Silicon (Si) is the second most abundant element in soil after oxygen. It is not an essential element for plant growth and formation but plays an important role in increasing plant tolerance towards different kinds of abiotic and biotic stresses. The molecular mechanism of Si absorption and accumulation may differ between plants, such as monocotyledons and dicotyledons. Silicon absorption and accumulation in mangrove plants are affected indirectly by some proteins rich in serine and proline amino acids. The expression level of the genes responsible for Si absorption varies in different parts of plants. In this study, Si is mainly observed in the epidermal roots’ cell walls of mangrove plants compared to other parts. The present work was carried out to discover further information on Si stress responsive genes inRhizophora apiculata, using the suppression subtractive hybridization technique. To construct the cDNA library, two-month-old seedlings were exposed to 0.5, 1, and 1.5 mM SiO2for 15 hrs and for 1 to 6 days resulting in a total of 360 high quality ESTs gained. Further examination by RT-PCR and real-time qRT-PCR showed the expression of a candidate gene ofserine-rich protein.

Phenology of tropical forest plant is a population factor and does not include community factor, this is caused by a genetic determinationand also the influence of the environment. Phenology of plants in mangrove correlated with the time of flowering, fruiting, and productionof fruits or propagules. Phenology research in mangrove plants in the Unggas Island, West Pasaman, done with ‘tagging’ technique method.Signs made of plastic and are numbered. Data collection included from the formation of flower blooming, up to the formation of fruit orpropagules ripe. Phase of the development is categorized to two categories: (a) flower, and (b) fruit. The analysis method is the analysis ofvariance (ANOVA, p<0.01) and post-hoc test, Duncans Multiple Range Test (DMRT, p<0.01) to obtain comparison and differencesbetween the components of flower, flower fall, fruit, and fruit maturity.

Mangrove Forest has a role for the life of fauna as a source of feed and shelter for honeybees. Honeybees need feed to maintain their survival in nature, so that the availability of the feed generated by flowers in the form of nectar and pollen gives the ability of bees to breed with maximum. This research aims to obtain the type of mangrove plants and pollen, and its potential in Surya Perdana Mandiri Mangrove Forest area. The research method used is a survey method with the example tile determination Purposive Sampling. There are 10 sample compartments of 20 x 20 meters in 2 research lines. Based on the results of the research is known that there are 22 types of mangrove plants, based on observations, 13 of which are the source of honey bee feed, and based on the study of literatures there are 18 The potential feed bees at the highest tree level on the Api-api putih (Avicemia Marina) with an INP value of 82.17% and the smallest value Ceriop decandra 17.50% while at the highest INP stake level of Rhizopora stylosa 76.08% with flowering 83.44% while the smallest INP Ceriop decandra 22.63% with flowering 36.36%. In the area of Mangrove Forest Setapuk Large types of honey bee feed plant available throughout the year, although in quantity varies from month to monthKeywords: bee feed, mangrove, potential, Setapuk Besar

This study aims to determine the types of mangrove plants in the Bhadrika tourist park, Bengkulu Province. This study uses the method of observation. The data obtained are then immediately taken to the laboratory for identification. The identification process by observing the roots, stems, leaves, flowers and fruit.  The mangroves found were, Avicennia alba, Lumnitzera racemosa, Excoecaria agallocha, Aegiceras corniculatum, Bruguiera cylindrical. There were 5 types of mangroves in the Bhadrika Tourism Park which belonged to 5 families.
