This study aims to determine the effect of the QS inhibitor compound thiophenone in reducing those virulence factors. This research was conducted at the Laboratory of Fisheries Science, Faculty of Marine Science and Fisheries, Udayana University, from December 2019 to March 2020. This study tested 3 different treatments with 3 repetitions for each treatment. Treatment A as control (without the addition of thiophenone), treatment B (addition of 5 ?M thiophenone), and C treatment (addition of 10 ?M thiophenone). The results showed that thiophenone compounds can inhibit the QS system of Aeromonas hydrophila. It can be seen from the significantly reduced (P<0.05) motility and caseinase enzyme activity of A. hydrophila compared to without addition of thiophenone compounds. The average diameter of the caseinase enzyme production produced in treatment A at 22 hours was 21.40±0.36 mm, in treatment B was 19.70±0.2 mm and in treatment, C was 17.87±0.05 mm. Whereas in motility, the resulting average diameter in treatment A at 22 hours was 6.57±0.61 mm, in treatment B was 5.67±0.35 mm and in treatment, C was 5.10±0.6 mm. These results indicate that the QS thiophenone inhibitor compound can reduce virulence factors, namely motility and caseinase production from pathogenic bacteria A. hydrophila. Treatment C can decrease virulence factors compared to treatment A and B.","PeriodicalId":432816,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Tropical Biodiversity and Environmental Sciences","volume":"482 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124410816","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 purpose of this research was to determine the different density information on tilapia seeds measuring 2-3 cm as an alternative to using tilapia (O. niloticus) seeds 7-9 cm in size so that they can be developed in Batur Lake. The research was conducted in January - March 2020 in the floating net cages in Trunyan Kintamani village, Bangli, Bali. The research used a completely randomized design method with three treatments and three repetitions. The Tilapia seeds used are 2-3 cm with different stocking densities, 100 ind/m3, 150 ind/m3, and 200 ind/m3. The parameters observed were SGR (Specific Growth Rate), absolute growth, SR (Survival Rate), FCR (Feed Conversion Ratio), and water quality including temperature, DO, pH, TDS. The results of this study indicated that stocking density did not have a significant effect on the growth and survival rate of tilapia seeds, because the temperature was too cold so that the tilapia seeds failed to adapt properly at the beginning of stocking and the physiological conditions of the fish were disturbed so that the fish experienced stress and went to died. Water quality parameters measured include temperature with a range value of 25.86-25.880C, pH with a range value of 9.08-9.13, DO (Dissolved oxygen) with a range value of 7.9-8 mg/L, and TDS (Dissolved solids) with a range value of 1040.25-1041.58 mg/L.","PeriodicalId":432816,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Tropical Biodiversity and Environmental Sciences","volume":"34 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132832517","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}

In this area, there are development and human activities that have an impact on the quality of the waters so that they interfere with the life of organisms such as macrozoobenthos. Macrozoobenthos can be the bioindicator that determining the condition in a water area. The decline of the macrozoobenthos community structure is an indicator of a disturbance in the ecosystem in these waters. The purpose of this research to know how community structure of macrozoobenthos and the condition of the water quality in Gilimanuk Bay. This research was conducted in June to July 2020. The research used the quantitative descriptive method, with 3 of the research stations. Based on the result of the research, it has found 45 species of macrozoobenthos that included from 5 classes, there are Gastropods, Bivalves, Crustaceans, Polychaeta and, Sipunculidea. The highest total abundance was at station 3, namely 534.33 ind/m2, station 1 is 522.00 ind/m2 and the lowest abundance is at station 2, namely 371.33 ind/m2.
