You to know taro.

Taro is a group of plants of the genus Caladium (taro tribe thread, Araceae). In everyday language taro is also often used to refer to some other plants is related to but not including caladium, such as taro (Colocasia). Rarely true taro tubers enlarged form. Factory original Brazilian jungle, but now spread to many parts of the world.
Identifier is the most typical form of taro leaves as a symbol of the heart / liver. The leaves are usually smooth and contains a layer of wax. Tuber size is never more than 1m. A few species and hybrids are used as ornamental plants page.

Type taro.

There are seven types of caladium, all from Brazil to Central American jungle. In the dry season is usually active (loss of leaves) and regrowth when sufficient water availability.
caladium bicolor
caladium humboldtii
lindenii caladium
caladium paradoxum
caladium schomburgkii
caladium ternatum

The usefulness and dangers.
All parts are poisonous and taro should not be consumed.
However, its use as an ornamental plant is quite extensive. This plant has been raised and glorified since the late 18th century in Europe. Especially C. bicolor has undergone many changes in the nature become leafy colors. There is also a dwarf cultivar. There are at least 120 cultivars of C. bicolor. There is also an interspecific cross with C. burgkii to get wavy leaves.
Keladi can bring chicks and from here can be developed a new plant. It can also be grown from kormus contained in the soil.

Rats taro plant.

Taro mice contain substances that can activate the function of blood cells produce mediators, thus stimulating and activating the immune system. In Malaysia rodent tuber is used as a cure for cancer is recommended that the joint use of medical treatments such as chemotherapy (chemotherapy) or radiation therapy (radiotherapy). In patients with advanced cancer using rodent tuber extract has shown very positive results. Rat taro can overcome the side effects of chemotherapy, such as hair loss, nausea, discomfort and loss of appetite.

Rodent Tuber - Rodent Tuber Latin name Typhonium Flagelliforme have a medicinal plant. In rodent tuber China called Lioshu Yu. While in Indonesia, the mention of these plants are very diverse. In some areas on the island of Java, for example, rodent tuber often called Kunting Talas.

Rat taro can overcome the side effects of chemotherapy, such as hair loss, nausea, discomfort and loss of appetite.

The characteristics of the plant.

Owned taro mice that resemble clumps of grass growing in the wild taro in loose soil, moist and shady. On the island of Java, rodent tuber is found in almost all the places both the highlands and lowlands. The new plant grows taro mice, rounded leaves are slightly oval-shaped. The next leaf leaves begin to taper like taro leaves. Old taro rat smooth green leaves resemble the sharp pointy arrows. Yellowish-white flowers and petals resemble a rat. Its roots are white enlarged to form tubers. Mature plant height 10 s / d 20 cm (good quality) with a weight of 10 s / d 20 grams each clump. Tuber rodent tuber London Ground. Mature plants ready for the ball diameter between 1 cm s / d 2 cm. This plant is often found growing in the gutter (watery land) and very fertile. In the rice fields in some areas even a lot of taro grown in the rice rat. So that every moment should be eliminated / eradicated by interrupting the growth of rice. Rodent tuber that grows at such heights can reach 40 cm in diameter to 4 cm spreader lights. For treatment such as rodent tuber quality is very low.

Rats taro plant is usually found in the rainy season. In the dry season the leaves disappear taro mice. Secondary tubers remain in the soil that will grow back when the rainy season arrives. In search of rat taro tuber quality for medicinal purposes should be a great time. The time is right for the retrieval of tubers is the end of the rainy season until the middle of the dry season. After the lights have started the process of decay occurs, which at the beginning of the rainy season plants begin to form new bulbs. Signs of low quality lights when the time is split has begun to diminish the level of starch in which the light is more dilute. Search time for those in need of rodent tuber tubers in large enough quantities would be a problem. Because the search time is quite narrow. Way to overcome this is to their own cultivation.

Avoid Mistakes.

There are plants that are similar to rodent tuber is Typhonium trilobatum. Typhonium trilobatum in the literature of Chinese medicine called Half the summer. Typhonium colored leaves trilobatum hujau choppy and somewhat faded. Part bud leaf tips are still purple and dark brown roots. Typhonium trilobatum wide petals resembling a tongue and purple. Trilobatum Typhonium contain substances that are toxic. Therefore, to avoid mistakes.

