Abstract

The presence of insect pollinators plays an important role in the pollination process. This is because the insects move the stamens from the anthers to the stigma, causing fertilization. The purpose of this study is to analyse the diversity of insect pollinators in vegetable plantations in 3 villages at Kecamatan Dolat Rayat, Kabupaten Karo. Sampling was carried out on five types of plantation: bean plant, chayote, peas, eggplant, and chilli. At each sampling point, five plots of 1,2m x 10m were established with a spacing of 2m between the plots. Insect pollinator observation technology using sampling scan method combined with insect net. The results of the study identified 7 families of 10 species and 880 individuals. Diversity index that used is The Shannon-Weiner with an average of H^= ± 1,20 in the villages. The most prevalent order was Apidae, and the most abundant species was Apis cerana. The greatest variety of pollen hybrids was found on chayote plantations. Flower anthesis is used as determinant of this observation.

Abstract

Mold is one of the microorganisms that causes damage to cocoa fruit because it produces mycotoxins as secondary metabolites that can lower the crop yield. One type of pathogenic mold that destroys cocoa fruit is Aspergillus flavus. A. flavus produces aflatoxin B1 which is the most potent hepatotoxin and carcinogen to humans. Amongst the most effective way to avoid alpha-toxin contamination in cocoa beans is to inhibit the growth of A. flavus in the beans. However, the use of pesticides and fungicides can increase the development of resistant strains of fungi and have a negative impact on the environment and human health. Therefore, we need other alternatives such as bio-control agents using antagonistic microorganisms, including yeasts. Thus, this study aimed at characterization of yeasts isolated from the fermented cocoa beans (Theobroma cacao) from Lampung, Indonesia, and evaluation of their ability in inhibiting the growth of Aspergillus flavus UNJCCF-55. The methods used were yeast screening, dual culture technique for antagonistic test, and morphological characterization. The 37º C-growth screening gave 89 out of 98 yeast isolates. The subsequent antagonist test resulted in 13 isolates with the highest inhibition zone against A. flavus UNJCCF-55. These yeast isolates were macroscopically of smooth surface, butyrous texture, milky white colour, irregular edges, and convex elevation. Microscopic observation showed the isolates having oval cell shape, asexual reproduction of budding, and non-hyphae structure

Abstract

The presence of pathogenic molds in post-harvested cocoa beans poses a significant problem to most Indonesian farmers. Pathogenic molds secrete phytopathogenic toxins which cause rotting, seriously damaging the cocoa fruits. The common pathogenic molds found in damaged cocoa beans are Phytophthora palmivora and Phytophthora megakarya. These molds are so far controlled by using chemical pesticides, whose the long-term use is potentially harmful to human health and environment. Thus, healthier and safer alternative is needed, especially using biological agents such as yeasts. Some yeasts produce cellulose-degrading enzymes that can possibly break down the fungal cell wall which is composed mostly of the polysaccharides chitin and glucan. In this study, yeasts were isolated during the cocoa fermentation process, followed by screening for cellulolytic activity using direct planting and paste method, and subsequent antagonistic testing by double culture technique. Out of 128 yeast isolates, 77 possessed cellulase activity, with 6 of them having the highest activity index. Antagonistic activity test of these 6 isolates (C1.0.4, C1.1.3, C2.3.10, C2.3.14, C3.5.11, and C3.3.1) against the pathogenic molds resulted in isolate C3.3.1 showing the highest inhibition percentage from the 2nd to 8th day of incubation.

Abstract

Dark septate endophytes (DSE) are a group of ascomycetes that live in intracellular and extracellular root tissue to facilitate plant growth and stress tolerance in extreme environments. However, little is known about the DSE fungi isolated from certain plant roots such as Pteris vittata, especially under drought condition. Pteris vittata is known for its ability to live in various types of substrates and ecosystems. In this study, we obtained DSE fungi from the fern roots Pteris vittata collected from the area of Universitas Negeri Jakarta. DSE isolation was carried out by inoculating the Pteris vittata fern roots with a size of 0.5 cm on the surface of sterilized PDA media for 5-7 days at 27&deg-C. Observations were made every 24h using a stereo microscope to see the first hyphae appeared from the plant roots. The results exhibited 13 samples of roots with hyphae colonization and were suspected to be DSE fungi. Of the 13 root isolates, only 3 isolate (PP2, PP4A and PPB) showed the DSE growth (23%) with melanin pigment. The morphological characteristics of endophytic DSE fungi collected from Pteris vittata roots represented septate hyphae, brownish to black colony color, and having a growing zone, and a velvety texture. For the isolate PP2, it showed sclerotia while for the isolate PP4, it exhibited light brown colonies.

