Works great Super Soybean Batan

Minister of Agriculture Suswono describe it as soy super: Varieties of soybean irradiated nuclear first named Pearl was done by researchers of the National Nuclear Energy Agency during the six years between 2004 and 2010.

"The research is following the market demands that require local soybean varieties, but large seeds such as soybean imports," said Harry Is Mulyana at the Center for Isotope and Radiation Technology Application (Patir) National Nuclear Energy Agency (Batan), Jakarta.

Harry with Arwin, Tarmizi, Masrizal, and Muchlis Adie is a soybean researchers Pearl 1 which was launched as a high yielding varieties by the Minister of Agriculture Suswono on July 22, 2010. Description soy super Pearl 1 that is based on an average weight of 23.2 grams per 100 seeds. It's bigger than the United States imported soybeans are only about 18 grams per 100 seeds.

Gamma Irradiation

Harry said, Pearl 1 is the result of gamma ray irradiation. Iradiatornya owned called Gammacell-220. Penyinarannya capacity only for 1 kilogram of soybean seeds.

This is called nuclear irradiation, ie irradiation utilizing radioisotopes to change the nature of the chemical and physical properties that emit radioactive rays. The term is different irradiation with radiation. Radiation is the emission of radioactive rays in every direction uncertain, while the irradiation is radiation itself, which is directed at a specific focus.

"From 1 kilogram of soybean seeds that were irradiated in Gammacell-220 were then planted. Soybean seeds are mutated gene. Seeds are produced and then selected to get soy in accordance with the desired, "said Harry.

Gamma ray irradiation augmented genetic diversity. The effect generated in the first generation usually physical damage. In the second generation occurs segregation or genetic diversity of selection. Then begin to be mapped to obtain the desired properties.

According to Harry, Pearl 1 is the result of gene mutations in local soybean varieties Muria. Change the desired gene can not be obtained immediately. This is what takes a relatively long time until six years to get seed pearls 1 with the desired gene.

Pearl 1, in addition to large seed, also has the properties of the leaf rust disease resistance (Phakospora pachirhyzi Syd) and resistant to leaf blight disease or brown spots (Cercospora). Pearl 1 also shoot borer resistant (Melanagromyza sojae).

"Seed Pearl 1 before release to farmers should be stable. Stable meaning is not changed again the composition of genes. Usually until the fourth generation, "said Harry.

Soybean seeds after gamma disinar cobalt (Co) 60 for about 15 minutes with a dose of 150 gray it changes the composition of genes. This is as a seed nucleus. The seed core and then planted to produce foundation seed. Results obtained more foundation seed seed basis. Basic seed obtained from the principal seed. Then, from planting the seeds of this subject is obtained which is called the seed spread.

"The seeds of this spread are then certified Center of Supervision and Certification of Seeds for consumption as the seeds ready to be planted by farmers," said Harry.

There are at least four levels of seed breeding to get a pearl to be planted by farmers. Based on the Decree of the Minister of Agriculture Suswono Number 2602/Kpts/SR.120/7/2010 about the release of Mutant Lines of Soybean Varieties 37 MBB as Excellent by Name Pearl 1, age is relatively early maturing soybean planting.

With an average stem height 46.8 inches, soy Pearl 1 can be harvested at age approximately 82 days. At age 30 days, Pearl 1 is already flowering purple.

Soybean harvest is like a pearl with other local soybean varieties that have a protein content of 37.7 percent and 13.8 percent fat content. This is very suitable for the production know with very high yield of up to 373.3 percent. Also suitable for the production of tempeh with yield of 193.3 percent. Soybean local varieties are even more preferred taste for know-tempeh instead of imported soybean.

Continue to rise

Deputy Head of R & D Results Utilization and Correctional Nuclear Science and Technology Batan Taswanda Taryn said, the results of soybean is increasing. Previously been obtained soybean varieties Muria, Tengger, Meratus, Rajabasa, and Mitani irradiated by 60 Co gamma rays as well.

"The release of the first varieties of Moria in 1987. Last generated Pearl soybean varieties that have productivity 2.4 tons and 4.1 tons per hectare, "said Taswanda.

Varieties of Moria has a productivity of 1.8 tons per hectare with an excess of leaf rust disease resistance. Tengger varieties released in 1991 with a productivity of 1.4 tons to 1.7 tons per hectare.

Variety Meratus similar Tengger. Then step on Rajabasa varieties increased productivity ranged up to 3.9 tons 2.05 tons per hectare which was released in 2004. Seeds large, leaf rust disease resistance, and tolerant of dry soil and sour.

Followed in 2008 with the release of varieties Mitani. Figures productivity reached 2 tons to 3.2 tons per hectare. This variety is resistant to leaf rust disease, resistant to pests Aphis as a vector of viral diseases, as well as having a relatively high protein content.

From this Mitani generation followed generation Pearl 1. Pearl 1 has passed the test sites in 16 regions in Indonesia. One of them in West Nusa Tenggara that has been harvested on July 29, 2010. Now is the time farmers waited for the spread of soybean seed this super grain. Consumers await tofu and tempeh local soybean varieties.

