Earthworms are key to the earth's ecosystem, which helps the soil increase its fertility and repair its existing elements, as well as remove contaminants. This study investigated the accumulation of Zn in the earthworm Aporrectodea caliginosa after 15 days of exposure. The worms were grown in media with different concentrations of Zn between 750 and 1500 ppm. Each treatment consisted of three replicates, containing 30 worms. A control group without Zn was also used. Data were analyzed by using Duncan Multi–Range. The results revealed that A. caliginosa had a strong ability to accumulate Zn in its tissue compared to the control group. It was noticed that the increase of the heavy metal in the worm´s tissue is associated with the elevation of the metal in its media. The results show a significant loss of weight in the worm´s body and loss in the growth rate; they also shown a decrease in specific growth rate. Moreover, there was a significant decrease in the worm length, showing a high effect, especially after 15 days of breeding with all concentrations used in this study. The researchers recommend using earthworms to purify the soil from contaminants because earthworm has a great ability to get rid of all pollutants, whether metals or pesticides or parasites, especially in industrialized countries and agricultural lands.

Superbugs revert to bacterial strains, which exhibit resistance to antibiotics. These bacteria could cause some problems in disease treatment and the environment. This research aimed of this study was to identify the presence of superbugs in the river stream that flows through Malang State University campus area. Amoxicillin, tetracycline, and chloramphenicol were selected to test the possible bacterial resistance. Water samples taken from a decided spot were spread over Luria Bertani’s agar on both antibiotic supplemented and antibiotics-free media with no delay. Molecular identification was carried out using 16S rRNA gene DNA barcoding approach, completed with morphological and Gram staining analyses. A total of 16 isolates of gram-negative colonies were found in the form of bacilli, diplobacilli, cocci, and diplococci. The genetic identification of eight resistant colonies led us to suggest that the isolates may belong to Aeromonas, Shigella, and Bacillus. Further studies are still required to get a clearer view of the correct taxonomical position of those resistant isolates.

Acaudina rosettis is one of the commercial sea cucumber species that is widely consumed on the east coast of Surabaya, East Java, Indonesia. Although its abundance in nature has begun to show signs of decreasing, studies on this species are still very limited. This study aimed to examine indicators that can be used to determine the sex of A. rosettis individuals. Acaudina rosettis samples were collected from Madura strait in the mid of Hijri month for three months. The sea cucumber samples were then dissected. Body wall without viscera and gonads was weighed. The gonads were then characterized macroscopically and microscopically, prepared into histological slides with hematoxylin-eosin staining. The results showed that A. rosettis samples could be classified into three sex groups based on the type of gamete cells observed in the tubules; male (spermatogenic), female (oogenic), and undetermined sex (no gamete cells found). Gonads had three colors; yellow, pink, and orange and were in five stages of reproductive phase; gametogenesis (G), mature (M), spawning (S), and post-spawning (PS). Male samples had yellow and orange gonads, female samples were pink and orange, and all undetermined sex were orange. The G gonads were yellow and orange, M were yellow and pink, while S and PS were orange. Body wall and gonad weight at the same reproductive phase did not show any difference between males and females. Based on the results, gonad color can be used as an indicator of sex determination, but only in G and M reproductive phases.

Homalomena pexa, a tomentose haired-leaf aroid, was a newly discovered and described plant species in early 2020. This species has currently only been reported from South Tapanuli. A molecular study to provide DNA sequence is essential in this preliminary investigation. This research aimed to characterize the barcode sequence of H. pexa and estimate the species' position in an Araceae phylogenetic tree. This research used ITS sequence to perform DNA barcoding on H. pexa. The sequencing result revealed that 1040 bp nucleotides were effectively amplified. The phylogenetic tree generated using the Neighbor-Joining method and the Kimura 2-parameter revealed that H. pexa clustered with H. atrox and H. humilis, with a bootstrap value of 97%. This investigation provided and demonstrated that ITS sequences could be used to validate and support the proper identification of Araceae species.

The mangrove ecosystem is one of the most productive ecosystems on earth. This ecosystem provides a lot of functions for the living organism inhabiting here, such as fishes, mollusks, echinoderms, crustaceans, ect. The mangrove crab is one of the common crustaceans that can be found in the mangrove. This Purtunidae crab is very popular due to their role in the food chain as well as for the economic income that has a high value in the market. However, overexploitation may decrease the crab population. This study aimed to investigate the abundance and occurrence of the mangrove crabs from Munjang mangrove, Bangka Belitung Island from August 2020 to June 2021 using baited traps with the line transect method at four zones. A total of four species of mangrove crabs, Scylla olivacea, S. paramamosain, S. serrata and S. tranquebarica, were found in this location and dominated by S. serrata. Shannon diversity index (H’) was a in low category (<1), evenness index range (J) from 0.35 to 0.89, and there was dominant species in this study. The bed sediment iswas dominated by the muddy clay substratum except in zone 4 with sandy. Overall, this location is a suitable habitat for the Scylla spp. And better management is urgently needed before these crabs are exploited by humans.

