Genetic variability and correlation were studied in 36 maize genotypes (15 single cross hybrids, 9 parents and 12 checks), with 26 quality protein maize genotypes among them. They were evaluated at Samaru, Northern Guinea Savanna Zone of Nigeria for two years, 2005 and 2006. The experimental design used was partial lattice design with three replications. Analysis of variance revealed significant differences for all the traits observed. Highest grain yield of 9.5t/ha was obtained from the hybrid: CML178 x CML181.The mean plant height of the genotypes ranged from 51-136cm for the inbred parent CML177 and the hybrid, CML181 x CML176.Significant differences were observed among the genotypes, indicating that they were genetically distinct with regard to the genes controlling the expression of this character. Similarly ear height ranged from 13-53cm, indicating wide variability for this character among the genotypes. Days to maturity which is a baseline for selection of early maturing genotypes ranged from 67-109 days. The inbred parent CML493 had the lowest days to maturity (67-days). This indicates that this inbred parent can be included in cross combinations for selection of early maturity. Highly significant correlation was observed between ear height and plant height (p<0.01). Similarly, days to silking and tasselling correlated positively and significantly at p<0.05. Grain yield correlated positively and significantly with one thousand seed weight (p<0.05). Number of leaves per plant had a significant positive correlation with ear height at p<0.05, indicating that these traits could be selected together for simultaneous improvement. The phenotypic coefficients of variations were higher than the genotypic coefficients of variations for all the traits studied. Thousand seed weight had the highest genotypic coefficients of variation. The highest genetic gain was obtained for plant height. Thousand seed weight and ear height also recorded high genetic gain. It is anticipated that these findings will be useful in future breeding programmes involving this very important crop.

Angiogenesis is a process of forming new capillaries found in the blood vessel system. Angiogenesis plays an important role in tumor growth and metastasis which includes several biological processes. Cancer cells require a supply of nutrients through the blood vessels to grow and develop so that the cancer cells secrete growth substances to stimulate the formation of new blood vessels to meet their nutritional supply. Robusta coffee beans (C.robusta) contain compounds that function as strong antioxidants namely Chlorogenic acid which is a polyphenol group compound that is thought to have antiangiogenesis effects. This study aims to look at the antiangiogenesis potential of robusta coffee bean ethanol extract (C.robusta) with the Chorio Allantoic Membrane (CAM) method and determine the concentration of robusta coffee bean extract (C.robusta) which has the potential as an antiangiogenesis. Antiangiogenesis test using the Chorio Allantoic Membrane (CAM) method using 9-day-old chicken eggs. In this study eggs were divided into 4 groups, group I was the untreated group, groups II, III, IV were groups that were given ethanol extract of robusta coffee beans (C.robusta) with concentrations of 6000 μg/ml, 5500 µg/ml respectively. and 5000 µg/ml. The eggs are re-incubated for 72 hours. In this study, a macroscopic semi-quantitative score was observed. The score data obtained were analyzed statistically by the One Way Anova test. Based on the Saphiro Wilk normality test results, the results of observations of antiangiogenesis in ethanol extracts of Robusta (Coffea robusta) concentrations of 6000 μg/ml, 5500 μg/ml, and 5000 μg/ml obtained a significance value of 0.248 (p>0.05). Continuing the One Way Anova test in the antiangiogenesis test obtained a significance value of 0.007 (p<0.05). Then proceed with the Post Hoc Test. In the test group the concentration of 6000 µg/ml, 5500 µg/ml, and 5000 µg/ml had a value of p>0.05 which means that there were no differences between groups in inhibiting angiogenesis. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that the ethanol extract of robusta coffee beans (C. robusta) 6000 μg/ml, 5500 μg/ml, and 5000 μg/ml has antiangiogenesis effect on Chorio Allantoic Membrane (CAM) of chicken embryo.

The objectives of this study are: 1) to find out the perceptions of small fishermen about PERMEN KP No.1 / 2015 in conjunction with Minister of Marine Affairs and Fisheries Regulation No.56 / 2016, 2) to calculate the social losses of small fishermen after the prohibition policy on the prohibition of fishing for lobster seeds, 3) to calculate the economic losses of small fishermen after lobster seed fishing prohibition policy. This research uses descriptive methods and case studies. Apart from interviews with respondents, it was also conducted using the Focus Group Discussion (FGD) method. The number of respondents was determined as many as 30 people by simple random sampling and the data analysis used consisted of descriptive analysis based on tabulations, and after processing it was presented in tabular form, analysis of people's work days (HKO) and analysis of costs and income.  The results showed: 1) The most dominant perception of fishermen is that the existence of the Minister of Marine Affairs and Fisheries Regulation needs to be reviewed and the compensation provided by the government is not in accordance with the conditions of fishermen 2) Social losses for fishermen in terms of employment of 208 HKO / year, and 3) Economic losses, namely the loss of income of small fishermen of 121,329,000 IDR/ year.

Ketombe adalah kondisi kulit kepala yang biasanya ditandai dengan gatal dan pengelupasan pada kulit kepala, hal ini dapat disebabkan oleh jamur Pityrosporum ovale dan Candida albicans. Kulit Nanas (Ananas comosus (L.) Merr) merupakan suatu bahan alam yang mengandung senyawa yang berkhasiat sebagai antijamur seperti flavonoid, alkaloid, tannin dan enzim bromelain. Selain itu, kandungan enzim bromelain yang terdapat pada kulit nanas (Ananas comosus (L.) Merr) juga berkhasiat sebagai antiinflamasi, antikanker dan antibakteri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui aktivitas antifungi ekstrak etanol kulit nanas (Ananas comosus (L.) Merr) terhadap pertumbuhan Pityrosporum ovale dan Candida albicans penyebab ketombe. Uji aktivitas antifungi dilakukan dengan metode difusi cakram menggunakan kertas cakram terhadap lima konsentrasi yaitu 5%, 10%, 15%, kontrol positif ketokonazol 2% dan kontrol negatif DMSO 10%, ditanam pada media Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) dan media Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) yang sebelumnya telah ditanamkan biakan jamur uji dengan menggunakan metode swab kemudian diinkubasi pada  temperatur 37oC selama 3-5 x 24 jam. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dari tiga konsentrasi yaitu 5%, 10% dan 15% memiliki rata-rata diameter zona hambat berturut-turut terhadap Pityrosporum ovale sebesar 7,77 mm, 10,33 mm, 11,99 mm dan kontrol positif ketokonazol 2% sebesar 23 mm. Dimana, pada setiap konsentrasi terdapat perbedaan bermakna (p<0,05). Sedangkan terhadap Candida albicans sebesar 7,99 mm, 10,14 mm, 11,55 mm dan kontrol positif ketokonazol 2% sebesar 23 mm. Dimana, pada setiap konsentrasi terdapat perbedaan bermakna (p<0,05). Berdasarkan hasil penelitian ini, dapat disimpulkan bahwa ekstrak etanol kulit nanas (Ananas comosus (L.) Merr) pada konsentrasi 5%, 10% dan 15% memiliki aktivitas antifungi terhadap pertumbuhan Pityrosporum ovale dan Candida albicans penyebab ketombe.
