Authors: Shirazi Kowsar , Ramesh Narjes Khaton , Asef Mohammad Reza
Published: December 2022

Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. asparagi is one of the main problems associated with the roots of asparagus plants and inflicting serious losses worldwide. A novel and eco-friendly strategy to reduce pathogen resistance and management of the Fusarium crown and root rot is using chitosan and Trichoderma harzianum as a sustainable treatment approach to improve both disease resistance and yields, while also effectively managing the asparagus product. In this study, the effect of chitosan and Trichoderma harzianum on growth promotion and control of Fusarium crown and root rot in asparagus plants was investigated. diseased plants from the main production areas of Iran were surveyed. The in vitro antifungal properties of chitosan solutions (concentrations of 5, 10, 15 and 20 mg/mL) and T. harzianum strain were evaluated by the dual culture method. T. harzianum and chitosan solution (20 mg/mL) gave the largest inhibition zone against F. oxysporum and were selected for further studies in the greenhouse. Chitosan (20 mg/mL) and T. harzianum were applied as seed treatments and they significantly reduced disease incidence by 92% and 73% respectively, compared to the control.
Assessment of Herbicides Uptake by Soil and Translocation in to Different Maize Segments
Authors: Zondo Sandisiwe Gladness , Mahlambi Precious
Published: December 2022

Increased agricultural operations result in increased usage of various pesticides to safeguard crops, however, this is done without paying attention to the effects of the amounting potential harm to both humans and the environment. In this present study, a structured study was conducted on the uptake of atrazine, mesotrione, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2.4-D), and glyphosate herbicides from contaminated soil and translocation into different maize segments. It was observed that 2.4-D was least absorbed by the soil, however, all the studied herbicide showed high absorption in the leafy segment of the maize plant due to the high polarity of the leaf cuticle. Glyphosate showed a high absorption rate in soil, roots, stalk, and leaves while mesotrione was highly absorbed in corn and tassels in all treatments. The absorption rate of the herbicide increased with increasing growth days. The higher treatment concentration (0.75 µg/l) showed elevated accumulation with the highest concentration (1.0 µg/l) observed for glyphosate in leaves after 140 days and high mesotrione in corn (0.51 µg/l) and tassel (0.42 µg/l) observed after 120 days. The PTi values of all treatments were >1 however, the hi data were below 100% indicating minimal possible health risk linked to the intake of these crops by both adults and children.
Gaming the System: Playbour, Production, Promotion, and the Metaverse
Authors: Foxman Maxwell
Published: December 2022

As much as tech giants like Microsoft and Meta promote the metaverse as a new haven for social connection and enterprise, popular and academic presses credit the development of persistent virtual worlds that underlie the emerging space to digital gamemakers. This paper argues gaming’s centrality to the metaverse, upon which its hardware, controls, distribution platforms, economic models, and even socio-cultural attributes rely. Building on research into early adopters of virtual reality, it examines a “playbor production system” that solidifies hardware and software providers in both immersive media and the metaverse’s ecosystems by capitalizing on gamers’ and enthusiasts’ labor. The paper concludes that such models epitomize endemic concerns in the evolution of virtual worlds, economics, and technologies contingent upon imbalanced power structures between producers, providers, and consumers.
Ecological Approach to Cinematographic Lighting of the Human Face – A Pilot Study
Authors: Huttunen Sampsa
Published: December 2022

One key aspect of cinematographic lighting – and lighting in general – is its direction and how the lighting illuminates people and other objects of attention. In a natural setting, the light reaching the target usually has at least some level of directionality instead of being just ambient overall light. In cinematography directionality is used, among other things, to enhance the lit object’s three-dimensionality in an otherwise two-dimensional medium by bringing out its shape and texture and separating it from the background. While lighting has typically been studied based on its physical qualities that render for quantitative measures, such as intensity or color spectrum, less is known about how cinematographic lighting gives rise to the spectator’s emotive-cognitive experiences. Overall, film lighting has been studied surprisingly little, although both practical and academic literature emphasize its important role in cinematic expression. This paper presents a pilot study that examines viewers’ emotional reactions to photographs of an expressionless human face under lighting from different directions. The initial results indicate that lighting that obscures, hides, or distorts facial features creates stronger emotional reactions in the viewer than lighting that reveals them, contributing to the scientific understanding of the audience’s reactions and the filmmaker’s creative decisions.
Evaluation of Motivation, Expectation, and Present Situation in 3rd Year Undergraduate Students of German Language and Literature at the University of Rijeka, Croatia
Authors: Svoboda Manuela
Published: December 2022

