Abstract

The maximum rate of carboxylation (Kcmax) and maximum rate of regeneration of Ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP) (controlled by the rate of electron transport, Jmax) arc two processes governing the photosynthetic capacity of plants. Both processes are affected by temperature. This paper examines how the response of these two photosynthetic capacities to temperature determines the temperature response curve of the CO2-assimilation rate for plants grown at different temperatures, by using the concept of the Farquhar €3 photosynthesis model. The goal is to use photosynthetic parameters from CO2 and light curves to predict the temperature dependence of the CO2-assimilation rate (A) of soybean and to estimate the preferred growth temperature. Analysis shows that the optimum temperature of the assimilation rate changes with the changing temperature dependence of carboxylation and regeneration of RuBP. Key words :  temperature dependence/soybean/modeling photosynthesis/preferred growth temperature.

Abstract

Soybean is an important food commodity after rice and corn in Indonesia. Until now soybean demand cannot be fulfilled by domestic production, although the chances of fulfillment can be attempted. One of the attempts to increase domestic production is soybean planting in acid dry land that is widely available in Indonesia. The research aimed to obtain soybean lines that are adaptive in acid dry land. A total of 10 soybean promising lines and two check varieties (Wilis and Tanggamus) were grown in acid dry land in Tanah Laut Regency, South Kalimantan Province, Indonesia. Experimental design used was randomized complete block design with four replications. The data were analyzed using analysis of variance and followed by Least Significant Different test. The results showed that the promising lines of SC5P2P3.5.4.1-5 and SC5P2P3.23.4.1-5 achieved production of 1.51 t/ha and 1.48 t/ha, respectively. These yields were higher than Wilis and Tanggamus varieties that reached 1.41 t/ha and 1.13 t/ha, respectively. These two promising lines had the potency to be developed in Tanah Laut Regency, South Kalimantan or other areaswith similar soil characteristics.

Abstract

The freshwater fish Beardless Barb Cyclocheilichthys apogon (Valenciennes, 1842) is a native species of Southeast Asia, including the western Indonesia area (Borneo, Sumatra, and Java). Previously, the species was found only in the mainland of Java Island. This paper provides the first record of C. apogon in the Lembung River, one of the major rivers in Madura Island, Indonesia, thereby extending the species distribution up to 150 km northeast from the place of earlier record. The specimens of C. apogon were characterized as follows: dorsal fin rays 12; anal fin rays 8–9; pectoral fin rays 17–18; lateral line scales 34–35. A detailed description of the morphological characters of the specimen is provided in this manuscript.

Abstract

Aquilaria spp produced agarwood as nonwood  forest production, and has high economic value. A. malaccensis is susceptible to white rot diseases and termites. On the other hand most of the community plantations are a mixed culture with rubber trees, oil palms and with high risk of contamination causing white root diseases. Besides that, vegetative propagation by cuttings, stumping or air layering are still very difficult with low percentage of growth. The objectives of this research were to analyze the best suitable micrograft type, changes of SDS-PAGE protein band patterns of compatible and incompatible micrografts with several combinations of gaharu planlets in in vitro condition, and histology of union area between rootstocks and scion. The results showed that wedge or V type was the best of the micrografs. MS medium with the addition of 3 mg/L IBA was the best medium for gaharu planlet growth after micrografting. Acclimatization was conducted in husk chacoal and top soil  (1:1) medium  and grown under plastic house of 70% shading with paranet. Compatible combination (Ac/Am) of micrografting showed that anatomy structure of union area is the same as anatomy structure of non micrograftd planlet. While incompatible (Gv/Am)  micrografting produced necrotic layer growth from pith and parenchymateous tissues of the wood in union area   along  the middle of radial  shoot. Recovery period of union area between stocks and scion is initiated by callus formation from the pith and parenchymatous tissues of the wood. Callus will differentiate into mature cells or tissue and become  combined  phloem and xylem vessels between rootstocks and scion. SDS-PAGE protein band pattern on compatible combination was the same as plants originated from seedlings. While, incompatible combination produced new protein bands with molecular weight around  21 and 30 kD. Key words : Agarwood, Aquilaria spp, micrografting in vitro, incompatible micrografting, SDS-PAGE protein, incompatible histology.

