Judul: Diversity among Indonesian Pulses based on Morphological and Molecular Markers (ISSR)
Abstrak: Pulses as one among the most common food consumed has a very high genetic diversity in Indonesia. The aims of this study were to determine genetic diversity of potential pulses, the relationships among pulses, and to characterise some pulses. The study was conducted at Pasir Kuda Experimental Station, Center for Tropical Horticulture Studies, Bogor from March 2016 to October 2016. The pulses were 6 accessions of winged bean (Psophocarphus tetragonolobus), 2 accessions of lima bean (Phaseolus lunatus L.), 2 accessions of egyptian bean (Lablab purpureus), 1 accessions of cowpea (Vigna sinensis), 1 accessions of long bean (Vigna unguiculata), 1 accessions of bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranean), 1 accession of jack bean (Canavalis ensiformis), and 1 accession of velvet bean (Mucuna pruriens). There were 45 morphological characters and 8 ISSR markers that were used in this study. Based on morphological analysis, qualitative characters showed 93,94% polymorphism among the pulses. All the quantitative characters showed significant different results. The cluster analysis showed two major groups at 0,594 of dissimilarity. Based on molecular analysis, the amplified bands are 100% polymorphic bands. The cluster analysis was devided into two major groups at 0,387 of dissimilarity. Accumulation between morphological and molecular markers has two major groups in the dendrogram at 0,437 of dissimilarity

Abstrak: This study was aimed at determining flowering phenology, characterizing and analyzing the diversity of phenotypes based on morphological and molecular markers (RAPD), to provide basis for the development of new varieties of castor (Ricinus communis L.) in Indonesia. The plant material for flowering phenology was PRO accession, and 14 castor accesions of IPB collection were used for genetic diversity study. The first leaf of the sprouts was sampled for DNA extraction then used in RAPD analysis. The eight primers used in this study were OPE-3, OPE-19, OPE-20, OPH-13, OPH-14, OPM-2, OPM-5, and OPM-8. The observation on flowering phenology showed that castor was a monocieous plant indicating a cross-pollinated species. The PRO had inflorescence type 1 (gradient monoecism) according to Shifriss in William (1967) in which female flowers were located at distal part and male flowers were at proximal part. Flowers are incomplete and imperfect. Female flowers (averaged of 20 flower/raceme) opened for 3-6 days followed by male flowers averaged f 52 flower/raceme for 1-2 days. Fruit set was 100%, and fruit development last about 40 days. Based on morphological markers of plant height, petiole length, leaf length and leaf width, 100 grain weight, grain length, grain width, and grain thickness, the 14 accessions were significantly diversed. Weight of 100 grains of seed characters were supposed to be for selection because its high heritability value and wide genetic variability coeficient (KKG). There were correlation between characters of width and length of leaves (97%), plant height and stem diameter (86%), petiole and leaf length (90%), as well as petiole length and leaf width (88%), and seed shape and mature petiole color (83%). At similarity coefficient of the morphological characters (qualitative) of 0.85, the 14 accessions were classified into 6 groups i.e. group 1 (BAG-1, PHIL-5, GRE, THAI-101, CIB-1, Sur, and PHIL-4), group 2 (plam-1, PHIL-2, and LAB-1), group 3 (PHIL-13), group 4 (PON-2), group 5 (PRO), and group 6 (TAN-1). Primers amplification produced 49 bands comprising of 36 polymorphic bands (73.47%) and 13 monomorphic bands (26.53%). At 0.85 coefficient of similarity of molecular characters, the 14 accessions were classified into 5 groups, i.e. group 1 (plam-1, PRO, GRE, CIB-1, LAB-1, BAG-1, PHIL-4, PHIL-5, and PON-2), group 2 (THAI-101 and TAN-1), group 3 (PHIL-13), group 4 (PHIL-2), and group 5 (Sur). Characters of juvenile stem color, juvenile petiole color, and mature stem color can be used as morphological markers, as well as OPH-14 primer can be used as molecular markers to classify accessions. PHIL-13 had the potential character to be used as germplasm in further plant breeding activities.

Judul: Elektrodeposisi Film Tipis Semikonduktor Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) pada Substrat Kaca ITO
Abstrak: Semiconductor Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) thin film that can be used as absorber layers on solar cell module was made via electrodeposition method. CZTS thin film was electrodeposited on the surface of a silicate glass coated with a thin layer of indium tin oxide (ITO). Deposition process was done using potentiostatic mode at room temperature with a potential of 1.05 V for 30, 45, and 60 minutes, followed with annealing the film at 2 different temperatures, 500 ºC using furnace and 180 ºC using hot plate, both treatments for 45 minutes in N2/H2S atmosphere. The X-ray difractograms were analyzed using Match 2 program and showed that the CZTS thin films had kesterit crystalline structure, with a low percentage of CZTS phase. The thin film also contained secondary phases such as Cu2S, ZnS, and SnS. The obtained CZTS thin films had a thickness between 1.039 and 1.676 μm. Absorption study showed that the band gap energy of CZTS thin films which was annealed using furnace ranged from 1.50 to 1.52 eV, whereas that annealed using the hot plate was not observed. The band gap energy value showed that CZTS thin films can be used as sunlight absorber layers on solar cell. The formation of CZTS crystal film on this investigation was effectively performed using furnace annealing process at a temperature of 500 ºC with deposition time of 45 minutes.