If you are not completely familiar with when looking for a rat taro plants from the wild, do not directly consume. Placing the plant in a storage area in advance to determine whether the plant is obtained correctly and avoid mistakes. Another way to avoid confusion is by cultivating its own. Since the cultivation of his own interest or you can look at other characteristics Cici more thoroughly.

Storage area.

Storage rodent tuber storage area should not be more than 6 weeks because it will reduce the quality significantly.

This storage is only for those who want to consume fresh taro rat (rodent tuber juice).
When you took the rodent tuber in the wild in large numbers (for very specific areas may be possible), then you need a place to store that plants are not damaged (decayed). Of the storage area that you can take according to the needs of every day (150 g). This saves space in addition to functioning as pickling also to avoid confusion.

How to set up a storage area.

1. Prepare the soil is quite extensive with the necessary solar (direct sunlight better).

2. Dig the soil to a depth of about 7 cm.

3. Enter the compost - fertilizer dug thickness between 1 s / d 2 cm and average.

4. Cut stems / leaves Rodent Tuber way, so that from the tuber, petiole remaining 2 s / d 3 cm.

5. Place the bulbs on top of the compost with a distance of 1 cm from each other with a handle at the top. Do not overlap.

6. Cover lighting / mining area with new compost to the soil.

7. Flush the storage every day.

In 1 s / d 2 weeks the bulbs will grow back and thus these lights will not be damaged. You can take every day as needed. And this way you can save taro mice grew more than 1500 per 1 square meter.

About 2 s / d 3 weeks the plants were stored have started flowering. To avoid confusion, to take only the consumption of which has been flowering plants (with the correct flower).

If the storage space you get the wrong plants (eg purple petals) you should immediately throw not participate consumed.

You know radishes.

Horseradish is a plant that goes to the family Cruciferae. Forms of radish tubers like carrots, but the content and white skin. Radish plants originated from China, and has been widely cultivated in Indonesia. Plants are easy to grow well in lowland and mountainous.
Currently, many areas are planted radishes Pangalengan plateau, Pacet, Cipanas, and Bedugul. The area of ​​turnip plants in Indonesia is around 15,700 hectares.
Good soil to plant radishes are loose soil, containing humus (fertile), the top layer of soil that contains no gravel (small stones), and the degree of soil acidity 5-6. Suitable planting time is during the rainy season or early dry season. For planting in the dry season, the plants should be enough water.

How to planting.

Plant radishes ditumpang celery juice in Pangalengan.
Horseradish is grown from seeds. Radish seedlings do not need to be imported from abroad (imports), enough of its own grain yield because the plant is flowering and seed. The seeds can be planted directly in the garden without first sowing. For planting seeds of 1 ha is required to 5kg.
According to the theory, for an area of ​​1 ha takes 4 kg of seeds with 75% germination. Before the seeds are planted, the land to be planted were pre-processed by means of hoeing depth of 30-40 cm, then given manure or compost 10 tons / ha. After the ground leveled, made ​​groove groove spacing of 30 cm. Preferably the grooves made ​​lengthwise from west to east so that the sun into the plants to the fullest. Furthermore, the seeds were sown thinly evenly along the groove, then covered with a thin layer of soil. The seeds will grow after 4 days later.
After 2-3 weeks of age, the plants began to be weeded while made ​​mounds were made ​​by means of land along the row of plants elevated. While didangir soil, plants embroidered. In order to grow optimally, dwarf growing plant that thrives revoked and maintained.
Once embroidered, to 10-20 cm plant spacing. In general, farmers rarely give artificial fertilizers. In order obtained satisfactory results, plant radishes should be given artificial fertilizers. Artificial fertilizers need to be given is urea, TSP with a ratio of 1: 2 by 6 g per plant. Fertilizer on either side of the plant stem at a distance of 5 cm. Thus, to plant 1 ha required 100 kg of urea and 200 kg TSP. Fertilizer should be given at the time of land didangir.
Maintenance of plants.
Plant radishes important to be protected from pests that may attack aphids. These pests can be eradicated with insecticide sprays like Kelthin 0.2% or Decis 2.5 EC 0.2-0.3%.

