Tulisan ini menyampaikan empat hal yaitu ringkasan riwayat hidup Linnaeus, sistem klasifikasi menurut Linnaeus dan Darwin,rangkaian DNA dan ilmu sistematik serta ilmu sistematik mutakhir dan penelitian keanekaragaman hayati di Swedia. Linnaeus yang dilahirkan 300 tahun lalu di Swedia selatan, sangat terkenal karena mengenalkan sistem klasifikasi dan penggunaan dua nama atau binomial untuk penamaan spesies. Sistem penamaan binomial sampai saat inf masih digunakan. Penggunaan sistem binomial untuk penamaan tumbuhan dimulai dengan diterbitkannya buku Species Plantarum* pada tahun 1753. Pada binatang, sistem ini pertama kali dikenalkan dalam edisi kesepuluh Systema Naturae pada tahun 1758, yang menjadi titik awal untuk tatanama zoology the Code of Zoological Nomenclature.Sistem klasifikasi menurut Linnaeus bertujuan untuk menyusun keragaman tanpa ada unsur evolusi. Sekitar 100 tahun kemudian Charles Darwin dalam bukunya berjudul the Origin of Speciesmemberi penjelasan lain tentang keragaman hayati yaitu evolusi. Juga Darwin memberi ilustrasi yang sekarang kita sebut pohon filogenetik. dan menyampaikan pemikirannya tentang sistem klasifikasi alami yang merefleksikan silsilah yaitu klasifikasi dan urutan organisme yang menunjukkan adanya hubungan evolusi. Pergeseran dalam ilmu biologi ini kita kenal sebagai filogenetik atau klasifikasi cladistic. Pada tahun 1950an terjadi revolusi dalam ilmu biologi termasuk sistematika, yaitu dengan ditemukannya molekul DNA seperti yang dijelaskan oleh Crick dan Watson. Untuk ilmu sistematik, hal ini merupakan suatu perubahan dramatis yang memungkinkan merekonstruksi filogeni. Rangkaian DNA menyediakan lebih banyak karakter terutama variasi genetik yang tersembunyi dan juga dapat membandingkan jarak antar takson, yang tidak mungkin dilakukan bila hanya berdasarkan karakter morfologi. Perkembangan yang pesat dalam ilmu biologi molekuler tersebut sangat berpengaruh pada ilmu taksonomi dan sistematik mutakhir. Tehnik ini sangat membantu pekerjaan kita dalam memberi nama organisme di seluruh dunia yang sejak zaman Linnaeus sampai sekarang masih belum selesai. Sampai saat ini baru sekitar 1,7 jutajenis yang sudah diberi nama dan dideskripsi, padahal jumlah jenis seluruhnya diduga mencapai 5 sampai 100 juta. Sebagai upaya, pada tahun 2001 Pemerintah Swedia mendirikan The Swedish Species Information Centre dengan programnya yang disebut Swedish Taxonomy Initiative dan sejak tahun 2005 menyediakan anggaran sebesar US$ 9,5 juta per tahun.

Due to its high vitamin and nutrition content, banana (Musa paradisiaca L.) is deemed necessary as the mineral resources. The demand on the disease free seedlings are recently increasing. However, facing the problems of Fusarium attack in the production centers, health seedlings in the sufficient number are difficult to be provided. Hence, to solve the problems, mutative induction and in vitro selection to the shoot tip explants has been carried out in banana cv "Ambon Hijau", This research was conducted at the tissue culture laboratory of Indonesian Center for Agricultural Biotechnology and Genetic Resources Research and Development. On level of 500; 750; 1000; and 1500 rad, Gamma ray radiation have been applied, continued by in vitro selection by using 0, 30 and 45 mg/1 fusaric acid. The selected explant about 0,5 cm were treated for 2 x 4 week selection period. The result showed that the best medium for regeneration was MS basal medium contains 3 mg/1 BA. The irradiation could increase somaclonal variation as well as created some new somaclones that resistant to fusaric acid. However irradiation and in vitro selection caused inhibition of culture growth. The more dosage of irradiation and concentration of fusaric acid decreased regeneration rate of explant. Inoculation by using conidia (5 g/kg soil) provided 18 putative mutant and higher concentration of conidia (lOg/lOkg soil) produced 37 mutant that resistant to Fusarium.

