Cabbages (Brassica Juncea (L.) Czern) were grown in pot experiments on typical unpolluted and polluted soils with concentration changing from 20.50 - 50.00 mg As/kg and 156.00 - 413.00 mg Cu/kg dry soil. The results demonstrate the elevation of As and Cu in soil may lead to increased uptake by these cabbages subsequent entry into human food chain. It was found 11.84- 32.12 mg As/kg and 46.86 - 94.47 mg Cu/kg dry leaves. It has tendency increase uptake and accumulation of Cu in cabbage tissue with increasing cultivated time, whereas, it was found accumulation of As in cabbages tissue decreased with time prolonging. The quantity of As and Cu in these cabbages, were significant higher than 0.2 mg As/kg and 5.0 mg Cu/kg fresh vegetable, the permissible limit concentration in fresh vegetable. This indicated that human may As and Cu exposure occur through eating these vegetables.

Space flight, with its unique environmental constraints such as immobilization, decreased and increased pressures, and radiation, is known to affect testicular morphology and spermatogenesis. Selye, summarized the manifestations of physiological response to nonspecific stress and he pointed out that atrophy of the gonads always occurred. Reports of data collected from two dogs flown in space for 22 days (Cosmos 110) indicate that there was an increase of 30 to 70% atypical spermatozoa when compared to ground based controls. Seventy-five days after the flight the abnormalities had decreased to the high normal value of 30% and mating of these dogs after this period produced normal offspring, suggesting complete recovery. Effects of immobilization and increased gravity were investigated by spinning rats and mice at 2x g for 8-9 weeks. A decrease in testicular weight was noted in spun animals when compared to controls. Immobilization has been show to cause arrest of spermatogenesis in Macaca meminstrins.

Space Lab 3 (SL-3) was flown on Shuttle Challenger providing an opportunity to measure the effect of spaceflight on rat testes. Cannon developed the idea that organisms react to unfavorable conditions with highly integrated metabolic activities. Selye summarized the manifestations of physiological response to nonspecific stress and he pointed out that atrophy of the gonads always occurred. Many papers have been published showing the effects of social interaction, crowding, peck order and confinement. Flickinger showed delayed testicular development in subordinate roosters influenced by group numbers, social rank and social status. Christian reported increasing population size in mice resulted in adrenal hypertrophy, inhibition of reproductive maturation and loss of reproductive function in adults. Sex organ weights also declined. Two male dogs were flown on Cosmos 110 for 22 days. Fedorova reported an increase of 30 to 70% atypical spermatozoa consisting of tail curling and/or the absence of a tail.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari variabilitas genetik, heritabilitas, dan menyeleksi penampilan genotipe karakter agronomi unggul pada 57 galur sawi untuk digunakan dalam bahan baku konsumsi dan industri. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Seed Bank and Nursery, Agrotechno Park Universitas Brawijaya, Desa Jatikerto, Kecamatan Kromengan, Kabupaten Malang pada bulan Desember 2018 – April 2019. Metode yang digunakan untuk penelitian ini adalah rancangan acak kelompok diperluas (augmented design). Perlakuan yang diberikan adalah 60 genotipe sawi yang terdiri dari 57 genotipe yang diuji dan 3 varietas sebagai cek. Genotipe yang diuji akan disebar kedalam 5 blok, sedangkan tiga varietas cek akan ditanam pada setiap blok, sehingga terdapat 72 satuan percobaan. Variabel pengamatan karakter agronomi terdiri dari 15 karakter kualitatif dan 24 karakter kuantitatif. Variabilitas yang luas terdapat pada karakter biji per polong, jumlah polong per tanaman, dan berat segar. Heritabilitas tinggi terdapat pada karakter panjang kotiledon, jumlah daun konsumsi, berat segar, umur panen benih, jumlah polong per tanaman, panjang polong, lebar polong, dan jumlah biji per polong. Terdapat galur-galur sawi yang mempunyai karakter unggul untuk bahan baku konsumsi dan industri.
