Collection and selection are important steps in a breeding activity series. The purpose of this research is to produce new superior varieties of sweet corn, chilli and cowpea, as this research is also a bridge between researchers/lecturers (seed producer) and farmers (seed users). This research was conducted in Gunung Gede experimental garden, IPB Diploma Programs, commenced from August to December 2010. The genetic materials used are 1 (one) genotype of corn, 10 genotypes of cowpea, and 12 genotypes of chilli. The plant materials are strains produced by the Plant Breeding and Genetics Laboratory of Agronomy and Horticulture Department, IPB. The experiment was done in Randomized Block Complete Design, one factor is genotype. The negative and positive selection was applied on sweet corn selection, while the index selection was applied on chilli and cowpea. Selection on corn (with 20% of selection proportion) produced 30 best plants. This step can be used as a startup to get the next population (with upturned genetics) to be better. The 5002046 is the best chilli genotype; meanwhile Cilibende, Kencana, K7 and Majalengka are the best cowpea genotypes. Selected chilli and cowpea genotypes are candidat lines for good seed production.Keywords: corn, cowpea, chili, seed, selection.

The aim of this study was to develop an efficient method for the induction of embryogenic callus formation for in vitro propagation ofjatropha. Plant materials used were 30-days old in vitro seedlings, cut into hypocotyl and cotyledon (lower, middle and upper) sections.Medium used was MS composition supplemented with vitamins, 3% sucrose, 0.7% agar at pH 5.8 ± 1, and 2,4-D (0, 1, 2, 3, 4 dan5 mg l-1). Cultures were kept at temperature of 25 ± 1 0C with 50 μmol m-2 s-1 light intensity and 16-h photoperiod. The results indicated thatthe rate of callus formation depended on the source of explant, the application of 2,4-D, and the interaction of both. The fastest callusproliferation (2.33 days following initiation) was obtained on cotyledon explants cultured on medium without 2,4-D. The explant sourcesand 2,4-D concentrations also showed significant effect on the percentage of explant forming callus. The most callus formation (88.33%)was obtained on middle cotyledon cultured on 3 mg l-1 2,4-D, whereas the fewest (6.84%) was found on upper cotyledon cultured on mediumwithout 2,4-D. The colour of callus was dominated by white, light yellow, cream and brown with mostly compact structure, particularly onhypocotyl cultured on medium without 2,4-D. The texture of callus formed on hypocotyl treated with up to 4 mg l -1 2,4-D was dominatedby coarse appearance. In contrast, majority of callus proliferated on hypocotyl treated with 5 mg l -1 2,4-D or cotyledon treated with orwithout 2,4-D produced callus with smooth texture %.

Extremely large scale of grain processing leads to a very high risk of incidents related to fire or dust explosion. Only in 2018 there were several outbreaks associated with the storage and transport of grain materials, the largest of which took place in May in South Sioux City, Nebraska. Poland is one of the largest grain producers in Europe and in the world. The annual grain production in Poland is about 35 million tons, including about 10 million tons of wheat, 5 million tons of triticale, 4 million tons of barley and 1.5 million tons of oats. Such an amount of grain material means that there is a high probability of failure during the storage processes (i.e. drying, pouring), transport and processing. Current research shows that of all dust explosions, those related to the food-agricultural and fodder industry account for nearly 25%. The most vulnerable are silos, dedusting and ventilation systems (including dryers and warehouses for drying grains). In October 2013, in the BulkTerminal in Gdańsk, there was an explosion and fire in a grain silo. The rescue operation lasted nearly 4 hours and about 10 tons of grain have burned (20% of the total stored grain material). The purpose of this article is to describe the results of research on the phenomenon of flammability and explosibility of industrial dusts on the four most popular grains in Poland.

