Bioprospeksi Bunga Lolipop (Pachystachys lutea Nees) sebagai Sumber Alternatif untuk Produksi Gula: Bioprospecting of the lollipop plant (Pachystachys lutea Nees) as Alternative Source for Sugar Production
The lollipop plant (Pachystachys lutea Nees) has been known as an ornamental plant species that originated from the South America region. In Indonesia, some local children claim that the nectar of this flower has a very sweet flavor. This fact has inspired this short bioprospecting study of the lollipop plant with aim to discover its nectar as a potential alternative sugar source. The study was conducted in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia. Four lollipop plants from three different shading level (one plant in full shade andpartial shade, and two plant in full sun exposure) were sampled as many as five flowers from each plant and their nectar droplets, measured using brix refractometer, and also compared with sweet corn seeds (Zea mays L.) and sugarcane stems (Saccharum officinarum L.). The data was then validated for its significance using t-Tests. The result shows that the lollipop plant grown in partial shade has the highest brix percentage (27.00±1.02%) compared to the rest and is significantly different statistically. The brix percentage of all samples combined for this lollipop plant (25.56±0.42%) also surpassed the sugarcane (15.33±0.36%) and sweet corn (12.67±0.47%) and was significantly different statistically

Forests are natural resources that play an essential role in climate change mitigation. Rising earth temperatures are causing climate change, which is driven by an increase in greenhouse particles, one of which is carbon particles. Human actions generate carbon particles. The amount of carbon absorbed and stored is critical to understanding and serves as a measure of forest condition. The study’s goal is to determine the amount of carbon stored in the Alue Geulima forest in Tahura Pocut Meurah Intan. The Alue Geulima Forest is a representative conservation area with high biodiversity and forest cover. Nested plot methods (in metres): tree level (20 × 20); pole level (10 × 10) and sapling level (5 × 5). Placement of plots systematically (uniform spacing) and the initial plots were placed randomly. The number of plots is 25 plots, sampling of intensity 0.5% represents 200 ha of Alue Geulima forest. The results showed that the value of carbon stocks stored in various strata of stands (trees, poles and saplings) found in 25 measuring plots reached 3,483.76 tons or the average reached the highest in RPH Alue Geulima found at the tree level, namely 2,338.41 tons ha-1. The total carbon stock stored above ground level in the Alue Geulima Tahura PMI Aceh Besar RPH as a whole is 139.35 tons ha-1 with total carbon stocks per 200 ha Alue Geulima RPH forest area of 27,870.08 tons

Variasi Bentuk dan Warna Sisik Sayap Kupu-Kupu dan Ngengat: Variations in Shape and Color of Butterfly Wing Scales and Moths
Butterflies and moths are members of Lepidoptera with the main characteristic of having two pairs of membranous wings covered with scales. The wings of butterflies and moths have colored patterns that can be used as protection from predators. The aim of this study was to compare the shape, size, and color variations of the scales on the wings of butterflies and moths. Samples of butterflies and moths were collected from the Dramaga Bogor Agricultural University campus. In this study, 11 species of butterflies were used belonging to three families, namely Pieridae, Nymphalidae, and Papilionidae, and 9 species of moths in four families, namely Erebidae, Geometridae, Hesperiidae, and Uraniidae. Observation of scales was carried out with a compound microscope connected to a camera, and measured using imageJ. The shape of the wing scales of butterflies and moths was elongated and widened with the base of the scales and the number of teeth on the distal part varied. The shape of the serrations on the butterfly scales tends to be rounded, while on the moth it is tapered. Larger scale sizes are found on light-colored butterfly scales and dark-colored moth scales

The results showed that there were 7 species of predatory coccinellid, namely Coccinella tranversalis, Harmonia octomaulata, Menochilus sexmaculatus, Coelephora. macullata, C. bisellata, Verania lineate, and V. discolor with diversity at a moderate level (1,254), evenness at a low level (0.239) , the richness at a low level (1,628), and dominance of coccinellid at a low level (0.369)
Seleksi dan Karakterisasi Bakteri Halotoleran Penghasil Enzim Amilase Dari Produk Fermentasi Ikan-Inasua: Selection and Characterization of Halotolerant Bacteria that produce Amylase Enzyme from Fish-Inasua Fermented Food
Fish-inasua fermented food is a potential source to obtain halotolerant bacteria-producing amylase. Previously, four bacterial isolates such as IG12, IG6, IG66, and IG31, isolated from this food, have been reported to be able to produce protease and lipase enzyme, but their potential as amylase enzyme producers have not been studied. This study aims to characterize and test the potential of halotolerant bacteria isolated from this food in producing amylase enzymes. Based on Gram staining, four bacterial isolates were Gram-positive. The qualitative test of amylase on NA medium with the addition of 1% starch showed four bacteria were able to produce amylase in NaCl (0 to 5%)-containing medium. IG66 isolate was the most potential isolate because it had the highest enzyme activity in a medium with 5% NaCl concentration, which was 0.095 U/ml. The amylase activity was produced maximum at the 8th hour, which is the early stationary phase. Its maximum activity in the 5% NaCl-containing medium was at the 10th hour. In addition, amylase produced by IG66 isolate reached optimum activity at a temperature of 50°C and pH 7. This study concluded that IG66 isolate was the most potential halotolerant isolate that could be developed as an amylase-producing agent

The diversity of forage plant species for elephants can be analyzed by observing the anatomy of undigested plant fragments in the fecal. This study aims to identify forage plants from the fecal samples of Sumatran elephant in Way Kambas National Park. The research methods include collected fecal samples at Way Kambas National Park, prepared slide microscope of epidermis of the plant fragments using the whole mount method, observed the anatomical characters and identified the plant fragments based on data from previous studies and reference. The results obtained 34 types of epidermis which were differentiated based on the characteristics of epidermal cell, stomata and trichomes. These epidermis types were used to identify the plants forage by Sumatran elephants. We found leaf fragment of four families, namely Arecaceae, Cyperaceae, Poaceae and Zingiberaceae. The most common fragments found in the fecal samples were the leaf fragments of Poaceae (28 type epidermis). Anatomical study on the plant fragments in fecal can be used as an alternative method in studying plants consumed by elephant
First Record of Free-Living Nematode Mylonchulus hawaiiensis from Bondowoso Regency-Indonesia
Monochids are predatory nematodes that can be found in various ecosystems. In this study, we analyzed monochids from the rhizosphere of Arabica coffee in Bondowoso Regency-Indonesia. The morphological analysis showed that the nematode belonged to the Mylonchulus hawaiiensis (Cassidy, 1931) species. The analysis results were also confirmed by a molecular analysis using DNA from a single nematode. The study also involved a polymerase chain reaction process using a forward primer SSU F07 (5’-AAA GAT TAA GCC ATG CAT G-3’) and reverse primer SSU R 81 (5’-TGA TCC WKC YGC AGG TTC AC-3’), which amplifies the small subunit (SSU) region of rDNA. Phylogenetic analysis of the sequence obtained formed a cluster with those of M. hawaiiensis found in GenBank. The sequences obtained had homology ranging from 99.64 to 99.70% compared with M. hawaiiensis sequences found in GenBank. This study is the first report of M. hawaiiensis from Indonesia
