Abstract

El-Nagerabi SAF, Elshafie AE, Al-Hinai UA. 2014. The mycobiota associated with paper archives and their potential control. Nusantara Bioscience 6: 19-25. Historical collections kept in archives and libraries represent a cultural and artistic heritage of innumerable value. Recently in Oman, more than seventy thousand documents were collected from different countries and displayed as archives showed evident sign of mold contamination. The objectives of the present study were to screen these archives for mold invasion and a test for the effective control measure. For this, 102 samples were collected from documents of different sources and incubated on potato dextrose agar (PDA) at ambient temperature (25 â—‹C±2). The isolated fungi were identified microscopically and confirmed with DNA extraction, PCR and DNA sequencing. Twenty-two fungal species belonging to 11 genera were recovered. The genus Penicillium (46.8%) was the most prevalent, followed by Aspergillus (30.7%), Cladosporium (7%), Rhizopus (4%), and Chaetomium (3.5%) whereas the remaining 6 genera represent only 8%. Eleven species were previously reported from similar substrates, whereas 11 species and one genus are new records for the mycoflora of archives. Sodium hypochlorite at 0.3-5.2% completely inhibited the fungal growth of the 10 tested fungal isolates with minimum inhibition concentration at 0.7%. Fumigation of books with 0.7-5.2% sodium hypochlorite completely inhibited all fungi without evident damage of the documents or ink discoloration. Therefore, sodium hypochlorite can be recommended as effective and eco-friendly disinfectant for archives comparable to other hazardous chemicals.

Abstract. Abualtayef MT, Abd Rabou AN, Abu Foul AA, Ghabayen SM, Elsinwar HM. 2014. Microbial water quality of coastal recreational water in the Gaza Strip, Palestine. Nusantara Bioscience 6: 26-32. Wastewater disposal into the Mediterranean coast of the Gaza Strip has many negative effects, whether on the environment or on human health, thus microbiological analysis of seawater samples was carried out. The microbial analysis was confined on two types of fecal indicators (fecal coliform and fecal streptococci), in addition to a single type of bacteria (Pseudomonas). This study was conducted between the beginning of July 2012 to the mid of October 2012 over an area extended from the proposed Khan Younis fishing port to Gaza fishing port, with a length of about 23 km. The study area was divided into five zones. The samples were collected in two rounds: the first round included 75 samples that collected along the study area during the summer season. The second round included 19 samples that collected in the autumn season to compare it with their counterparts that have been collected in the summer season. Laboratory analysis showed the presence of contamination in many of these samples. The results also showed that the pollution was concentrated in and surrounding the mouths of wastewater outfalls. Depending on the microbial analyses, which have been collected in the first round, the fecal coliform appeared in 61% of the samples, while fecal streptococci appeared in all samples and pseudomonas appeared in 33% of the samples. The pollutants were widespread along the study area, which is the result mainly from wastewater discharge into the sea. A risk analysis was done for season variations using the second-moment method; in general, it was found that risk in both seasons was high especially in summer.

Abstract. Kumar R, Tapwal A, Pandey S, Raja-Rishi R, Mishra G, Giri K. 2014. Six unrecorded species of Russula (Russulales) from Nagaland, India and their nutrient composition. Nusantara Bioscience 6: 33-38. The young and matured carpophores of mushrooms were collected from the forests of Puliebzie, Zakhama, Pherma, Mankoi, Chungtia, and Tigit located in different districts of Nagaland, one of the north-eastern states of India. All the species were found associated with Pinus khasya, P. caribaea, P. patula, Cryptomeria japonica, Canarium resiniferum, Dipterocarpus macrocarpus, and Shorea assamica. The collected mushrooms were identified as Russula species on the basis of their macro and microscopic characteristics. The identified Russula species were also screened for their nutrient content. The protein and carbohydrate content was found to vary between 28.12 to 42.86, and 49.33 to 55%, respectively. These species [Russula aeruginea Lindblad; -Fr., R. alnetorum Romagnesi, R. brevipes Peck, R. fragrantissima Romagnesi, R. nobilis Velen. and R. ochroleuca (Pers.) Fr Gray.] are a new record from Nagaland state of India.

