Abstract

Seed viability is the ability of seed to germinate which is demonstrated by a variety of physiological or biochemical phenomena. Paper media can be used for testing seed viability. This study aimed to determine the most effective method of seed germination utilizing paper media for the viability of sesame seeds. The research was conducted at the Seed Laboratory of the Sweetener and Fiber Crops Research Institute, Malang in March – May 2020. The research method used a two-factor factorial Completely Randomized Design. The first factor was the sesame seed variety which consisted of SBR 1 and Winas 1. The second factor was the seed germination method which consisted of a test on top of paper, a test on rolled top papers, a test between of papers and a test between folded paper. Each treatment was replicated four times, resulting 32 experimental units. Sesame seed viability was significantly affected by the manner of seed germination using paper media, according to the findings. In comparison to other treatments, sesame seeds of the Winas 1 variety exhibited the highest percentages of simultaneous growth, germination, vigor index, normal seedling dry weight, hypocotyl length, and radicle length when tested on rolled top paper

Abstract

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a staple food for most of world population and has a good prospect considering the great potential of land to be planted with this plant species which contains carbohydrate of 70% and protein of 3%. The development of this commodity was started from agricultural extensification and production increase through the implementation of cropping system. This study was aimed to provide information on suitable cropping system for wheat cultivation and to examine the effect of cropping system on the increase in wheat production in medium land of Palopo City. This study was conducted in farmer land in Kambo Village, Mungkajang Subdistrict of Palopo City, South Sulawesi at elevation of ± 600 m asl from June until September 2017. This research uses two factor factorial in randomized block design. The first factor consisted of two cropping systems, namely line up system (S1) and Hazton system (S2). While, the second factor included two varieties, namely Guri 4 variety (V1) and Guri 6 variety (V2). Study result for vegetative phase showed that the best plant height was obtained using line up cropping system in Guri 4 variety (S1V1) with average of 73.91 cm. Implementation of Hazton cropping system in Guri 4 variety (S2V1) resulted in the best flag leaf area with average of 40.23 cm2. Hazton cropping system implementation in Guri 6 variety (V2S2) indicated the best green color with average value of 11.00 unit. Furthermore, application of line up cropping system (S1) produced the best total tiller number with average of 18.22 tillers. Therefore, it is concluded that the use of Hazton cropping system was able to increase the wheat production and Guri 4 Variety is expected to adapt to grow in the medium land of Palopo City

Abstract

This study was aimed to determine the viability rate of rosella seed, to obtain the best result of seed testing for enhancing rosella seed viability, to find the best seed invigoration method for enhancing rosella seed viability, to obtain staining pattern through tetrazolium test of rosella seed, and to determine viability and vigor of rosella seed to be further used as estimation indicator for rosella plant growth in the field. The study was conducted in the Seed Laboratory, Indonesian Sweetener and Fiber Crops Research Institute (ISFCRI), Malang, East Java during July - August 2018. The material used included accessions of rosella seed (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) ACC. 1148 from the year 2015 and collection of ISFCRI, 100 ml of Tetrazolium solution (40 ml KH2PO4, 60 ml Na2HPO4 and 1 gr of Tetrazolium powder). This research applied Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consisted of seed treatments of control (no immersion/0 hour), immersion for 5 hours, immersion for 10 hours, and scarification, each with 4 replications. Result of this study showed that the use of tetrazolium salt was found to be better in enhancing the viability of rosella seeds. Viable seeds was found to have bright red embryonic axis and bright red cotyledon. Testing using paper media on several seed invigoration treatments resulted in significantly different effect on parameters of vigor index, germination capacity, and dry weight of normal seedling. The best parameter of germination capacity and dry weight of normal seedling was obtained by treatment immersed in water at temperature of 27°C for 10 hours

Abstract

The program of cotton variety improvement is carried out by increasing the productivity and quality of fiber in order to rise the competitiveness of cotton farming through the production of fiber quality that is in accordance with the demand of export-oriented national textile industry. This study aimed to determine the performance of the Kanesia-10 cotton phenotype cultivated using liquid organic fertilizer in the lowlands and obtain the best concentration of liquid organic fertilizer in improving Kanesia 10 cotton performance. This research was conducted in Experimental Farm of the Faculty of Agriculture of the University of Cokroaminoto Palopo from August to November 2018. The genetic material used was Kanesia 10 cotton variety for its fiber content of 27.2%, production of 2.457,2 kg cotton seed per hectare and fiber uniformity of 83,3-84,6%. This study used a randomized block design consisting of five treatments and four times. The treatment used was control (P0), 50 ml/L POC of gamal leaves (P1), and 100 ml/L of gamal leaves (P2) 150 ml/L POC of gamal leaves (P3), and 200 ml/L POC of gamal leaves (P4), so that there were 20 experimental units. The use of liquid organic fertilizer produces heterogeneous phenotypic performance for the parameters of the number of fruits per plot with a diversity coefficient value reaching 32.93%. The treatment of liquid organic fertilizer with a concentration of 50 ml / L resulted in the performance of plant height, number of leaves, number of fruits per plot, and the best fruit weight per plot with a mean of 64.13 cm, 57.75 strands, 43.00 fruits and 7.60 g, respectively