In this article a closer look will be taken on motivation, expectation, and present situation of third year undergraduate students of German studies in Croatia at the University of Rijeka. Due to the author’s extensive experience in teaching translation classes from Croatian to German for undergraduate students in the third year, it is noticeable that most students have problems in certain areas, i.e. they are not able to correctly translate short Croatian texts into German in terms of correct grammar and syntax, even when words were explained in advance to facilitate the process of translation and upon extensive grammar practice in the first and second year of undergraduate studies. As studying a language also requires a lot of self-study and interest in the language being studied, it is certainly not enough just to sit in the courses at the university and do only the most necessary things to somehow pass the exams. It is essential to be engaged intensively with the country, the culture, and the people, to take part in exchange programmes, travel as often as possible to the country whose language you are about to learn, take the opportunity to communicate with native speakers, watch films or TV shows, read books or magazines in the target language etc. Thanks to the new technologies, nowadays one has almost endless possibilities to be exposed to the target language, even if one does not have the opportunity to travel to the destination country. But to what extent do students use what is available to them and are they at all motivated for the necessary effort of self-study? To answer these questions, a questionnaire was prepared to gain a deeper insight into the students’ motivation to enrol German language and literature at the university, their expectations of what the language study would be like and the present situation in their third year of undergraduate studies. The evaluation of the questionnaire should provide information on the extent to which the students were familiar with what to expect from their studies, how they deal with the requirements and challenges, to what extent they are willing and prepared to do something outside of the courses to improve their language proficiency autonomously, what the study of German studies should serve them in the future and if self-study has a visible impact on their language proficiency, i.e. if students who do a certain amount of self-study do have better results.
Myth or Reality: Digital Literacy Programme Implementation in Primary Special Schools in Nairobi, Kenya
Authors: Omboto Charles Magwari , Kanga Anne , Njageh Ann Rita K.
Published: December 2022

Information Communication Technology (ICT) enhances accessibility, efficiency, and quality of education. This study aimed to examine the status of ICT resources in teaching and learning in public primary special schools in Nairobi County, Kenya. Questionnaires, interviews, observation schedules, and manuals for document analysis were used to collect data from respondents. Research shows that most special schools have regular ICT resources provided by digital literacy programs (DLP), such as laptops and tablets. However, there is limited investment in specialized ICT resources to support the teaching and learning of children with disabilities and special educational needs. Research also shows that ICT resources are limited because most of the devices are kept by school administrators or teachers who do not know how to use them. The study concludes that limited investment in assistive and/or adaptive digital technologies and devices will harm the attainment of ICT skills as a fundamental skill by children with disabilities in special schools and special needs units. The study recommends the establishment of a technical committee on design innovation and equipment technology. This will complement DLP's efforts in providing resources for special schools to make better use of ICT for students with disabilities and special educational needs.
Some Reflections on Reference in the Teaching of French as a Foreign Language Context
Authors: Tsaknaki Olympia
Published: December 2022

Grammatical and lexical cohesion are necessary conditions to guarantee a text’s coherence (Halliday and Hasan 1976). Grammatical cohesion is classified into four types of relation: reference, conjunction, substitution, and ellipsis. This study aims to investigate the use of the cohesive device of reference in written discourse produced by users/learners of French as a foreign language, to explore the kind of references they prefer and to highlight the difficulties they come across. Our study is based on a learner corpus composed of written productions of Greek-speaking users/learners of French who participated in National Foreign Language Exam System (Κρατικό Πιστοποιητικό Γλωσσομάθειας, ΚΠΓ). We used a sample of texts produced by candidates who participated in the examination willing to be certified at the levels B (Independent user) and C (Proficient user) of language proficiency according to the 6-level scale of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (Council of Europe 2001).

