Pengaruh Kepemimpinan Dan K3 Terhadap Kinerja Karyawan Bagian Teknik PT. Pln (Persero) Upj-semarang

Engineering division of PT. PLN (Persero) UPJ of Central Semarang is a company with responsibility towards public services in the field of electricity. The achievement of good public services is determined by employees' abilities to do their jobs. Currently, Engineering division of PT. PLN (Persero) UPJ of Central Semarang is facing some problems related to expected performance targets which have not been achieved. It is proven by the level of transformer damage which breaks the tolerance limit. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to determine the effect of Kepemimpinan, Kesehatan dan Keselamatan Kerja (K3) – Leadership, Health and Safety – on Employee Performance of Engineering division of PT. PLN (Persero) UPJ of Central Semarang. This study is an explanatory research. The population in this study were the employees of Engineering division of PT. PLN (Persero) UPJ of Central Semarang consisting of 50 respondents as the samples. The sampling technique used was census. The results show that the variables of leadership and K3 separately or together affect the performances of employees. Based on assessment results from each employee, employee performance as an individual is in a very good category. Meanwhile, based on assessment results from leaders, the employee performance as a group level or an engineering division performance has not been able to achieve expected performance targets. Thus, there are some differences of employee performance assessment results from the leaders and from the individual. Individual performance does not automatically create a group or division performance. Therefore, leaders' roles are needed to improve employees' understanding on performance standards which are expected by the company. Leadership and K3 program variables are the variables which can affect the employee performance, so that the roles of leaders and K3 program need to be continuously developed

Sensitivity of Pigment Content of Banana and Orchid Tissue Culture Exposed to Extremely Low Frequency Electromagnetic Fiel

Natural exposure of extremely low frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) occurs in the environment and acts as one of the abiotic factors that affect the growth and development of organisms. This study was conducted to determine the effect of ELF-EMF on the tissue cultured banana and slipper orchid chlorophyll content as one of the indicators in measuring plant photosynthetic capacity. Four days old banana (Musa sp. cv. Berangan) corm and seven days old slipper orchid (Paphiopedilum rothschildianum) cultures were exposed to 6 and 12 mT ELF-EMF generated by controllable ELF-EMF built up machine for 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 hours. After exposure, the banana and orchid cultures were incubated at 25° C for 8 and 16 weeks, respectively. The results showed that the ELF-EMF exposure had different effects on banana and slipper orchid cultures though both plant species belong to monocotyledon. The highest increase in chlorophyll content on banana was resulted by the high intensity and long duration of ELF-EMF exposure (12 mT for 4 hours), whereas on slipper orchid the modest and short duration of ELF-EMF exposure produced the most excessive chlorophyll content. Different ELF-EMF exposures (12 mT for 4 hours and 6 mT for 30 minutes) had potential to be applied on each plant to improve in vitro plant (banana and slipper orchid, respectively) growth. The increased chlorophyll and carotene/xanthophyll content on banana indicated that the banana was more tolerant to ELF-EMF exposure compared to slipper orchid

Identifikasi Molekuler dan Analisis Kekerabatan Aksesi Nenas Menggunakan Marka RAPD Menunjang Perakitan Varietas Unggul Baru

(Molecular Identification and Relationships Among Several Pineapple Accessions Using RAPD Marker to Support the Assembling New Varieties)Produksi dan produktivitas nenas dapat ditingkatkan antara lain melalui penggunaan varietas unggul. Dalam perakitan varietas, dibutuhkan informasi hubungan kekerabatan antartetuanya agar diperoleh efek heterosis yang tinggi melalui kegiatan identifikasi secara molekuler. Penelitian bertujuan (1) mengetahui tingkat polimorfisme primer yang digunakan,(2) mengidentifikasi fragmen DNA spesifik yang membedakan individu atau kelompok individu nenas, dan (3) mengetahui hubungan kekerabatan antarspesies dan aksesi nenas. Penelitian dilaksanakan mulai bulan Mei–Desember 2014 di Laboratorium Uji Mutu Benih dan Molekuler Balai Penelitian Tanaman Buah Tropika. Sampel yang digunakan sebanyak 19 aksesi dari empat spesies nenas (Ananas comosus, A. bracteatus, A. lucidus, dan A. nanus). Sebanyak 20 marka rapid amplified polymorphism DNA (RAPD) digunakan dalam analisis. Data diskor secara biner kemudian dianalisis menggunakan program NTSYSpc 2,1x. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa polimorfisme 20 primer yang diuji berkisar 33–100% dengan rata-rata 87%. Primer dengan tingkat polimorfisme 100%, yaitu RAPD3, OPA13, OPAV3, OPC12, OPC16, dan OPY15. Kelompok Cayenne dicirikan oleh marka RAPD1 ukuran1.000 base-pair (bp) dan OPAV3 700 bp. Kelompok Queen dapat diidentifikasikan oleh marka RAPD3 ukuran 700 bp, kelompok Spanish dengan marka RAPD2 dan RAPD3 ukuran 1.500 bp. Analisis kluster menunjukkan bahwa 19 aksesi yang diuji terpisah menjadi enam kelompok pada koefisien kesamaan genetik 0,75, yaitu kelompok Queen, Cayenne, Spanish, A. bracteatus, A. lucidus, dan A. nanus. Aksesi yang diuji mempunyai keragaman genetik yang luas dengan koefisien kesamaan genetik berkisar 0,41–0,85. Aksesi yang mempunyai kesamaan genetik tertinggi, yaitu antara N-73 dengan BB (0,85) dan terkecil, yaitu antara N-94 (A. nanus) dengan N-18 (Green Spanish) sebesar 0,41. Implikasi hasil penelitian adalah aksesi yang mempunyai kesamaan genetik tinggi salah satunya dapat dieliminasi untuk efisiensi dalam pengelolaan plasma nutfah, sedangkan aksesi-aksesi yang memiliki kesamaan genetik kecil, baik digunakan sebagai tetua persilangan agar diperoleh variabilitas genetik yang luas dan efek heterosis yang tinggi.KeywordsAnanas spp.; Identifikasi; Karakterisasi; Kekerabatan genetik; Molekuler