An investigation about the effect of gamma irradiation on the progeny development of male fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster Meig) pre-marital has been done.The purpose of this study is to comprehend the changes in progeny as well as the probability of abnormal phenotype to fruit fly progeny as the result of gamma irradiation to male fruit fly pre-marital.The study has been conducted using Completely Randomize Design method with six repetitions. Pre-marital male fruit flies were irradiated at the doses of 10, 15 and 20 Gy with gamma ray from "Co source, having a dose rate of 0.66 Gy/hour. The irradiated fruit flies and non-irradiated ones as control, mated immediately with virgin female, then the first progeny (F,) was observed. The parameters used in this study were the total number of progeny and the number of abnormal phenotype of the progeny. The data were analyzed by using Analysis of varians (ANOVA), proceeded with Duncan test. Regression analyses was also perform to comprehend how far gamma irradiation affected the fruit fly progeny. The result indicated that gamma irradiation significantly affected (a=l%) the total number of progeny The average total number of fruit fly progeny caused by gamma irradiation with the doses of 10, 15 and 20 Gy, tend to decrease i.e. 43, 81 and 85%. It appeared that gamma irradiation caused mutation which figures as wing abnormality. It was also found that an irradiation dose of 10 Gy do not caused abnormality. Abnormal phenotype to the wing organ began to appear at the given dose of 15 Gy.

Talas {Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott} and Iles-iles (Amorphophalus campanulatus Blumei) have been used as source of carbohydrate especially in tropical regions, mainly in East Indonesia. Talas and iles-iles, that contains carbohydrate and several substances for instance glucomannan would form viscous liquid and were used as emulgator, capsule cosmetics and dietary.The research was conducted to separate glucomannan from starch of talas and iles-iles fresh and dry (powder).The methods base on speed of revolution (centrifuge) in 5000 to 19000 rpm and the duration of rotation was 10 to 40 minutes and the filtrate was precipitated by using several alcohols (methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol and isobutanol). The results showed that speed of rotation 17 x 1000 rpm with 10 minutes rotation resulted in good glucomannan separation from starch.Ethanol and isopropanol were the best solvent to separate glucomanan from dissolved starch in the filtrate with ratio 2 : 3 and for dry material, and the maximal agitation reached after 2 hours. Glucomannan content on fresh material was higher than as in talas (4.08 %) and iles-iles (5.64 %), compared to these in powder (dried) of talas (3.87 %) and iles-iles (5.41 %). The purerity of isolated glucomannan was higher compared to control.

Study on shoots growth and development of Typhonium flagelliforme (Lodd.) Blume and T. trilobatum (L.) Schott were carried out by in vitro technique.These species produce tubers are used for cancer medication; also the whole parts of plants has been reported potential for traditional medicine. Chemicals isolated from from crude extract of whole plants of T.flagelliforme are methyl esters of hexedecanoic acid, octadecanoic acid, 9- octadecanoic acid and 9,12- octadecadienoic acid.The chemical contents inhibited/decreased the proliferation of human leukaemia cell lines in test.For medical and cosmetics industrial usage of the plants requires supply materials continously of which in turn necessitate its cultivation and planting. The planting materials can be produced efficiently by micro propagation or in vitro technique. The objective of the study was to evaluate the culture respond to the plant growth regulator (PGR) treatments effect. The experiment was designed with completely randomized designed (CRD).The study was indicated that proliferation of shoot were optimum in the growth medium was supplemented with N6-Benzyladenine (BA) 1mg/l and NAA 0,5 mg/l. Acclimatization stage and planted to the soil were successful, almost whole (90-95 %) plants were survive.

Photorhabdus luminescens HJ is an entomopathogenic bacterium that has a high toxicity against Tenebrio molitor larvae.Toxicity assay of crude extra cellular protein precipitated using ammonium sulphate showed that the highest toxin activity was found in 70 % saturation. Purification of the toxin using Hi Prep 16/60 Sephacryl S-200 HR column exhibited one fraction of toxic protein and three fractions of non-toxic protein. Mortality of T. molitor larvae treated with 19.2 nanogram of toxic fraction was up to 80%. Denatured protein analysis using sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed that the toxic fraction was composed of three proteins, which were 19.5, 42, and 66 kDa respectively. Based on toxin activity bioassay, this toxin type was an injectable toxin and presumably classified as Mcf toxin.
