Tidal Type Determination on Manokwari Shipping Chanel by Using Admiralty Method
2018
Komponen pasang surut perairan sangat penting bagi kepentingan pelabuhan, transportasi laut, industri perikanan, rekayasa pantai dan mitigasi kawasan pesisir. Ketinggian pasang surut yang terbentuk merupakan superposisi dari amplitudo komponen pasang surut akibat gaya tarik gravitasi matahari, bulan dan bumi terhadap massa air lautan. Komponen pasang surut yaitu K1, O1, P1, S2, M2, K2, M4, MS4. Penelitian ini bertujuan menentukan komponen dan tipe pasang surut pada alur pelayaran Manokwari-Papua Barat menggunakan metode admiralty. Bilangan Formzahl yang diperoleh yaitu 0.732 yang berarti bahwa perairan memiliki pasang surut Campuran Condong ke Harian Ganda (mixed tide prevailing semidiurna…
Sea Water Quality Assessment Based on Tidal Condition in Sawaibu Bay Manokwari
2018
Pasar Sanggeng yang terletak di pesisir Teluk Doreri Kota Manokwari, menjadi salah satu pusat perdagangan yang melayani kebutuhan masyarakat. Secara umum dagangan di Pasar Sanggeng terdiri dari kebutuhan rumah tangga, jual beli sayur dan tempat penjualan ikan. Pasar tersebut merupakan jantung kota yang setiap hari dipenuhi masyarakat untuk berbelanja. Akibat adanya aktivitas yang tinggi tersebut menyebabkan pembungan sampah-sampah organik tidak terawasi atau terkontrol dengan baik. Sampah- sampah tersebut seperti sisa-sisa makanan, sayuran, buah-buahan dan sisa-sisa buangan ikan mentah dari tempat penjualan ikan. Kondisi ini berlangsung secara terus menerus setiap hari sehingga dapat menyeb…
A new method to simulate the hydrological state of soil under natural conditions
2009
As micro, macro e mesofaunas no solo respondem frequentemente a variacao das condicoes ambientais, o que resulta em alteracoes na abundância e na estrutura da comunidade. Os efeitos das alteracoes nos parâmetros do solo sao normalmente determinados com amostras recolhidas no campo e trazidas ao laboratorio, ou seja, onde as condicoes ambientais naturais podem nao ser aplicaveis. Criamos um metodo (STAFD - tubos de amostra de solo para inundacoes e secas artificiais), que simula o estado hidrologico do solo in situ com nucleos implantados. As amostras de controle foram comparadas com amostras de tratamentos em que foram simuladas inundacoes de 15, 30, 60 e 90 dias e secas de 60, 90 e 120 dia…
Unravelling the modus operandi of phytosiderophores during zinc uptake in rice: the importance of geochemical gradients and accurate stability consta…
2020
Abstract Micronutrient deficiencies threaten global food production. Attempts to biofortify crops rely on a clear understanding of micronutrient uptake processes. Zinc deficiency in rice is a serious problem. One of the pathways proposed for the transfer of zinc from soils into rice plants involves deoxymugineic acid (DMA), a phytosiderophore. The idea that phytosiderophores play a wider role in nutrition of Poaceae beyond iron is well established. However, key mechanistic details of the DMA-assisted zinc uptake pathway in rice remain uncertain. In particular, questions surround the form in which zinc from DMA is taken up [i.e. as free aqueous Zn(II) or as Zn(II)–DMA complexes] and the role…
Flux of protons released by wild type and ferritin over-expressor tobacco plants : effect of phosphorus and iron nutrition
2003
Abstract Tobacco ( Nicotiana tabacum ) plants over-expressing the iron storage protein ferritin, either in the cytoplasm or in the plastids, were grown under various P and Fe conditions. The crossed effects of both the genotypes and the environmental conditions on iron and chlorophyll concentrations in leaves, ferric reductase (EC 1.6.99.13) and plasmalemma H + -ATPase (EC 3.6.3.6) activities in roots, and fluxes of H + released by roots were determined. The increase in leaf Fe concentration observed in plants over-expressing ferritin was accompanied by an increase in root ferric reductase and H + -ATPase activities. Iron deficient conditions induced a decrease in Fe and chlorophyll concent…
Dynamic of the genetic structure of bacterial and fungal communities at different developmental stages of Medicago truncatula Gaertn. cv. Jemalong li…
2006
International audience; The genetic structure of bacterial and fungal communities was characterized in the rhizosphere of Medicago truncatula Gaertn. cv. Jemalong line J5 at five developmental stages (three vegetative and two reproductive stages), and in three compartments (bulk soil, rhizosphere soil and root tissues). The genetic structure of microbial communities was determined by cultivation-independent methods using directly extracted DNA that was characterized by automated ribosomal intergenic spacer analysis (ARISA). Principal component analyses (PCA) indicate that, for all developmental stages, the genetic structure of microbial communities differed significantly by compartment, wit…
Humoral responses during wound healing in Holothuria tubulosa (Gmelin, 1788)
2021
Abstract Wounds in living organisms trigger tissue-repair mechanisms. The sea cucumber (Holoturia tubulosa) is an excellent model species for achieving a better understanding of the humoral and cellular aspects involved in such healing processes. Consequently, this study assesses data on its morphometric, physiological and humoral responses 1, 2, 6, 24 and 48h after wound induction. In particular, morphometric data on the weight, width, length and coelomic-fluid volume of the species were estimated at different times during our experiments. In addition, the humoral aspects related to the enzymatic activity of esterase, alkaline phosphatase and peroxidase, as well as the cytotoxic activity o…
Phytophthora Root and Collar Rot of Paulownia, a New Disease for Europe
2021
Paulownia species are fast growing trees native to China, which are being grown in managed plantings in several European countries for the production of wood and biomasses. In 2018, wilting, stunting, leaf yellowing, and collapse, as a consequence of root and crown rot, were observed in around 40% of trees of a 2-year-old planting of Paulownia elongata × P. fortunei in Calabria (Southern Italy). Two species of Phytophthora were consistently recovered from roots, basal stem bark, and rhizosphere soil of symptomatic trees and were identified as Ph. nicotianae and Ph. palmivora on the basis of both morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analysis of rDNA ITS sequences. Koch’s postulates…
Localized versus systemic effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on defence responses to Phytophthora infection in tomato plants
2002
Development of biological control for plant diseases is accepted as a durable and environmentally friendly alternative for agrochemicals. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), which form symbiotic associations with root systems of most agricultural, horticultural and hardwood crop species, have been suggested as widespread potential bioprotective agents. In the present study the ability of two AMF (Glomus mosseae and Glomus intraradices) to induce local or systemic resistance to Phytophthora parasitica in tomato roots have been compared using a split root experimental system. Glomus mosseae was effective in reducing disease symptoms produced by P. parasitica infection, and evidence points to …
Scirpetum radicantis Hejný in Hejný et Husák 1978 em. Zahlh. 1979, a plant association new to Poland
2011
The paper presents a rush community new to Poland - <em>Scirpetum radicantis </em>Hejny in Hejny et Husak 1978 em. Zahlh. 1979, belonging to the <em>Phragmition </em>alliance. It was discovered in fishponds near Olesno in Silesia (SW Poland). The floristic composition and the ecological requirements of this association are presented in the paper. <em>Scirpetum radicantis </em>is considered to be a very rare and endangered plant community in Europe.
