Judul: Identifikasi dan Uji Patogenisitas Penyebab Penyakit Hawar Daun pada Suren (Toona sureni Merr.)
Abstrak: Pada pesemaian suren di Pongpoklandak, telah ditemukan adanya serangan penyakit daun yang sampai saat ini belum diietahui dengan pasti penyehabnya, namun diduga bempa fungi atau cendawan. Gejala penyakit yang terjadi antara lain adanya gejala nekrotis berupa hawar (blight) yang menyebar pada daun dan secara perlahan meluas menyebabkan daun menjadi layu dan rontok, selain itu pada permukaan daun sehat yang tertular timbul sekumpulan benang-benang halus menyerupai hifa. Penyakit ini bersifat menular dalam warn yang relatif cepat sehingga hampir 70% dari jumlah bibit suren seluruhnya terserang, mulai dari gejala yang ringan sampai berat yang menyebabkan kematian bibit.

Judul: Mekanisme Infeksi dan Identifikasi Dua Isolat  Rhizoctonia spp. Penyebab Hawar Daun pada Toona  sureni
Abstrak: Penelitian tentang mekanisme infeksi dua isolat Rhizoctonia spp. yang menyebabkan penyakit hawar daun pada Toona sureni dilakukan dengan menghitung intensitas penyakit dan persentase kerusakan daun yang dapat dikendalikan oleh tanin. Dua isolat Rhizoctonia spp diidentifikasi untuk mengetahui sampai tingkat spesies. Aktivitas enzim kedua isolat kemudian diuji dengan menggunakan metode DNS dan Bernfeld. Kenudian kedua isolat diinokulasi dengan cara dioles pada permukaan daun. Larutan patogen yang dioles mengandung Media Kentang Cair dengan ka ndungan hifa 106/ml. Larutan tannin dengan konsentrasi 0,5%, 1%, 2%, 3% dan 0% (sebagai kontrol) disemprotkan pada permukaan daun T.sureni setiap dua hari sekali. Persentase tanda penyakit pada permukaan daun kemudian dihitung setiap dua hari sekali selama satu bulan. Penelitian ini menggunakan rancangan percobaan faktorial dalam waktu. Semua perlakuan tanin menunjukkan perbedaan nyata terhadap intensitas penyakit dan berpengaruh terhadap penghambatan intensitas penyakit. Tidak ada efek racun akibat tanin pada persemaian yang diiamati. Konsentarasi tanin terbesar dalam penghambatan penyakit adalah konsentrasi tanin 3% pada perlakuan kedua isolat. Tanin menghambat penyakit dengan cara menghambat aktivitas enzim selulase dan pektinase fungi. Intensitas penyakit terbesar ditemukan pada perlakuan kontrol yang diolesi penyakit. Intensitas terbesar disebabkan Isolat I.

Judul: Enhancement of photon absorbtion on BaxSr1-xTiO3 thin films semiconductor using photonic crystals.
Abstrak: In this research, has been conducted BaxSr1-xTiO3 (BST) thin films manufacturing for mole fraction x = 0.25, 0.35, 0.45, and 0.55; and concentration of 1 molar using chemical solution depositon (CSD) method. The materials, which are used in this research, are barium acetate [Ba(CH3COO)2, 99%], strontium acetate [Sr(CH3COO)2, 99%], titanium isopropoxide [Ti(C12O4H28), 97.999%], gallium trioxide [Ga2O3], 2-methoxyethanol [H3COOCH2CH2OH, 99%] and 1 x 1 cm of transparent conductive oxide (TCO) glass as substrate. Two BST thin films are made that for BST thin films which are doped by 10% galium (BGST) as p-type layer and pure BST solution as n-type. BST solution is made by reacting barium acetate [Ba(CH3COO)2, 99%], strontium acetate [Sr(CH3COO)2, 99%] and titanium isopropoxide [Ti(C12O4H28)] into 2-methoxyethanol solvent [H3COOCH2CH2OH, 99%] in accordance with mass gram for each x value. While, BGST solution is made in the same way as BST solution, plus adding gallium at 10% of the mass of BST. Once all materials are reacted, then vibrated using ultrasonic for 90 minutes, and followed by coating BGST / BST on the TCO substrate. Once the layer is formed, then annealed for 15 hours at temperature of 500 °C with increasing rate of 1.67 oC/minute. Characterizations of BST thin films with or without photonic crystals include the absorbance and transmittance in the visible light spectrum, as well as the electrical photoconductivity characterizations. From BST thin films without photonic crystals indicate that our thin films have light absorption area on almost the entire range of the visible light spectrum even to the infrared range with absorption value over than 67.6%, in addition, it can be seen that the maximum absorbance of BST thin films for all mole fractions lie in blue to green light spectrum region, 457 nm ≤ λ ≤ 570 nm and the minimum in yellow to red light spectrum region, 570 nm ≤ λ ≤ 678 nm. The largest absorbance is found at x = 0.25 with average absorbance value of 92.04% and maximum and minimum absorbance peaks at wavelength of 500.89 and 657.72 nm, respectively. At x = 0.35, average absorbance value decreased to 83.55% with maximum and minimum peaks at 505.73 and 613.68 nm, respectively. Then increased to 91.16% at x = 0.45 with maximum and minimum peaks at 506.04 and 618.56 nm, respectively. At x = 0.55, average absorbance value decreased to 80.12% with maximum and minimum peaks at 507.85 and 608.79 nm, respectively. Moreover, it can be seen that the addition of barium mole fraction leads to wider maximum absorbance or minimum transmittance peaks and narrower minimum absorbance or maximum transmittance peaks in the same range of the green and blue & red light spectrums, respectively. BST thin films with photonic crystals show increasing in absorption for all x values in the range of 3.04 into 13.33%. At x = 0.25, average absorbance percentage increased 3.96% from 92.4 into 95.68%, for x = 0.35 average percentage increased 7.07% into 89.45 from 83.55%. Furthermore, average absorbance of BST thin films at x = 0.45 increased 3.04% from 91.16 into 93.93% and x = 0.55 has
