Abstract

Lichens are symbiotic organisms between fungi and algae. In Indonesia, lichen inventory research is very limited. Several Lichen families have entered critical levels such as Lobariaceae. The purpose of this study was to: record and collect the Lobariaceae family as a rare lichen, analyze population data of the Lobariaceae family, growth percentage and development of Lobariaceae family transplants. This research method used exploration with calculations based on the surface area of ​​tree trunks, the number and coverage of thallus, and thallus coverage per square meter for each tree. The results of this study found 340 Pseudocyphellaria thallus consisting of Pseudocyphellaria sp. P. aurata, P. crocata and P. argyracea. During one year of Pseudocyphellaria transplantation, there was no growth in terms of increasing thallus cover. The development that occurred was that the transplant was able to attach well to the substrate. It is estimated that Pseudocyphellaria thallus takes longer to adapt well to the substrate to grow and develop. The conclusion of this study is that the transplanted lichen showed satisfactory growth, which indicates that this method can be used for the conservation of threatened lichen species.

Abstract

Indonesia has quite a variety of endemic animals. One of Indonesia's endemic animals is the Javan bull (Bos javanicus javanicus). This animal comes from the island of Java and is now a protected animal. The decline in the Javan bull population in Indonesia is caused by illegal hunting, habitat destruction and exploitation. Conservation efforts are needed to protect and preserve the Javan bull. There is ex-situ conservation as a place to preserve various types of animals with a modern concept. Ragunan Wildlife Park is an ex-situ conservation area created in a way that matches its natural habitat. The aim of this research is to describe the daily behavior of Javan bulls and differences in the percentage of behavior of each individual Javan bull (Bos javanicus javanicus) in the Ragunan Wildlife Park ex-situ captivity. This research was carried out with a total of 12 days of observation on 4 Javan bulls, namely 2 males and 2 females. Observations were divided into 2 sessions. The morning session was held at 08.00-11.00 WIB and the afternoon session was held at 13.00-15.00 WIB using the focal animal sampling method. The parameters measured are temperature and humidity. Based on the results of research that has been carried out, the behaviors of Javan bulls that emerge are eating, drinking, ruminating, moving, resting, sleeping, grooming, urinating, defecating and social behavior. The highest behavior of the Javan bull (Bejo) was social behavior at 32.56% and the lowest was defecation behavior at 0.44%. The dominant behavior of Javan bulls (Raju) is resting behavior at 39.56% and the lowest is urination behavior at 0.22%. The highest behavior of the Javan bull (Amy) was eating behavior at 35.00% and the lowest was drinking and defecation behavior at 0.33%. The highest behavior of the Javan bull (Susi) was eating behavior at 49.44% and the lowest was sleeping behavior at 0.00%.

Abstract

Tissue culture techniques, in general, have four stages, which include induction, multiplication, root formation, and acclimatization. The acclimatization stage is the most critical stage that plants go through after coming out of the culture bottle, and different climatic conditions exist in the greenhouse and the field. Environmental conditions such as light intensity and planting media greatly affect the growth of kepok banana seedlings during the acclimatization period. This research was conducted at the UPTD Balai Induk Hortikultura Gedung Johor Medan from June to August 2024. The research uses a Split Plot Design with two factors. The first factor is the type of cover: a 12% UV plastic cover and a 75% shade net. The second factor consists of three levels of treatment of the combination of planting media, namely soil + vermicompost (2:1), soil + cocopeat (2:1), and soil + Baked husk (2:1). 12% UV plastic produces more volume and root length than 75% shade nets. The chlorophyll a level was higher than that of chlorophyll b in all treatment interactions except in the 12% UV plastic cover treatment and the combination of soil + vermicompost planting media. Nitrogen uptake with 12% UV plastic enclosure treatment was 31.94% higher than 75% shade net. The implication of this finding is the potential to utilize vermicompost as a planting media mixture at the acclimatization stage of kepok banana.

Abstract

Dramaga Protected Forest is a good habitat for various fauna, including insects. Insects have a positive role as pollinators, decomposers, predators and environmental bioindicators, and have a negative impact as pests. Insects have a wide habitat distribution, such as the surface of the ground or underground, fresh water, air, mud, remains of organisms, and parasites on various plants and animals. The presence of insects can be influenced by environmental conditions as their habitat. Therefore, this study aims to determine the diversity of insects in the Dramaga Protected Forest. The study was conducted in the Dramaga Protected Forest with four research methods, namely Pitfall Trap, Sweep Net, Yellow Sticky Trap and Active Searching. Insect catch data were analyzed for diversity index, evenness index and dominance index. The results of this study were a total of 1359 insect individuals consisting of 14 families. The diversity of insects with the four research methods was relatively low because there were dominant families, namely Formicidae, Acrididae, Blattelidae and Cicadellidae. It can be concluded that the determination of insect diversity is more effective using the Sweep Net method. The results of abiotic measurements at the research location showed optimal conditions so that the Dramaga Protected Forest has a good habitat for insect life.

