Abstract

In aquaculture of an irrigation, the use of cypermethrin-based pesticide can harm nile tilapia which cultured within and its impact on humans who consume the fish. Thus it is necessary to study to determine the threshold of this cypermethrin-based pesticide. Determining the thresholds was using the test of LC50 - 96 hours (Lethal Concentration 50-96 hour) which tested tilapia that dead by 50%, which can be used as a benchmark threshold for cypermethrin-based pesticide. Test of LC50 - 96 hours consist of preliminary test and advanced test. Lethal Concentration 50 (LC50 - 96 hours) of cypermethrin-based pesticide towards nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is 0.082 ppm. At these doses, tilapia death reached 50%. This concentration is expressed as a threshold usage of cypermethrin-based pesticide on the environment around the aquaculture of tilapia. Keywords: Cypermehrin-based pesticide, LC5096 hour, Nile tilapia.

Abstract

Porang is one species member of the genus Amorphophallus. In Indonesia, Porang is cultivated extensively because it has a high economic value. There is three seeded material available for planting. One of seeded material is bulbil. Bulbil is a vegetative reproductive organ of Porang plants which is located in the branch of the leaf. Bulbil has 3 - 4 months dormancy period. The dormancy period will end with shoot growth. Morphologically, there can be found a rough structure in the form of bulges in bulbil. The bulge is spread throughout the bulbil surface and is a growing area of shoots. Shoots on bulbil will grow through the bulge and only grow on the adaxial part, contrary shoots do not grow from the abaxial part. This study aims to compare the anatomy of shoot apical meristem (SAM) in the adaxial and abaxial parts of bulbil at the end of the dormancy period, ie 100 days after harvest (DAH), 110 DAH, 120 DAH, and 130 DAH. Anatomical observations were carried out by making semi-permanent preparations. The results showed that the anatomy of the adaxial and abaxial parts of bulbil Porang had differences in the development of SAM, leaf primordia, primary thickening meristem (PTM) and procambium.Keywords: Anatomy, Bulbil Porang, Dormancy, Shoot Apical Meristem.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh suplemen L-arginin subakut peroral pada tikus diabetes-streptozotosin terhadap respons kontraksi aorta melalui mekanisme pencegahan peningkatan stress oksidatif. L-arginine diberikan selama 8 minggu pada tikus diabetes dengan dosis 10, 100 dan 1000 mg.kg-1 BB.hari-1. Parameter yang diukur adalah MDA-plasma untuk menilai oksidatif stress dan teknik bioassay dengan isolasi organ terpisah aorta ring untuk menilai respons reseptor adrenergik-a1 di otot polos aorta terhadap fenilefrin (PE). Dari respons kontraksi aorta dapat diketahui nilai Emaks dan pD2 PE. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemberian L-arginin 100, 1000 mg.kg-1 BB.hari-1 pada tikus diabetes dapat mencegah peningkatan MDA-plasma (p<0.001). Pemberian L-arginin dosis 100, 1000 mg.kg-1 BB.hari-1 dapat mencegah peningkatan respons kontraksi aorta terhadap PE melalui pencegahan peningkatan Emaks (p<0.000) dan menurunkan pD2 pada dosis 1000 mg.kg-1 BB.hari-1 (p<0.001). Hasil Jalur Hubungan menunjukkan pencegahan peningkatan Emaks melalui jalur pencegahan peningkatan MDA (p<0.012) dan penurunan pD2 melalui jalur langsung (p<0.016). Berdasarkan haasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa pemberian suplemen L-arginin pada tikus diabetes dapat mencegah peningkatan respons kontraksi aorta terhadap PE dengan cara: (1) mencegah peningkatan Emaks melalui pencegahan peningkatan MDA (jalur tidak langsung); dan (2) secara langsung menurunkan afinitas reseptor adrenergik-a1.Kata kunci: diabetes, L-arginin, reseptor adrenergik-a1, stress oksidatif

Abstract

Frangipani is an important succulent plant around the worlds and also in Taiwan, for example, Plumeria rubra is widely grown as a popular ornamental tree in parks and landscaped establishments in Taiwan. Recently, a new disease in frangipani with mosaic and distortion symptoms was found in Taiwan. No viruses caused frangipani disease has been reported in Taiwan and the references about frangipani disease are still limited and only Frangipani mosaic virus (FrMV) was found. In this study, the molecular properties of a virus isolated from symptomatic frangipani in south Taiwan, such as Pingtung, Kauhsiung and Tainan were investigated. The virus with rod-shaped particles of 300 nm long and 18 nm in diameter was examined inside diseased leaves by electron microscopy. The purified virus particles showed the typical UV spectrum of tobamoviruses with A260/A280 value of 1.29 and maximum and minimum absorption at 260 nm and 249 nm, respectively. The molecular weight of 19.5 kDa as the size of coat protein of tobamoviruses was estimated by sodium dedocyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel (SDS-PAGE). Furthermore, the degenerate primers for tobamoviruses were used to amplify 568 bp and 400 bp of the DNA fragments in RT-PCR and nested PCR, respectively. Based on these results, it was confirmed that the rigid rod-shaped virus isolated from mosaic symptom of frangipani leaves is an isolate of FrMV, belonging to the genus Tobamovirus. This is the first report thatFrMV infecting Plumeria sp. in Taiwan.Keywords: Frangipani plant, FrMV, mosaic disease, Tobamovirus.

Abstract

Porang tubers are plant commodities that physiologically susceptible to damage. Longtime storage can decrease the quality of tubers. Furthermore, the presence of fungi or bacteria makes tubers cannot be stored in a long time. Decreasing quality of Porang tuber became a problem because of the higher demand for porang tubers. This research was conducted to determine the suitable place and time storage of porang tubers. Therefore, farmers can control or reduce the decrease in tuber quality. Methods of this research were an observation of color change based on the Munsell Color System, odor observation, hardness observation using penetrometer, the rotten area of tuber was measured using Leaf Area Meter, shrinkage of tuber weight, the percentage of rotten and sprouted tubers, density, and moisture content by the oven method. The results of this study were analysed statistically by ANOVA test. The hardness of the tubers has a significant effect on the storage place (soil, rack, and floor) for period 14 weeks. Storage time has an effect on changes of the weight loss, moisture content and decay area. The longer the tuber stored the higher percentage of sprouted and rotten tubers. The color of porang tubers change and the odor in the part of the rotten tubers increase during the storage period in each storage place. Porang tubers should not be stored for more than two weeks and placed on a rack to minimize the damage of the tubers.Keywords: Physical change, porang tubers, storage time.
