Genetic Diversity Analysis of Jatropha Curcas Provenances Using Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA Markers
<p>Genetic Diversity Analysis of Jatropha Curcas<br />Provenances Using Randomly Amplified Polymorphic<br />DNA Markers. Dani Satyawan and I Made Tasma.<br />Jatropha curcas nuts are rich in oil that is higly suitable for<br />Hak Cipta © 2011, BB-Biogen<br />the production of bio-diesel or to be used directly in<br />modified diesel engines. The objective of this study was to<br />assess the extent of genetic diversity among 50 J. curcas<br />provenances and one accession of J. integerrima using<br />RAPD markers. The fifty J. curcas provenances were<br />collected from ecologically diverse regions of Indonesia, and<br />planted in the Pakuwon Experimental Station (Sukabumi,<br />West Java). Fourteen RAPD primers with 60-80% G+C<br />content were used in this genetic diversity analysis and<br />produced 64 bands with 95.7% polymorphism level. The<br />Polymerase Chain Reactions used to generate the RAPD<br />bands sometimes produced inconsistent and nonreproducible<br />results, necessitating the duplication of each<br />reaction to prevent scoring errors. Sixty one validated bands<br />were subsequently used for genetic diversity analysis using<br />Unweighted Pair Group Method Arithmetic (UPGMA)<br />method and Dice coefficients. It was shown that the<br />similarity coefficients among the provenances ranged from<br />0.2 to 0.98 with an average similarity of 0.75. Dendrogram<br />analysis produced two major groups of provenances, with<br />one outlier from South Lampung. There was no tendency for<br />provenances originated from nearby regions to cluster<br />together in each group, and several provenances showed<br />more similarities with provenances originated from distant<br />regions. This pattern lent credence to reports that Jatropha<br />was introduced to Indonesia around four centuries ago and<br />was mainly spread by humans. Based on the mean<br />similarities among the accessions and their clustering<br />pattern, the genetic diversity of the Jatropha collection<br />appeared to be fairly low. Future additions of genetic<br />materials from more diverse genetic background will be<br />necessary to maintain the current progress of Jatropha<br />improvement program.</p></jats:p

Gene Duplication to Reveal Adaptation Clue of Plant to Environmental Stress: A Case Study of NBS-LRR Genes in Soybean
<p><strong>Gene duplication to reveal adaptation </strong><strong>clue</strong><strong> of plant to environmental stress: A case study of NBS-LRR genes in soybean. <em>Puji Lestari, Suk-Ha Lee</em></strong><strong><em>, I Made Tasma</em></strong><strong><em>, </em></strong><strong><em>and </em></strong><strong><em>Asadi</em></strong><strong>. </strong>Adaptive strategies of plant to stress are fine-tuned by adjusting several activities including molecular mechanism which involve duplicated genes responsive to environmental changes. Genes responsive to the environmental stresses which are retained after small scale duplication are part of plant genome duplication. However, less information of duplicated genes could be adaptive to environmental changes in plant. This review presents an overview of duplication events in plant genomes which impact to gene duplication in relation to environmental changes, gene duplication as an adaptation mechanism, a case of duplicated nucleotide binding site-<em>leucine</em>-<em>rich</em> repeat (NBS-LRR) genes in soybean, and the gene duplication implementation for plant breeding in Indonesia. Notably, genome duplication events generate gene duplication and contribute to adaptive evolution against environmental changes. Generalization of plants to adapt the stressful conditions also probably improves our understanding of gene duplication as a mechanism of adaptation. Several recently duplicated NBS-LRR genes in soybean retain disease resistance QTL and the differential expression convince their contribution to biotic stress resistance in soybean. Proposed models of NBS-LRR genes duplication process may help to understand these genes response to the environmental changes. The duplication of genes resistant to pest/disease particularly NBS-LRR provides important information to select breeding parents and develop molecular markers related to desease resistance to genetically improve soybean in Indonesia. Overall, it may therefore be possible to enhance breeding which targets on genes tolerance/resistance to abiotic/biotic stress, and provide a molecular basis for crop-stress protection strategy and more improved soybean varieties specified for harsh environment.</p></jats:p