The monetary losses associated with hydatidosis in slaughtered ruminants in Turkey
Authors: Aciöz M. , Bozkaya F.
Published: December 2022

Hydatidosis is a parasitic zoonotic disease that negatively affects human and animal health and causes economic losses due to slaughter condemnation and risk to public health in developing countries. This study aims to determine the prevalence of Hydatidosis among slaughtered livestock in different regions of Turkey and calculate the financial losses associated with the zoonosis. For this purpose, livestock slaughter records from the livestock information system in 2020 were considered and direct and indirect economic losses were estimated. The study determined the prevalence of hydatidosis in small ruminants (0.03%) and cattle (0.0124%) and an average of 0.007% of the total number of livestock slaughtered during the period under study were infected with hydatid cysts. The direct and indirect economic losses were estimated at $98.558 and $466.891, respectively. The total monetary loss due to Hydatidosis in Turkey in the year 2020 was estimated at $565.448. In conclusion, significant monetary losses due to Hydatidosis in slaughtered livestock is still an important economic issue to livestock traders in Turkey.
Genetic variation of Taenia saginata cyst isolates from Iraq based on mitochondrial COX1 sequences
Authors: Mohammed A. A.
Published: December 2022

The zoonotic parasite disease of economic and public health relevance is bovine cysticercosis, resulting from the larval stage of Taenia saginata. The presented research aims to identify intraspecific variation in T. saginata isolated from cattle in Iraq’s Sulaymaniyah province using the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (COX1) gene. Sequence analysis of the COX1 gene revealed that five distinct haplotypes were identified in 37 T. saginata specimens from Iraq. Four of the five T. saginata haplotypes may have been identified for the first time in the world. Phylogenetic research revealed that all T. saginata haplotypes had been clustered in a single clade, with Korean and Iranian isolates sharing a high degree of closeness. In addition, individual haplotypes related to COX1 had a pairwise evolutionary divergence of 0.005- 0.013, whereas the overall evolutionary divergence regarding all five haplotypes ranged between 0.000-0.018. It was concluded that added newly recorded data on T. saginata genetic variation could have substantial implications for taeniasis epidemiology and control.
Finno-Ugric Indigenous Knowledge, Hybridity and Co-Creation in Research : The Komi Case
Authors: Leete Art
Published: December 2022

The aim of this article is to explore the effect of hybridity in the Komi hunters’ knowledge system as well as the potential for mutual understanding in dialogue between ethnographers and their Indigenous partners. I discuss how the hunters exploit printed sources, both scholarly works and popular magazines, in their practice. In the empirical part of this study, I present three case studies that demonstrate different ways in which a potential hybridity of knowledge has appeared in a field encounter. The analysis shows that some pieces of the hunters’ knowledge have a background in written sources, while they present scholarly evidence as facts from their own lives. At the same time, some similarities between the hunters’ narratives and publications are possibly random. I argue that exploitation of scholarly works and popular publications by hunters brings together Indigenous and scholarly knowledge and supports the potential of collaborative research.
Displaying Exotic Otherness: Does the Space Matter?
Authors: Boldāne-Zeļenkova Ilze
Published: December 2022

At the turn of the 20th century, exotic shows as a form of displaying otherness gained wide popularity among various kinds of mass entertainment in Europe and the United States. Promoted professionally, the shows attracted public interest, combining the acquisition of knowledge with leisure. The freaks and people of non-European descent exhibited in different public spaces – zoos, parks, circus – not only demonstrated ‘nature’s errors’ and the diversity of human beings, but also the development of the human body and society within the framework of racial and evolutionary theories. The socio-economic and cultural context of each host country added that country’s own meaning to the messages of the shows. Exotic shows staged in the Baltic provinces of the Russian Empire inhabited by Latvians created a situation in which entertainment invented by modern colonialism took place in a territory directly affected by colonialism. Providing an insight into these shows, emphasizing exotic otherness mainly in Riga, the article seeks answers to the questions of who the audience was for these shows, and what kind of power relations, if any, between “living specimens” and spectators, and among spectators, one can deduce from the performance venue.
Alterity and identity: Romanian-Swedish mutual perceptions during The Second World War
Authors: Dahlquist Andreea
Published: December 2022

