ABSTRAK<br /><br />Daun singkong pahit (Manihot esculenta)memiliki kandungan antinutrisi berupa asam sianida (HCN) yang tinggi, namun HCN dapat di degradasi dengan bakteri rumen. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengamati karakteristik produk dan efektivitas enkapsulasi bakteri pendegradasi sianida dengan masa simpan (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 14, 21, 28 hari) pada suhu ruang. Peubah yang diamati adalah karakteristik produk dan viabilitas bakteri pendegradasi sianida terenkapsulasi. Data yang diperoleh dianalisa dengan sidik ragam (ANOVA) menggunakan program SPSS 16.0. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa lama penyimpanan berpengaruh terhadap perubahan warna dan bentuk dari produk hasil enkapsulasi. Penyimpanan produk enkapsulasi bakteri pendegradasi sianida selama 3 hari tidak mempengaruhiviabilitas bakteri dibandingkan kontrol. Namun demikian semakin lama penyimpanan produk enkapsulasi bakteri sampai hari ke 28 nyata menurunkan (P&lt;0.05) viabilitas bakteri.Hasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa dengan teknik enkapsulasi dapat mempertahankan viabilitas bakteri pendegradasi sianida.<br /><br />Kata kunci: bakteri pendegradasi sianida, karakteristik produk, penyimpanan,viabilitas<br /><br />ABSTRACT<br /><br />Bitter cassava leaves have high antinutrients in the form of cyanide acid (HCN), but HCN can be degraded with rumen bacteria. This research aimed to observe the product characteristics and the effectivity of cyanide degradation bacteria capsulation with different length of storages (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 14, 21, 28 days)in the room temperature. The observed variables were product characteristics and viability of cyanide degrading bacteriacapsulation. The data obtained were analyzed by Analysis of variance (ANOVA) using SPSS 16.0 program. The results showed that storages duration affected the color and shape of cyanide degradation bacteria capsulation products. The storage of capsulated HCN degrading bacteria up to 3 days did not affect the viability of bacteria compared to the control treatment. However, the longer storage of capsulated bacteria up to 28 days, significant decreased (P&lt;0.05) the viability of the bacteria. It is concluded that capsulation of cyanide degrading bacteria could maintain the viability of bacteria.<br /><br />Keywords: cyanide degradation bacterial, product characteristics, storage, viability

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz), one of the major sources of carbohydrates throughout the tropics, was found to be very tolerant to high soil acidity in two Ultisols and one Oxisol. About 85% of maximum yields were obtained when Al saturation of the effective cation exchange capacity of the soil was around 60%, but highest yields were attained at about pH 5.3 with no exchangeable Al. Soil acidity factors did not affect the chemical composition of the cassava leaves, except for Mn, which increased with decreasing pH of the Oxisol. Tolerance of cassava to soil acidity was also confirmed by the fact that yields of 12 commercial varieties were not affected by Al saturation levels varying from 0 to 60% in an Ultisol.

Exploring ways to improve stand establishment and crop productivity under abiotic stresses like drought is important. Two years experiments were conducted at University of Agriculture, Peshawar-Pakistan to examine the efficacy of six pre-sowing seed hardening agents. Seeds of wheat cultivar Uqab-2000 were hardened in six different chemicals of various concentration viz; PEG-8000 (10%), CaCl2 (4%), KNO3, (3%), Mannital (4%), NaCl (5%), Na2SO4 (2%) along with water soaking and dry seeds as control for 24 hours and drying back to original moisture content at room temperature. The soaking and drying of seeds was repeated twice for 12 hours. The results showed that pre-sowing hardening of seed with PEG-8000, CaCl2 and KNO3 gave higher germination, decreased days to 50% germination, increased shoot length, root length, seedling fresh and dry weight in laboratory experiment as compared with other hardening and control treatment. Under field conditions, maximum plant height (93.53cm), spikelet’s spike-1 (17.16), grains spike-1 (50.82), 1000 grain weight (39.97 g), grain yield (3482 kg ha-1) and maximum harvest index (32.5%) were observed in PEG-8000 hardened seed than control treatment (2872 kg ha-1). Seed hardened in PEG-8000, CaCl2 and KNO3 gave 30% increase in grain yield as compared to Mannital, NaCl and Na2SO4 which gave 15% increase in grain yield over control treatment.

Four groups of local mung bean Vigna radiate were soaked for 24h. Three of these were germinated for 1, 2 and 3 days at room temperature 23˚Cusing wet cloths between technique while the fourth was depending as a soaking sample in addition to control treatment without soaking. Approximate chemical composition (crud protein, oil, ash, moisture, fibers and carbohydrates) and mung protein isolates (MPI) with its solubility SP and degree of hydrolysis DH, were determined for four dehulling groups besides control sample. Dehulling mung bean DMB flour contained 23.53, 1.83, 3.11, 7.5, 17.14 and 46.89% crud protein, oil, ash, moisture, fibers and carbohydrates, respectively. While the values of MPI, SP, and DH were 12.85, 1.5 and 1.4 % respectively .During germination significantly increasing in (CP) (MPI) and (DH) and the maximum values were 25.29, 15.34 and 2.11%respectively after two days, while maximum value was 9.53% for protein solubility after 3 days of germination. While oil content diminished a little and slight inconstant changes were shown in fibers and rest carbohydrates.

Cassava Leaves (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is one of the food resources that many people consume as vegetables in some regions. People believe that it has natural antioxidant compounds such as phenolic and flavonoids.  Also,  it  contains  HCN  elements  known  as  toxic  compounds. However, HCN levels can be reduced by dry heating and boiling. Phenolic and flavonoids are not resistant to heating and are easily oxidized. This article aim to assess the effect of temperature to antioxidant activity and the decrease of HCN level of cassava leaves. The pretreatment  heating  by oven (dry heating) and cooking (boiling heating) greatly affects to the antioxidant activity and  the reduction of cyanide acid (HCN) level in cassava leaves. This article may be useful for any one or any researcher to determine pretreatment heating temperature and heating method  to process prepare cassava leaves.                        Peer Review History: Received 6 November  2020; Revised 25 Decembe; Accepted 4 January, Available online 15 January 2021 UJPR follows the most transparent and toughest ‘Advanced OPEN peer review’ system.

Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the crossability between cassava (Manihot esculenta subsp. esculenta) cultivars and the subspecies M. esculenta subsp. flabellifolia and M. esculenta subsp. peruviana. Plants from the BRS Jari, BRS Formosa, BRS Verdinha, and BGM 2050 (Equador 72) cultivars were crossed with the two subspecies. During flowering, at pre-anthesis, pistillate flowers were covered with a nylon bag and staminate flowers on the same inflorescence were emasculated. The staminate flowers were collected and placed in flasks previously labeled and sterilized with alcohol; some fresh flowers were stored at room temperature due to asynchronous flowering. The crosses were made between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. After pollination, the flowers were covered again. Evaluations were made from the moment of pollination to the dehiscence of the fruit. Of the total flowers pollinated, 38% were fertilized, and 504 developed fruits and 816 produced seeds were observed. As a male parent, M. esculenta subsp. flabellifolia is more efficient in crosses with M. esculenta subsp. esculenta and may be recommend for controlled crosses. The crosses between the cassava cultivars and M. esculenta subsp. flabellifolia and M. esculenta subsp. peruviana produce viable seeds.
