air. Konservasi DTA perlu dilakukan untuk menjamin ketersediaan air. Keberadaan vegetasi tumbuhan yang ada di DTA memberi pengaruh besar terhadap ketersediaan air dan nutrien di tanah, karena vegetasi memegang peran penting dalam siklus hidrologi. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui peranan ekofisiologis dalam mengkonservasi air dalam proses transpirasi. Penelitian dilaksanakan selama lima bulan di DTA Wonosadi Kabupaten Gunungkidul dan Laboratorium Ekologi Fakultas Biologi Universitas Gadjah Mada. Sampel tumbuhan diperoleh melalui analisis vegetasi berdasarkan tiga jenis kerapatan vegetasi (tinggi, sedang, dan rendah). Pengukuran laju transpirasi dilakukan pada tiga spesies dominan di DTA Wonosadi dengan menggunakan kertas Kobalt klorida. Tiga spesies dominan yang diperoleh yaitu yaitu Swietenia macrophylla King., Tectona grandis L., dan Acacia auriculiformis A.Cunn. Ex Benth. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Tectona grandis L., merupakan spesies yang paling berpengaruh besar terhadap ketersedian air dengan laju transpirasi 181.00 detik. Tingkat transpirasi tumbuhan juga dipengaruhi oleh faktor abiotik yaitu pH tanah, suhu tanah, suhu udara, kelembapan tanah, kelembapan udara dan intensitas cahaya. Hasil analisis faktor lingkungan menunjukkan bahwa masing-masing kelas kerapatan vegetasi menunjukkan perbedaan hasil di tiap parameter lingkungan. Area kerapatan tinggi memiliki suhu udara dan kelembapan yang tinggi dibanding kelas lainnya. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa semakin rapat vegetasi maka semakin tinggi kelembapan di area tersebut. Abstract Extreme weather in Indonesia has caused water crisis in several regions, including Gunungkidul. Wonosadi Catchment Area (DTA) of Gunungkidul Regency is a large catchment area that capabled of storing water. Conservation of the catchment area are needed to ensure the availability of water. The existence of plant vegetation in the catchment area has a major influence on the availability of water and nutrients in the soil, because vegetation plays an important role in the hydrological cycle. This study was conducted to determine the role of ecophysiology in conserving water in the transpiration process. The study was conducted for five months at Wonosadi DTA, Gunungkidul Regency and Ecology Laboratory, Faculty of Biology, Gadjah Mada University. Plant samples were obtained through vegetation analysis based on three types of vegetation density (high, medium, and low). Transpiration rate measurements were conducted on the three dominant species in Wonosadi DTA using Cobalt chloride paper. The three dominant species obtained were Swietenia macrophylla King., Tectona grandis L., and Acacia auriculiformis A.Cunn. Ex Benth. The results showed that Tectona grandis L. has the greatest effect on water availability with a transpiration rate of 181.00 seconds. Plant transpiration rate is also influenced by abiotic factors, namely soil pH, soil temperature, air temperature, soil moisture, air humidity, and light intensity. Analysis of environmental factors showed that each vegetation density class shows different results in each environmental parameter. High-density areas have higher air temperature and humidity than other classes. It showed that the denser of vegetation, the higher humidity in the area.

Abstract

One of the islands in Indonesia that is inhabited by sponges of various types is the Spermonde Archipelago, which is located in the southern part of the Makassar Strait. Sponge X. testudinaria is one of the sponges that dominates the Spermonde Islands. The difference in environmental conditions where the sponge lives causes the sponge X. testudinaria to have a different adaptation mechanism in producing secondary metabolites as self defense. Research on the of compounds from n-hexane extract sponge X. testudinaria has been carried out using phytochemical tests. Extraction begins with maceration using n-hexane solvent then the solvent is moved using an evaporator. Identification of extract functional groups using IR spectra. The results of the phytochemical screening indicated the presence of alkaloids and steroids which were supported by IR spectrum data indicating the presence of aliphatic NH, C=O and CH groups.

Abstract

Indonesia black rice is a potential crop which consider to be develop as functional food because of high nutritional values. However, some agronomical traits, such as high culm and long harvesting time need to be improved for high productivity. Genetic engineering based on protoplast system is one of tools that can be used for improving black rice agronomical traits. The purpose of this study was to establish an efficient method for obtaining protoplasts, and to get information on whether the PEG-mediated transformation method can be carried out on black rice ‘Cempo Ireng’ using GFP transient expression as a marker. To get protoplast culture, we used callus and seedling as main explants. The results showed that 15th days seedling was the best explant source to get protoplast compare to callus. The combination of 1,5% macerozyme and 3% celulase was optimum to obtain the viable protoplasts. Transient expression of GFP can be done using PEG-mediated protoplast transformation in 30% concentration of PEG.