The geographic distance between Romania and Sweden influenced the creation of mutual imaginary. However, it wasn’t until the beginning of the 20th century that inhabitants of the two nations were interested in discovering each other. Therefore, Romanian-Swedish mutual impressions were mostly based on the accounts of tourists who had visited both nations. During the interwar era, direct contact between Romanians and Swedes was infrequent. The news about Romania was disseminated by the Swedish press, which played a significant part in the formation of hostile sentiments. On the other side, the Romanian diplomats who ran the Stockholm-based Legation had nothing but admiration for Swedish society. During the Second World War, the situation improved as more Romanian and Swedish intellectuals traveled to Scandinavia and the Balkans. However, these interactions did not alter how Romanians and Swedes viewed one another.
The image of the Norwegian monarch in Laxdæla saga. Historical and philological remarks
Authors: Coroban Costel
Published: December 2022

The purpose of this article is that of exploring one of the most valuable sources from Iceland’s golden age of sagas, the Saga of the People of Laxárdalr through the lenses of historical as well as literary criticism in order to provide an account of the ways in which Norwegian kings or queens were portrayed. The research methodology includes primary and secondary source analysis and qualitative analysis, as well as the comparative method, as the results are compared with similar findings from secondary literature. The edition of Laxdæla Saga that was used in the analysis is Muriel A. C. Press’s translation from 1999 and the main secondary sources used include works such as those of Ármann Jakobsson and William Ian Miller. The main findings are that, like in many other similar sources, the Norwegian monarchy is represented either in an either extremely positively or extremely negatively fashion by the author of the saga.
A view from Poland: the state and the Orthodox church in the Ukrainian lands in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries as reflected in the Polish historical research
Authors: Lastovskyi Valerii
Published: December 2022

This article explores the shifting perspectives of Polish academics about the role of the Orthodox Church in domestic and interstate relations within the Commonwealth and the Russian Empire. Why Poland’s sovereignty crumbled at the end of the 18th century was one of the most critical questions Polish historians sought to explain. Since Bohdan Khmelnytskii’s uprising, Moscow’s geopolitical objectives had placed the Ukrainian territories in the forefront of their attention.

It has been documented that the nineteenth-century Polish scientific research was more concerned with the social and political impact of Orthodox Churches in Commonwealth regions than any other aspect of its history. However, this scenario has altered through time. Since the eighteenth century, the viewpoints of Polish historians have changed drastically. Additionally, they investigated the inner workings of churches and religious activity in Ukraine.
The Effect of Fresnel Lens Focal Point Location on Heat Transfer in Phase Change Material (PCM) Enhanced Dynamic Solar Facade
Authors: Narbuts Jānis , Blumberga Andra , Zundāns Zigmārs , Freimanis Ritvars , Bāliņš Roberts , Vanaga Ruta
Published: December 2022

In recent years, the demand for energy-efficient technological solutions in the building sector has risen significantly worldwide. The exploitation of phase change material as a medium for thermal energy storage in building envelopes has increased due to its superior properties. There is still a knowledge gap to cover in the way to the effective solar thermal energy storage in the building envelope – to enhance the heat transfer, to reduce the heat loss, etc. This paper deals with the optimisation of heat transfer using a solar concentrator (Fresnel lens). This study examines the effect of Fresnel lens focal point location on heat transfer in a dynamic solar facade prototype that stores thermal energy in phase change material. Nine different setups (solar façade compositions) were tested in the laboratory – two parameters with three alternatives each. Testing conditions simulate the relevant Northern Europe climate. By changing the air gap configuration and location of the Fresnel lens focal point, the heat transfer to phase change material was observed by measuring temperatures in the phase change material container using five thermocouples. The results show the improved thermal performance in test modules with larger cone diameter by 7.2 % and Fresnel lens focal point positioning closer to the back of the phase change material container by 5.4 %.

