Judul: Keragaman genetik dan adaptabilitas gandum (Triticum aestivum L.) introduksi di lingkungan tropis
Abstrak: The objective of this study was to obtain information on genetic variabilitiy and adaptability of introduced wheat varieties in tropical conditions. The research was carried out at field station research of Balithi, Cipanas and Biotrop, Bogor, Indonesia in May 2010 - February 2011. Genetic material tested was the Oasis/Skauz//4*BCN var -28, HP 1744, Laj/Mo88, and Rabe/M88 (introduced from Turkey), Basribey, Alibey, and Menemen (introduced from India), G-21, G- 18 and H-2 (introduced from CIMMYT), and Selayar and Dewata (national varieties) as check varieties. The results showed that plant height, panicle length, spikelet number, grain weight per panicle and 1000 grain weight had high heritability value. Genotype (G), location (L), and the interaction GXL had significant effect on grain weight. Grain weight variation of introduced wheat varieties was mainly due to interaction between genotype and location. Based on the regression coefficient, Rabe/Mo88 showed good adaptation in the highland (Cipanas), whereas Oasis/Skauz //4 * BCN var-28 had good adaptation in the lowland (Bogor). The first bilinear AMMI model accounted 93.6% variation. Biplot analysis showed that Menemen, Basribey, Alibey, and Selayar classified as stable varieties with high yields, whereas Laj/Mo88 was stable with lower yield than the average yield of all locations. G-18 adapted well in Manado and G-21 to adapt well in Muneng. There was no superior genotype in all locations.

Judul: Variability of Agronomic Traits of Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Lines in Two Agroecosystems in Indonesia
Abstrak: Gandum (Triticum aestivum L.) merupakan komoditas pertanian yang penting di Indonesia yang dimanfaatkan sebagai bahan pangan dan pakan. Sebagai bahan pangan, gandum memiliki peran penting dalam pembuatan tepung terigu yang keberadaannya belum dapat digantikan oleh tepung lain pada beberapa jenis makanan karena karakteristik kekenyalan yang hanya dimiliki oleh tepung yang berbahan dasar gandum. Penelitian gandum di Indonesia telah menghasilkan beberapa varietas diantaranya adalah Selayar, Nias, Dewata, Timor, Guri-1, Guri-2, Guri-3 Agritan, Guri-4 Agritan, Guri-5 Agritan dan Guri 6-UNAND. Keseluruhan genotipe ini memiliki daya adaptasi yang baik pada lingkungan dengan ketinggian >1000 m dpl. Persilangan varietas-varietas gandum tropis yang dilepas di Indonesia dalam rangka memperoleh segregan transgresif, memperoleh pasangan biparental dengan koefisien keragaman genetik tertinggi pada persilangan HP 1744/Selayar. Hasil persilangan ini yang digunakan sebagai material genetik dalam penelitian ini. Penelitian dilakukan pada dua lokasi yaitu di dataran tinggi (Cipanas, 1120 m dpl) dan dataran dengan ketinggian menengah (Cisarua, 600 m dpl) menggunakan rancangan kelompok lengkap teracak (RKLT) augmented. Empat varietas pembanding yaitu Guri 1, Guri 2, Guri 3 dan Selayar digunakan pada masing-masing lokasi dan diulang sebanyak lima kali. Total galur yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah 50 galur HP/Se generasi F6. Terdapat 16 karakter agronomi yang diamati pada tiap lokasi. Analisis ragam tiap lokasi, pendugaan nilai heritabilitas, analisis nilai interaksi GxE dan penentuan tingkat toleransi berdasarkan indeks sensitivitas stress (Stress Sensitivity Index – SSI) dilakukan untuk memperoleh informasi mengenai keragaman galur gandum pada dua lokasi penelitian. Penelitian di dataran tinggi (Cipanas, 1120 m dpl) menunjukkan adanya nilai heritabilitas tinggi pada karakter umur daun bendera (78,07%), panjang daun bendera (64,59%), umur berbunga (75,48%), umur panen (59,53%), dan jumlah spikelet (76,65%). Heritabilitas kategori sedang ditemukan pada karakter periode pengisian biji (37,58%). Sementara itu penelitian di dataran rendah (Cisarua, 600 m dpl) menunjukkan adanya nilai heritabilitas sedang pada karakter jumlah spikelet (35,11%), bobot biji malai utama (35,66%), dan bobot 1000 biji (46,76%). Tidak ditemukan adanya interaksi GxE pada seluruh karakter yang diamati menunjukkan bahwa keragaman fenotipik yang teramati lebih besar disebabkan oleh pengaruh lingkungan. GxE yang tidak nyata juga dapat pula disebabkan oleh minimnya variasi famili material genetik karena hanya berasal dari persilangan tunggal antara HP1744 dan Selayar. Seleksi berdasarkan nilai SSI menurut karakter bobot biji malai utama menunjukkan bahwa dari galur-galur yang diuji terdapat 14 galur yang dikategorikan sebagai toleran., Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is an essential agricultural commodity in Indonesia which is used as food and feed. As a food ingredient, wheat has an important role in making wheat flour, which cannot be replaced by other flour in several types of food because of the elastic characteristics that only flour made from wheat. Wheat research in Indonesia has produced several varieties, including Selayar, Nias, Dewata, Timor, Guri-1, Guri-2, Guri-3 Agritan, Guri-4 Agritan, Guri-5 Agritan and Guri 6-UNAND. These genotypes are adaptable to environments with an altitude of >1000 m above sea level. Research carried out to produce transgressive segregants has obtained a single cross between the HP 1744 accession and the Selayar variety (HP/Se) with the highest genetic variability coefficient values in the cross results, which was then used as genetic material

Judul: Hamiltonian formulation for linear waves motion in two layers fluid
Abstrak: The surface wave could be considered as a wave that separates two fluids, namely water and air. Based on this assumption, it is introduced the interfacial wave, a wave between two layers of fluid with different density. The formulation of interfacial waves motion begins with deriving the base equation of irrotational ideal fluid. Furthermore, according to irrotational fluid assumption, the base equation can be stated in velocity potential. In this derivation, the fluids domain is assumed to be restricted by rigid lid boundary conditions, both at the upper and lower limit. Therefore, the interfacial waves motion can be explained in a hamiltonian formulation. In the hamiltonian formulation, total energy is defined as the sum of kinetic and potential energy. The hamiltonian system is obtained from reduction of kinetic energy by using the Dirichlet Neumann Operator. The resulted kinetic energy equation is nonlinear. Therefore, this form is linearized by first part of the Taylor expansion. This linearization gives a dispersion relation of linear wave. Based on this dispersion relation, the phase speed of the linear wave depends on the density ratio of the two layers fluid.
