Post-invasion selection acts on standing genetic variation despite a severe founding bottleneck.

Invasive populations often have lower genetic diversity relative to the native-range populations from which they derive. Despite this, many biological invaders succeed in their new environments, in part due to rapid adaptation. Therefore, the role of genetic bottlenecks in constraining the adaptation of invaders is debated.

Reproductive Potential and Population Parameters of (Diptera: Stratiomyidae) Reared on Tofu Dreg.

<b>Background and Objectives:</b> Black Soldier Fly (BSF), <i>Hermetia illucens</i> (Diptera: Stratiomyidae) has long been studied primarily in terms of their important role in organic waste management. This species has a special ability to digest a variety of organic matter, from vegetable waste, food waste, decaying animal tissues to livestock manure and then convert to nutritional biomass for animal feed. The different types of feed during the larval period will affect the life history of black soldier fly.

(Coleoptera: Curculionoidea): Activity on Oil Palm Flower in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia.

<b>Background and Objective:</b> <i>Elaeidobius kamerunicus </i>Faust (Coleoptera: Curculionoidea) is a weevil pollinator oil palm flower, <i>Elaeis guineensis</i> Jacq. (Arecales: Arecaceae) Jacq. Male and female inflorescences attracted the weevil, male inflorescences appeared to provides nectar and pollen but female inflorescences seemed provides the weevils with nectar.

Ovitrap surveillance of dengue vector mosquitoes in Bandung City, West Java Province, Indonesia.

Larval surveillance is the central approach for monitoring dengue vector populations in Indonesia. However, traditional larval indices are ineffective for measuring mosquito population dynamics and predicting the dengue transmission risk. We conducted a 14-month ovitrap surveillance.

Ovitrap Preference in the Black Soldier Fly, (L.) (Diptera: Stratiomyidae).

<b>Background and Objective:</b> The adult female of the Black Soldier Fly (BSF) usually performs oviposition near decaying organic matter in cracks found in dry areas. In mass-rearing facilities or on a laboratory scale, females usually lay eggs on the provided ovitrap which is made of various types of materials. This study was aimed to observe the female preferential behaviour for ovitrap types during the oviposition period.

Propolis Can Improve Caudal Fin Regeneration in Zebrafish () Induced by The Combined Administration of Alloxan and Glucose.

Hyperglycemia, a primary symptom in diabetes mellitus, is associated with difficulties in wound healing and regeneration. This condition is due to the length of the inflammatory phase and free radicals. Furthermore, there is evidence that molecular pathogenesis is involved in impaired wound healing in diabetics.

Spatial and temporal analysis of hospitalized dengue patients in Bandung: demographics and risk.

Background: Bandung, the fourth largest city in Indonesia and capital of West Java province, has been considered a major endemic area of dengue, and studies show that the incidence in this city could increase and spread rapidly. At the same time, estimation of incidence could be inaccurate due to a lack of reliable surveillance systems. To provide strategic information for the dengue control program in the face of limited capacity, this study used spatial pattern analysis of a possible outbreak of dengue cases, through the Geographic Information System (GIS).

Production of propolis and honey from cultivated in Modular Hives.

Propolis and honey produced by stingless bees are regarded as high economic value products due to their bioactive components, which are significantly influenced by conditions at the cultivation location. This study investigated the effect of cultivation location on the amount and quality of propolis and honey produced by cultivated in Modular  Hives. Fifteen bee colonies were cultivated for at least three months in coffee plantations at two different locations, namely Cibodas and Cileunyi Wetan, Indonesia.

Efficiency of local Indonesia honey bees (Apis cerana L.) and stingless bee (Trigona iridipennis) on tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) pollination.

Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is considered as one of major agricultural commodity of Indonesia farming. However, monthly production is unstable due to lack of pollination services.