Harvesting.

Crop can be harvested after tuber crops are quite large, roughly 2 months old plants. Delay in harvesting will cause the bulbs become woody and it becomes uncomfortable. If this happens, turnip bulb difficult market.
Plants were maintained can produce tubers 15-20 tons / ha. There is even a type of radish that can produce a tuber weighing up to 0.5-1 kg, and taste delicious tubers.

Benefits.

Horseradish can be used as medicine renal impairment and fever. In addition, it can also produce mucus in the throat, so good for cough medicine. Radish tubers can be eaten raw or pickled, but are generally made ​​as a soup mix. Thank you for reading this article. Written and posted by Bambang Sunarno. sunarnobambang86@gmail.com

Alpha viruses.

S.K. Lam and K.B. Chua, WHO Collaborating Centre for Arbovirus Reference and Research (DF/DHF), Department of Medical Microbiology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Malaya, 50603 Kuala Lumpur.

Alphaviruses are known to give rise to a spectrum of disease in humans, ranging from silent asymptomatic infections to undifferentiated febrile illness to devastating encephalitis. The following alphaviruses have been associated primarily with fever and polyarthritis.

Chikungunya virus

CHIK is responsible for extensive Aedes aegypti-transmitted urban disease in cities in Africa and major epidemics in Asia. The crippling arthralgia and frequent arthritis that accompany the fever and other systemic symptoms are clinically distinct. Several other togaviruses of the alphavirus genus (Ross River, O’nyong-nyong, etc) have been associated with a similar syndrome. CHIK activity in Asia has been documented since its isolation in Bangkok in 1958. Other countries which have reported CHIK activity include Cambodia, Vietnam, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, India, Indonesia, and the Philippines.

CHIK virus is transmitted in the savannahs and forests of tropical Africa by Aedes mosquitoes of the subgenera Stegomyia and Diceromyia. Aedes aegypti is an important vector in urban epidemics in both Africa and Asia.

Clinical Features

CHIK is an acute infection of abrupt onset, heralded by fever and severe arthralgia, followed by other constitutional symptoms and rash, and lasting for a period of 1-7 days. The incubation period is usually 2-3 days, with a range of 1-12 days. Fever rises abruptly, often reaching 39 to 40 degrees centigrade and accompanied by intermittent shaking chills. This acute phase lasts 2-3 days. The temperature may remit for 1-2 days, resulting in a "saddle-back" fever curve.

The arthralgias are polyarticular, migratory, and predominantly affect the small joints of the hands, wrists, ankles and feet, with lesser involvement of larger joints. Pain on movement is worse in the morning, improved by mild exercise, and exacerbated by strenous exercise. Swelling may occur, but fluid accumulation is uncommon. Patients with milder articular manifestations are usually symptom-free within a few weeks, but more severe cases require months to resolve entirely. Generalized myalgia, as well as back and shoulder pain, is common.

Cutaneous manifestations are typical with many patients presenting with a flush over the face and trunk. This is usually followed by a rash generally described as maculopapular. The trunks and limbs are commonly involved, but face, palms and soles may also show lesions. Pruritis or irritation may accompany the eruption.

During the acute disease, most patients will have headache, but it is not usually severe. Photophobia and retroorbital pain also occur but not severe. Conjunctival injection is present in some cases. Some patients will complain of sore throat and have pharyngitis on examination.

CHIK infection has a somewhat different picture in younger patients. Arthralgia and arthritis occur but are less prominent and last a shorter time. Rash may be less frequent; but in infants and younger children, prominent flushing and early appearance of maculopapular or urticarial eruption may be a useful indicator.

In Asia, several virus isolations have been made from severely ill children diagnosed as having haemorrhagic fever, similar to DHF.

Treatment

Supportive care with rest is indicated during the acute joint symptoms. Movement and mild exercise tend to improve stiffness and morning arthralgia, but heavy exercise may exacerbate rheumatic symptoms. In unresolved arthritis refractory to aspirin and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs, chloroquine phosphate (250 mg/day) has given promising results.

