SOMACLONAL VARIATION

-

 

In addition to the many advantages of planting material from tissue culture, there is also a disadvantage of tissue culture propagation, namely the presence of somaclonal variation. Somaclonal variation is the variation that appears during in-vitro culture, both genetic and epigenetic. Somaclonal variation is a genetic change that is not caused by gene segregation or recombination, as is usually the case due to crossing processes. Improving plant properties in vitro can be done by inducing somaclonal diversity. Induction of somaclonal diversity from tissue culture provides new opportunities for improving plant traits that are useful in supporting plant breeding programs. Somaclonal diversity is obtained through an undifferentiated growth phase. A number of mutants have been reported to be obtained from callus and free cell phases. Somaclonal diversity induction technique is simpler when compared to DNA recombination techniques and produces large amounts of genetic diversity.

Somaclonal variations can be grouped into heritable variations, which are genetically controlled, and non-heritable variations, which are epigenetically controlled. Genetically controlled somaclonal diversity is usually stable and can be passed on sexually to the next generation. On the other hand, epigenetic diversity will usually be lost if it is passed on sexually. Genetically stable somaclonal variations can be formed due to point mutations, changes in chromosome number and structure, DNA recombination, DNA sequence methylation, deletions and transpositions in the nuclear, mitochondrial and chloroplast genomes. These genetic changes can lead to stable changes, which are passed on sexually in the next generation. Mutations caused by this somaclonal variation can be used to create diversity which can then be selected to obtain the desired cultivar.

PERAN BIOPESTISIDA DALAM SISTEM PERTANIAN BERKELANJUTAN

-
BIOPESTISIDA SEBAGAI SOLUSI KEBERLANJUTAN PERTANIAN DI INDONESIA Pertanian di Indonesia saat ini memiliki perkembangan yang cukup pesat. Pada tahun 2022, sektor pertanian tumbuh sebesar 1,37% dan berkontribusi sebesar 12,98% terhadap PDB nasional (BPS, 2022). Perkembangan pertanian di Indonesia bukan tidak ada halangan. Sektor pertanian masih terdapat tantangan berupa rendahnya produktivitas karena serangan hama dan penyakit, pengetahuan petani mengenai penggunaan pestisida yang masih rendah dan rendahnya daya saing produk di pasar global. Pemerintah Indonesia telah mendorong petani untuk menggunakan sistem pertanian berkelanjutan dengan menerapkan pertanian organik. Prinsip sistem budidaya tersebut berbasis pengendalian hama dan penyakit , penggunaan pupuk kompos, pengelolaan sumberdaya yang terpadu, dan memperhatikan kelestarian lingkungan . Sistem pertanian organik juga bertujuan agar pembangunan sektor pertanian dapat layak secara ekonomi, sosial, dan berkelanjutan pada masa

Source :  https://www.tokopertanian99.com/2019/08/mengenal-lebih-dalam-metode-perbanyakan.html Plant biotechnology is the cultivation of a plant tissue in vitro which is the same as conventional plant cultivation. Tissue culture is usually carried out by planting explants in the form of plant parts, cell tissue, sub-cellular in vitro with a specific purpose. In vitro plant propagation or tissue culture is a technique for isolating plant parts such as protoplasm, cells, tissues and organs grown under aseptic conditions, so that these parts can multiply and regenerate into whole plants again. The main principle of tissue culture technique is plant propagation using vegetative parts of plants on artificial media which is carried out in a sterile place. Propagation in vitro or tissue culture has advantages and disadvantages. Some of the advantages of in vitro plant propagation, among others:   1.        Factor multiplication   2.        Not depending on the season   3.        Plant