Abstract

Pollination is a critical for food production and human livelihoods in West Kalimantan. Currently, stingless
bees are major pollination service provider to many agricultural crops. However, there is clear evidence of recent declines
in stingless bees and it is urgent need to look for alternative and native pollinators. West Kalimantan is rich with native
pollinator such as stingless bees. Currently, at least six species were inventoried and could be used to pollinate several
agricultural crops such as starfruit, guava, citrus, mango, watermelon, durian, and coconut. Nowadays, global attention
focuses on the threat of decreasing numbers of plants and pollination species, which have a direct impact on ecosystem
function, especially to local and global stingless bee biodiversity. Due to the current evidence of the decreasing number
of stingless bees accumulated in taxonomic and geographical scales, we decided to observe the role of stingless bees
cultivation based on species and habitat approaches. Species biodiversity, population size, and growth rates are
influenced by Spatio-temporal variations all of them have an important role in their vulnerability to extinction. Several
issues to be considered before stingless bees can be utilized as pollination service provider in agricultural ecosystem.
These issues included conservation of their species, capacity building and research on their biology, ecology and
behavior. Out of these, six species - Tetragonula laeviceps, T. drescheri, T. biroi, Homotrigona apicalis, Heterotrigona
itama, and Lepidotrigona terminata, were able to be utilized to pollinate several agricultural crops in West Kalimantan.

Abstract

Reptile is a group of animal consists of testudines, crocodiles, lizards and snakes. Most reptiles are capable to occupy wide range of habitats with different environmental conditions. One of the preferred habitats for reptiles is river. Boyong-Code River is one of the rivers which flow across the Province of Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta (DIY). Research on the diversity of lizards and snakes in the Boyong-Code River has been done in 2012. This research is aimed to acquire new data on the diversity of herpetofauna in the Boyong-Code River and compare it with 2012 data research. The comparison purpose is to monitor the species diversity dynamics after 5 years. The data of herpetofauna diversity were acquired using a combination of several methods, i.e., VES (Visual Encounter Survey), riverbank cruising and transect. Sampling area in 2012 and 2017 were divided three four locations, i.e., upstream, midstream, and downstream. Species diversity of lizards and snakes in the Boyong-Code River in 2017 is consisted of 8 species of lizards (lacertilians: squamates: reptiles) and 4 species of snakes (serpents: squamates: reptiles). Species diversity dynamics is equal for lizards in 2012 and 2017- meanwhile there were more species of snakes in 2012 compare to the 2017.

Abstract

Nowadays, finding novel bioactive compounds, primarily from microbial sources, is very challenging. One of the strategies to solve this problem is to isolate the bacteria from the neglected and underexplored areas. The deep sea is one of the underexplored areas on Earth with the characteristics of extreme environments such as high pressure, low temperature, less oxygen concentration, and lack of light intensity. A novel actinobacterium, ASO4wetT, was isolated from the sponge in the deep sea collected in the North Atlantic Ocean. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain ASO4wetT was related to the genus Streptomyces and exhibited the closest similarities to Streptomyces karpasiensis K413T (98.87 %), Streptomyces glycovorans YIM M 10366T (98.38 %), and Streptomyces abyssalis YIM M 10400T (97.53 %). The primary menaquinone of strain ASO4wetT was MK-9(H8) and its major fatty acids were iso-C16:0, anteiso-C15:0, and iso-C15:0. The genomic DNA G + C content of strain ASO4wetT was 70.24 mol% with a genome size of 7,377,472 bp comprised of 6,332 coding sequences, 59 tRNA genes, and six rRNA operons.