Published: December 2022

In 2021, the Space Systems Laboratory of the University of Pisa (UniPi) started a student-oriented high-altitude ballooning programme intended to provide an opportunity for hands-on experience in support of the teaching of scientific and technical courses. The programme provides mentoring on scientific, technical and management issues, along with financial support and assistance with integration and launch on a sounding balloon platform. The goal is to conduct flying experiments in the stratosphere, retrieve them after landing and process the results; by doing so, the students experience all phases of a scientific mission project, from conceptual design to realisation, operations and post-flight analysis. Following a call for proposal open to all students of the UniPi across all study areas, three experiments were selected featuring multidisciplinary teams. This paper summarises the features of the programme’s first edition and presents the main lessons learned.
An Analysis of the Spanish Aerospace Sector: The Case of the Start-Up Ecosystem in Madrid
Authors: Morillas-Guerrero Juan José
Published: December 2022

After launching the First Survey on the Spanish aerospace industry, important results were obtained, which helped to delve into the roots of the digital transformation (DT) of this sector, focussing on the Madrid region (Spain). From this type of study, which had not been carried out until now at the regional level, extremely interesting data have emerged that allow us to define the situation of Madrid companies in the aerospace sector. We have characterised and quantified the influence of what we have called ‘transformative enablers’. We have also analysed their relationships with the general characteristics of the companies, such as location, number of employees, legal form or type of company. We also obtained interesting conclusions about the role of respondents within organisations to discover the ‘capillarity’ of their situations and thus understand the degree of DT in terms of whether they achieve the so-called Industry 4.0 (Fourth Industrial Revolution) specifications. Finally, we have carried out a monographic study of the disruptive innovations within the start-up ecosystem to understand its definition and scope in the aerospace industry as a precursor of the latter’s DT.
The Applications of Blockchain and Artificial
Intelligence in Logistics
Authors: Călinescu Gabriela
Published: December 2022

There are many advantages to using the technologies of blockchain and artificial intelligence in businesses.
Since computers and other machines were created, their capacity to carry out a variety of activities has
increased tremendously in recent years. In several fields of employment, people have created robust computer
systems that speed up processes and cut down on the amount of time needed to complete a task. The aim of
this paper is to demonstrate how relying on blockchain and artificial intelligence for logistic processes can
greatly improve their efficiency. In order to achieve this purpose, analyses were conducted on academic writings
and research done by various authors and specialists. Moreover, the method of the case study was used. The
results show that, in the logistics sector, blockchain technology and artificial intelligence have several potential
advantages and uses, including traceability, transparency, smart contracts, authenticity verification, freight
tracking, and cybersecurity. However, there is still confusion and skepticism regarding the use of these new
technologies.
YELLOW WATER LILIES (NUPHAR, NYMPHAEACEAE) IN GREAT BRITAIN: A NEW HYBRID, A REAPPRAISAL OF RECORDS, AND A REVISED STATUS OF N. ADVENA
Authors: Lansdown Richard , Ruhsam Markus
Published: December 2022

Surveys to clarify the identification of the alien spatterdock (Nuphar advena) in Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales) showed  that most reported populations included plants that did not have a morphology that agreed with literature accounts of that species.  Some populations had been misidentified, whereas others were morphologically atypical variants of the UK native Nuphar lutea. Many populations included individuals that had a combination of traits characteristic of both Nuphar advena and N. lutea. Visual examination and measurement of two stamen characters (filament and anther length) show that these plants are sterile, and molecular analysis confirms that these populations include a previously undescribed sterile hybrid between Nuphar advena and N.  lutea. Here, we formally describe the hybrid as Nuphar × porphyranthera and provide taxonomic and distribution information on the  parental species for comparison, as well as a key to all known Nuphar taxa in Great Britain. Neither Nuphar advena nor Nuphar ×  porphyranthera show any sign of spreading from sites at which they were almost certainly planted and therefore should not be  considered naturalised in Britain.

