Judul: Identifikasi keragaman Gen Growth Hormone Receptor (GHR AluI) pada Sapi Friesian Holstein di BIB Lembang, BBIB Singosari, dan BET Cipelang.
Abstrak: Growth hormone receptor (GHR) is one factor affecting animal growth. GHR is required by growth hormone (GH) to carry out its effect on target tissues. The objective of this study was to identify polymorphism of the Growth Hormone Receptor gene in Holstein Friesian (HF) dairy cattle and beef cattle. Genotyping was performed on 126 animals. These consisted of HF 89 heads from BIB Lembang (17), BBIB Singosari (32), and BET Cipelang (40); as well as for 37 heads of four breeds of beef cattle including for Simmental (13), Limousin (14), Brahman (5), and Angus (5) for a comparison. Varian genetic of the GHR gene was identified by PCR-RFLP method using AluI restriction enzyme cutting the base position at AG|CT. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) had been found in exon 10, coding for the cytoplasmic domain of GHR, which was located at position 81 bp (A/G) induced amino acid substitutions Ser/Gly. The product of amplification of GHR was 298 bp. Genotyping the GHR gene produced two alleles (A and G) resulting three genotypes (AA, AG and GG). The genotype AA was dominant in HF cattle from all locations, and also in Brahman and Limousin cattle from BET Cipelang. All of HF dairy cattle were in Hardy-Weinberg disequilibrium (χhit 2>χ0,05 2), in contrast, Simmental and Limousin were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The Hardy-Weinberg in Brahman and Angus values could not be calculated. Heterozigosity values in HF and beef cattle were low (ho<he). In beef cattle, Angus had highest heterozigosity value (0,600), while Brahman had the lowest heterozigosity value (0.000). The conclusion was that the variability of GHR|AluI gene can be used as a basic information for selection in growth caracteristic in the HF and beef cattle.

Judul: Identifikasi Keragaman Gen Growth Hormone Receptor Exon 8 (GHR|SspI) pada Sapi Friesian Holstein dengan Metode PCR-RFLP
Abstrak: Growth Hormone Receptor (GHR) is one factor affecting animal growth. GHR is required by growth hormone (GH) to carry out its effect on target tissues. The objective of this study was to identify polymorphism of the Growth Hormone Receptor gene in dairy cattle (Holstein Friesian) from BPPT SP Cikole, KPSBU Pasir Kemis, KPSBU Cilumber, BIB Singosari and BBIB Lembang. The gene polymorphism was identified with Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method using SSpI restriction enzyme. Genotyping in this study was performed on 312 animals. The product of amplification was 230 bp. Genotyping the GHR gene produced two alleles (A and T) and three genotypes (AA, AT, TT). Results from the analysis of the allele and genotype frequencies showed that the T allele had a higher frequencies than the A allele and TT genotype had a higher frequencies than AA or AT genotypes from all population. The GHR gene in HF from BPPT SP Cikole, KPSBU Cilumber, and KPSBU Pasir Kemis were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The equilibrium Hardy-Weinberg in HF from BIB Lembang and BBIB Singosari could not be calculated. Heterozigosity value of GHR gene (Ho) were lower than heterozigosity value in HF (He) from BPPT SP Cikole and KPSBU Pasir Kemis. In HF from other population, heterozigosity value of GHR gene (Ho) were higher than heterozigosity value (He). The conclusion was that GHR|SSpI gene in HF from BPPT SP Cikole, KPSBU Pasir Kemis, KPSBU Cilumber, BIB Lembang and BBIB Singosari was polymorphic.

Judul: Hamiltonian formulation for linear waves motion in two layers fluid
Abstrak: The surface wave could be considered as a wave that separates two fluids, namely water and air. Based on this assumption, it is introduced the interfacial wave, a wave between two layers of fluid with different density. The formulation of interfacial waves motion begins with deriving the base equation of irrotational ideal fluid. Furthermore, according to irrotational fluid assumption, the base equation can be stated in velocity potential. In this derivation, the fluids domain is assumed to be restricted by rigid lid boundary conditions, both at the upper and lower limit. Therefore, the interfacial waves motion can be explained in a hamiltonian formulation. In the hamiltonian formulation, total energy is defined as the sum of kinetic and potential energy. The hamiltonian system is obtained from reduction of kinetic energy by using the Dirichlet Neumann Operator. The resulted kinetic energy equation is nonlinear. Therefore, this form is linearized by first part of the Taylor expansion. This linearization gives a dispersion relation of linear wave. Based on this dispersion relation, the phase speed of the linear wave depends on the density ratio of the two layers fluid.
