EDUCATION OF TOURISM ETHICS CODE DEVELOPMENT AS SUSTAINABLE TOURISM ZERO EMISSIONS (CASE STUDY: GUNUNG MENYAN, BOGOR)

Bogor Fruit Garden (BFG) has an area of 3.30 ha, which is a combination of flower, fruit and phytopharmaca gardens. The purpose of implementing the Global Code of Ethics for Tourism (GCET) is to achieve sustainable tourism development and to shape the behavior of tourism people in a more responsible direction. The first problem faced by Partners is the lack of knowledge and skills in making the GCET. The second problem faced by Partners is the lack of knowledge and skills in selecting flora species for BFG collections, and how to calculate carbon dioxide absorption. The solution to addressing the first problem is by socializing the GCET. The solution to overcome the second problem is by socializing tree species and how to calculate carbon dioxide absorption from various tree species. Improvement and Knowledge of BFG Managers related to GCET is quite good (5.84%). While related to the type of tree and how to calculate the absorption of carbon dioxide by 7.10%. This is shown by the results of an analysis involving 7 BFG employees and managers, with pre and post-tests consisting of 14 GCET elements and tree species and how to calculate carbon dioxide absorption.

Flower Garden as a Short-Term Greening Effort for Embung Area in Srimulyo Village, Gondang District, Sragen Regency, Central Java

A flower garden was created to green the embung area considering the dry season in August. The master plan used as a reference is a master plan made by the previous KKN period. In the execution process, the making of the flower garden has yet to be realized. Therefore, in this period of KKN, a flower garden was made west of the village pond. The flower garden created has a size of 8 x 2 meters with a distance of 30 cm between plants. There are 89 plants in this flower garden, namely 50 red purslane plants, 30 sabrina plants, and nine panca air plants. Making the garden begins with clearing the land and cleaning up the existing weeds. Then, the land measurement is carried out according to the desired garden size. After that, the process of tillage so that the soil can be planted with flower plants that have been prepared. The process of tillage is a process that takes much time. More than three days of new soil can be planted with flower plants. The obstacle faced in making this garden is the dry soil conditions, resulting in soil management that must be done with a long process.

Optimizing the Strategic Communication of Gerbas Tani Community in Developing Tourist Village in Kedungrejo, Rowokangkung, Lumajang

Gerbas Tani stands for Gerakan Belanja Sayur dari Lahan Petani, which was born in 2018, marked by the educational activity "Petik Tomat" for kindergarten students. The mascot of Gerbas Tani is a 0.1-hectare flower garden in the middle of a 2.5-hectare vegetable garden. The total number of visitors when the flower garden is in bloom reaches 20,000 people, with an average of 30-50 visitors per day. However, due to the pandemic, vegetable sales have stopped, and tour visitors are limited. The mentoring process was carried out through the Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) approach through the stages of discovery, dream, design, define, and destiny to optimize strategic communication to develop the potential of Gerbas Tourism Village.
 The results of this service have successfully encouraged the Gerbas Tani Community to become a solid community to preserve the tourist village through persuasive communication. Gerbas Tani members become actors of change collectively in order to realize a sustainable and developing village through the development of online sales while maintaining offline sales. They consistently hold different tourism activities three times a year as a solution to developing a tourist village after the Pandemic. 
 The findings highlight the importance of strategic communication in empowering local communities, strengthening partnerships, and promoting sustainable economic development in the context of tourism villages.

Morphological Characteristics and Expression Patterns of CmCYC2c of Different Flower Shapes in Chrysanthemum morifolium

The chrysanthemum is widely used as a cut flower, potted flower, and garden flower worldwide and has high ornamental, edible, and medicinal value. The flower heads, composed of ray florets and disc florets, are the most diverse in terms of morphology among ornamental plants. Here, we compared and analyzed the developmental processes of different capitulum types as well as ray florets and disc florets. Morphological differentiation of the two florets occurred on the dorsal domain of the petals at stage Ⅳ of flower development, and differences in stamen development occurred at stage Ⅴ. The dorsal domain of the ray florets and the early stage of flower development were also an essential site and period, respectively, for the differences among capitulum types. In situ hybridization revealed that CmCYC2c, whose homologs are involved in the specification of floret identity in Asteraceae, was expressed in both the dorsal and ventral domains of the ray petals in the tubular-type chrysanthemum, whereas, it was differentially transcribed in the ray petals of flat- and spoon-type chrysanthemum cultivars and had lower or no expression in the dorsal domain and higher expression in the ventral domain at stage Ⅳ. Our study indicates that the expression pattern of CmCYC2c on the dorsal domain of the ray floret at stage Ⅳ contributes to the formation of diverse flower head types in chrysanthemums.