Diagnosis

The definitive diagnosis can only be made by laboratory means, but CHIK should be suspected when epidemic disease occurs with the characteristic triad of fever, rash and rheumatic manifestations.

Virus isolation is readily accomplished by inoculation of mosquito cell culture, mosquito, mammalian cell culture or suckling mice. Viremia will be present in most patients during the first 48 hours of disease and may be detected as late as day 4 in some patients.

Virus-specific IgM antibodies are readily detected by capture ELISA in patients recovering from CHIK infection and they persist in excess of 6 months. Haemagglutination inhibition (HI) antibodies appear with the cessation of viremia. All patients will be positive by day 5 to 7 of illness. Neutralization antibodies parallel HI antibodies.

Chikungunya IgM serology test is available in University Malaya.

Ross River Virus (Epidemic Polyarthritis)

Striking epidemics of rash and fever were noted in rural Australia as early as 1928. Both endemic and epidemic transmissions in Australia pose major public health problems. Although never fatal, the discomfort and loss of productivity from joint symptoms persist for weeks and occasionally even years. The isolation of Ross River virus from mosquitoes and its serologic association with epidemic polyarthritis led to better understanding of the disease.

RRV is endemic and epidemic in tropical and temperate regions of Australia. Large epidemics have been reported from Northern Territory, Queensland, Victoria, South Australia and New South Wales. Aedes mosquitoes such as Aedes vigilax and Aedes camptorhynchites, Culex annulirostris and Mansonia uniformis have been implicated as vectors.

Clinical Features

In Australian cases, the incubation period has been estimated to be 10-11 days. Onset is relatively sudden and the first symptom is usually joint pain. Rash occurs in the majority of patients, usually coincident with, or 1-2 days after, initial symptoms but in some cases rash preceded joint pains by 11 days and followed them as much as 15 days. The eruption is usually macular, papular, or both and occasionally is accompanied by vesiculation of the papules or petechiae. The eruption is typically most prominent on the trunk and limbs and may involve the palms, soles, and face. In a minority of patients it is itchy, and it fades within a few days. Constitutional symptoms such as fatigue and lethargy occur in only half the patients. Body temperature is normal, or in half the patients modestly elevated for 1-3 days. Myalgia, headache, anorexia, and nausea are common.

Three-fourths of patients have joint manifestations and are incapacitated for considerable periods of time. The severity of the pain interferes with sleeping, walking or grasping everyday objects. Involvement of multiple joints, often asymmetrical and usually migratory, occurs. Wrists, ankles, metacarpophalangeal, interphalangeal, and knee joints are most common, although toes, shoulders, and elbows are also targets. Joints of the spine, hip and jaws are least often affected. Arthralgias are worse in the mornings or after immobilization; modest exercise may improve them. About one-third of patients will have true arthritis. Periarticular swelling and tenosynovitis are also common. 10-30% of patients will have paresthesias and/or pain in the palms and soles.

Most patients will be unable to work or perform house work; but by 4 weeks, half will be able to resume normal activities, albeit with residual arthralgia. About 10% will still be limited by joint symptoms at 3 months. Occasional patients will continue to have signs and symptoms of articular disease for 1-3 years.

Treatment and Prevention

Aspirin and, if no relief obtained, nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs should be used for relief of joint pains. Because eventual complete recovery is always assured, steroids should not be used.

A prototype inactivated vaccine has been produced in Australia.

Chikungunya Knocking But Not Contagious.

