The genetic polymorphism of eight red cell enzymes was analyzed in population samples from the Northwest African Continent and from the South of Spain in order to study their genetic relationships with the Canarian population. The Moroccan, Berber and Spanish populations, although geographically more distant from the Canary Islands than the Saharan and Mauritanian ones, are genetically more closely related to the Canarian population. The glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase Gc allele earlier found only in the Canary Islands was detected in the Berber sample. The Spanish, Berber and African Black contributions to the Canarian hybrid population was estimated to 70, 20 and 10%, respectively.

Organic waste of public market is one of the problems that greatly impact public health. The technology of processing public market waste into compost is a very good alternative, yet how long does it take, to process into compost and any nutrient contained requires research on this matter, as well as its application to plants, in this case, agarwood. The method used in this study was the experimental method with the old treatment of compost formation, as well as its application to agarwood plant using a completely randomized design (CRD). The results showed that 28 days of composting contained nutrients in the form of ions which were more easily absorbed by plants compared to nutrient content at duration 7 days. This is supported by the application of compost, where the addition of compost is very influential on the height of agarwood. As such, compost from organic ingredients is very well applied to agarwood plant.

The potential lines of West Papua local waxy corn has been already obtained in the previous studies, but the yields have not been further tested. In seed certification for the release of varieties from plant breeding results, it is necessary to conduct multilocation tests to obtain stable and superior yields in various locations. The aim of this research is to test the continued yield of potential lines of West Papua's local waxy corn at several areas in West Papua Province. The study was conducted in Prafi and West Manokwari Districts. The method used was an observational method using a Randomized Complete Block Design of 2 factors: Factor 1 was treatment of 7 local corn genotypes and factor 2 was treatment of 2 locations. Each treatment was repeated 3 times. Variables were observed included yield components of the maize genotypes tested. The data obtained were analyzed using ANOVA and if it had a significant effect, further BNJ test was performed at 95% confidence level. The results showed that productivity (seed weight ha-1) of the 7 genotypes tested were:  1) Ranging from 2.72 tons ha-1 (KM-BC3F1) to 7.66 tons ha-1 (AM-BC3F1 ) in the Prafi District, 2) from 3.30 tons ha-1 (AP-BC3F1) to 7.46 tons ha-1 (KL) in the West Manokwari District, and  3)   from 3.28 tons ha-1 (KM-BC3F1) to 5.92 tons ha-1 (AM-BC3F1) in the G x L interactions.  Genotype AM-BC3F1, AP-BC3F1, and P have higher productivity in Prafi District, on the contrary genotype KM-BC3F1, KP-BC3F1, AL, and KL have higher productivity in West Manokwari District.

Fisheries activities in Aipiri Village are traditional activities. Using rowboats, the fishing grounds for fishermen are around the beach in front of the village. Some fishermen use motorboats with a wider range of fish catches. Repairing motorboat damage is usually done by calling a trained repairman because fishermen do not yet have adequate equipment to repair them. Community service activities aim to carry out counseling and provide workshop equipment and coolboxes to groups of fishermen in Aipiri village. The activity began with the Unipa Postgraduate team receiving workshop equipment from the Dinas Perindustrian dan Perdagangan of West Papua Province which was symbolically handed over to the Postgraduate Director. Furthermore, the team distributed to groups of fishermen in Aipiri village and conducted counseling for 5 groups of fishermen. Cooperation with partners has succeeded in distributing assistance in the form of workshop tools and coolboxes. It is hoped that the workshop equipment can improve the economy of the fishing community in Aipiri village. Keywords: Aipiri; Fisherman; Workshop tools   ABSTRAK  Kegiatan perikanan di Kampung Aipiri berupa kegiatan tradisional dengan menggunakan perahu dayung. Beberapa nelayan menggunakan perahu motor dengan jangkauan tangkapan ikan yang lebih luas.  Perbaikan kerusakan pada perahu motor biasanya dilakukan dengan memanggil orang bengkel yang terlatih karena para nelayan belum memiliki peralatan yang memadai.  Kegiatan ini bertujuan untuk memberikan penyuluhan dan bantuan peralatan bengkel dan coolbox kepada kelompok nelayan di Kampung Aipiri. Kegiatan diawali dengan tim Pascasarjana Unipa menerima bantuan berupa peralatan perbengkelan dari Dinas Perindustrian dan Perdagangan Provinsi Papua Barat yang diserahkan kepada Direktur Pascasarjana secara simbolis.  Selanjutnya tim mendistribusikan ke kelompok nelayan kampung Aipiri sekaligus melaksanakan penyuluhan tentang pemeliharaan perahu motor kepada 5 kelompok nelayan. Hasil penyuluhan menunjukkan bahwa tingkat pemahaman kelompok nelayan terhadap pemeliharaan perahu motor meningkat. Kelompok nelayan memahami bagian-bagian motor yang perlu dilakukan pemeliharaan dan perbaikan. Kerjasama dengan mitra telah berhasil menyalurkan bantuan berupa alat perbengkelan dan coolbox. Diharapkan bantuan peralatan tersebut dapat meningkatkan perekonomian masyarakat nelayan di kampung Aipiri. Kata kunci: Aipiri; Alat perbengkelan; Nelayan
