Pertumbuhan, Produksi dan Kandungan Nutrisi Hijauan Unggul pada Tingkat Naungan yang Berbeda
ABSTRAK. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mendapatkan spesies hijauan pakan unggul yang toleran terhadap naungan agar dapat dikembangkan pada lahan perkebunan kelapa sawit. Penelitian dilaksanakan di kebun percobaan Gowa Balai Pengkajian Teknologi Pertanian (BPTP) Balitbangtan Sulawesi Selatan. Penelitian menggunakan 5 spesies hijauan unggul yaitu Brachiaria hybrid cv. Mulato, Paspalum atratum, Setaria sphacelata, Brachiaria brizantha, dan Panicum maximum pada tiga tingkat naungan yaitu 0%, 50% dan 65%. Setiap spesies hijauan ditanam di bawah naungan berukuran 2 x 1,5 m2 dengan tiga ulangan dalam rancangan petak terbagi. Peubah yang diukur yaitu laju pertumbuhan relatif, luas daun spesifik, laju asimilasi bersih, produksi kumulatif, dan kandungan nutrisi (protein, NDF dan ADF). Hasil yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa Brachiaria hybrid cv. Mulato dan Panicum maximum memiliki laju pertumbuhan relatif yang lebih tinggi pada berbagai tingkat naungan dan nilai laju asimilasi bersih tinggi meskipun ternaungi hingga 65%, namun nilai rata-rata luas daun spesifik (LDS) paling rendah dibanding hijauan lainnya. Simpulan spesies Brachiaria hybrid cv. Mulato merupakan hijauan unggul yang paling toleran terhadap naungan dibanding keempat spesies hijauan lainnya.(Growth, production, and content of superior forage nutrients at different shade levels)ABSTRACT The research aimed to obtain superior` forage species that are tolerant to shade so they can be developed on oil palm plantations. The research was carried out in the Gowa experimental garden of the Balai Pengkajian Teknologi Pertanian (BPPT) South Sulawesi. This study used 5 superior forage species namely Brachiaria hybrid cv. Mulato, Paspalum atratum, Setaria sphacelata, Brachiaria brizantha, Panicum maximum and three shading levels of 0%, 50% and 65%. Each forage species is planted in a 2 x 1.5 m2 shade with three replications in a divided plot design. The variables measured are relative growth rates, specific leaf area, net assimilation rate, cumulative production, and nutrient content (protein, NDF and ADF). The results obtained showed that Brachiaria hybrid cv. Mulato and Panicum maximum have a higher relative growth rate at various shade levels and the value of the net assimilation rate is high even though it is shaded by 65%, but the average specific leaf area value is the lowest compared to other forages. The conclusion is Brachiaria hybrid species. Mulato is a superior forage that is most tolerant to shade compared to the other four forage species

ABSTRAK. Perhitungan total digestible nutrients (TDN) dan Protein tercerna secara biologis seringkali mengalami kesulitan sehingga dilakukan perhitungan dengan menggunakan model pendugaan. Penelitian bertujuan untuk membandingkan model pendugaan TDN dan protein tercerna pada domba Garut jantan yang diberi ransum berbahan baku pakan lokal. Dua puluh empat ekor domba Garut diberi ransum berbasis bahan pakan lokal dengan kandungan TDN dan protein berbeda, lalu diukur nilai TDN dan protein tercerna. Nilai keakuratan model pendugaan TDN dan protein tercerna diukur dengan perhitungan ratio prediction to deviation (RPD), Hubungan TDN dan protein tercerna in vivo dengan berbagai model pendugaan dilakukan dengan menggunakan analisis regresi. Model pendugaan yang digunakan untuk mengukur TDN adalah model Sutardi, Wardeh dan Harris et al., sedangkan model pendugaan protein tercerna menggunakan model Beenson dan Knight dan Haris. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa model pendugaan TDN Wardeh lebih akurat dibandingan dengan model Sutardi maupun Beenson dengan nilai ratio prediction to deviation (RDP) = 2,45, R2 = 08629 dan r = 0,9289. Model pendugaan protein tercerna Beenson dan Knight dan Haris tidak dapat digunakan karena memiliki nilai RDP yang sangat rendah. Kesimpulannya model pendugaan Wardeh lebih akurat dalam mengukur TDN pada domba Garut jantan.(Comparison of the total digestible nutrients (TDN) and digestible proteins models in male Garut sheep fed local feed-based rations)ABSTRACT. Calculation of total digestible nutrients (TDN) and digested proteins biologically are often difficult, so calculations are made using the estimation model. The study aimed to compare the estimation model of TDN and digestible proteins in male Garut sheep fed local feed-based rations. Twenty-four of male Garut sheep were given various types of rations based on local feed ingredients with different TDN and protein content, then measured the value of TDN and digested protein. Then the accuracy of the TDN and digested protein estimation model was measured by calculating the ratio of prediction to deviation (RPD), while measuring the relationship of TDN and digested proteins In Vivo with various estimation models was carried out using regression analysis. The estimation model used to measure TDN was the Sutardi, Wardeh and Harris et al. models, while the digested protein estimation model is using Beenson and Knight and Haris models. The results show that the Wardeh TDN estimation model is more accurate compared to the Sutardi and Beenson models with the RDP = 2.45, R2 = 0.8629 and r = 0.9289. Beenson and Knight and Haris digestible protein estimation model cannot be used because it has a very low RDP value. The conclusion is Wardeh estimation model is more accurate in measuring TDN in male Garut sheep

Expression of Lon-like Protease Gene from Lactobacillus plantarum IIA-1A5 in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3)
Proteases are one of most important and abundant enzymes produced by the biotechnology industry, for scientific, physiological and industrial application and dominates of the whole enzyme market. Lactobacillus plantarum IIA-1A5 is an Indonesian lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from beef Peranakan Ongole cattle. Preliminary analysis on its whole genome sequence indicated that this strain harbours some genes involved in protein degradation and might be promising to be further applied. This study aims to optimize the gene sequence of a lon-like protease of L. plantarum IIA-1A5 for heterologous expression system. The Lon-like gene expression system is made using genes that have been optimized first in silico. pET-28a(+), E. coli BL21(DE3), Nde1 and BamH1 were used in this study as a expression vector, a host and retriction enzyme, respectively. Molecular weight was validated using SDS-PAGE and expasy.org software. The results showed that optimization increased codon adaptation index value (CAI) and GC content to 0.97 and 56.57%, respectively, which were suitable for the E. coli expression system. The Lon-like IIA gene was successfully expressed in the cell cytoplasm by induction of 1 mM Isopropyl -D-1-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) at 37 C. As many as 88% of Lon-like IIA codons were distributed in the 91-100 quality group. Lon-like IIA was successfully expressed in a host cell induced with 1 mM IPTG at 37oC . IPTG induction was performed at the 3rd hour of incubation with OD600 0.59. In addition, Lon-like IIA molecular weight was detected approximately 43 kDa
