Abstrak: Prolong phosphorus fertilization has result in high unavailable P residue in soil. In this condition, further P fertilization will not result in higher plant productivity known as leveling off. P in soil exists in inorganic and organic forms, and in broad-range of availability from freely available to unavailable forms. The objective of this research was to study the effects of organic matter on rapidly available P extracted with 0.5 M NaHCO3 in submerged soil. Organic matter treatments were 0, 500, 750, 1000, 2000, and 5000 kg/ha. Research unit was 200 g soil (105oC ovendry weight) in a 10 cm diameter pot. Everyweek for 5 weeks, subsamples of each research unit was extracted for determining NaHCO3-P fraction following Tiessen and Moir 1993 procedure. The results showed that NaHCO3-P increased with increasing organic matter treatments and submersion time. Some dynamics, however, were found that likely related to redox dynamics in submerged soil.

Abstrak: The low availability and easily fixed phosphorus (P) in soil resulted in heavy and continuous P fertilization by farmers, leading to accumulation of residue-P in soil. In such condition, further P fertilization will not result in higher plant productivity known as leveling off. One way to increase the availability of residual P in soil is to add organic matter. There are various forms of P in the soil, from soluble to unavailable phosphorus can also be differenciated as inorganic and organic forms, where the sum of both referred as total-P. The objective of this research was to study the changes of slow-available phosphorus fraction in a submerged soil ameliorated with organic matter effect of organic matter (extracted with 0.1 M NaOH). Research unit was 200 g (oven-dry, 105°C) in a 10 cm pot. The soil was treated with 0, 500, 750, 1000, 2000, and 5000 kg/ha, and submerged for 5 weeks. Every week for 5 weeks, subsample of each research unit was extracted for determination of NaOH-P following Tiessen and Moir 1993 procedure. The results showed that in general NaOH-Pi, NaOH-Po, and NaOH-Pt increase with increasing organic matter treatments. There was a dynamic pattern of NaOH-Pt, NaOH-Pi, and NaOH-Po with the time of submersion, in which in general NaOH-P initially decreased, increased, then finally decreased.

Judul: Beberapa aspek anatomi alat sirkulasi ruang dada kancil
Abstrak: Telah dilakukan penelitian dengan menggunakan 10 ekor kancil dewasa jantan dan betina dengan tujuan untuk menge- tahui beberapa aspek anatomi alat sirkulasi di dalam ruang dada, meliputi jantung, pembuluh darah yang keluar dan ma- suk jantung serta ukuran-ukuran jantung. Kancil merupakan ruminansia terkecil di dunia, hidup di daerah tropika India, Thailand, Malaysia dan Indonesia bagian barat. Hewan ini dilindungi dan mempunyai prospek yang baik untuk hewan penelitian maupun dibudidayakan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa berat jantung rаta-rata adalah 0.69% dari berat rata-rata kancil. Dan ini mirip pada jantung kuda dan anjing. Bentuk jantung lonjong seperti halnya ruminansia. Demikian pula letaknya di dalam ruang dada seperti pada ruminansia dengan adanya Ligamentum sternopericardiacum. Di dalam ventrikel kanan membersit sebuah Musculus (M.) papillaris dari dindingnya dan tiga sampai empat Musculi (Mm.) papillares dari Septum interventriculare. Hanya dua buah Mm. papillares yang berukuran besar dibersitkan dari dinding ventrikel kiri. Percabangan Arteri (A.) coronaria sinistra lebih dominan dari pada A. coronaria dextra. Sedangkan A. sub clavia sinistra dicabangkan langsung dari aorta di dorso- caudal pembersitan Truncus (Tr.) brachiocephalicus…
