One of the main ingredients of herbal medicine is mint leaves because they contain tannin and flavonoid secondary metabolites. However, the generative mint plant is very slow and needs vegetative cuttings propagation. This study aims to examine the effect of auxin-type growth regulators and the composition of the growing media on the growth and yield of mint plant cuttings. This study used a complete randomized block design with two factors. The first factor was the auxin growth regulator with four levels: without growth regulator, IBA 500 ppm, IAA 500 ppm, NAA 500 ppm. The second factor was the composition of the planting medium with three levels, namely soil, husk charcoal, and goat manure 3:3:1; 3:2:2, and 3:1:3. Three repetitions were carried out. Auxin affects the number and area of leaves. Applying 500 ppm NAA encouraged the highest leaf growth, with the number of leaves at 163.38. Growth regulator NAA 500 ppm increased the number of leaves and leaf area of mint plants, i.e., by 0.01% and 1.16% compared to the control. The growing media composition affected the crown fresh weight, root biomass, and crown root ratio. The media composition of 3:3:1 produced a crown fresh weight of 41.07 g, and the media composition 3:3:3 produced the highest biomass of 5.97 g. The media composition 3:1:3 showed the highest root crown ratio, 2.69%. Auxin and the composition of the growing media synergistically promote the growth and yield of mint cuttings.","PeriodicalId":107826,"journal":{"name":"Agrotechnology Research Journal","volume":"113 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139367120","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to field constraints in Mentik Susu rice cultivation, farmers switched to better varieties with higher yields. Farmers switch to superior types with high yields due to high plant posture, long harvest life, and low yields. Rice plants usually have a protein content of 4-5% per gram while without given radiation. It will be expected that after receiving gamma rays, the protein content in mutant plants will increase up to 7-8% per gram. The aim of this research was to evaluate the productivity and protein content of rice grain of 35 mutant strains of rices that could be developed into new varieties. The research took place at the Tegalgondo Rice Seed Garden Agricultural Land between June to October 2020. This research used Randomized Complete Block Design method with a single factor. Each treatment was repeated three times. The data obtained was analyzed with analysis of variance and followed with Duncan’s Multiple Range Test at a 5% level if any significant influences. The results of this research showed productivity of 35 Mentik Susu rice lines ranged from 4.28 to 6.69 ha-1, with either a high protein content ranging from 5-8% per gram and intermediate high yield potential strains G63T11-B6-T27(1), G15T5-14-B5-T60, G15T5-14-B5-T46, G11T22-19-B1-T48, G15T5-14-B3-T36, M-MS2-G15T3-2-5 -T27, M-MS2-G18T7-4-12-T13, M-MS2-G18T7-4-9-T12.

One of the alternative control is with application of husk ash that has a high silica content. This study examined husk ash to know the effect of husk ash to population and proportion of bean flies attacks. This research conducted in Pengkok Village, Kedawung, Sragen from June - September 2019. The method used was field experiment with a Randomized Completely Block Design (RCBD) with one factor, namely the dose of husk ash five levels (0 tons ha-1, 1.25 tons ha-1, 2.5 tons ha-1, 3.75 tons ha-1, and 5 tons ha-1) and five replications. The results showed that the application of husk ash not affected significantly on the adults of the bean fly population, but affected significantly the percentage of attacks only in the cotyledons. The application of rice husk ash can reduce the percentage of attack on the cotyledons by 2.11-3.04% than without husk ash application. The number of plant deaths apparently followed the populations of bean flies. Furthermore, the height of soybean with application looked taller than without application.","PeriodicalId":107826,"journal":{"name":"Agrotechnology Research Journal","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139366664","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The seeds of 3 varieties of wheat: Dewata, Basribey and G-21 were treated with gamma irradiation with a dose 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, and 600 Gy. Each treatment was repeated three times. The highest percentage of germination and vigor index due to the combination of treatment of wheat varieties with gamma rays was the combination of Dewata and 200 Gy which was significantly different from Basribey and G-21. Gamma irradiation treatment of 100 Gy on the three mutant wheat varieties showed differences in plant height, namely the G-21 variety, followed by Dewata and Basribey. The number of productive tillers showed significant variation between the gamma ray treatments for each mutant wheat genotype and the most productive tillers were at a gamma ray dose of 100 Gy for all wheat genotypes. The 100 Gy gamma ray treatment caused the number of seeds of the Dewata variety to be much higher than that of Basribey and G-21.
