This study aimed at investigating growth-related, EST-derived microsatellite markers in Nile tilapia (O. niloticus). The link between alleles and genotypes of these makers was particularly examined, as well as the growth performances of the samples of offspring produced from the broodstocks of 5 different fishery stations in Thailand. A total of 25 families of offspring were reared to observe the growth performance for a period of 83 days. Fish samples in this study were divided into two categories according to average body weight: fast (+SD) and slow (-SD) growth. Then, the fins of the fish samples were employed to perform DNA analysis. From the fast and slow growth evaluations, 3 families, namely F1, F24 (from Chumphon) and F11 (from Petchaburi), were chosen for the association analysis. A total of 30 fishes with 5 samples from fast and slow growth of each family were utilized. Nineteen EST-derived microsatellite markers were used to genotype 30 DNA samples of the fast and slow growth fishes. Out of 19 loci, 14 loci (i.e., OMO392, OMO051, OMO097, OMO072, OMO327, OMO277, OMO122, OMO193, OMO198, OMO200, OMO335, OMO374, OMO049, and OMO069) were found polymorphic. Another 4 loci (i.e., OMO059, OMO068, OMO315, and OMO337) were observed as monomorphic. Based on the genotype data, there appeared to indicate a strong, significant relationship between allele and growth of the A3 allele of OMO392 locus in the fast growth group. However, no significant genotypes regarding 19 EST-microsatellite were found to be related with growth. This study suggests that the identified allele A3, which has designated the growth hormone related EST-derived microsatellite primer OMO392, can potentially be used to facilitate marker-assisted selection regarding the fast growth of O. niloticus.

The quality of food that is good in bacteriological, chemical and physical must always be maintained in order to avoid diseases or health problems. Healthy and safe food is an important factor to improve the standard of public health. Seblak is a ready-to-eat Indonesian food which until now has never been carried out research about what kinds of bacteria in it. Seblak is a food made from raw crackers which is then deliberately soaked using hot water to have a chewy texture. This study aims to determine what types of bacteria are contained in seblak, through the process of isolation and identification in the macroscopic, microscopic and biochemical way. This study used 5 samples, which was repeated 5 times for each sample. Bacteria were isolated from the sample using spread plate techniques and observed by growing colonies on the plate. Each different colonies was observed microscopically through gram staining and endospore staining. To strengthen the data, biochemical tests were also carried out, biochemical tests that have been done in this study were the oxidase test, catalase test, and indole test. The results of the study showed that the bacteria that were found from the samples are in the genus of Bacillus sp. because they show the morphological characteristics of the colonies that form concentric circles, meanwhile, microscopic observations show morphological characteristics of cells in the form of gram-negative bacilli and have the endospores.

The current study was focused on isolating and identifying methionine producing bacteria from poultry waste. The bacteria were isolated from poultry waste and the ones which specifically produced methionine on solid agar medium, using a methionine requiring auxotroph (Escherichia coli) were kept for further analysis. Methionine assay was also carried out after fermentation to quantify methionine produced by each isolate. A total of 10 bacteria were isolated of which 2 were confirmed as active methionine producers after halo growth was observed on the solid agar medium. These 2 isolates which produced higher amount of methionine were ultimately selected for further investigation. The methionine producing isolates which were designated PW1 and PW3 were identified as Bacillus sp. respectively after biochemical tests were carried out. The test carried out include; gram staining, motility test, catalase test, citrate test, hemolysis test, indole test, penicillin sensitivity, oxidase test and crystal colony formation. Where PW3 (Bacillus sp.) produced greater amount of methionine (0.54 mg/l), while PW1 (Bacillus sp.) produced 0.20 mg/l after the completion of the methionine assay. Keywords: Keywords: Methionine production, Bacillus species, poultry waste.