Assorted tropical diseases often breed during the transition seasons.
One of the tropical diseases are now emerging chikungunya disease.
What exactly is the Chikungunya disease? How is the impact if a person has the disease?
Chikungunya disease caused by chikungunya virus that originated and spread by the bite of Aedes aegypti and Aedes Albopictus. Therefore, to prevent any similar to the dengue fever, which includes 3M: drain the tub, close objects that can hold water, and hoard goods unused. Cause: Chikungunya virus
A doctor from the Mothers and Children's Hospital Eva Sari, Rawamangun, Central Jakarta, said that the dengue chikungunya difference lies in the virus. Chikungunya disease is derived from the chikungunya virus, whereas dengue is derived from dengue virus.
To distinguish it was a bit difficult because of all the viral infection causes fever (high) suddenly to 40 degrees.
However, in patients with dengue fever, the symptoms are accompanied by shock due to the leakage of blood vessels. While chikungunya is not the case.
Chikungunya disease symptoms in different people, depending on age. In adults, symptoms are characterized by joint pain and sudden high fever. Dengue fever can also bring joint pain even though the symptoms are not too intense.
But both can be the same initial symptoms: sudden high fever. While in children, symptoms of chikungunya only characterized by high fever alone. To ascertain whether the person is exposed to chikungunya or not, the doctor will do an examination of IgM and IgG anti-chikungunya.
Explained that chikungunya patients usually have pain in the whole body and headache. However, they will only be treated symptomatically, ie the extent of the symptoms alone. For example, by giving a fever or analgesic drugs to counteract the pain in the joints. Disease itself, because it is triggered by a virus, will heal by itself.
In the body, usually the chikungunya virus will incubate in a period of 5-7 days. Same with DHF. Entering the 8th day, usually starts to recover. But this depends on the level of immunity of each person.
In older people whose immune systems are depleted, joint pain can last for months or even up to two years because of a long healing process. However, the high fever only lasted 7 days. In adulthood with no history of other diseases, will usually heal within 7 days.
The immune system depends on a person's lifestyle. If you live a healthy lifestyle and a balanced and nutritious food intake, plus sports, chances are the pain will not be long. Therefore, chikungunya disease comes from a virus that can not be treated with antibiotics, but it really depends on one's immune.
Although not fatal, chikungunya patients may experience temporary paralysis. This is due to chikungunya affect any muscle joints. High pain at some point in organs, such as the elbows, wrists, toes, which is very intense, causing the sufferer can not move.

endemic illness

As a tropical disease, chikungunya is endemic, it could happen anywhere depending on the season. Usually more common in the rainy season or the transition period. Even so, like dengue, chikungunya now could happen to a person anytime.
Condition of the environment that most determines the level of vulnerability of the spread of chikungunya. If the environment is clean, then the mosquitoes are happy in a dark place and standing water will not breed. In the village or town, the same risks assessment, depending on the level of cleanliness.
Although characterized by high fever, medically there is no prohibition for the sufferer to take a bath. Only, in order not to shiver need to use warm water.
Chikungunya is not a contagious disease. You should not hesitate to make contact with the patient. Thank you for reading this article. Written and posted by Bambang Sunarno. sunarnobambang86@gmail.com

The leaves are large and wide, pinnate clear. Tengguli green or red color. Large flowers with bright colors, such as red, pink, and yellow arranged in the form of bunches.

To reproduce Canna, Canna gang revoke enough (they grow like clusters), then separate the cob and can directly place the new plant. Usually the first soak two or three days in a bucket filled with water until it reaches the upper limit in the tubers (rhizomes), newly transferred. Flowers canna likes sun and moist soil towards wet. In Indonesia, canna planted as the water in the pond. canna in Australia resistant to heat air sometimes quite extreme, but do not like the cold at all.
Also snails (snails) are the main enemy canna because they like to eat the leaves. Canna flowers beauty has led to various types of hybrids and cultivars or very difficult to want to specify the name or species.

Gladiolus flowers on.

Gladiolus is an ornamental flowering plant in the form of shaped herbaceous crops included in the family Iridaceae. Gladiolus comes from the Latin "Gladius" which means small sword, as the shape of its leaves. A native of South Africa and spread in Asia since 2000 years. In 1730 began to enter mainland Europe and developed in the Netherlands. Plant gladiolus which includes subclasses Monocotyledoneae, fibrous roots, and these plants also form the contractile roots that grew during the formation of the new corms. The advantages of cut gladiolus flowers are long-lasting freshness about 5-10 days and can bloom all the time.
The results of the study in 1988, Indonesia recognize 20 gladiolus varieties of Dutch then tested multiple locations in the garden experiment Sub Research Institute for Horticulture Cipanas. Three varieties of which have the most beautiful appearance, (color and shape is different from the old gladiolus), namely: White godness (white), Tradehorn (red-orange), and Priscilla (white). Variety of gladiolus flowers are:

