P Concentration

Phosphorus (P) often becomes limiting factor for plants growth. Phosphorus geochemistry in peatland soil is associated with the presence of peat layer and groundwater level fluctuations. The research was conducted to study the role of peat layer and groundwater level fluctuations on P concentration in peatland. The research was conducted on deep, moderate and shallow peat with sulphidic material as substratum, peaty acid sulphate soil, and potential acid sulphate soil. While P concentration was observed in wet season, in transition from wet to dry season, and in dry season. Soil samples were collected by using peat borer according to interlayer and soil horizon. The results showed that peat layer might act as the main source of P in peatland with sulphidic material substratum. The upper peat layer on sulphidic material caused by groundwater level fluctuations had no directly effect on P concentration in the peat layers. Increased of P concentration in the lowest sulphidic layer might relate to redox reaction of iron in the sulphidic layer and precipitation process. Phosphorus concentration in peatland with sulphidic material as substratum was not influenced by peat thickness. However, depletion or disappearance of peat layer decreased P concentration in soil solution. Disappearance of peat layer means loss of a natural source of P for peatland with sulphidic material as substratum, therefore peat layer must be kept in order to maintain of peatlands.

ABSTRACTAbout 20 million Ha of tidal swampare found in Indonesia,6.7 million ha of them are acid sulphatesoils which associated with peatland.Most of soil in tidal swamp are rich in iron, it potentialy toxicto the plant. We critically examine the presence of peat matter as surface layer to iron fraction andthe role of ferrous to phosphorus (P) solubility in soil.Iron fractions analyzed in acid sulphate soil,peaty acid sulphate soil, shallow peatland, shallow peatland which all of peat layers were removedand shallow peatland which partially of peat layers were removed. Most of iron fraction in tidalswampland which covered by peat layer is organic-Fe form, the presence of peat layer on surfacelayer caused no correlation between Fe and P in soil.Key words : Acid sulphate soil, Iron, Peatland, Phosphorus andTidal swampland

Leachate Quality

The problem encountered in acid sulphate soil is the presence of pyrite (FeS2) which causes soil  to have highly acid reaction when the pyrite is oxidized. The decline in quality not only occurs on the soil  but also on the quality of the surrounding waters. One way to improve the quality of the leachate is by draining it through biofilter plants in the form of purun tikus (Eleocharis dulcis) and bulu babi (Eleocharis retroflaxa) which can absorb or neutralize these elements. The purpose of this research was to know the inoculant influence of iron oxidizing bacteria to leachate quality in acid sulphate soil. The research was conducted on a pot scale in greenhouse. The research was in randomized block design (RBD) of 3-factors with 3 replications. The first factor was inoculants, the second factor was water management, and the third one was phytoremediation material (Eleocharis dulcis  and Eleocharis retroflaxa). The results showed that the plant height in the inoculant treatment+wood charcoal was in the range of 89.33−95.33 cm, while that in the inoculant treatment+husk charcoal was in the range of 89.50­­­−93.00 cm. Meanwhile, the yield of rice with bacteria oxidizing iron inoculant+wood charcoal was higher, which was at 6.77 ton.ha-1 than inoculant treatment of oxidizing iron+husk charcoal which was only 5.95 ton.ha-1.

Soil Buffering

Much of peatland in Indonesia has sulphidic materials as substratum. Soil acidity and metal elements in peatlandmay originate from the sulphidic materials which occur underneath of the peat layer. Peat soil buffering capacity andchelating ability of the peat materials regulate the soil acidity and metal solubility in the peatland. The study wasaimed to examine the influence of peat thickness and land hydrological conditions on the concentrations ofexchangeable aluminium (Al) and hidrogen (H) in the peatland. The study was carried out on peaty acid sulphatesoil, deep peat, moderate peat and shallow peat. Exchangeable Al and H were observed in the wet season, transitionfrom wet to dry season and dry season. The results showed that exchangeables of Al and H were mainly originatedfrom sulphidic material which were occured underneath of the peat layer. Peat layer had an important role on thesolubility of Al and H in the peatland. Peat thickness had influence on exchangeable-Al and H, 50 cm of the peatthickness (shallow peat) was the critical for peat function to reduce the Al and H solubility in the peatland. Hydrologicalcondition factor did not influence on the solubility of Al and H.Keywords: Aluminium; hydrogen; peatland; sulphidic materials[How to Cite: Fahmi A, B Radjagukguk, B Heru Purwanto and E Hanudin. 2012.

Long-term data on hydrological regime change of the groundwater situated in moraine sandy loam and peat in Lithuanian karst zone presented in the article. The aim of the paper was on the basis of long-term groundwater studies to determine the water level trends. Groundwater level fluctuations mainly dependent on the ground type. The nearest land surface groundwater level (61-174 cm) was measured in peat soil (well 1), in mineral soil (well 2) was deeper (309-584 cm). Correlation between data of the annual precipitation and groundwater level in mineral soils (r2 = 0.416, tact .= 3.48>t95%=1.74) was more significant than in peat soils (r2 = 0.185, tact.=1.96 >t95%=1.74). The highest fluctuations of groundwater level was determined in mineral soil (well 2). According to Mann-Kendall test, the groundwater level significantly increased in February, April and December. Due to warmer winters decreased the duration and depth of the frost, frequent thaw, this cause increased feeding of aquifer in winter.

Abstract The members of myeloblastosis transcription factor (MYB TF) family are involved in the regulation of biotic and abiotic stresses in plants. However, the role of MYB TF in phosphorus remobilization remains largely unexplored. In the present study, we show that an R2R3 type MYB transcription factor, MYB103, is involved in phosphorus (P) remobilization. MYB103 was remarkably induced by P deficiency in cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata L.). As cabbage lacks the proper mutant for elucidating the mechanism of MYB103 in P deficiency, another member of the crucifer family, Arabidopsis thaliana was chosen for further study. The transcript of its homologue AtMYB103 was also elevated in response to P deficiency in A. thaliana, while disruption of AtMYB103 (myb103) exhibited increased sensitivity to P deficiency, accompanied with decreased tissue biomass and soluble P concentration. Furthermore, AtMYB103 was involved in the P reutilization from cell wall, as less P was released from the cell wall in myb103 than in wildtype, coinciding with the reduction of ethylene production. Taken together, our results uncover an important role of MYB103 in the P remobilization, presumably through ethylene signaling.

AbstractPhytic acid is the major organic phosphorus storage compound in rapeseed. Following oil extraction, the defatted meal is used in feed mixtures for livestock. However, monogastric pigs and chickens can only poorly metabolize phytate. Hence, their excrements are rich in phosphorus (P), which when applied as manure may lead to eutrophication of surface waters. The aim of the present study was to analyze the genetic variation for total and organic P concentration (i.e. mainly phytate) in rapeseed and to compare the results with soybean. Two sets of rapeseed material were tested in field experiments in different environments with varying soil P levels and harvested seeds were used for seed quality analysis. Results revealed significant genotypic differences in total seed P concentration, which ranged from 0.47 to 0.94%. Depending on the experiment, the heritability for total P concentration ranged from 52 to 93%. The organic P portion of total P concentration was above 90% for current rapeseed hybrids. In both sets, there was a significant positive correlation between seed protein and P concentration. A NIRS calibration for total P concentration in intact seeds showed in cross validation a standard error of 0.05% and a coefficient of determination of R2 = 0.83. Total P concentration of soybean seeds and meal was between 0.55 and 0.65%, and around 1.1% for rapeseed meal. Rapeseed meal had a twofold higher ratio of total P to nitrogen concentration as compared to soybean which could be considered adverse when the meal is used for feeding livestock.
