TL;DR: In this article, small-scale spatial association of the distribution for 55 abundant tree species with two environmental factors (humus depth and surface microtopography) was examined in two 1-ha plots of a heath (kerangas) forest in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia.
Abstract: Small-scale spatial association of the distribution for 55 abundant tree species with two environmental factors (humus depth and surface microtopography) was examined in two 1-ha plots of a heath (kerangas) forest in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. More than 80% of the 55 species showed a significant habitat preference in humus depth and/or relative elevation in at least one plot. In particular, ten species occurring in both plots showed a consistent significant preference for humus depth or relative elevation in the two plots. Using randomization tests, however, only five species significantly associated with humus depth and no species with relative elevation. These results suggest that edaphic and topographic factors, especially humus depth, contribute to determining local spatial distribution and floristic composition of abundant tree species in the forest.

TL;DR: This study introduces a newly isolated, genetically tractable bacterium (Pseudogulbenkiania sp. strain MAI-1) and explores the extent to which its nitrate-dependent iron-oxidation activity is directly biologically catalyzed, focusing on the role of iron chelating ligands in promoting chemical oxidation of Fe(II) by nitrite under anoxic conditions.
Abstract: This study introduces a newly isolated, genetically tractable bacterium ( Pseudogulbenkiania sp. strain MAI-1) and explores the extent to which its nitrate-dependent iron-oxidation activity is directly biologically catalyzed. Specifically, we focused on the role of iron chelating ligands in promoting chemical oxidation of Fe(II) by nitrite under anoxic conditions. Strong organic ligands such as nitrilotriacetate and citrate can substantially enhance chemical oxidation of Fe(II) by nitrite at circumneutral pH. We show that strain MAI-1 exhibits unambiguous biological Fe(II) oxidation despite a significant contribution (∼30-35%) from ligand-enhanced chemical oxidation. Our work with the model denitrifying strain Paracoccus denitrificans further shows that ligand-enhanced chemical oxidation of Fe(II) by microbially produced nitrite can be an important general side effect of biological denitrification. Our assessment of reaction rates derived from literature reports of anaerobic Fe(II) oxidation, both chemical and biological, highlights the potential competition and likely co-occurrence of chemical Fe(II) oxidation (mediated by microbial production of nitrite) and truly biological Fe(II) oxidation.

TL;DR: It was concluded that polar extract (water) exhibited higher anticancer activity than non-polar extracts (ethylacetate and n-buthanol).
Abstract: The aim of this study is to investigate anticancer activity of methanol extract (ethylacetate, n-buthanol and water partitions) and water extract from Sarang semut (local name), Myrmecodya pendens which is one of Rubiaceae family. Within Papua area (Indonesia), this medicinal plant has been used traditionally as alternative treatment for ulcer, tumor and cancer. In this study, the extracts of this plant were tested for their activities in some cancer cells (HeLa and MCM-B2 cell). The result showed that water extract of this plant has better anti cancer activity compared to other extracts. The IC50 value of water extract A is 27.61 ppm (HeLa) and 54.57 ppm (MCM-B2), while water extract B is 29.36 ppm (HeLa) and 74.20 ppm (MCM-B2). Our study concluded that polar extract (water) exhibited higher anticancer activity than non-polar extracts (ethylacetate and n-buthanol).
