Kepel (Stelechocarpus burahol [Bl] Hook F. & Th.) merupakan buah asli Indonesia berbiji banyak dengan ukuran yang besar. Bagian buah yang dapat dikonsumsi hanya 49% dengan bagian lain berupa biji. Perbanyakan kepel secara konvensional masih sulit dilakukan dengan hasil yang rendah. Kultur endosperma secara in vitro adalah metode perbanyakan yang tepat untuk memperoleh tanaman triploid dengan buah tanpa biji. Sterilisasi merupakan tahap awal yang menjadi kunci keberhasilan kultur in vitro. Hingga kini belum dilaporkan metode sterilisasi endosperma kepel secara in vitro yang tepat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memperoleh metode sterilisasi eksplan yang tepat untuk kultur endosperma kepel. Penelitian ini telah dilaksanakan pada bulan September 2018 – Januari 2019 di Laboratorium Kultur In Vitro, Fakultas Pertanian, Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode eksperimen disusun dalam Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) faktor tunggal dengan perlakuan berbagai konsentrasi bahan sterilan yang terbagi 8 aras: H2O2 (3%10’, 3%15’, 5%10’, 5%15’) NaOCl (5%5’, 5%10’, 10%5’, 10%10’) dengan 3 kali ulangan dan 3 sempel. Parameter yang diamati yaitu: persentase kontaminasi, browning, hidup, vitrifikasi, jenis kontaminasi, waktu kontaminasi dan waktu browning. Hasil penelitian diperoleh bahwa perlakuan NaOCl 10% selama 10 menit merupakan metode sterilisasi paling tepat dengan presentase ekplan hidup 44,44%, persentase eksplan vitrifikasi 66,66%, serta tidak terjadi kontaminasi dan browning
Bemisia tabaci is an agricultural pest that interferes plant growth, as well as being an insect vector of various types of viruses, one of which is the geminivirus group. B. tabaci is called Cryptic Species Complex due to their similar morphology but has different genetic profiles. Climate change and increased global trading of agricultural products could increase B. tabaci population and lead to the emergence of genetic disparity. This study aims to obtain the latest information on the population homogeneity of B. tabaci in four districts of the Yogyakarta and potential differences on their nucleotide arrangements. Molecular identification was performed using PCR and primers C1-J-2198/L2-N-3914 on B. tabaci. B. tabaci COI gene sequences were then compared using a phylogenetic analysis and similarities of nucleotide bases were determined. Results showed that the populations of B. tabaci in Yogyakarta were still homogeneous showed by biotypes similarity, namely the non-B biotype. B. tabaci from Yogyakarta have nucleotide base similarity of 100% with B. tabaci from Singapore (AY686095) and Thailand (AY686092) and 99.56% with species from Bangladesh (AJ748388). Results also showed no differences in the composition of both nucleotide bases and amino acids from the four districts of B. tabaci sampling location. The homogeneous population of B. tabaci and the high incidence of yellowing disease caused by Begomovirus in chili pepper plants in the Special Region of Yogyakarta prove that it is necessary to review the current methods of controlling B. tabaci pests.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
