Judul: Dinamika Sporulasi Genus Fungi Mikoriza Arbuskula Hasil Penangkaran Dari Bawah Tegakan Hutan Tanaman Jabon (Anthocephalus cadamba Roxb Miq.)
Abstrak: The degraded land generally is not productive so land reparation is needed, one of them is establishing forest plant. Developed many forest plants are planted forests jabon (Anthocephalus cadamba Roxb Miq.). Arbuscular myccorhizal fungi (AMF) could increase jabon growth besides fertilizing. Information about AMF diversity and sporulation genus in jabon is still limited. Therefore, the study of AMF sporulation genus dynamics of jabon forest plants needs to be done. The method of this research is picking by sampling the soil from jabon rizosfer and culture pot media. The results showed that the spores density in November until Desember were increased and Desember until January were decreased on Sorgum bicolor and Pueraria javanica. AMF genus that found was Glomus, Acaulospora, and Scutellospora with main genus was Glomus. Effective types of host plants for trapping AMF is Sorgum bicolor.

Judul: Keanekaragaman Fungi Mikoriza Arbuskula di bawah Tegakan Tanaman Agroforestri Jabon (Anthocephalus cadamba Miq.) di Purwakarta, Jawa Barat
Abstrak: Anthocephalus cadamba is a one of tree species from Rubiaceae family that may symbiotic with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). The presence of AMF is very important for the soil nutrient existence, such as P, K, Mg, Fe, and also Mn to increase the growth of plants. The purpose of this research is to identify the diversity of AMF spores under stand of jabon agroforestry plants and to analyze the AMF status on various jabon planting patterns. Spores isolation was taken from soil sample using wet sieving method and decanthing method. Spores from the isolation morfologically identified by observing spores reaction through Melzer’s liquid. The result of this research indicated that soil chemical characteristic on three planting patterns of jabon do not give any concrete effects to the percentage of AMF’s root colonization. There are three genus of AMF found on the research location consist of Glomus sp., Acalauspora sp., and Scutellospora sp. Based on statistical analysis result, the jabon intercropping planting patterns which combining cucumber plants resulting the highest value of both diameter and height growth on various jabon planting patterns.

Judul: Pengujian Virus Newcastle Disease Gen VII Isolat Lapang Sebagai Virus Standar Pada Uji Tantang Vaksin
Abstrak: This study was conducted to determine the standard of Newcastle disease virus Gene VII field isolate as a virus challenge to vaccine test. A virus suspension that has previously been tested by HA test then titrated with EID50 using 30 Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) of 10 day old chicken embryonated eggs. In addition, chicken lethal dose50 (CLD50) test were used to determine the virus titer that could cause 50% death of the chicken population. The CLD50 test was used 25 day-old-chickens (DOC) divided into 5 groups. The virus was diluted from 10-1 to 10-8. The 104 to 10-8 dilution of NDV was infected to every group of chicken via eyedrop and intranasal with 0.1 ml/chicken dosage. Haemagglutination test showed that the allantoic fluid were contain high titers of NDV is 512 HAU. The infective NDV that had been titrated by EID50 test showed the virus titers is 109 EID50/0.1 ml or 1010 EID50/ml and the virus titers of CLD50 test e.i 106.48 CLD50/0.1 ml or 107.48 CLD50/ml. These results can be concluded that the NDV Gene VII field isolates were most appropriate to be used as a standard virus to vaccine test