Gladiolus gandavensis, large, visible flower arrangement overlap, 90-150 cm long.
Gladiolus primulinus. small size, very interesting. Stemmed delicate but strong and reach 90 cm in length.
Gladiolus ramosus. 100-300 cm long flower stalk.
Gladiolus nanus. Curved flower stalk, and a length of only 35 cm.
Some other gladiolus flower cultivars that have been tested in Indonesia are: Red Majesty, Priscilla, Oscar, Rose Supreme, Sanclere, Dr. Mansoer, Albino, Salem, Angry Fire, Queen Occer, Ceker and so forth. Meanwhile, IAARD through Ornamental Plants Research Center (Balithi) has produced four varieties of gladiolus, namely, Dayang Sumbi, Kaifa, Clara, and Nabila.

Flowers that can be grown at an altitude of 600-1400 m above sea level, has a pretty good economic value. Plants from South Africa has a Latin name "Gladius", which means "little sword", can grow well in soil pH from 5.8 to 6.5 in the temperature of 10-25 ° C. Propagation can be done vegetatively and generative. These plants are very tolerant of various soil structure, from light sandy soils with low organic material to the soil is heavy clay or clay. Planting gladiolus should be cultivated on land that is not a former plantation gladiolus or close relatives, such as iris, ixia, freesia and monbretia.

Gladiolus flower production center in Indonesia's West Java contained in Parongpong (Bandung), Salabintana (Sukabumi) and Cipanas (Cianjur). In the middle of the region Java Bandungan (Semarang), while in East Java is in the area of ​​Batu (Malang). Gladiolus are produced as cut flowers that have economic value and aesthetic value. Cut flowers are also a means of traditional equipment, religious, ceremonial and ritual purposes other state. Gladiolus cut flowers is one of the most sought after, both for decoration in the building party at home or habitation. Plant gladiolus will bloom around 60-90 days after planting. The relatively large size of the flowers make it eye catching and worth paying. Gladiolus is also rich in color. There is a pink gladiolus, white striped purple, light orange, orange, yellow, gladiolus two colors, and of course white.

However, Flowers gladiolus flowers are relatively easy to lose water (gladiolus wilt quickly). Even so, the condition can still be circumvented. Of course, proper harvesting techniques should also be applied. Cut flowers should be harvested when the sun is hot but harvested before sunrise or late evening. When harvesting, cut the flower stems in italics. By doing so, created a broader cross-section of the stem to absorb water. Harvesting can be done after the flower petals 1 and 2 flower buds show color bottom already, but not yet in bloom. When the harvest is done after blooming, gladiolus flowers will easily damaged during transport. But otherwise if the flowers are harvested too early, the flowers can not bloom.

Did you know flowers Wijayakusuma.

Wijayakusuma Flower (Epiphyllum anguliger) including types of cactus plants that have dicotiledoneae class. These plants originated from tropical America (Venezuela and Bors) and can live in areas with moderate to tropical climates. Even so, not all of these plants can bloom because it is influenced by climatic conditions, soil fertility also means maintenance.
Flowers Wijayakusuma just broke a few moments and can grow well in a place that is not too hot. In general, a type of cactus plant is rather difficult to determine its morphology, unlike the case with Wijayakusuma. This plant is easily identified after old age, we can see where the leaves, where the trunk, and other parts. Among the people of Yogyakarta and Surakarta, especially the palace, believed that a king who would ascend to the throne must have Wijayakusuma interest as a condition. This flower is also believed to be the incarnation of Vishnu heritage palace Dwarawati the Nature conservationist, Batara Kresna.

Plant shape.

The trunk is formed from the leaf blade is hardened and narrowed where the parent stem form is cylindrical. Plant height can reach 2-3 meters, leaves are 13-15 cm range. Strand itself shaped flat leaves and green leaves with a smooth surface without burr unlike other cacti. Then each of the edges of the leaves are indentations are usually covered with leaves and flower buds. The flowers are 10 cm in diameter, colored white and only bloom at night. Shape round fruit that has a red color and has black seeds. Breeding is usually done with penyetekkan or seeds.