Oleaginous fungi are one of the microorganisms that can accumulate a high number of biomasses quickly (within 96-130 hours) and are often used to produce lipids. The growth of fungi depends on the chemical composition of the environment in which it grows. The growth media of fungi must contain high carbohydrates as a source of nutrients and high nitrogen content. One of the carbon sources that fungi can use in the growth process is glucose. BR 2.2 isolate is an oleaginous fungus capable of accumulating 28.44% lipids from the total dry biomass with glucose as a carbon source in 50 mL of growth media. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the effect of variations in the volume of media and incubation time on the production of biomass and lipid isolate BR 2.2. Biomass and lipid production were analyzed at media with additional water volumes of 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 mL with 48, 96, and 144 hours of incubation times. The results showed that lipid accumulation and biomass production increased with the reduction of water content in the growth media and reached the highest number in the media volume of 20 mL with an incubation time of 144 hours, i.e., 0.87±0.04 g/L and 12.53±0.29 g/L. It can be concluded that biomass and fungal lipid increased along with incubation time and nutrient concentration.

In the previous study, Penicillium sp. ID10-T065 has been mutated using ultraviolet (UV), ethyl methyl sulfonate (EMS) and the combination of UV-EMS to increase Beta-glucosidase (bgl) activity. There were three mutants selected, UV13 (UV mutant), EM31 (EMS mutant), and UM23 (UV-EMS mutant). This study examined the mutations in the bgl gene encoding (bgl1) as well as sequence differences between mutants and wild-type of Penicillium sp. ID10-T065. The gene analysis was performed by PCR amplification and sequencing of the bgl1 gene. The results of bgl1 gene sequences (600 bp) from mutants were aligned with the wild-type, it was discovered that there were base alterations from position 2025 to 2050. Mutant UV13 showed the highest base alterations (7 bases) which occurred at position 2027 (T→C); 2036 (T→G); 2040 (T→G); 2047 (G→C); and 2048-2050 (TTG→GGA). Mutant EM31 showed alterations in five bases at positions 2034 (G→A), 2036 (T→G), 2037 (G→C), 2044 (G→C), and 2047 (G→T). Mutant UM23 showed two base alterations at position 2025 (T→A) and 2037 (G→C). UV irradiation and EMS mutation resulted in transition and transversion DNA, whereas the combination of UV-EMS mutation resulted in transversion mutations. Base alterations in UV13 and EM31 mutants, causing missense and silent mutation, while in UM23 mutant only silent mutations occur. The bgl1 gene analysis showed that mutation using UV light was more effective than using EMS or a combination of UV-EMS in Penicillium sp. ID10-T065.

ID10-T065 has been mutated using ultraviolet (UV), ethyl methyl sulfonate (EMS) and the combination of UV-EMS to increase Beta-glucosidase (bgl) activity. There were three mutants selected, UV13 (UV mutant), EM31 (EMS mutant), and UM23 (UV-EMS mutant). This study examined the mutations in the bgl gene encoding (bgl1) as well as sequence differences between mutants and wild-type of Penicillium sp. ID10-T065. The gene analysis was performed by PCR amplification and sequencing of the bgl1 gene. The results of bgl1 gene sequences (600 bp) from mutants were aligned with the wild-type, it was discovered that there were base alterations from position 2025 to 2050. Mutant UV13 showed the highest base alterations (7 bases) which occurred at position 2027 (T→C); 2036 (T→G); 2040 (T→G); 2047 (G→C); and 2048-2050 (TTG→GGA). Mutant EM31 showed alterations in five bases at positions 2034 (G→A), 2036 (T→G), 2037 (G→C), 2044 (G→C), and 2047 (G→T). Mutant UM23 showed two base alterations at position 2025 (T→A) and 2037 (G→C). UV irradiation and EMS mutation resulted in transition and transversion DNA, whereas the combination of UV-EMS mutation resulted in transversion mutations. Base alterations in UV13 and EM31 mutants, causing missense and silent mutation, while in UM23 mutant only silent mutations occur.

Bogor Botanical Gardens is a conservation area that assists the preservation of flora in Indonesia, including the Araceae. Araceae is often used by the public as medicine, food sources, and ornamental plants. Therefore, the Araceae is often used as an interesting research object and conservation efforts have commenced maintaining its sustainability. The purpose of this research was to determine the species of living Araceae and the potential possessed by each living Araceae species in the conservation area of the Bogor Botanical Gardens. This research was conducted on 8-9 June 2021 to determine the diversity and potential of the Araceae in Bogor Botanical Gardens. The method used in this research is the exploring method and data analysis using descriptive method. The result of this research revealed there were 60 species of Araceae consisting of 25 genera. The genera with the highest number of species are Philodendron. Two species of them are Araceae which has a habitat in the waters. A total of 33 species are terrestrial and 25 are epiphytic plants. Araceae have many potentials, such as food, aromatic, medicine, flavoring, animal feed, and ornamental plants. More than 50% of the Araceae species were used as ornamental plants.