Gen dan QTL Pengendali Toleransi Tanaman terhadap Keracunan Aluminium dan Aplikasinya untuk Pemuliaan Tanaman di Indonesia
<p>Genetic knowledge of loci controlling Al toxicity tolerance is the key for a successful breeding program in developing Al<br />tolerant cultivars. Tolerance level of crop plants to Al toxicity is genetically controlled. The gene inheritance pattern is mainly<br />resulted from intensive studies of cereal crops, such as wheat, sorghum, maize, and rice. The trait can be controlled by a<br />single dominant gene, a single dominant gene with many alleles, a pair of dominant genes, or by many genes (QTL). The<br />majority of the Al tolerance genes identified so far belongs to two independent groups of gene families, i.e. aluminumactivated<br />malate transporter (ALMT) and multidrug and toxic compound extrusion (MATE), both encoding transport proteins<br />involved in Al-activated organic acid release, mainly citrate and malate. The variations in Al toxicity tolerance phenotypes are<br />strongly correlated with the expressions of such genes in the root apical cells. Many Al tolerance QTLs have been mapped in<br />the genomes of various crop species and were found to be colocated with the ALMT and MATE genes. The genetic maps of<br />the Al tolerance genes and QTLs facilitate breeding programs for developing Al-tolerant cultivars through marker-assisted<br />breeding methods. Al tolerance genes that have been isolated from genetically unrelated species can be used in genetic<br />transformation studies of crop genotypes sexually incompatible to the gene source genotypes. The application of these<br />molecular breeding methods expedites breeding programs to develop crop cultivars tolerance to Al toxicity and acid soils.<br />Genomic technologies by using next-generation sequencing and high-throughput genotyping system accelerate Al toxicity<br />tolerance gene and QTL discoveries of various crop species. The modern genomic technologies also facilitate more<br />comprehensive PGR characterization and utilization to accelerate identification and isolation of the Al tolerance genes and<br />QTLs to be used in a more comprehensive breeding program to support national food self sufficiency and food security<br />programs.</p></jats:p
Aplikasi Teknologi DNA untuk Akselerasi Program Pemuliaan Ketahanan Tanaman Kakao terhadap Hama dan Penyakit Utama
<p>ABSTRACT<br />One of the main constraints on cacao cultivation is disease and insect pest attacks causing significant yield loss. The main insect pests and diseases on cacao plantation are cacao pod borer, cacao<br />fruit rot, vascular streak dieback and cacao mirids (Helopeltis spp.). Conventional breeding method to obtain new cacao clones resistant to insect pests and diseases is a slow process. It may take 1520 years to obtain a new superior clone. Applying DNA technology should expedite cacao breeding program. The article described the application of DNA technology currently available to expedite cacao breeding program for disease and insect resistance. Many genes and quantitative trait loci (QTLs) of important traits have been discovered related to cacao plant productivity and yield quality, disease and insect pest resistance traits. Modern genomic technologies as well as DNA marker have also been applied in cacao breeding program. Genetic transformation technology has been explored its application for cacao improvement. With the development of modern genomic technology, important gene/QTL discoveries would be faster to accelerate insect pest and disease resistant cultivar development. All these new DNA technologies have been assessed their potential applications for coping important pest and disease and for yield improvement. DNA technologies, mainly MAS and genomic-data based breeding technologies are ready to be applied to support breeding programs for main pest and disease resistance to enhance Indonesian cacao productivity and quality.<br />Keywords: Cacao, disease and insect resistance, genomics, DNA markers, genetic transformation, marker-assisted breeding<br /><br /></p><p>Abstrak</p><p>Salah satu kendala utama dalam budi daya kakao ialah serangan hama dan penyakit.