Introduksi ikan nila atau “serapia” (Oreochromis niloticus) di Danau Paniai bertujuan untuk meningkatkan diversitas hasil tangkapan dan mengurangi tekanan eksploitasi terhadap jenis ikan endemik. Pertumbuhan dan produksi ikan nila yang cepat tanpa diiringi upaya pengelolaan akan mengancam keberlanjutan ikan endemik di danau. Upaya pengelolaan sumberdaya ikan di suatu perairan membutuhkan informasi dinamika populasi. Penelitian dinamika dan pengelolaan populasi ikan nila dilakukan pada bulan Februari sampai Oktober 2016. Contoh ikan dikumpulkan dari hasil tangkapan nelayan dengan menggunakan jaring insang dengan berbagai ukuran mata jaring dan dari 4 (empat) enumerator pada tujuh stasiun pengamatan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan populasi ikan nila di Danau Paniai didominasi ukuran panjang individu antara 15-25 cm sebanyak 67,24%. Pola pertumbuhan ikan jantan dan betina adalah isometrik, panjang maksimum rata-rata (L) adalah 37,28 cm dan koefisien pertumbuhan (K) adalah 0,50 per tahun. Mortalitas alami (M) dan mortalitas penangkapan (F) masing-masing sebesar 0,99 dan 0,54 per tahun. Tingkat eksploitasi (E) diperoleh nilai 0,35 lebih kecil dari nilai optimum (E=0,5). Ukuran rata-rata ikan nila tertangkap (Lc) adalah 20,55 cm lebih besar dari ukuran pertama matang gonad (Lm) sebesar 14,73 cm. Nilai Lc>Lm mengindikasikan sebagian besar populasi ikan nila di Danau Paniai sempat melakukan pemijahan sehingga pemanfaatan lebih atau sama dengan nilai optimum diharapkan dapat meningkatkan pemanfataan ikan nila di Danau Paniai. Introduction of nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) in Lake Paniai known as “serapia” is aimed for improving the diversity of catches and reducing the exploitation pressure on the endemic fish species. The rapid growth, reproduction and production of nile tilapia without its management efforts is a new threat to the sustainability of the existence and utilization of endemic fish species in the lake. Management efforts of fish resources require population dynamics information. Research on the dynamics and management of nile tilapia populations was conducted from February to October 2016. Fish samples were collected from fishermen catches using nets with various mesh sizes and from four enumerators at seven observation stations. The results showed that the population of nile tilapia in Lake Paniai was dominated by individual length between 15-25 cm with frequency of 67,24%. The growth pattern of male and female fish were isometric, the average maximum length (L) was 37.28 cm and the growth coefficient (K) was 0.50 per year. Natural mortality (M) and fishing mortality (F) were 0.99 and 0.54 per year respectively. Exploitation rate (E) of 0.35 was smaller than the optimum value (E=0.5). The average size of nile tilapia captured (Lc) was 20.55 cm larger than the first size of gonad maturity (Lm) of 14.73 cm. The Lc value was higher than that the Lm value(Lc>Lm) indicating that most of nile tilapia population in Lake Paniai has spawned so that increasing the more or equal to the optimum value was expected to improve the of nile tilapia fish in Lake Paniai.

A novel thermotolerant bacterium, designated SgZ-8T, was isolated from a compost sample. Cells were non-motile, endospore-forming, Gram-staining positive, oxidase-negative and catalase-positive. The isolate was able to grow at 20–65 °C (optimum 50 °C) and pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum 6.5–7.0), and tolerate up to 9.0 % NaCl (w/v) under aerobic conditions. Anaerobic growth occurred with anthraquinone-2,6-disulphonate (AQDS), fumarate and NO3 - as electron acceptors. Phylogenetic analysis based on the16S rRNA and gyrB genes grouped strain SgZ-8T into the genus Bacillus , with the highest similarity to Bacillus badius JCM 12228T (96.2 % for 16S rRNA gene sequence and 83.5 % for gyrB gene sequence) among all recognized species in the genus Bacillus . The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 49.3 mol%. The major isoprenoid quinone was menaquinone 7 (MK-7) and the polar lipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and an unidentified phospholipid. The major cellular fatty acid was iso-C16 : 0. On the basis of its phenotypic and phylogenetic properties, chemotaxonomic analysis and the results of physiological and biochemical tests, strain SgZ-8T ( = CCTCC AB 2012108T = KACC 16706T) was designated the type strain of a novel species of the genus Bacillus , for which the name Bacillus thermotolerans sp. nov. is proposed.

Marine environment remained as largely unexplored source for researchers to discover marine microorganisms with novel properties. This study aims to isolate marine bacteria from the seashore of Desaru, Malaysia. Totally, six bacterial strains were successfully obtained and were identified by complete 16S rRNA sequencing. The characterizations of bacterial strains were performed based on morphological tests, Gram-staining, biochemical tests, and antibiotic sensitivity. The 16S rRNA sequence of D-2, D-4, D-7, D-15, D-31, and D-33 revealed a high identity of 97 to 99% with taxa belong to genera of Pseudomonas, Marinomonas, Exiquobacterium, Micrococcus, Pseudoalteromonas, and Shewanella respectively. Strain D-31 exhibited higher tolerance towards antibiotics kanamycin, ampicillin, and erythromycin while the growth of other strains were retarded by at least two of these antibiotics. We further characterized strain D-4 and D-31 that belonged to Marinomonas sp. and Pseudoalteromonas sp.. Both genera are interesting as earlier researchers have discovered new antibacterial substances, industrial enzymes and unique secondary metabolites.