Abstract

An exploratory research has been carried out on Indonesian indigenous Cyanobacteria in an effort to collect these isolates to be used as learning materials for microalgae biodiversity. Cyanobacteria are known as photosynthetic bacteria and prokaryotic microalgae. The members of the cyanobacteria found were isolated, cultured, identified, and collected. The location for sampling cyanobacteria is the UI Depok campus area which consists of water from small lakes (situ) and soil. The results showed that 22 strains of Cyanobacteria were isolated and cultured properly, and consisted of 12 genera/species, namely Merismopedia sp. (1 isolate), Synechococcus sp. (1 isolate), Limnothrix redekei (1 isolate), Oscillatoria sp.4 (1 isolate), Oscillatoria sp.5 (1 isolate), Pseudanabaena sp. (3 isolates), Nostoc sp. (4 isolates), Anabaena sp. (1 isolate), Scytonema sp. (1 isolate), Westiellopsis sp. (1 isolate), Stigonema sp. (1 isolate), and Hapalosiphon sp. (6 isolates). Twenty-two (22) strains were then collected and treated by subculture method. Of the 11 genera found, there are 3 genera that have been known as genera that have potential as sources of biobased materials, biofuels, biofertilizers, and others, namely Synechococcus, Nostoc, and Anabaena.

Abstract

The cultivation of Subang Isolated Scenedesmus in tube-shaped photobioreactors (PBRs) with the exposure of audible sound (music) was done. The study was done to know the effect of different music to the growth and culture appearance of Subang Isolated Scenedesmus. Subang Isolated Scenedesmus itself is Indonesia^s indigenous microalgae from Subang, West Java. This study was using three groups of Subang Isolated Scenedesmus PBRs. One group was control group and not exposed to any sound (Control-PBR), one group was exposed to music called ^Blues for Elle^ (PBR-A), and another group was exposed to music called ^Bloom^ (PBR-B). Based on 8 days of observation, it is known that Subang isolated Scenedesmus in PBR-A has the highest average cell density at the peak phase (1.81±0.16 x 105 cells/mL), highest growth rate (26.22 % per day), and most intense green color compared to Subang isolated Scenedesmus in PBR-B and Control-PBR. Related-Samples Friedman^s Two-Way ANOVA by Ranks test has proven that the average cell density value of Subang isolated Scenedesmus in Control-PBR, PBR-A, and PBR-B are not the same (α = 95%, sig = 0.013). Therefore, different audible sound (music) with certain intensity and frequency may affect the growth of Subang Isolated Scenedesmus differently.

Abstract

One of Rawa Besar Small Lake^s roles for the surrounding community is as a fishing spot. Locals would often go fishing at the edges of the small lake. The ability of a lake to provide fishes to catch is partly due to the availability of food in the ecosystem, most importantly the microalgae community as the main producer in the freshwater food web. This concept is used in aquaculture as a way to obtain a more sustainable ingredient for feedant. Microalgae are used for aquaculture feedant due to its nutritional value. However, it is important to assess the safety and suitability of microalgae used for feedant due to the difference in toxicity and nutritional value of various microalgae species. It is also important to create a plan for a large-scale culture system suitable for various potential microalgae species, in order to produce algal meal feedstock in a viable and sustainable way. Observation of the water samples taken from Rawa Besar Small Lake shown that potential microalgae species like Kirchneriella and Arthrospira lives in Rawa Besar Small Lake. However, toxic microalgae species like Planktothrix has been found in said water sample as well. Isolation of potential species is necessary in order to produce a healthy feedant for aquaculture out of Rawa Besar Small Lake^s microalgae community.

Abstract

Habitat degradation and fragmentation can provide opportunities for succession of non-native species. Mount Merbabu in Central Java is one of the protected areas in Java that has experienced forest degradation and fragmentation, threatening the habitat of the rare primate Javan Langur Fuscous Presbytis comata fredericae. Currently, non-native plant species have created a lot of cover on forest soils. This forest land cover can lead to ecological consequences, such as competition for nutrients and space with native plant species. Characteristics of non-native species have the ability to grow fast, reproduce quickly, spread widely, and have a wide range of tolerance to environmental conditions. This will affect the forest ecosystem and affect feed intake for Javan Fuscous Langur. Our research aims to study the kinds of non-native plant species. The method used is a square plot with a size of 5x5m with a point spread by purposive sampling, as many as 100 plots. The results obtained are in the form of a list of non-native plant species and an index of importance. There were 6 non-native plant species found and 25 understory plant species. The index of importance of non-native plant species for overstory plants is quite high, reaching 31% for Acacia decurens, 24% Cupressus arizonica, 21.35% Cupressus lusitanica mill. As for the understory species, the highest important value index is the Ageratina siparia (77.7%) which dominates the area, and Chromolaena odorata (16.97%). This species has the potential to become food for the Javan Lutung Fuscous Presbytis comata fredericae and also a competitor to native plants that affect the stability of the habitat ecosystem of the Javan Lutung Fuscous Presbytis comata fredericae.