Pendekatan Bioteknologi dan Genomika untuk Perbaikan Genetik Tanaman Jarak Pagar sebagai Penghasil Bahan Bakar Nabati
<p>Jarak pagar (Jatropha curcas L.) merupakan tanaman penghasil minyak nabati yang dapat digunakan sebagai pengganti minyak diesel. Tanaman yang dapat tumbuh pada kondisi lahan kurang subur ini menarik minat banyak pihak untuk mengekplorasi potensinya sebagai tanaman sumber energi yang ramah lingkungan. Namun, masih banyak kendala yang dihadapi dalam pembudidayaannya supaya dapat diusahakan secara ekonomis. Dari aspek bahan tanaman dan budi daya, saat ini tanaman jarak pagar masih belum banyak diketahui. Bahkan, jarak pagar masih dianggap sebagai tanaman yang belum didomestikasikan secara penuh seperti ditunjukkan oleh fakta bahwa sebagian besar genotipe jarak pagar di dunia bijinya toksik sehingga ampas bijinya yang kaya protein tidak dapat langsung digunakan sebagai pakan ternak. Kematangan buah tanaman ini tidak serempak yang menyebabkan biaya panen tinggi. Rasio bunga betina dan bunga jantan yang rendah menyebabkan produktivitas bijinya rendah. Biji jarak pagar mengandung asam lemak poli tidak jenuh yang konsentrasinya perlu diturunkan untuk meningkatkan mutu minyak diesel. Pengetahuan genomika memungkinkan untuk mengetahui komposisi genom, komposisi dan fungsi gen, dan pemetaan genetik (gen/QTL) unggul jarak pagar. Pemahaman ini diperlukan agar genetika tanaman jarak pagar dapat dimanipulasi secara sistematis. Teknologi rekayasa genetika potensial diaplikasikan untuk perbaikan: arsitektur tanaman, karakter agronomis, kualitas biji, produktivitas, dan kualitas minyak. Tujuan tulisan ini ialah mengulas tentang pendekatan bioteknologi dan genomika untuk perbaikan genetik tanaman jarak pagar. Aplikasi bioteknologi memungkinkan untuk mempercepat program pemuliaan tanaman jarak pagar. Dengan bahan tanaman unggul, jarak pagar dapat dibudidayakan sehingga bermanfaat secara ekonomis dengan mutu minyak yang cocok sebagai bahan baku biodiesel.</p></jats:p
Gen dan QTL Pengendali Umur pada Kedelai
<p>Traits that control time of flowering and<br />maturity in soybean determine harvesting time of a soybean<br />cultivar. In Indonesia, early maturing soybean cultivars are<br />important at short period growing seasons due to the water<br />shortage in dry planting season. Shorter period of growing<br />season would increase the crop harvest index. Genetic<br />diversity of the present soybean germplasm collection is<br />low. Diversity improvement through introduction from<br />countries with four seasons faced difficulty due to<br />differences in growth adaptability. Technology for developing<br />germplasm with a broader adaptation will facilitate<br />germplasm movement from a more diverse environmental<br />growth. The objective of this review was to describe how<br />the time of flowering and maturity are controlled in soybean.<br />The review is supported by flowering time mechanism of<br />the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana as the genetics of<br />flowering time has been intensively studied in this model<br />plant. Transition from vegetative to reproductive development<br />is the outcome of the activation of genes responsible<br />for floral organ formation. Initial activation is generally the<br />result of environmental cues indicating the appropriate time<br />to flower. Studies from Arabidopsis showed that transition<br />from vegetative to reproductive stage is complex involving<br />many genes and several genetic pathways. In soybean, time<br />of flowering and maturity are controlled by at least nine<br />genes, E1 to E8 and Dt1. The genes interact with daylength<br />and temperature. Major and minor QTLs controlling the<br />traits were identified using various mapping populations.<br />The major QTLs were detected at various populations with<br />diverse genetic backgrounds tested at diverse environmenttal<br />conditions. Some of the QTLs were associated with the E<br />genes and some others were not. Several Arabidopsis<br />flowering gene homologous sequences were also mapped<br />on the soybean genome. The E gene markers and the QTLs<br />with large effect for reproductive traits are breeder targets<br />for breeding and development of soybean photoperiod<br />insensitive germplasm. Genes for flowering time isolated<br />from Arabidopsis can be used to develop transgenic<br />soybean with broader adaptation. Technology for development<br />of soybean germplasm with broader adaptation will<br />facilitate the soybean germplasm movement from diverse<br />environmental growth conditions to support systematic and<br />sustainable national soybean breeding programs.</p></jats:p
Not just for spies: managing multiple identities for fun and profit
Social networking and media sites such as Facebook and Twitter are the primary communication tools used by many of our clients and colleagues. They provide an excellent opportunity for frank two-way communication. Like spies portrayed in popular movies and TV shows, many of us who use these sites daily do not want our personal and professional lives to collide. Some information professionals even choose to completely avoid social networking sites out of privacy concerns. Fortunately, maintaining the separation is not as difficult as it may seem. This paper highlights a variety of strategies and tools that can be used to manage distinct personal and professional online presences, without becoming subject to confusion, being terminated or having to tie up loose ends. Examples will be drawn from the author’s own online presence as well as some other real-life cases where mistakes were made but successfully navigated
