Abstrak: Pandemi COVID-19 berdampak terjadinya fluktuasi terhadap pergerakan harga saham, dan sangat mempengaruhi kondisi ekonomi begitupun reaksi investor terhadap kebijakan right issue yang akan mempengaruhi minat jual beli saham. Studi ini mengamati perkembangan aktivitas pasar di mana investor bereaksi terhadap informasi dengan mempertimbangkan sifat dinamis pasar modal melalui bullish dan bearish sebelum maupun selama pandemi COVID-19. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi periode bullish dan bearish di Bursa Efek Indonesia periode 2017-2020, mengidentifikasi pengaruh COVID-19 terhadap aksi right issue, menganalisis perbedaan rata-rata excess return dan likuiditas saham yang diukur dengan bid-ask spread sebelum dan sesudah pengumuman right issue masa sebelum dan selama pandemi COVID-19, kemudian menganalisis pengaruh right issue pada dividen per share yang akan diterima oleh pemegang saham masa sebelum dan selama pandemi COVID-19, serta menguji apakah pasar modal Indonesia mengikuti the semi strong efficient market. Penelitian ini menggunakan 50 sampel perusahaan dari tahun 2017-2020, metode penarikan sampel menggunakan purposive sampling dan menggunakan event study dengan pendekatan market model, uji normalitasnya adalah Kolmogorov–smirnov, uji statistik menggunakan uji beda dua rata (wilcoxon signed rank test dan paired sample t- test), serta identifikasi bullish dan bearish menggunakan analisis candlestick. Secara umum IHSG menunjukkan pola bullish sebagai tren utama dengan persentase (64.58%) dan bearish (35.42%). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat perbedaan excess return yang signifikan sebelum dan sesudah pengumuman rights issue pada periode sebelum COVID-19 namun tidak terdapat perbedaan excess return selama pandemi COVID-19. Sedangkan hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tidak terdapat perbedaan likuiditas saham sebelum dan sesudah pengumuman rights issue, baik sebelum maupun selama pandemi COVID-19. Begitupun hasil pengujian dividen terdapat perbedaan DPS sebelum dan sesudah pengumuman right issue sebelum COVID-19 yang ditunjukkan dengan perbedaan jumlah rata-rata DPS sebelum dan sesudah right issue, sementara DPS saat COVID-19 tidak terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan, membuktikan bahwa adanya pengaruh pandemi yang menyebabkan perlambatan ekonomi berdampak terhadap pasar modal, sehingga kegiatan penawaran terbatas yang dilakukan perusahaan dengan menerbitkan right issue menyebabkan jumlah lembar saham yang beredar meningkat namun laba yang diperoleh perusahaan tidak mengalami peningkatan. Hasil empiris menunjukkan bahwa pasar modal Indonesia mengikuti bentuk semi strong dari efisiensi pasar., The COVID-19 pandemic has the impact of fluctuations on stock price movements, and greatly affects economic conditions as well as investors' reactions to rights issue policies which will affect the interest in buying and selling shares.

Judul: Karakterisasi gen nifD bakteri metanotrof asal sawah
Abstrak: Methanotrophic bacteria are methane oxidizing bacteria. Some methanotrophs able of fix nitrogen using nitrogenase enzyme. Nitrogenase is composed of two multisubunit metallo protein. Component I contains the active site to nitrogen reduction, encoded by the nifD and nifK genes. Methanotrophic isolates of BGM 3 and BGM 9 had high ammonium accumulation cultured in Nitrate Mineral Salts (NMS) free nitrogen medium. nifD gene fragmens from BGM 3 and BGM 9 were amplified and sequenced. Sequences analyzed using bioinformatics tools such as Blast-N, Blast-X, Expasy Translate Tools, Conserved Domain (CDD) and Scan PROSITE. Phylogenetic construction made using MEGA 4 software. Sequence analysis showed that the nifD sequences of BGM 3 and BGM 9 most closely related to nifD fragmen of Xanthobacter autotropicus PY2. The Identity values of nifD sequences was 92% and 91% respectively. nifD genes from these isolates encode FeMo protein, which was 4Fe4S and 2Fe2S clusters. The nifD gene of BGM 3 and BGM 9 suspected to have same ancestor with the nifD gene of Xanthobacter autotropicus PY2 and Bradyhizobium japonicum USDA 110.