Vegetal and zoomorphic imagery as a means of artistic embodiment of the natural/artificial opposition in Guy de Maupassant's novel "Our Heart"

The article is devoted to the analysis of the vegetative and bestiary poetics of Guy de Maupassant's late psychological novel "Our Heart" (1890), which lacks the proper attention of literary scholars both in France and abroad (scientific reflection is focused on short stories and novels of the heyday of Maupassant's realism). Therefore, its poetic study and introduction into the modern literary context is an actual scientific task. The purpose of the article is to define the semantics and symbolism of plant and bestiary imagery in the artistic structure of G. de Maupassant's novel "Our Heart" and to establish its functions in the realization of natural/artificial opposition, that is conceptual for the novel. The research was carried out in the framework of the structural-semiotic method of analysis of the artistic text. The analysis of the novel from the point of view of the artistic functions of floral and zoomorphic imagery proved the special place of these tools in deepening the psychological picture and expressive-emotional expressiveness of the images of the protagonists: André Mariolle and Madame de Burne. The range of these tropes is from vegetal and zoomorphic comparisons and metaphors to elaborate zoo- and dendroanthropomorphic images (Michelle de Burne is first a ‘bird of paradise’, a ‘wild bird’, then a ‘hawk of prey’ and, allusively, an ‘ostrich’, and also an old tired ‘horse’, a ‘nag’; Mariolle – is a ‘trapped wounded animal’, a ‘thrush in a cage’, a ‘small fish caught in a net’). The plant analogue of the heroine is a man-made flower garden, which gradually withers and decays, as her love for Mariolle fades away. Michelle's image is accompanied by numerous floral details that acquire a metaphorical meaning (these are cultural flowers of selected varieties – roses, orchids, carnations, geraniums, lilies of the valley, chrysanthemums, lilies etc.). In contrast to the “artificial” Michelle, the image of the “natural” Elizabeth is associated with wild forest plants – violets, gorse etc. The protagonist is correlated with ramified dendrosymbolism (chestnut, beech, oak, linden etc.) and the image of the forest as a secret liminal space. The symbolism of the wild forest is opposed in the novel by the symbolism of an orderly garden (as one of the options for embodying the natural/artificial opposition). Vegetal and zoomorphic images not only accompany the characteristics of the characters, but are also closely intertwined, passing one into the other (the anthropomorphic image of fused trees turns into the image of a battle between a predatory beast and its victim, plant juices become living blood). Subjective signs of the main character's “artificiality” are the images of stone flowers and stone animals decorating the central spatial locus of the novel – Abbey Mont Saint Michel. So, florisms, dendrisms and animalistic images in the novel perform a characteristic function, convey the dynamics of the feelings of the protagonists, acquiring a metaphorical meaning, and fill the landscape with symbolic details.

Community Approach for Public Flower Garden Renovation in Hanoi Center: Perspective for Building a Green City

Public gardens in urban areas play an important role in the development of physical and mental health of the people. These spaces are also social spaces, where people meet to interact, exchange, and organize collective activities. They create a unique identity for each residential area in the city, which is a premise for green urban development. In Hanoi, public flower gardens (PFGs) were formed and developed from the French colonial period, mainly those in the historic city centre. Facing the forceful urbanization process and the changing of urban structure, in order to evaluate the role of all public flower gardens in the historic city centre area, we carried out a systematic survey from 2019 to 2022. We surveyed all 30 PFGs in five central districts of Hanoi, and interviewed 229 users at these gardens. We also conducted research on relevant documents regarding the management and planning of green space and water infrastructure in the city. Moreover, we implemented an experimental workshop, combining an urban living lab (ULL) approach and an in situ landscape approach, to develop urban landscape design ideas with community participation. Based on the data from this research, this paper analyzes the potential for the establishment of urban blue-green infrastructure (BGI) from these PFGs and aims to evaluate the role of community participation in landscape design for the city. Data from multiple collection methods provide a multi-faceted understanding of the original characteristics of the PFGs in Hanoi and their importance in urban life. The project results supply experimental lessons from urban landscape design activities through community participation, which opens up the potential for developing sustainable urban spaces based on existing natural structures in the city. The main result proves that active community participation until the end of the research project raises public awareness and ensures the social acceptance of the final design. These lessons allow the improvement of urban landscape design practices and the establishment of BGIs from PFGs in an efficient and sustainable manner for green cities in the future.

An annotated and illustrated identification guide to common mesophotic reef sponges (Porifera, Demospongiae, Hexactinellida, and Homoscleromorpha) inhabiting Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary and vicinities.