Abstract

The threats of environmental problems necessitate urgent attention and action. To solve these problems, the inclusion of Environmental Literacy is recognized as an essential part of the curriculum in Science. Moreover, schools are mandated to be innovative and resourceful in delivering quality, accessible, and relevant education amidst COVID-19. With this, the researchers developed, implemented, and examined the use of Online Learning Modules in an effort to improve the teaching of ecological systems, thereby improving the students^ conceptual understanding and their environmental literacy. The Online Learning Modules on Ecological Systems (OLMES) was designed, developed, and validated for teaching Science to Grade 6 students (n=60). Results revealed that students^ conceptual understanding on ecological systems significantly changed after the exposure to OLMES (t = 21.81) with a large effect size (d=3.07). Improvement on students^ environmental literacy was also evident after the implementation of the study. This is supported by the increased scores on the different variables on environmental literacy survey (ecological knowledge t=12.49, verbal commitment t=5.38, environmental sensitivity t=2.55, environmental feelings t= 3.82, issue analysis and action planning t=13.11, and actual commitment t=4.45). Classroom observations, and students^ responses during interviews and in their reflection logs also showed that the conceptual understanding and environmental literacy of the students had significantly improved after the OLMES implementation. Overall, the evidences provided in this study imply that the use of OLMES contributed to the improvement of teaching practices which resulted to better conceptual understanding and improved environmental literacy among the student participants.

Abstract

Many of biology lessons content is abstract. Pictures, diagrams, and models are some examples of visual representations used by teachers as teaching strategies. Representations facilitate both of teacher and students in learning process. For teacher, representations help teacher in knowledge transfer process. As for students, representation makes it easier for them to understand the content and reduces the possibility of misconceptions. Several studies show that students^ visual representation skills are still very low. The ability of visual representation can be seen from the cognitive activity that appears in the process of understanding the information in the form of a given visualization. The low ability of students^ visual representation is influenced by the lack of use of visual reading strategies which also affect students^ cognitive activities. Another thing that can affect students^ cognitive activity is the use of modeling based learning (MbL). Then, this study purpose was to determine the effect and relationship between visual reading strategies and MbL on cognitive activities in biology learning process. There are fifteen scientific article from the last ten years publications used in this study from credible journal in biology education. The results of this review indicate that visual reading strategies and the use of MbL effect on students^ cognitive activities when studying biology learning content. For example, reduced students^ misconceptions after the use of visual representations and MbL. Therefore, the results of this review can be an input for biology teachers to improve the learning process and maximize students^ learning outcomes in the future.

Abstract

The results of a preliminary study reveal that the ASICC learning model can reduce the collaboration gap between students with different academic abilities. In theory, collaboration requires a strong mental awareness because it is one of form of students to meet learning needs when facing difficulties. This is one of the dimensions of metacognition. Therefore, this study aims to reveal the correlation between collaboration skills and metacognition. The research was carried out in three high schools in East Java by using quasi-experimental research with a non-equivalent pre-post test control group design. Metacognitive data was measured using the Metacognitive Awareness Inventory and collaboration was measured using the Collaboration Awareness Inventory. Both instruments were used at the beginning and at the end of the lesson both in the control class and experimental class (the class used the ASICC learning model). Simple correlation analysis was performed with SPSS after the data was declared homogeneous and normal. This research reveals that there is a positive correlation. However, the correlation between collaboration and metacognition was moderate (r=0,59). Further research is needed to uncover the factors that influence the collaboration of students with different academic abilities.

Abstract

A preliminary study revealed that prospective Biology teacher students had difficulties in understanding the concept of plant relationships. This is because the learning design still does not use the right context. This study aims to determine the role of the use of context in helping students understand the concept of plant relationships. The context used in this research is various types of local medicinal plants in Kediri. This research was conducted by using design research (validation studies) in the Biosystematics course class. There were three stages of the research: preliminary design, teaching experiment, and retrospective analysis. This study reveals that (1) the context of the types of medicinal plants used in learning should be more than three families- (2) using the plants that can be collected directly by students so that they can be observed and collected in the laboratory- (3) the stage of learning design activities were determining goals, collecting the various herbs, observing samples as OTU (Operating Taxonomy Units), tabulating data, constructing relationship trees with a phenetic approach, interpreting and communicating the results.
