Abstract

Five shallot varieties namely ‘Bauji’, ‘Bantaeng’, ‘Tuk Tuk’, ‘Rubaru’, and ‘Palasa’ were examined for their leaf pigment, total phenolic content, leaf tissue nutrient analysis, and green shallot production. The experiment was conducted in in Cikabayan greenhouse, IPB University, Dermaga, Bogor, arranged in a randomized complete block design with single factor (variety) and three replications. The observations were carried out three times in the maximum vegetative period, consisting of 20, 30, and 40 days after planting. The result showed that ‘Palasa’ had the highest leaf pigment content, such as chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll, and carotenoid, while the anthocyanin content fluctuated between the varieties and observation times. ‘Palasa’ also had the highest sulfur content in the leaf tissues. On the contrary, ‘Palasa’ had the lowest production compared to other the varieties. Meanwhile, ‘Bantaeng’ had the highest green shallot production, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus content in the leaf tissues. Total phenolic content fluctuated in the five varieties and observation times. The highest total phenolic content was in ‘Tuk Tuk’, observed 20 days after planting. The principal component analysis (PCA) showed that the five shallot varieties formed three clusters. The first was ‘Palasa’, the second cluster was ‘Bauji’, ‘Tuk Tuk’, and ‘Rubaru’, while the third cluster was ‘Bantaeng’. ‘Palasa’ had the highest content of leaf pigment, while Bantaeng had the highest leaf production. Leaf pigment and total phenolic content changed along with the increasing plant age in all varieties.

Abstract

Pepper production has decreased recently, especially due to yellow diseases of Fusarium sp. Thus, this research aimed to isolate and characterize Fusarium sp. from soil and root of healthy and diseased pepper plants. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. Soil and root pepper samples were taken from lands in Payung and Ranggung Village, Payung District, South Bangka Regency. There were 3 varieties of pepper plant used, including Petaling 1, Nyelungkup, and Merapin Daun Kecil. The characterization of Fusarium sp. isolate included macroscopic and microscopic observation. Macroscopic observation included colony color, colony base color, and growth rate/colony diameter size (cm), while microscopic observation included hyphae structure, and the shape and size of microconidia, macroconidia, chlamydospore, and conidiophore. The research found 66 isolates of Fusarium genus based on the colony color. Most of the isolates were white or purple and red. Colony color of Fusarium sp. showed white color, which then turned to orange color. All isolates showed septate hyphae. Isolates with macroconidia 3-4 septate and micronidia 0-1 septate showed the character of Fusarium oxysporum, while isolates with macroconidia 3-5 septate and microconidia 0-2 septate showed the character of Fusarium solani.

Abstract

Strawberries are often transported and sold without temperature control, which causes huge losses due to rapid decay and quality deterioration. In this study, the effectiveness of edible coatings using alginate and enriched with an antibacterial agent (cinnamaldehyde from Cinnamomum burmannii essential oil), to maintain the quality and shelf life of strawberry was examined. Alginate coatings were prepared by dissolving 2%(w/v) sodium alginate, 0.5%(v/v) glycerol, 0.1%(w/v) CMC, and 0.5% (w/v) stearic acid, while antimicrobial agent was prepared by homogenizing 0.5%(v/v) cinnamon essential oil and 0.2%(v/v) Tween 20. Physicochemical and biochemical attributes [weight loss, firmness, color (L*, a*, b*), soluble solids content, vitamin C loss, acidity level, odor, total yeast and molds, and total mesophilic microorganisms were analyzed during storage under tropical conditions at 27±2°C. Statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA followed by a Tukey test. The inhibitory activity of antimicrobial agent was evaluated using the disc diffusion method. An alginate-based coatings enriched with Cinnamomum burmannii essential oil (AL+CBEO) was effective in maintaining physicochemical quality attributes and reducing the number of spoilage microorganisms, while alginate coatings alone (AL) found to be optimal for vitamin C loss prevention and additionally exhibited a more desirable odor. Overall, strawberry stored under tropical conditions appeared to be better preserved by alginate-based coatings enriched with cinnamon essential oil.

