Published: August 2017

Research on the effect of dosage combination of Evagrow bio-fertilizer and chemical fertilizers on soil properties, growth and yield of rice has been carried out in the glasshouse, Faculty of Agriculture, Udayana University using factorial experiment with a Randomized Block Design (RBD). The first factor is Evagrow bio-fertilizer in 3 level, i.e. E0 (without bio-fertilizers), E1 (5 g bio-fertilizer/L) E2 (10 grams bio-fertilizer/L). The second factor is chemical fertilizer, which consists of 3 levels: K0 (without chemical fertilizers), K1 (150 kg Urea/ha + 75 kg SP36/ha + 37.5 kg KCl/ha), K2 (300 kg Urea/ha + 150 kg SP36/ha + 75 kg KCl/ha). The results showed that chemical fertilizers give a significant and very significant effect on most of the rice growth and yield parameters. The application of chemical fertilizers K1 and K2 increased yield of dry grain harvest to 52.87% and 102.54% compared to controls. Application of Evagrow bio-fertilizer did not significantly increase growth and yield of rice. There is no interaction between chemical fertilizers and Evagrow bio- fertilizer. Similarly to some of the soil characteristics, biological fertilizer and chemical fertilizer application did not show significant effect on most of the soil characteristics, except on salt levels.Keywords: Evagrow Biofertilizer, Inorganic Fertilizer, Oryza Sativa

Published: August 2017

Cocoa pod disease caused by the fungus Phytophthora palmivora has resulted in loss of cacao in Indonesia, especially in Bali. So far the disease control strategy is not fully understood. So there is a need to find an alternative by using endophytic fungi associated with cocoa plant. Endophytic fungi are needed to be explored in all parts of the cocoa plant such as stems, leaves and husks. The prevalence of fungal endophyte was determined by the size of its domination on the surface tissue for protection against pathogen. The exploration of the endophytic fungi benefits is aimed at finding biological agent s that could control of pathogenic P. palmivora. The results showed that 15 types of endophyte fungi have been found in the healthy leaves, stem and pod husks, with the prevalence of fungal endophyte originated from healthy leaf Mecelia sterilia (hyphae sterile) around 30%, the endophyte fungi originated from the healthy cocoa stem are Mycelia sterilia, Neurospora spp and Trichoderma spp around 25%. While the endophytic fungi originated from healthy skin fruit is Trichoderma spp. around 35%. The in vitro test results of endophytic fungi antagonistic against P. palmivora indicated that the endophyte fungi originated from the leaf namely Aspergillus spp was obtained at 80 ± 2%, A. niger 90 ± 2%, A. flavus 100%, and Trichoderma spp. 90 ± 1.5%, the endophytic fungus originated from rods namely Neurospora spp. was 95 ± 2%, and Trichoderma spp. was 90 ± 2%. While the endophytic originated from rind namely Neurospora spp . was 95 ± 1.5 % and Trichoderma spp. was 80 ± 2%. The results of in vivo test of antagonistic endophytic fungi against P. palmivora showed that all of endophytic fungi (Aspergillus sp., A. niger, A. flavus, Neurospora sp., and Trichoderma sp.) have a significant effect in suppressing the growth of mycelium P. palmivora.Keywords: Endophytic Fungus, Phytophthora Palmivora, Inhibition, Prevalence, Biological Agents

Tabanan Regency is one of the eight regencies and one municipality in Bali Province. Administratively, it is divided into 10 districs and villages. There are rural areas and urban areas in the regions. Discriminant analysis is a technique related to the separation of objects into different groups that have been set previously. The purpose of this research is to classify villlages in Tabanan Regency into urban or rural groups with discriminant analysis. Linear discriminant analysis assumes that the covariance matrix of the two groups are equals, if the assumption of equality of covariance matrix is violated, quadratic discriminant analysis can be used for classification. This research uses k-fold crosss validation method for calculating the accuracy of quadratic discriminant function where . Quadratic discriminant function is obtained by with the smallest APER value (). All of classification results are stable and consistence.

Abstract: Research on the seismic response of in-filled frame structure has been done with in-filled frame model as full and partial shell elements. The wall is considered active until the maximum load on the full shell models, while the partial shell model using the gradual load with the strength of the wall is considered inactive if the stress of the wall exceeded the wall strength The 4 storey hotel building with full wall in x-direction and wall with opening in y-direction were modeled in SAP 2000 as 3D infilled-frame using full and partial shell element. In Mxy models, both wall were included in the model, while in My models, only the wall in y-direction included. Therefore, 4 models were obtained, there are full shell model MxyShPn and MyShPn and partial shell model MyShPar and MyShPar. In addition, 2 diagonal strut models MxyS and MyS and an open frame model MOF were made as comparison. Prior to model 3D structure, validation models were created using test result condited by other as reference. For that purphose 5 2D models were created there are open frame model MOF, single strut model MST, multiple strut model MSG, full shell model MShPn and partial shell model MShPar. From validation models, it is apparent that the MxyShPar model mimic the behavior of tested structure better than the other models. From the 3D models analysis result show that the displacement in x-direction of MxyShPn, MxyShPar, MxyS were 89%, 85%, 84% smaller than those of MOF, respectively inclusion of wall in the models, also reduce the internal forces and reduse the natural period of the sctructure.

Melanin relieves oxidative stress in adipocytes culture in vitro
Authors: Jarrar Mohammed , El Shafey Ahmed , Essa Rabia , Damji Ruksar , Rauf Aisha , Hindi Ielaf 
Published: August 2017

Obesity is one of major health disorders that has become epidemic worldwide. Studies have demonstrated that oxidative stress and inflammation in adipose tissue is involved in obesity linked complications. The ectopic synthesis of melanin in adipocytes of obese patients has been newly discovered. It is hypothesized that there is potential role of melanin and its intermediates to ameliorate oxidative stress in adipose which may prevent the secondary complications to obesity. This study was done to determine whether melanin interferes with the level of oxidative stress produced in adipocyte cells in culture. Adipocyte cells were cultured in vitro and exposed to high concentration of glucose oxidase to induce oxidative stress, then cells were treated with melanin for different periods. Thereafter the levels of some oxidative stress and inflammatory biomarkers such as glutathione, TNF-alpha, Malondialdehyde (MDA), and protein carbonyl were measured. It was found that when cells were exposed to glucose oxidase the level of oxidative stress increased over time as reflected by the decrease of Glutathione. Interestingly, when melanin was added the level of oxidative stress decreased over time as reflected by increase in glutathione concentrations. It was also found that TNF-alpha decreased upon treatment by melanin but after 72 hours but not on 24 and 48 hours treatments. However, protein carbonyl and MDA appeared to be less affected by melanin treatments. These results may indicate that melanin is capable of diminishing the effects of oxidative stress on the cells at early stages probably by interfering with lipids peroxidation and production of reactive oxygen species.