Published: December 2022

In this case report, a 1-week-old female red fawn (Cervus elaphus), one of the largest deer species in the world, constituted the study material. In the clinical examination, posture disorder, severe lameness and malnutrition in young deer were determined in the anterior left and right feet. Radiographic examination of the case revealed a distal diaphyseal transversal fracture in the left metacarpal bone, and a fracture in the lateral 1st and medial 2nd phalanx distal in the right anterior extremity. General anesthesia was not preferred due to the lack of complicated fracture types and malnutrition in the young deer, and the treatment of the extremities, which were placed in a plaster bandage with mild sedation, was kept under follow-up. After the first week of 21-day plaster application, open wound formation on the foot was noticed and wound treatment was performed by opening a window on the plaster. It was aimed to inform our colleagues and other readers about the red deer phenomenon, which has been taken under protection because its population has decreased in Turkey, and to raise awareness.

STUDY OF SOIL PHYSICAL PROPERTIES IN EX-GOLD MINING LAND, OIL PALM (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) PLANTATION, AND FORESTS ON ULTISOL
Authors: Resti Arjuni Santi  , Dewi Rezki  , Adrinal
Published: December 2022

The soil physical properties are one of the components of soil fertility that function as a place for roots to penetrate. Different types of land uses affect the soil physical properties, especially on the availability of water and soil aeration which indirectly affects the availability of nutrients in the soil. Research on the soil physical properties of ex-gold mining, oil palm plantations and forests was carried out on Ultisol located in Tebing Tinggi Village, Dharmasraya Regency from April until October 2021. The objective of this study was to obtain the comparison of soil physics properties in ex-gold mining land with oil palm and forest land on Ultisol. The method on this study was a survey with purposive sampling on three different land uses (ex- gold mining land, oil palm land and forest) at a depth of 0-20 cm and 20-40 cm and it was replicated 3 times. The observed parameters were soil texture, organic matter, volume weight, soil pore space, soil water content, permeability, and soil aggregate stability. Based on soil analysis in the laboratory, it was obtained that the physical conditions of the soil in three different land uses, i.e the physical condition of the oil palm land and forest were better than the ex-gold mining land. The soil texture on ex-gold mining land was classified on sandy clay loam and sandy loam with a very low organic matter content (0,20-1,72 %) if compared with oil palm and forest land. The volume weight in each land use was relatively high with the total soil pore space was low except in oil palm land depths of 0-20 cm, which is 69,93 % vol (moderate). Permeability was slow to moderate with the soil aggregate stability classified as unstable to steady. Soil water content was relatively low except in forest land depths of 20-40 cm which very high criteria (33,93 %).
The TV series "Symphonic Novel" in the Aspect of its Narrative Specificity
Authors: Liu Xin
Published: December 2022

The article is devoted to the problem of the formation of narrative qualities in the South Korean television series "Symphonic Novel" (Russian version) as in the journalistic product of media communication. Based on a comprehensive analysis, the author comes to the conclusion that in the TV series "Symphonic Novel", the narrative modality is formed in the TV series together with lyricism as a system of principles and views that are displayed in the plot. Narrative becomes an important distinguishing characteristic of the TV series "Symphonic Novel", which allows it to become a unique and effective tool for influencing foreign (Russian-speaking) audiences in order to form a stable positive perception of South Korean culture and the South Korean state as a whole. The relevance of studying a television series as a way of forming a country image does not decrease due to its specific role in the formation of certain ideological attitudes that enhance its socio-cultural significance. The issue of the narrative of the TV series is also relevant due to its particular popularity among a wide audience. So, in the interaction of the audience with the content of the TV series "Symphonic Novel", media communication, due to its features — publicity and mediation — receives specific parameters for the image of the author. Narrative discourse, complicated by the narrative instance, begins to obey the laws of the media text, the classical concepts of "plot", "image of the author", etc. they can be interpreted differently — through a communicative model. The narrative in the media space is determined by the psychological and social characteristics of the addressee — interests and needs, social status, emotional state (now) and personal qualities (always). The final product is also influenced by his ideas about the communicative situation, about himself as a subject of speech, about the direct recipient and random participants of communication, expectations of a perlocative effect (although the latter often lies outside the linguistic reality).