Abstract

Rice is the primary food commodity in Indonesia. To increase the rice production, urea fertilizer has been excessively used, specifically on marginal land. However, it has no desired effect on the plant’s Nitrogen uptake due to volatilization. Previous studies suggest the use of zeolite to be mixed with urea to reduce the volatilization rate. This study aimed to determine the effect of six NP-SR (Nitrogen Phosphorus Slow Release) fertilizer compositions (without NP-SR; 20.69-0; 19.7-5; 17.27-10; 15.9-15; and 18.94-20) on soil chemical properties, nitrogen efficiency, and paddy rice yield on Ultisols at three waterlogging levels (0.5 cm, 3 cm, and 5 cm). The study was an experiment arranged in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) consisting of two factors, which were waterlogging levels and NP-SR fertilizer compositions. The results showed that waterlogging treatments significantly affected soil chemical properties in the initial vegetative and harvest phases. It can be concluded that the treatment of flooding (up to 3 cm) and fertilizer (NP-SR of 15.90-15) application could significantly reduce the volatilization rate, increase the efficiency of N fertilizer, and increase rice yield.

Abstract

Cooking oil is one of the basic human needs. Improving the quality of bulk cooking oil is necessary because it is related to economic reason. The bulk cooking oil have a lower price than brand package oil, of course. Based on these reasons, research is needed on the use of antioxidants to improve the quality of bulk cooking oil. This study aims to identify the phytochemicals of bay leaves extract through TOF profiling, analysis of iodine number and acid number of bay leaves extract against bulk cooking oil. TOF profiling was carried out to see whether bay leaves had chemical compounds that supported antioxidant activity which had an impact on the inhibition of fat oxidation. The research consisted of 4 stages: 1) extraction and fractionation of bay leaves, 2) TOF profiling of bay leaves extract, 3) application of bay leaves extract to bulk cooking oil, 4) analysis of iodine and acid numbers. Profiling TOF of the bay leaves extract showed 3 peaks : C6H13NO5 (cyclohexanol, galactose, and fructose derivatives), C11H14O5 (pyran and furan), andC11H19NO3 (morpholine derivate). According to SNI, the acid value maximum 0.6 mg KOH/g. Iodine value minimum is 45 g I2/ 100 mL (SNI 3741 : 2013). Based of this data standart, this study recommended use bay leaves extract in concentration 0.80%. The addition of bay leaves extract as much as 0.80% showed an iodine number of 48.2 g I2/100 mL and an acid number of 0.34 mg KOH/g where the positive control TBHQ showed an iodine number of 48.7 g I2/100 mL and an acid number of 0.19 mg KOH/g.

Abstract

The demand for daily consumption of tomato fruit is increasing immensely. Nevertheless, the fruit is exposed to mechanical damage, shrinking, and softening as the maturity stages, handling, and storage are inappropriate, thereby affecting the texture. The study aimed to assess the texture profile, pectinase activity, and physicochemical parameters in tomato fruit at different maturity stages and storage temperatures. The fruits were harvested at 1-4 weeks after pollination and stored at a temperature of 16 ºC and 25ºC. There was an increase in the redness color (a*), TSS content, weight loss, respiration rate, and ethylene production, while the hardness, lightness color (L*), pH, and TA decreased with an increase in maturity stages at different storage temperatures. The higher Polygalacturonase (PG) and Pectin methylesterase (PME) enzyme activities were observed at 25 ºC compared to storage temperature of 16 ºC. It was confirmed that pectinase activity extremely affected the texture profile. For commercial purposes, it is suggested that tomatoes are harvested at 2nd and 3rd week after pollination for long distance transportation and at 4th week for fresh consumption and stored at a temperature of 16 °C.

Abstract

Most of the social forestry program plantations in Bengkulu are in the form of mixed planting of coffee or rubber trees. The type of land use affects the production and decomposition of litterfall, which play an important role in nutrient cycle. The aim of the research was to determine the production and decomposition rate of litterfall in coffee (Coffee robusta) monoculture, coffee and Gliricidia sepium (gliricidia) agroforestry, and rubber (Hevea brasiliensis) monoculture. The research was arranged in a systematic design with three treatments and fifteen replications. The variables measured included production, composition, and decomposition rate of litterfall. The collected data were analyzed using T-test. According to the results, the litter production in coffee monoculture, agroforestry of coffee and gliricidia, and rubber monoculture was 1051.5, 1001.5, and 662.5 Kg ha-1 4 months-1 with the decomposition rate about 5.13, 4.25, and 5.28 gr m-2 4 months-1, consecutively.  The litterfall composition in the three types of land use consisted of leaf, twig, fruit, and flower. Leaf was the highest component of litterfall in coffee monoculture, agroforestry of coffee and gliricidia, and rubber monoculture, reaching 830.2 (78.99%), 646.7 (64.73%), and 391.0 (59.01%) kg ha-1, respectively. Nutrition analysis of leaf litterfall indicated that the highest content of C, N, P, and K was observed in agroforestry of coffee and gliricidia compared to other plantation types.
