Salah satu upaya untuk meningkatkan produksi dan mutu benih di lahan salin yaitu melalui penggunaan metode ratun dengan penambahan bakteri sintetik Synechoccocus sp. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui produksi dan mutu benih padi ratun yang tercekam salinitas dengan penambahan bakteri sintetik Synechoccocus sp. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada bulan Juli - Desember 2015 di Desa Suco, Kecamatan Mumbul Sari Jember dan Laboratorium Teknologi Benih Politeknik Negeri Jember. Rancangan percobaan yang digunakan adalah Rancangan Acak Kelompok Faktorial (RAK) dengan 2 faktor dan 3 ulangan. Faktor pertama adalah cekaman Salinitas (S) yang terdiri dari 5 taraf, S1 = tanpa cekaman (kontrol), S2 = cekaman salinitas 1000 ppm, S3 = cekaman salinitas 2000 ppm, S4 = cekaman salinitas 3000 ppm, S5 = cekaman salinitas 4000 ppm. Faktor kedua inokulasi bakteri sintetik Synechoccocus sp. (B), yang terdiri dari 2 taraf, B1 = tanpa inokulasi bakteri (kontrol), B2 = Inokulasi sintetik Synechoccocus sp. Data dianalisis menggunakan uji F (ANOVA) dan dilanjutkan dengan perhitungan Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT). Hasil penelitian menunjukan perlakuan salinitas 1000 ppm (S2) menghasilkan jumlah anakan ratun produktif tertinggi yaitu 19,33 anakan. Cl- mempunyai fungsi utama dalam reaksi fotosintesis sehingga cekaman salintas pada perlakuan 1000 ppm (S2) dapat ditoleran oleh tanaman padi varietas Ciherang pada fase vegetatif. Pemberian Bakteri (B) Synechococcus sp. mampu menghasilkan tunas ratun tertinggi pada fase vegetatif yaitu 40,10 cm. Interaksi dari dua perlakuan menunjukan hasil yang nyata pada parameter jumlah gabah bernas yaitu cekaman salinitas 4000 ppm dengan inokulasi bakteri (B2S5) menghasilkan gabah bernas yang paling tinggi sebesar 99,06 butir. Inokulasi tanaman dengan Synechococcus sp. mampu meningkatkan kandungan nitrogen dan kandungan klorofil dalam jaringan tanaman. Interaksi antara cekaman salinitas 1000 ppm dengan inokulasi bakteri (B2S2) menghasilkan produksi per Ha yang paling tinggi yaitu 1,389 ton dan potensi produksi per Ha tertinggi yaitu 1.66 ton/ha.

Background: Synechococcus sp. WH8102 is one of the most abundant photosynthetic organisms in many ocean regions. Objective: The aim of this study is to identify genomic islands (GIs) in Synechococcus sp. WH8102 with integrated methods. Methods: We have applied genomic barcode to identify the GIs in Synechococcus sp. WH8102, which could make genomic regions of different origins visually apparent. The gene expression data of the predicted GIs was analyzed through microarray data which was collected for functional analysis of the relevant genes. Results: Seven GIs were identified in Synechococcus sp. WH8102. Most of them are involved in cell surface modification, photosynthesis and drug resistance. In addition, our analysis also revealed the functions of these GIs, which could be used for in-depth study on the evolution of this strain. Conclusion: Genomic barcodes provide us with a comprehensive and intuitive view of the target genome. We can use it to understand the intrinsic characteristics of the whole genome and identify GIs or other similar elements.

Biochemical and physiological studies of Synechococcus cyanobacteria have indicated the presence of a low-Mr heavy-metal-binding protein with marked similarity to eukaryotic metallothioneins (MTs). We report here the characterization of a Synechococcus prokaryotic MT isolated by gel-permeation and reverse-phase chromatography. The large number of variants of this molecule found during chromatographic separation could not be attributed to the presence of major isoproteins as assessed by amino acid analysis and amino acid sequencing of isoforms. Two of the latter were shown to have identical primary structures that differed substantially from the well-described eukaryotic MTs. In addition to six long-chain aliphatic residues, two aromatic residues were found adjacent to one another near the centre of the molecule, making this the most hydrophobic MT to be described. Other unusual features included a pair of histidine residues located in repeating Gly-His-Thr-Gly sequences near the C-terminus and a complete lack of association of hydroxylated residues with cysteine residues, as is commonly found in eukaryotes. Similarly, aside from a single lysine residue, no basic amino acid residues were found adjacent to cysteine residues in the sequence. Most importantly, sequence alignment analyses with mammalian, invertebrate and fungal MT sequences showed no statistically significant homology aside from the presence of Cys-Xaa-Cys structures common to all MTs. On the other hand, like other MTs, the prokaryotic molecule appears to be free of alpha-helical structure but has a considerable amount of beta-structure, as predicted by both c.d. measurements and the Chou & Fasman empirical relations. Considered together, these data suggested that some similarity between the metal-thiolate clusters of the prokaryote and eukaryote MTs may exist.
