Judul: Seleksi Tanaman Padi Transgenik Generasi T1 dan T2 yang Membawa Kandidat Gen Toleransi Aluminium
Abstrak: The use of aluminum (Al) tolerant rice variety is one of the alternative solutions to solve the food crop production problem in acid soils. The Al tolerant rice variety can be developed by genetic engineering. The T1 and T2 generation of transgenic rice has been developed from the transformation of rice using B11 gene, which was an Al tolerance gene candidate. However the true transgenic rice carrying the B11 gene has not been confirmed yet. This research was conducted to select and verify the T1 and T2 transgenic rice which contained the Al tolerant gene candidate. The result showed that the selection media containing paromomycin antibiotic could select the putatif transgenic rice without albinism effect that appeared in selection using canamycin antibiotic. The selection obtained true transgenic lines. The PCR analysis using the primers developed from nptII gene showed a 600 bp DNA band in the transgenic plant, but it was none in the wild type. The plant height and number of tiller characters were not significantly different between the wild type and the transgenic plant.

Judul: Stabilitas Sisipan Kandidat Gen Toleran Aluminium (B11) pada Padi Transgenik Asal IR64 Hasil Infeksi In-Planta
Abstrak: Rice variety IR64 is categorized as a sensitive variety to Aluminum (Al) toxicity. Development of Al-tolerant rice varieties can be done by inserting Al-tolerant gene, which one of them is B11 gene that has been succesfully isolated from Al-tolerant rice genotipe, Hawara Bunar. The B11 gene has been succesfully introduced to plant rice variety IR64 through in-planta technique and produced T1 generation. The objective of this research was to evaluate the stability of B11 gene insertion on T1, T2, and T3 generation derived from IR64 transformed variety through antibiotic selection, molecular analysis, and plant phenotipic observation. Antibiotic selection was done using hygromycin antibiotic with concentration of 20 mg/l. Gene insertion analysis was done with Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technique. The result showed that B11 gene had been integrated in T0, T1, and T2 generation of IR64 transgenic plant. The B11 gene integration in T0 did not cause a chimera. The antibiotic selection showed that antibiotic-tolerant and sensitive ratio of T1 and some T2 and T3 populations was 3:1. Some of the T2 and T3 generation populations showed homozigous on B11 gene. The vegetative and reproductive characters of transgenic plant were not different to the wild tipe

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.