Sponges are recognized as a diverse and abundant component of mesophotic and deep-sea ecosystems worldwide. In Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary region within the northwestern Gulf of Mexico, sponges thrive among diverse biological and geological habitats between 16-200+ m deep (i.e., coral reefs and communities, algal nodules, and coralline algae reefs, mesophotic reefs, patch reefs, scarps, ridges, soft substrate, and rocky outcrops). A synoptic guide is presented, developed by studying common sponge species in the region, through direct sampling and in-situ photographic records. A total of 64 species is included: 60 are Demospongiae (14 orders), two are Hexactinellida (one order), and two are Homoscleromorpha (one order). Thirty-four taxa are identified to species and 13 were identified to have affinity with, but were not identical to, a known species. Fifteen taxa could only be identified to genus level, and the species remain as uncertain (incerta sedis), with the potential to represent new species or variants of known species. One specimen received only a family assignation. This study extends geographic or mesophotic occurrence data for eleven known species and includes several potentially new species. This work improves our knowledge of Gulf of Mexico sponge biodiversity and highlights the importance of the region for scientists and resource managers.

Oleg Tamulilingan with Badung Style as the Primadona in the Performance Arts of Bali Tourism

The Oleg Tamulilingan dance is a traditional Balinese dance with the theme of romance, which depicts the romance of male and female beetles, danced in pairs by a male and female dancer. Researchers have extensively discussed the popularity of the Oleg Tamulilingan Dance. But, no one has disclosed the Badung Style in Oleg Tamulilingan Dance has remained the primadonna of the Bali tourism industry. The question is: what is the structure of the Badung version of the Oleg Tamulilingan dance?; What is the origin of the Badung-style Oleg Tamulilingan dance?. This research was conducted using qualitative methods. The data sources for this study were: Oleg Tamulilingan with Badung Style Dance, dancers, musicians, dance teachers, artists, humanists, experts, and related communities who were selected based on purposive sampling and snowball techniques. All data that has been collected through observation, interviews, and literature studies was analyzed qualitatively. The results of the research show that the Badung Style in Oleg Tamulilingan Dance is performed in the form of a loose dance depicting a male and female beetle making out in a flower garden. This can be seen from the way it is presented, the makeup and clothing, as well as the musical accompaniment used. The structures used in the Oleg Tamulilingan with Badung Style performance are pepeson, pengawak, and pengecet. The emergence of the Badung Style in Oleg Tamulilingan dance was caused by internal and external factors. The internal factor of the Oleg Tamulilingan Dance is the talent of the first dancer, Gusti Ketut Raka Astuti, who teaches his students. The external factor is the development of tourism, which provides an opportunity for the development of the Badung Style in Oleg Tamulilingan Dance and has implications for the enrichment of the presentation model of the Oleg Tamulilingan Dance.

Features of the growth and development of decorative lupine species in the conditions of the architectural and exposition plot at the VNAU

The conducted research is devoted to modern decorative floriculture, which is a fast-growing industry, and its most important task is the constant expansion of the range of flower and decorative plants for various purposes in landscaping. It has been established that the source for enriching the cultural flora is the collection funds of ornamental plants collected in botanical gardens and arboretums as the main centers for the preservation of the gene pool of many plants and their cultural varieties. A wide variety of decorative and valuable lupins is available in the architectural and exposition site of the Department of Forestry, Horticulture, Horticulture and Viticulture of the Faculty of Agronomy and Forestry, as well as the Podillia Botanical Garden of the Vinnytsia National Agrarian University. Decorative and valuable lupins have sufficient ecological plasticity, which is confirmed by growing in many introduction centers with different natural and climatic conditions. However, they are often not used in the decorative horticulture of flower arrangements in the Podillia area. It has been investigated that the main reason for the insufficient use of these species in landscaped settlements is the lack of information about their ecological and biological features and decorative properties, cultivation technologies and options for their use. However, the introduction of representatives of the genus Lupinus L., namely Lupinus polyphyllus L., into the culture contributes to the preservation of biodiversity and the involvement of a significant range of flower and ornamental plants in culture conditions. The replenishment of the collection of the architectural exhibition area of the VNAU with the introduced hybrids Gallery White and Gallery Red, the expansion of options for simple and complex garden compositions with their participation, their more even placement within the boundaries of populated areas will significantly bring the flower garden design of populated cities of Ukraine closer to the level of the best world examples.

A Study on Natural Control against Nematodes and Whiteflies with Marigold, Known as an Antagonist Plant.

