Judul: Developments of Desmodium spp. as cover crop plant in post mining reclamation.
Abstrak: Mining is one of state revenue source in Indonesia. The topsoil were deployed after the excavation of minerals that usually not form a compact structure, so it is prone to erosion when it rains. One effort to reduce the rate of soil ground erosion is planting cover crops. Cover crops are specifically planted to protect soil from erosion threat of damage and to improve the chemical and physical properties of soil. The Objective of this study is to obtain information about taxonomy and characteristics of cover crop of Desmodium spp. type, to calculate the productivity of cover crop of Desmodium spp. types, and to analyse the response of jabon (Anthocephalus cadamba) seedlings growth to soil cover crops Desmodium spp. This research was conducted in three stages, the first stage is multiplication Desmodium spp. and observation on its characteristic, second is planting in the nursery to measure the rate of plant growth and productivity, and the lastly is planting Desmodium spp. with jabon seedling to observe its effects on jabon seedling. The research data is analyzed with statistics to observe the effect of its treatment and treatment combination of growth parameters of jabon seedling, if significant then further tested DMRT (Duncan's Multiple Range Test) with a 5% significance level. Study results shows that Desmodium spp. plant has different characteristics among species. D. heterophyllum type is the highest type of its individual accretion compared with D. ovalifolium and D. triflorum. Desmodium spp. plant have different productivity among species. D. heterophyllum type has the highest productivity compared with other types, where the speed of land cover, plant growth rate, and the highest biomass production compared with D. ovalifolium and D. triflorum. Treatment interaction of Desmodium spp. with soil type can increase the diameter, height, number of leaves of jabon seedlings with the greatest sequence is planting with D. triflorum, D. heterophyllum, D. ovalifolium, and control, so that it can recommended to be planted together.

Abstrak: The main problem of reclamation activities in the postmining land was marginal land that could not support the growth of plants, due to pH and the low level of nutrient. So that, the selection of local species which adaptable and the appropriate silviculture treatment was needed. Jabon (A. cadamba) is one of local tree species that had high prospect, because jabon classified into fast growing species, able to adapted various site conditions, and the silviculture treatment was relatively easy. Dolomit and gypsum were materials that contained of Ca (Calcium), which able being applied to increase the soil pH. This objectives research was to determine the effect of dolomit, crude gypsum and manure fertilizer on the growth of Jabon in postmining land at PT. Tunas Inti Abadi. The fertilizers treatment consisted of three treatments. There were 2 kg of manure fertilizer (N), 2 kg of manure fertilizer + 200 g of dolomit (KN), and 2 kg of manure fertilizer + gipsum 200 g (GN). The parameters that be measured were diameter, height, crown diameter, percentage of living. The combination of dolomit and manure fertilizear had significant effect on the 95% confidence interval the diameter of Jabon.

Judul: Infeksi Virus Parainfluenza Pada Anjing
Abstrak: Virus parainfluenza anjing termasuk famili Paramyxoviridae, berbentuk pleomorf dengan ukuran bervariasi (bergaris tengah antara 100-500 nm), berpembungkus peka ether, berisi genom RNA dan secara serologis mempunyai kesamaan dengan virus SV-5 kera; dikenak sebagai salah satu kausa penting dari sindrom "kennel cough". Infeksinya dapat mengenai anjing semua umur yang belum pernah terinfeksi atau mendapatkan vaksinasi mengakibatkan gejala klinis ringan yang terbatas pada traktus respirasi atu infeksi yang secara klinis tidak memperlihatkan gejala nyata. Gejala klinis yang nampak setelah masa inkubasi (1-5 hari) terlewati berupa batuk yang tidak berat selama beberapa hari, berbagai tingkat tonsilitis dan pharyngitis dan kadang-kadang ditemukan kenaikan temperatur rektal antara 1-2 derajat C dari temperatur normal rat-rata. Anjing terinfeksi mengandung virus pada traktus respirasi bagian atas dan bawah serta limfonoduli sampai hari ke 9 setelah infeksi. Penyebaran virus antar anjing terjadi secara aerogen.
