Judul: Pengelolaan Proses Produksi dan Pasca Panen Selada (Lactuca sativa L.) Secara Aeroponik dan Hidroponik Deep Flow Technique di Amazing Farm, Lembang, Bandung.
Abstrak: Vegetables are needed by human being as their consumption to fulfill their daily nutrition, that’s why the opportunity of vegetables production is widely opened to be developed. This opportunity drives people to use the suitable technique to gain optimum production as well as the quality, quantity and continuity, such as using aeroponic and hydroponic system. The internship was implemented in Amazing Farm, Field Cikahuripan 1, Lembang, Bandung. Amazing farm is one of the leading companies in horticultural products. The purposes of the internship were to get working experience and practical knowledge about production of aeroponic and hydroponic lettuce (green curly, lollorossa and romaine), discover the difference between aeroponic and hydroponic system, get management and post harvest experience and also help the company to solve problems in cultivation technique. Aeroponic system can produce lettuce crop better than hydroponic does. The post harvest observation of aeroponic and hydroponic lettuce didn’t show significant diference. The business analysis of lettuce production shows that aeroponic lettuce is more promising than hydroponic, although it needs large amount of capital for the investment.

Judul: Efisiensi Produksi Sayuran Daun dengan Sistem Hidroponik Nutrient Film Technique (NFT) di PT Amazing Farm, Lembang, Jawa Barat.
Abstrak: Efisiensi produksi berbagai jenis komoditas sayuran dengan sistem hidroponik Nutrient Film Technique (NFT) dari produsen dalam negeri perlu ditingkatkan dengan perencanaan dan pengelolaan produksi yang baik. Kegiatan magang bertujuan mempelajari aspek efisiensi produksi sayuran daun di PT Amazing Farm. Magang dilaksanakan bulan Februari sampai Juni 2016 di PT Amazing Farm, Lembang, Jawa Barat. Metode pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan mengikuti kegiatan budidaya sampai proses pascapanen dan melakukan pengamatan aspek khusus mengenai kriteria panen, kehilangan hasil, heat unit dan nilai keuntungan produk. Hasil yang diperoleh kemudian diolah dengan dua cara, cara pertama menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap dengan tiga ulangan dan dianalisis dengan uji DMRT. Cara kedua menggunakan uji t-student. Komoditas yang diamati berjumlah 19 varietas, 16 varietas dari Spesies Lactuca sativa dan 3 varietas dari Brassica oleraceae. Kegiatan produksi sayuran di PT Amazing Farm meliputi pesemaian, pindah tanam 1 (2-17 HST; EC 1), pindah tanam 2 (17-32 HST; EC 1-1,2), pindah tanam 3 (32-49 HST; EC 1,2-2), dan pascapanen primer. Umur panen sayuran daun berdasarkan SOP perusahaan pada spesies Lactuca sativa (selada) 49 HST sedangkan spesies Brassica oleraceae (kubis-kubisan) 52 HST. Kehilangan hasil yang disebabkan oleh perompesan daun yang tua lebih banyak dibandingkan dengan perompesan karena serangan hama dan penyakit. Kehilangan hasil yang disebabkan oleh perompesan daun mencapai 4-46% tergantung varietas yang diamati. Nilai keuntungan produk paling tinggi pada spesies Lactuca sativa yaitu var Crispa cv Salanove green oak leaf dan pada Brassica oleraceae pada var achepala cv Kale hijau.

Judul: Mitochondrial DNA Gene Organization and Phylogenetic Relationship of Naja siamensis
Abstrak: Naja siamensis is one of Asiatic cobra in the Family of Elapidae, known as a cryptic snake. It has many morphological variations that lead to misidentification. Misidentification can cause the wrong concept in developing antivenom types due to high snakebite cases occur in Thailand. Thus, an accurate species identification using a molecular approach is crucially required. Mitochondrial DNA has been used widely in snake molecular studies. These studies were aimed to determine the arrangement of the N. siamensis partial mitochondrial genes using reptile-oriented primers and to reveal the phylogenetic relationship among other species of Asian cobra. DNA extraction was carried out based on the standard DNA salting-out protocol and was conducted by bioinformatics analysis using BLASTn and MEGA 6 software. Gene annotation was performed against N. kaouthia complete genome. A total of 3121 bp of N. siamensis mtDNA genes were sequenced consisting of partial of six regions: 16S rRNA, ND1, tRNA-Ile, CRII region, tRNA-Leu, tRNA-Gln, and COI genes. The mtDNA gene organization of N. siamensis was predicted to has a similar pattern with the common Elapidae mtDNA gene organization. This study showed that there is a monophyletic form in Naja genus and N. kaouthia is the closest species with N. siamensis based on partial 16S rRNA and ND1 gene.