Abstract. Bakheta MA, Hussein MM. 2014. Uniconazole effect on endogenous hormones, proteins and proline contents of barley plants (Hordeum vulgare) under salinity stress (NaCl). Nusantara Bioscience 6: 39-44. Pot experiments were carried out during two growth seasons 2010/2011 under greenhouse conditions of the National Research Centre, Dokki, Cairo, Egypt to investigate the response of barley plants (Hordeum vulgare L) grown under salinity stress (2500 or 5000 ppm) to spraying with solutions of uniconazole at 150 or 200 ppm. The obtained results showed that irrigation with saline solutions caused increases in the amounts of abscisic acid (ABA), crude protein, total soluble-protein, and proline contents. The results showed that spraying barley plants grown under saline solutions with uniconazole increased endogenous hormone contents of ABA, cytokinins, crude protein, total soluble protein, and proline but caused decreases in the amounts of endogenous indole acetic acid (IAA) and gibberellic acid (GA3). High protection of abscisic acid in treating plants with uniconazole and under salt stress (interaction effect) increases proline, proteins and soluble protein which has been proposed to act as compatible solutes that adjust the osmotic potential in the cytoplasm. Thus, these biochemical characters can be used as a metabolic marker in relation to salinity stress.

Abstract. Mishra G, Kumar N, Giri K, Pandey S, Kumar R. 2014. Effect of fungicides and bioagents on number of microorganisms in soil and yield of soybean (Glycine max). Nusantara Bioscience 6: 45-48. In field experiments, the effect of selected fungicides and bioagents on number of soil microorganisms and yield of soybean (Glycine max L. Merill) was investigated. The results showed that some of the crop protections preparations applied in the experiment (as seed dressing) increased the populations of the examined microorganisms after the harvest of crops. Maximum counts of bacteria were recorded with Thiamethoxam at 3 g kg-1 while Pseudomonas at 3 g kg-1 showed the highest population of fungi, Actinomycetes, Bradyrhizobium japonicum, PSB and Pseudomonas. The highest straw and grain yields of 3241.6 and 1439.4 kg ha-1, respectively, were recorded with Pseudomonas at 3 g kg-1.

Abstract. Wahba HE, Motawe HM, Ibrahim AY. 2014. Effect of nitrogen fertilizers on productivity of Urtica pilulifera plant. Nusantara Bioscience 6: 49-56. Urtica pilulifera L. have been known for a long time as a medicinal plant for treatments of many diseases, but its agricultural studies and chemical composition did not have enough researches. Two field experiments were carried out at the experimental farm of Faculty of Agriculture, Cairo University during two successive seasons 2009 and 2010, to study the effect of nitrogen dressing application (Urea, ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulfate) at different doses (0, 20, 40 and 60 N units/fed.) on growth, yield parameters and chemical composition of Urtica pilulifera plants. The results showed that the application of all nitrogen forms significantly increased the determined parameters as compared to untreated plants and the best treatment was ammonium sulfate at 60 N unit to increase quantitative and qualitative plant production.

Abstract

Abstract. Priatni S. 2014. Review: Potential production of carotenoids from Neurospora. Nusantara Bioscience 6: 63-68. Carotenoids are abundant and widely distributed in plants, animals, and microorganisms. Commercial use of carotenoids competes between microorganisms and synthetic manufacture. Carotenoids production can be increased by improving the efficiency of carotenoid synthesis in microbes. Some of the cultural and environmental stimulants are positively affecting the carotenoid content of carotenogenic strains such as Neurospora. Neurospora is a fungus that exhibits the formation of spores and conidia, the part of the cell for carotenoids biosynthesis. The Indonesian traditional fermented food, red peanut cake or oncom, especially in West Java, is produced from legume residues of Neurospora sp. This fungus has been isolated and identified as Neurospora intermedia. In order to apply this pigment for food and cosmetic colorants, encapsulation techniques of carotenoids have been developed to improve its solubility and stability.

