Judul: Kajian Implementasi Pengelolaan Daerah Perlindungan Laut di Desa Mattiro Deceng, Kabupaten Pangkep, Propinsi Sulawesi Selatan
Abstrak: Daerah Perlindungan Laut (DPL) merupakan kawasan laut yang ditetapkan dan diatur sebagai daerah larang ambil, tertutup bagi berbagai aktivitas pemanfaatan yang bersifat destruktif, kecuali untuk kegiatan penelitian, pendidikan dan wisata terbatas (snorkle dan menyelam). Adanya DPL ini dinilai penting demi menunjang terwujudnya perbaikan ekosistem, khususnya terumbu karang dan mempertahankan produksi perikanan

Judul: Kajian efektivitas pengelolaan daerah perlindungan laut Desa Mattiro labangeng Kabupaten Pangkajene Kepulauan Sulawesi Selatan
Abstrak: One of the Marine Sanctuary or Daerah Perlindungan Laut (DPL) in the Pangkajene Kepulauan (Pangkep) district is located at Mattiro Labangeng village. It was founded as an effort to save coral reef ecosystems and to prosper the rural community; especially the local fishermen. However, the existence of this DPL does not automatically solve problems that arose out of coral reef ecosystem management. Few initiatives are therefore needed to restore the original condition gradually. In order to investigate the roles and benefits of the presence of DPL in the conservation of coral reef ecosystem, an assessment is necessary in evaluating the success of the effectiveness of the management of DPL at Mattiro Labangeng village. By this regards, the study intends to evaluate indicators of the effectiveness and to assess how effective is the management of DPL at Mattiro Labangeng village. The research was conducted both in April and September 2010. It was done in territorial waters closed to Mattiro Labangeng village as well as among the villagers of this village, which is located in the Liukang Tupabbiring Utara subdistrict of Pangkep district. Methods applied for this research was field observation, semi-structured interviews and library search over secondary data. Field observation was conducted to obtain ecological data. Each data are collected by different methods: Point Intercept Transect (PIT) method was used to collect data on the condition of coral reefs; Underwater Visual Census (UVC) method was utilized to observe reef fish; and in situ observation method was deployed to collect data of water quality. For institutions and socio-economic information, data collection was conducted in several stages beginning from observation, semi-structured interviews and survey. Evaluative analysis on the management of DPL at Mattiro Labangen village is done in two phases, namely (1) Determining the effectiveness of selected indicators through stakeholder analysis based on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), (2) Describing the effectiveness of DPL at Mattiro Labangeng village by analyzing several indicators above based on Amoeba, which was obtained from a technique of measuring the value of each indicator compared to the CTV (Critical Threshold Value). Based on all of indicators can be considered as the management of the DPL at Village Mattiro Labangeng effective. Strategic approaches in managing the DPL at Mattiro Labangeng village effectively can be done by several integrated plans with a full attention remained paid to ecological, socio-economic and institutional issues. These strategies include protecting DPL areas, upgrading capacity and their understanding of coral reef ecosystems.

Judul: Estimation of Additive and Non-Additive Genetic Variances of Body Weight, Egg Weight and Egg Production for Quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) with an Animal Model Analysis
Abstrak: This study estimates the additive and non-additive variances for egg production and body weight traits of two lines of quails from a long-term selection with the help of the REML method. For the body weight of 42-day-old females (BW42f) and males (BW42m), a total of 7,934 records for line 1 and 7,214 records for line 2 from 21 generations were used in our analyses. Additionally, 1,717 records of females from line 1 and 1,671 records of females from line 2 contained information on their egg production at an age of 42 to 200 days (EN200), on the average egg weight for the first 11 weeks of their laying season (EW1), on the average egg weight from weeks 12 to 23 (EW2), and on their body weight at an age of 200 days (BW200f). A multivariate additive animal model and one-trait dominance models, which include the inbreeding coefficients as covariates, were fitted to the data. The estimates of the heritability gained from our dominance models were smaller than those from the additive model. For line 1, the heritability values decreased for EN200 from 0.35 to 0.32, for EW1 from 0.66 to 0.56, for BW200f from 0.42 to 0.38, and for BW200m from 0.51 to 0.49, respectively. For the first line, the respective ratio (d2) of the dominance variance to the phenotypic variance for EN200, EW1, BW200f and BW200m was 0.08, 0.22, 0.09 and 0.21, and the values for the second line were 0.12, 0.06, 0.001 and 0.23.