The experiment was aimed to predict the relationship between rumen degradation parameters and chemical composition, especially acid detergent lignin, and molecular structure profiles of lignin (the relative content ratio of syringyl and guaiacyl unit) of twenty-two herbaceous and leguminous forage, which were commonly used as roughage for dairy cows in the northeast of China. Analyses of the spectra of forage materials' high boiling solvent lignin samples showed that common features and specific vibrations to each unique lignin were found in the spectrum. In this paper, the spectra of materials high boiling solvent lignin demonstrated absorption at the band around 1332 cm–1 (syringyl) and 1258 cm–1 (guaiacyl). The spectra indicated that the lignin of the plant materials used in this study are H-G-S type. A broad range was found among the chemical composition for each feedstuff. The degradation kinetics characteristics among feedstuffs also had relatively large range of variation. The relative content ratio of syringyl (S) and guaiacyl (G) unit of leguminous samples positively correlated with some rumen degradation characteristics. However, there was no correlation between relative content ratio of S and G unit and degradation parameters among the herbaceous materials (p > 0.05). According to analyses, content acid detergent lignin (ADL) and relative content ratio of S and G could be the predictors of the degradation parameters expect SCP among forage. In conclusion, the relative content ratio of S and G might be potentially used to predict some of the degradation parameters (Kd CP, EDCP, SNDF) of leguminous feedstuffs.

Plants have been historically used for diabetes treatment and related anti-inflammatory activity throughout the world; few of them have been validated by scientific criteria. Recently, a large diversity of animal models has been developed for better understanding the pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus and its underlying inflammatory mechanism and new drugs have been introduced in the market to treat this disease. The aim of this work is to review the available animal models of diabetes and anti-inflammatory activity along with somein vitromodels which have been used as tools to investigate the mechanism of action of drugs with potential antidiabetic properties and related anti-inflammatory mechanism. At present, the rigorous procedures for evaluation of conventional antidiabetic medicines have rarely been applied to test raw plant materials used as traditional treatments for diabetes; and natural products, mainly derived from plants, have been tested in chemically induced diabetes model. This paper contributes to design new strategies for the development of novel antidiabetic drugs and its related inflammatory activity in order to treat this serious condition which represents a global public health problem.

Qualitative and quantitative determinations were made of the available carbohydrates and the component sugars of hemicellulose in the aerial parts of a number of species of grasses and legumes cultured in the northern area of Japan. Plant materials used were leaf sheaths and stems from 25 species of grasses in the heading stage, and of 5 species of legumes at the flowering stage. The plants were found to vary in the type of storage carbohydrate contained in the aerial parts. Some species contained fructosan and sucrose, others starch and sucrose, while a few species contained very little fructosan or starch but mainly sucrose. The fructosan-storing species are members of the subfamily Festucoidea which are native to temperate or cooler climates. The species classified under subfamilies Eragrostoidea, Panicoidea, and Bambsoidea which are native to warmer climates, accumulated starch rather than fructosan. The hemicelluloses of southern grasses also contained a higher proportion of glucose relative to xylose than those of the northern grasses or subfamily Festucoidea. The plants were classified into groups according to differences in the type and relative proportion of individual carbohydrates and the results are discussed from a taxonomic point of view.

Abstract. Abbas B, Tjolli I, Munarti. 2020. Genetic diversity of sago palm (Metroxylon sagu) accessions based on plastid cpDNA matK gene as DNA barcoding. Biodiversitas 21: 219-225. Metroxylon sagu Rottb is one of the plant species including in the Palmae family that deposits starch in the trunk. Sago palm was reported has high capability to produce a large amount of starch and large variation starch qualities which were mostly influenced by genetic factors. The objectives of this study are revealed sequence chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) associated with matK genes for the genetic diversity identification of sago palm accessions. Plant materials used in the studies were derived from Sago Research Center (SRC) collection. DNA extraction has adopted the procedure of Plant Genomic DNA Mini Kit. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed by using primer sets of MatK-1RKIM-f and MatK-3FKIM-r. DNA PCR product was sequenced by the 1st Base Asia, Singapore. Results of the study showed that the cpDNA sequence associated with matK genes in the genome of sago palm showed differences among accessions. Molecular diversities of sago palm accessions based on matK gene showed sago palm accessions separated into two genotypes. Genotype-1 incorporated of ten individuals of 15 accessions and genotype-2 incorporated five individuals of 15 accessions. A mutation site and deletion site occurred in the sequences of matK gene of the Genotype-2. Ten of the 15 sequences of the matK gene (belong to Genotype-1) were registered in the GenBank, NCBI as DNA barcoding and authenticity of sago palm germplasm from Papua islands, Indonesia territorials.
