Karakterisasi Ganoderma spp. di Kabupaten Banyumas dan Uji Peran Basidiospora dalam Siklus Penyakit Busuk Batang
Ganoderma sp., one of fungi belonged to the family Ganodermataceae, order of Aphyllophorales, class of Basidiomycetes is very widely spread. This fungus is a soil-borne, and has parasitic and saprophytic features which are interesting because of their two contradictory roles namely harmful and beneficial effects. As a plant parasite, Ganoderma is able to cause root and stem rot of tropical perennial crop plantation and forest which cause serious losses. The fungus is well known as white rot fungus which is able to cause a wood rotten by lignin destruction. On the contrary, the fungus has some advantages such as medical potentials. In this study, some collections and characterization of Ganoderma spp. found in Banyumas has been conducted. The technique used for sampling Ganoderma spp. mushroom is a survey with Purposive Random Sampling method. Samples were taken from nature in the area of Banyumas Regency and its natural substrate were noted. Characterization based on the macromorphology and micromorphology was done for grouping and identification. Micromorphology observations were done by slicing and painting samples with plants microtechnique method. The result showed that there were 43 Ganoderma spp isolates, distributed from low to high lands of 100 - 500 m above sea level. The most fungi were found on the high lands, in Baturraden sub district, which included 16 isolates. The interesting finding is the discovery of Ganoderma spp. which attacked flamboyant plant (Delonix regia) in West Purwokerto sub district. Based on micromorphology observations, these fungi form a basidium and basidiospore inside and below as well as the surface of the fruit body. Some species were also found having such phenomenon so it needs further research on the role of basidiospora in the cycle of stem rot disease, especially basidiospora role in the initiation of diseases infection. As the soil infecting mushroom, study of the disease spreading is focused more on the role of the mycelium found in the remaining plants as infecting the material. Basidiopore role in the spread of the disease is rarely studied, but actually basidiospore is a potential source of genetic variation
Induksi Pematangan Gonad dengan Ovaprim-C: untuk Penyediaan Benih Belut Sawah (Monopterus albus) Berkelanjutan
Rice eel (Monopterus albus Zuiew), have economical value is high in Banyumas, national to international markets, but rarely is grown intensively, the seed is still dependent on the catch. Reproduction of swamp eel unlike other fish species in the presence of phase teleostei intersex / hermafroditus and in nature only spawn once a year. This study will seek to accelerate the scale seed production with natural canvas with several techniques triggers lust and sex organ maturation eels based preparedness aspects of reproductive anatomy, hormones estradiol and testosterone profiles and the intrinsic need for hormonal regulation and the mechanism for the reproductive cycle of the eel rice. In the first year aims to determine (1) the profile of estradiol and testosterone hormonal parent during the natural reproductive cycle, (2) histologic gonadogenesis (development of the testes and ovaries) eel rice during the natural reproductive cycle was evaluated by measuring fecundity. Results: In the control group, body weight gradually decreased during the study. Unlike the control group, the treatment groups were observed every two weeks showed an increase in body weight; Results of the study, in the control group (A0), the value of female eels GSI average of the first two weeks until the fourth two weeks is 0.67 % and 1.78%. While the treatment group A1 was 1.42% - 4.28% (DM-1 s / d DM-4), for the treatment A2 GSI average value is 2.52% - 7.05%; fecundity eggs increased during induction period; calibration titer two types of hormones in the first two weeks to the fourth two weeks showed improvement when compared with the control group; histological profile of rice eel gonad after induction of ovaprim-C show that up to the fourth two weeks, gonad has reached late-stage yolk globule (advanced primary oocyte), even the most mature oocyte has reached the stage: in male eels up to the fourth two weeks has reached the stage of spermatozo