A possible viral interference between SARS-CoV-2 and varicella zoster virus
Authors: Srivastava Gautam , Srivastava Govind
Published: December 2022

It is not uncommon to observe herpes zoster in severe illnesses. However, its rarity in millions of SARS-CoV-2-infected patients around the world is intriguing. Further, its frequent occurrence following the serological clearance of SARS-CoV-2 infection indicates an unknown mechanism at work. The purpose of this study was to investigate this phenomenon and identify a possible underlying mechanism. The authors believe, there is a powerful viral interference created by SARS-CoV-2 virus during its active phase. This was evident by the paucity of reports of herpes zoster infection as long as COVID-19 disease was active. Therefore, COVID-19 infection does not permit the development of herpes zoster until the infection is serologically negative – due to its powerful suppression of varicella-zoster virus. They speculate that the same active principle of viral interference can be applied by developing a superinfection therapy by introducing a non-pathogenic virus to infect patients harboring a pathogenic virus, to combat serious infections such as COVID-19.

Bawang merah (Allium ascalonicum L.) merupakan salah satu komoditas tanaman hortikultura yang banyak dikonsumsi manusia sebagai campuran bumbu masak setelah cabe. Selain sebagai campuran bumbu masak, bawang merah juga dijual dalam bentuk olahan seperti ekstrak bawang merah, bubuk, minyak atsiri, bawang goreng bahkan sebagai bahan obat untuk menurunkan kadar kolesterol, gula darah, mencegah penggumpalan darah, menurunkan tekanan darah serta memperlancar aliran darah. Sebagai komoditas hortikultura yang banyak dikonsumsi masyarakat maka diperlukan upaya untuk meningkatkan produksi bawang merah, salah satunya adalah pemanfaatan lahan gambut sebagai areal tanam bawang merah. Tanah gambut memiliki beberapa masalah berupa rendahnya ketersediaan unsur hara, terutama kalium. Salah satu upaya yang dapat dilakukan untuk meningkatkan produktivitas lahan gambut adalah dengan pemberian pupuk kotoran sapi dan kalium. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu untuk mengetahui dosis interaksi pemberian pupuk kotoran sapi dan kalium terhadap pertumbuhan dan hasil tanaman bawang merah pada tanah gambut. Metode penelitian menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap faktorial dengan faktor pertama adalah pupuk kotoran sapi dan faktor kedua adalah kalium. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa tidak terdapat interaksi terhadap pemberian pupuk kotoran sapi dan kalium pada semua variabel pertumbuhan dan hasil tanaman bawang merah pada tanah gambut.Kata Kunci   : Bawang Merah, Gambut, Kalium, Pupuk Kotoran Sapi