Abstract. Setyawan AD, Ulumuddin YI, Ragavan P. 2014. Mangrove hybrid of Rhizophora and its parental species in Indo-Malayan region. Nusantara Bioscience 6: 69-81. There was two putative hybrid species of mangrove in the Indo-Malayan region, namely Rhizophora x annamalayana Kathir. and R. x lamarckii Montrouz. Rhizophora x annamalayana is most recently known as a natural hybrid between R. apiculata and R. mucronata. At first, this plant is considered as R. x lamarckii, a well-known mangrove hybrid between R. apiculata and R. stylosa. Since R. stylosa is not distributed in India and Sri Lanka, the location where this species was first discovered, the name of the new hybrid species between R. apiculata and R. mucronata was corrected. Meanwhile, R. x lamarckii has long been known and is always found in habitat where its parents grew. Besides, the cross-breeding of R. mucronata and R. stylosa has never been reported. Both are sibling species that have identical morphological characteristics, thus the hybrid cross-bred species was not observed visually and can only be distinguished through genetic studies.

Abstract. Sukiman, Faturrahman, Rohyani IS, Ahyadi H. 2014. Growth of seaweed Eucheuma cottonii in multi trophic sea farming systems at Gerupuk Bay, Central Lombok, Indonesia. Nusantara Bioscience 6: 82-85. Eucheuma cottonii is a seaweed commodity that has a high economic value because it contains compounds used as raw materials for industries. Various methods of seaweed farming have been developed, one of which is a system of cultivation Multi Trophic Sea Farming. This study aimed to analyze the growth of E. cottonii by observing the production of biomass in four trophic combinations in the system Multi Trophic Sea Farming. The study was conducted in the area of the marine aquaculture Gerupuk bay, Central Lombok, Indonesia. Experiments were performed on four plots cages with trophic combination treatment as follows: K1 (E. cottonii-lobster-abalone), K2 (E. cottonii-abalone-red carp), K3 (E. cottonii-abalone-grouper), and K4 (E. cottonii-abalone-pomfret fish). Seedling of E. cottonii weighing 50 g was tied to a rope and placed at a depth of 5 cm, 50 cm, 100 cm, and 150 cm. Measurement of biomass production was done every ten days until the thirtieth day. The highest biomass production of E. cottonii was obtained in K3 trophic combination (E. cottonii-abalone-grouper fish) with a depth of seedlings of 5 cm. The combination of K3 trophic is recommended for cultivation of seaweed in the MTSF system.

Abstract. Setyawan AD, Wiryanto, Suranto, Bermawie N. 2014. Variation in isozymic pattern of germplasm from three of ginger (Zingiber officinale) varieties. Nusantara Bioscience 6: 86-93. Ginger (Zingiber officinale Rosc.) has long been as spices, flavoring agent and raw material for herbal medicines. In Indonesia, there were three varieties based on color and size of the rhizome, i.e. gajah (big-white ginger), merah (red ginger), and emprit (small-white ginger). This research was conducted to find out: (i) isozymic pattern of three ginger varieties, and (ii) phylogenetic relationship of those three varieties. The plant materials were gathered from Wonogiri, Surakarta and Kulonprogo, Yogyakarta. Two enzyme systems, namely esterase (EST) and peroxidase (PER, PRX) were used in this study. The relationship among ginger varieties was determined by UPGMA. The result indicated that EST showed two bands (i.e. Rf 0.04 and 0.10), and PRX showed six bands (i.e. Rf 0.04, 0.05, 0.09, 0.10, 0.11, and 0.15). Peroxidase produces more numerous and more diverse isozymic bands than esterase, resulting in a more complex relationship. The data used to compile dendrogram affect the grouping; the more data used, the more obvious clustering of accessions in a population. Dendrogam generated from esterase and peroxidase banding patterns produced distinct clusters based on varieties and location.