Abstract

One of the major challenges in biology education is students’ limited understanding of abstract and interconnected concepts, particularly in the topic of the immune system, which requires higher order thinking skills. Teacher centered learning and the limited availability of engaging instructional materials often make it difficult for students to recognize the relationships among concepts within a system as a whole. Therefore, innovative learning media are needed to develop students’ systemic thinking skills. This study aims to develop a problem based e-module to enhance students’ systemic thinking abilities on the immune system material. The research employed an R&D approach using the ADDIE model. In the analysis stage, needs assessment was conducted to examine learners’ needs, curriculum requirements, and learning characteristics. The design stage produced an e-module prototype equipped with interactive components such as videos and QR codes. The development stage involved creating the e-module and carrying out validation by content experts, media experts, and language experts. In this study, the development process was limited to the development stage because the primary focus was to produce a learning medium that was judged to be feasible by experts. The validation results indicated that the content experts assessed the e-module as highly feasible for use. The media expert also concluded that the graphical design, content presentation, and language use were categorized as highly feasible. Although media validation was conducted only once, several suggestions for improvement were provided, including adding game based quizzes, embedding hyperlinks to support QR code features, and providing clearer instructions for accessing the embedded learning videos. It can be concluded that the developed e-module is highly feasible for classroom use and is recommended for broader implementation in biology learning.

Abstract

The National Education Goals play an important role in realizing the nation’s ideals through various learning resources and media accessible to students in schools. Strong learning motivation serves as a fundamental basis for developing students’ potential to become faithful, morally upright, and responsible individuals. One way to enhance learning motivation is by providing engaging learning media, such as glossaries that help students better understand scientific terms.  This study aims to examine the effect of illustrated glossaries on students’ learning motivation in the topic of the plant world. A quasi experimental method with a pretest-posttest control group design was employed. Two classes participated in the study: an experimental group that used illustrated glossaries to assist in understanding scientific terms and a control group that did not use any glossary, both using the same biology textbook. Data were collected using a learning motivation questionnaire measuring eight indicators, including perseverance, persistence, interest, independent work, boredom with routine tasks, maintaining opinions, determination, and problem solving enthusiasm. The results indicate that the use of illustrated glossaries significantly increased students’ learning motivation compared to those who did not use them. Motivation indicators in the experimental group ranged from high to very high categories. In conclusion, illustrated glossaries effectively enhance students’ learning motivation in plant world material. It is recommended that illustrated glossaries be implemented across various educational levels and fields to support accurate and consistent scientific terminology, helping students keep pace with scientific advancements.

Abstract

Sacha inchi (Plukenetia volubilis) is an ancestral plant native to the Amazon rainforest that has been adopted as a food source due to its high nutritional value, which has gradually been recognized for its potential health benefits for humans. One of its benefits is as a natural agent for lowering uric acid levels, due to its antioxidant content and active compounds such as flavonoids, which function as anti-inflammatory and cell protective agents. Although P. volubilis seeds have been extensively studied, the potential of its leaves as an alternative treatment for hyperuricemia remains largely unexplored. This study aims to determine the effect of sacha inchi (P. volubilis) leaf extract at different doses 0.35 mL/mouse, 0.40 mL/mouse, and 0.45 mL/mouse on reducing uric acid levels in mice (Mus musculus) and to identify the most effective dose for reducing uric acid levels in mice. This study used 24 male mice aged 3–4 months with a body weight not exceeding 25 g. The study design used a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with four treatments and six replicates. The treatments consisted of control (without extract), doses of 0.35 mL, 0.40 mL, and 0.45 mL of P. volubilis leaf extract. The P. volubilis leaf extract was administered orally via a mouth tube. The extract was obtained from the leaves of the P. volubilis using the maceration method. The mice were first induced with hyperuricemia using 1 mL of chicken liver juice per mouse. Uric acid levels were measured before and after treatment using a GCU test strip. Data were analyzed using a one way ANOVA test followed by a Duncan test at a significance level of 5%. The results showed significant differences between treatments (p = 0.001 < 0.05). The 0.45 mL dose was the most effective in lowering uric acid levels, from an average of 4.7 mg/dL to 3.4 mg/dL, and was significantly different from other doses based on Duncan's test. This study concluded that sacha inchi leaf extract has the potential to be used as a natural alternative for lowering blood uric acid levels.