Peluang pengembangan upaya untuk meningkatkan produktivitas tanaman lobak dapat dilakukan dengan memanfaatkan lahan sub optimal salah satunya adalah lahan gambut. Tanah gambut dihadapkan pada berbagai kendala diantaranya kemasaman tanah yang tinggi, ketersedian hara dan kejenuhan basa yang rendah. Salah satu upaya untuk mengatasi kendala tersebut adalah dengan penggunaan abu kayu. Pemberian abu kayu dapat memperbaiki sifat kimia yakni meningkatkan pH tanah gambut serta memperbaiki sifat biologi yang dapat merangsang aktivitas mikroorganisme guna mempercepat proses dekomposisi bahan organik pada tanah gambut. Perbaikan pH tanah akan meningkatkan ketersediaan hara bagi tanaman dan upaya peningkatan kualitas umbi lobak dapat dilakukan dengan pemberian pupuk kalium. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mencari pengaruh interaksi dan dosis terbaik dari pemberian abu kayu dan pupuk kalium untuk pertumbuhan dan hasil tanaman lobak putih pada media gambut. Penelitian dilaksanakan di Rumah Penelitian Fakultas Pertanian Universitas Tanjungpura Pontianak di Jalan Prof. H. Hadari Nawawi. Penelitian berlangsung dari tanggal 11 Januari sampai dengan 12 Maret 2021. Penelitian menggunakan Faktorial Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) yang terdiri dari 2 faktor yaitu abu kayu (A) dan pupuk kalium (P). Setiap perlakuan terdiri dari 9 kombinasi perlakuan dan diulang sebanyak 3 kali dan setiap ulangan terdiri 4 tanaman sampel. Perlakuan terdiri dari a1 (408 g/polybag atau setara dengan 24,5 ton/ha), a2 (558 g/polybag atau setara dengan 33 ton/ha), a3 (705 g/polybag atau setara dengan 42,3 ton/ha), p1 (0,8 g/polybag atau setara dengan 50 kg/ha), p2 (1,6 g/polybag atau setara dengan 100 kg/ha) dan p3 (2,5 g/polybag atau setara dengan 150 kg/ha). Kombinasi perlakuan yang dimaksud yaitu, a1p1, a1p2, a1p3, a2p1, a2p2,a2p3, a3p1, a3p2,dan a3p3. Variabel yang diamati dalam penelitian adalah jumlah daun (helai), berat segar tanaman (g), panjang umbi (cm), diameter umbi (cm), berat segar umbi (g), dan berat kering tanaman (g). Berdasarkan hasil penelitian bahwa tidak terjadi interaksi antara pemberian abu kayu dan pupuk kalium terhadap pertumbuhan dan hasil lobak putih pada media gambut. Pemberian abu kayu dosis 558 g/polybag atau setara dengan 24,5 ton/ha sudah cukup efisien untuk pertumbuhan dan hasil lobak putih pada media gambut. Pemberian pupuk kalium pada berbagai dosis perlakuan memberikan pengaruh yang sama terhadap pertumbuhan dan hasil lobak putih pada media gambut. Kata Kunci : Abu Kayu, Lobak Putih, Media Gambut, Pupuk Kalium

Bakteri pelarut fosfat Paenibacillus alvei selain mampu melarutkan fospat, juga membentuk indole acetic acid (IAA) dan siderofor, serta berperan sebagai biokontrol. Penyakit hawar pelepah padi disebabkan oleh jamur Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn. Penyakit ini mudah ditemukan pada setiap musim tanam, sehingga sulit dikendaliakn. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi ketahanan padi Ciherang Merah yang diberi perlakuan isolat BPF terhadap serangan R. solani pada kondisi tanah sulfat masam. Penelitian dirancang, menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap dengan 4 taraf perlakuan berupa isolat BPF isolat 4A (P1), 6A (P2), konsorsium 4A dan 6A (P3), dan kontrol (P4). Setiap perlakuan terdiri dari 5 ulangan. Pengamatan dilakukan setiap minggu hingga padi berumur 7 MST. Variabel yang diamati meliputi tinggi tanaman, jumlah daun, jumlah anakan, berat basah tanaman, berat basah akar, berat kering tanaman, berat kering akar, insidensi serangan, keparahan penyakit, kemampuan bakteri uji menekan keparahan penyakit, dan tingkat ketahanan tanaman terhadap penyakit. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa pemanfaatan BPF dalam mengendalikan penyakit hawar pelepah pada padi Ciherang Merah memiliki tingkat ketahanan yang berbeda jika dibandingkan dengan kontrol yang tergolong rentan. BPF isolat 6A, dan konsorsium 4A dan 6A tergolong tahan, serta BPF isolat 4A agak rentan terhadap penyakit hawar pelepah. Kerusakan tanaman berbanding terbalik dengan perkembangan insidensi serangan yang cenderung terus meningkat, karena perlakuan pemberian BPF menekan keparahan penyakit dan memicu pertumbuhan padi Ciherang Merah di tanah sulfat masam.Kata Kunci: Paenibacillus alvei,  Hawar  Pelepah  Padi,  Padi Ciherang Merah, Biokontrol
