Egg Production and Physical Quality in Cortunix Cortunix Japonica Fed Diet Containing Piperine as Phytogenic Feed Additive

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of piperine as a phytogenic feed additive on quail performances and egg quality. The experiment used a completely randomized design with five treatments and four replications and used ten quails with one week of age in each replication. The piperine was added to the diets at concentrations of 0 (T0), 15 (T1), 30 (T2), 45 (T3), and 60 mg/kg body weight (T4) for 8 consecutive weeks. The results showed that addition of 60 mg/kg body weight (T4) of piperine significantly (P<0.05) reduced feed consumption, egg production, egg mass, income over feed cost (IOFC), and increased water consumption as compared to the other treatments. The addition of 15-60 mg piperine/kg body weight significantly (P<0.05) reduced eggshell weight and increased egg yolk color score. The conclusion of this experiment was that the addition of piperine at 15-45 mg/kg body weight could be used as phytogenic feed additive to improve performance, IOFC, haugh unit, and yolk color

Rumen Fermentation, Blood Metabolites, and Performance of Sheep Fed Tropical Browse Plants

The in vitro study was designed to evaluate total gas production, dry matter degradability (DMD), and VFA profile; while in vivo study was designed to evaluate nutrient intakes, blood metabolites, and performance of sheep fed native grass mixed with Calliandra calothyrrus (CC), Leucaena leucochepala (LL), Moringa oleifera (MO), Gliricidea sepium (GS), and Artocarpus heterophyllus (AH). The best three from the in vitro results were used to formulate diets in in vivo study. Sixteen male growing sheep (average BW 20 kg) were fed 100% native grass (NG) as control; 70% NG + 30% GS; 70% NG + 30% MO; and 70% NG + 30% AH. Nutrient consumptions, DMD, blood metabolites, and sheep performances were analyzed by using Completely Randomized Design. The in vitro results showed that the total gas production and DMD of CC and LL were the lowest (P<0.05) while the highest was found in GS, MO, and AH treatments (P<0.05). Meanwhile, the in vivo results showed that nutrient intakes (DM, CP, and CF) of GS and AH rations were the highest. The ADG, concentration of albumin, and globulin in all treatments were similar, while total serum protein, triglycerides, and glucose concentration in MO and AH rations were higher than others. Serum cholesterol concentration in MO ration was the lowest, meanwhile the concentration of IgG was the highest (P<0.05). Supplementation of 30% MO was the best choice for optimum rumen fermentation and maintaining health status of local sheep

Variasi Gen Mitokondria Cytochrome B Pada Dua Jenis Burung Kakatua Putih (Cacatua Alba Dan C. Moluccensis)

Variation in The Mitochondrial Cytochrome b Gene in The Two White Cockatoo Species (Cacatua alba and C. molucensis). DNA sequence variation in the 791-bp of mitochondrial cytocrome b gene in the two white cockatoo species (C. alba and C. moluccensis) were analyzed in this study. Two pairs of internal primers used to amplify two fragments of cytochrome b from 30 individuals cockatoo. The results show that there were genetic variations among individuals of C. alba and C. moluccensis. Twenthy eight haplotypes occured in 30 individuals studied; 14 haplotypes (Hca1-Hca14) in 16 individuals of C. alba, and 14 haplotypes (Hcm1-Hcm14)in 14 individuals of C. moluccensis. Hca5 was dominant and owned by 3individuals (H37, KBS62, 28, BBP88). Within C. alba there were 18 variable sites, 0.00701 of nucleotide diversity (Pi), 0.975 ± 0.035 of haplotype diversity (Hd), and 0.005 ± 0.002 of mean genetic distance. Whitin C. moluccensis there were 18 variable sites, 0.00830 of Pi, and 0.9999± 0.028 of Hd, and 0,010 ± 0.002 (0.001-0.010) mean genetic distance. Divergence between C. alba and C. moluccensis was 0.064 ± 0.088 %. Neigbor-joining (NJ) analysis showed two main clusters consisted of : C. alba and C. moluccensis separately, and indicated that althoughthere were some variations in the DNA sequences, but the individuals within a species remain clustered in the same cluster

Phylogenetic Relationships Within Cockatoos (Aves: Psittaciformes) Based on DNA Sequences of the Seventh Intron of Nuclear ?-Fibrinogen Gene

Hubungan Kekerabatan Kakatua (Aves: Psittaciformes) Berdasarkan Sekuen DNA dariIntron ke Tujuh dari Gen ?--fibrinogen. Hubungan kekerabatan diantara burung kakatuamasih menjadi perdebatan, khususnya menyangkut posisi dari Nymphycus hollandicus. Intronpada gen ?-fibrinogen telah diketahui berguna untuk mempelajari filogeni dari beberapakelompok burung, oleh karena itu penelitian ini menggunakan sekuen DNA dari intron ketujuhpada gen ini (?-fibint7) untuk mengkonstruksi filogeni dari enam genus (Cacatua,Callocephalon, Eolophus, Calyptorhynchus, Probosciger, dan Nymphicus) yang terdapat didunia berdasarkan analisis neighbor-joining (NJ) and maximum-parsimony (MP). Ditemukanbeberapa indel (insersi-delesi) pada sekuen DNA dari â-fibint7 kakatua, sehingga panjangsekuen DNA bervariasi diantara taxa-taxa yang diteliti. Tidak terjadi saturasi antara substitusi transisi dengan transversi, dan juga antara transversi dengan jarak genetik. Tribe Cacatuiniyang terdiri dari tiga genus Cacatua, Callocephalon, dan Eolophus bersifat monophyletic.Meskipun hubungan diantara spesies dari genus Cacatua tidak terungkap dengan jelas, tetapiC. alba, C. galerita, C. goffini, C. sanguinea, C. moluccensis dan C. sulphurea berada didalam satu group, dan C. leadbeateri relatif terpisah dari species-species congeneric lainnya.Callocephalon secara filogenetik terpisah jauh dari genus-genus lainnya pada tribe Cacatuini.Tribe Calyptorhyncini yang terdiri dari Probosciger dan Calyptorhynchus adalah paraphyletic.Calyptorhynchus tampak monophyletic. Nymphicus (tribe Calopsittacini) menjadi cladebasal dari kakatua

Yuridical Aspect Prevention of "Illegal Fishing" Action in International Law and Implementation in Indonesia

Fisheries crime, known as Illegal Fishing, is not only carried out by Foreign Fish Ships (KIA) but also by fishermen or Indonesian fishing vessels (KII). According to IPOA, illegal fishing does not only take fish without permits, but also includes unreported fishing, and unregulated fishing; As an archipelago country that has an interest in the sea, Indonesia nationally adopted UNCLOS III in 1982, with its ratification through Law No. 17 of 1985. From the above matter, the problem that will be examined is how is the regulation on the prevention of ”Illegal Fishing” actions in international law and national law, and how is law enforcement against ”Illegal Fishing” actions in Indonesia. In this study the author uses a type of normative juridical legal research, the data sources used will be more secondary data, although it is not possible to use primary data. From the results of the study, it can be concluded that, Indonesia was given the authority to capture foreign fishing vessels that committed crimes in the territory of the Republic of Indonesia, namely Article 73 UNCLOS 1982 which states that if foreign ships do not comply with coastal state legislation in terms of fishery resource conservation, the state the beach can catch the ship. However, the captured vessel and crew must be immediately released with a reasonable bond given to the coastal country. The punishment for the foreign vessel is also not allowed in the form of corporal punishment (prison). This is because in the EEZ, the coastal state only has sovereign rights and not sovereignty &nbsp