A Galaxy seizing the planet

Samsung, one of the two largest South Korean electronics powerhouses, has become a mobile phone producer to be reckoned with. From time to time, Samsung creates products that grab our attention — and our wallets. Testifying to its growing strength in the smartphone industry, the Aug. 5 edition of The Korea Times reported Samsung will open its twelfth R&D center in Bangladesh next year, focused on software development in response to surging market demand for upgraded smartphone technology.

The latest company flagship phone is the Galaxy S i19000, which was introduced during the CTIA 2010 event in the US. This particular line of smartphone has several slightly different variations of the same product. As CNet said last month, they come under different names, depending on where the product is purchased and the operating service. For example, AT&T subscribers in the US will be offered the Samsung Captivate Galaxy S, while other names include Fascinate, Vibrant and Epic.

The Galaxy S i19000 smartphone has reportedly been selling very well. According to Yoo-young Kim, managing director of Samsung Electronics Indonesia, his company sold around a half million units in one month.

www.samsung.co.id

One of the most attractive Galaxy S features is the use of Android as its operating system (OS). Many consumer may not yet be as familiar with the Android OS as they are with Symbian or BlackBerry, but this Google-made OS is steadily gaining ground. According to market research firm NPD Group, Android phones accounted for 33 percent of all smartphones sold in the US in the second quarter of this year. In comparison,  BlackBerry accounted for 28 percent and Apple OS X drew just 22 percent, despite the groundswell of consumer excitement over iPhones. In Indonesia there are a number of Android phones already on the market, including Motorola Milestone, Acer Liquid e and a variety of popular HTC smartphones.

The current Galaxy S comes equipped with Android 2.1, but can be easily upgraded to Android 2.2, aka, Froyo. When the Android 2.2 is installed, Galaxy S users will be supported by Microsoft Exchange, among other features. The Exchange support, for example, will enable users to remotely wipe out all user data if the smartphone is stolen.

Perhaps even more useful is Galaxy’s capability to set up a WiFi hotspot that can be shared with seven other devices. Samsung is working on technology, hopefully available by the end of this year, that will enable the smartphone to access a wireless broadband connection though 3G WCDMA or High-Speed Packet Access (HSPA) when a Galaxy user is operating at a location that does not have a WLAN.

Other highlights of the Galaxy S include linkage to Samsung Apps, which offers a wide range of applications additional to those already available at Android Market. One favorite application is Gramedia’s English-Indonesian dictionary.  While the range of applications may not be as broad as the products available at App Store, the number of Android applications is growing at a rapid pace.

The handset itself is impressive. It is quite thin, only 9.9 mm at its top. It has a 4 inch Super Active Matrix Organic LED (AMOLED) screen, the same as the LG BL40 Chocolate 4-inch screen. The screen is bright and easy to read outdoors.

There is also a new input method that Samsung calls Swype. With this feature, instead of tapping each individual character, the user can simply drag a fingertip over the virtual keyboard and the smartphone will predict the choice of words you wish to enter.

Galaxy users do not need to open SMS or email applications before creating messages. Messages can be swyped and sent out as an SMS or email message, or stored as a note.

The Galaxy S is driven by Samsung’s own 1 GHz processor, making it quite responsive to touch, unlike some of the earlier touchscreen phones that responded far more slowly.

There are, unfortunately, some design shortcomings. There is no hardware button for taking pictures.

Users must tap an icon on the screen to snap a photo. The casing is made of glossy plastic, including the rather flimsy battery cover. There is no flash for the camera, although it is a 5-mega-pixel. The unit does not come with a lens cover. There is no hardware keypad, however, both Samsung and Telkomsel believe that consumers are moving from the QWERTY keypad to onscreen keyboard.

Samsung is working together with Telkomsel in offering this smartphone to Indonesian consumers. The price of a Galaxy S i19000, bundled with the operator’s Simpati service, is Rp 6.499.000 (US$727.89), which includes up to 500 megabytes of data for six months.

The first day of Idul Fitri 1431 Hijri, society Toboali commotion with the discovery of skeletal bone rumored as a six-legged dragon. That said, she said, reaching hundreds of meters in length. These findings draw attention to the bones of people around Toboali.

Unclear whether the bones of the dragon, but most people who have seen the suspect was not a dragon bone, but the pope. Some bones were found at a depth of about three meters in front of the mouth of the River Nyire.

Some bones were kept in a house of one inventor in Limus Village, about 15 kilometers north Toboali through transmigration areas. Sourced from the Forums, one of the online community in Indonesia, this framework is found on the fifth day of the fasting month ago.

When found, it appears there was a kind of seine caught something that protruded above the water surface. Now, after approachable and tingling with the tip of the paddle, it was only a skeleton bones like a crescent curved position.

Then, the frame was taken with a freight boat. To frame the head, power required 15 men to lift it.

Besides the nets, the other is something that stands out the feathers and horns on the head of this framework. The feathers are fringed like feathers on the head of a horse.

Circumference of the creature's body is approximately 2 meters with a body length of about 15 meters. Viewed from a skeleton's head, leading to the shape of a whale. Only at the tail bone that still remain attached to the meat, on the other bones clean and white matt