Abstract

A mannanolytic thermophilic bacterium (L-07) was isolated from palm oil shell after 2 days ofenrichment in liquid medium supplemented with 1% palm kernel meal as mannan source. Sequenceanalysis of 16S-rRNA indicated that L-07 was similar (98%) to  Geobacillus stearothermophilus, aspecies of thermophilic aerobic bacteria. We found that  G. stearothermophilus L-07 producedextracellular β-1,4-mannanases, but no β-manosidase and α-galactosidase activities. The growth of L-07reached its maximum (3.0 x 106 cell/ml) at 12-20 hours, while the highest  β-mannanase activity (0.52U/ml) was observed in culture medium after 36 hours of cultivation at 60oC. The medium containinglocust bean gum was the best for producing extracellular β-1,4-mannanases compared with kolang kaling,konjak, and palm kernel meal. SDS-PAGE and zymogram analysis demonstrated that crude mannanasecomplex of L-07 from locust bean gum containing medium comprised three active bands with molecularweight of 85, 73 and 50 kDa.   Keywords :  Extracellular enzyme/mannanase/Geobacillus stearothermophilus

Abstract

Conservation of degraded land in Indonesia requires maps of degraded land. The maps were established based on a model developed in 1998 by the then Indonesia Department of Forestry. The model has 2 weaknesses, i.e., 1. high level of uncertainty due to vector-based data used to build the thematic maps, and 2. parameter redundancy or duplication from the model. This research was aimed to build up a proposed model on levels of degraded land at Merawu Watershed using fully raster-based data supported with remote sensing and GIS techniques. Parameters analyzed were Slope, Erosivity (R), Erodibility (K), Slope Length and Steepness (LS), Cover and Management (C), Support Practice (P), and Percentage of Canopy Cover. These data were presented in fully raster format. The Management parameter was not explicitly used in this research because it was already represented by the C and P parameters. Five parameters were directly obtained using fully raster format, i.e., Slope, LS, C, P, and Percentage of Canopy Cover. The other 2 parameters went through spatial interpolation process before being presented as fully raster format. Correlation analysis among parameters was carried out. Parameters having high correlation coefficient (r ≥ 0.8) were excluded from the model to avoid redundancy. The proposed model only used parameters having low correlation coefficient. The research result showed that the determination of levels of degraded land was more accurate when using only erosion parameters, formulated as: Level of Degraded Land (LoD) ≈ Erosion ≈ R × K × LS × C × PL.

Abstract

Enzyme activity can be used as an indicator of peat decomposition in the oil palm rhizosphere of peatlands. Oil palm plantation management requires fertilization in the rhizosphere to provide nutrients for oil palm growth. The state of total nutrients in the rhizosphere can influence enzyme activity. This research aimed to study enzyme activity in relation to nutrient content in the oil palm rhizosphere of peatlands. Using the explorative method in Riau's tropical peatlands, an oil palm plantation was chosen as the main site, and a degraded forest as well as a shrubland were chosen as comparison sites. In the oil palm plantation, peat samples were taken from peat adhering to oil palm roots at depths of 0–25 and 25–50 cm and at distances of 0–1, 1–2, 2–3, and 3–4 m from the trees. In the degraded forest and shrubland, samples were taken from selected plant roots at depths of 0–25 and 25–50 cm. The triplicate peat samples were then composited for analysis of enzyme activity and total nutrient content. Results showed that enzyme activity (urease, phosphatase, β-glucosidase, and laccase) in the oil palm rhizosphere decreased as the distance from trees and the depth of the rhizosphere increased. The decline in enzyme activity was caused by low peat pH and increased water content as well as organic carbon content. Enzyme activity increased with increasing oil palm age and ash content. Total K and Zn contents showed no correlation with enzyme activities. However, total Ca and Mg contents showed a positive correlation only with β-glucosidase activity. Total Fe and Cu contents showed a significantly negative correlation with enzyme activities (urease, phosphatase, β-glucosidase, and laccase). Enzyme activity in the rhizosphere of the degraded forest and shrubland was mostly lower than in the oil palm rhizosphere.