The importance of finding natural solutions for the protection of our health in the fight against pests in agriculture is increasing day by day. In this study, the interaction of the active ingredients in marigolds as the great importance as a garden flower, with nematode and whitefly receptors as ligands in the fight against them, have been investigated by chemical calculation method. The inhibition effect of ligands (alpha-Terthienyl, Quercetagetin in marigold) on nematode and whitefly receptors in this plant was determined by comparing the binding energy values with reference drug active ingredients (imidacloprid, Perhexiline).This calculation method, the accuracy determined by different studies, is very important in terms of determining the most active substance in a short time, preventing time and substance loss, and will guide the experimental studies and applications to be made in this field.

Tobacco for the flower garden: Plant collecting and plantation crops in nineteenth‐century Britain

AbstractThis essay analyzes the understudied practice of collecting, marketing, and displaying colonial plant commodities as garden ornaments in nineteenth‐century Britain. From the early modern period onward, British garden writers discussed tobacco, sugarcane, coffee, tea, and other colonial crops in their books and magazines, often citing colonial agriculture as a point of interest to curious gardeners. As I will argue, this mode of collecting and aestheticizing plants discloses the deep ambivalence of the British horticultural press toward the realities of plantation agriculture. Building on previous analyses of plants and empire, I show how the cultivation of tobacco in nineteenth‐century flower gardens contributed to a broader mediation of Britain's colonial past in horticultural literature. Paying attention to this collecting trend will not only recover an overlooked chapter in the history of British horticulture, but also show how nineteenth‐century garden writing operated as a space for transmitting (and manipulating) narratives about colonial agriculture.

Pengembangan Menu Unggulan Modern Berbahan Baku Lokal untuk Cafe di Wisata Rainbow Garden Poetoek Soeko Trawas Kabupaten Mojokerto

Poetoek Soeko Rainbow Garden Tour is one of the tourism attractions managed by BUMDES Sukosari Makmur in Trawas-East Java that provide beautiful flower garden objects. The presence of a café is one of the supporting factors of rainbow garden tourism. To give characteristics and improve visitor interest, café menu diversification based on local possibilities must be established. Local potential in the form of spice, tuber and local plants was cultivated through the Matching Fund community service initiative started by UBAYA in the form of instruction in the manufacturing of local-modern fusion food. Participatory Action Research (PAR) method was implemented and delivered in three stages: planning, execution, assessment, and monitoring. This community service initiative resulted in three variations of local-modern cuisine which are implemented in new menu book in the Poetoek Soeko Rainbow Garden café. This program had a beneficial influence on boosting the partners' knowledge and abilities, as evidenced by an examination of test scores before and after the training. Cooking competitions held after product creation not only measure participant skill, but also boost competitiveness in the development of future menus. Based on post-test conducted resulting the increase of knowledge regarding local ingredients and processing up to 15.63%.

The Flower Garden Banks Siderastrea siderea coral as a candidate Global boundary Stratotype Section and Point for the Anthropocene series

The proposed Anthropocene Global Boundary Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) candidate site of West Flower Garden Bank (27.8762°N, 93.8147°W) is an open ocean location in the Gulf of Mexico with a submerged coral reef and few direct human impacts. Corals contain highly accurate and precise (<±1 year) internal chronologies, similar to tree rings, and their exoskeletons are formed of aragonite and can be preserved in the rock record. Here we present results from a large Siderastrea siderea coral (core 05WFGB3; 1755–2005 CE) sampled with annual and monthly resolutions that show clear markers of global and regional human impacts. Atmospheric nuclear bomb testing by-products (14C, 239+240Pu) have clear increases in this coral starting in 1957 for 14C and the first increase in 1956 for 239+240Pu (potential bases for the Anthropocene GSSP). Coral δ13C declined especially after 1956 consistent with the Suess effect resulting from the burning of fossil fuels. Coral skeletal δ15N starts to increase in 1963 corresponding with the increase in agricultural fertilizers. Coral Hg concentrations (1933–1980) loosely track fluctuations in industrial pollution and coral Ba/Ca increases from 1965–1983 when offshore oil operations expand after 1947. Coral temperature proxies contain the 20th-century global warming trend whereas coral growth declines during this interval.

Jonsonian Stylistic Modes in Sutherland: A Study of Jonson’s Volpone and Sutherland’s The Marriage of Anansewa

Jonsonian dramatic theories gained notoriety during the Renaissance period and most dramatists and critics (of that century and beyond) have appropriated those theories in the construction of their literary crafts and criticisms all within the Eurocentric tradition. Limiting literary creativity and criticism to the Western tradition raises a question that this essay seeks to interrogate. Drawing inspiration from Wa Thiong’o’s (1997) advocacy for a metaphor of a flower garden to represent the wholeness of Literature and Borowy’s (1983) model, this paper studies Jonsonian stylistic modes in Volpone (1605) and compares them to Sutherland’s artistic choices in The Marriage of Anansewa (1975) to make a case for a refluence of aesthetic energies among the two artists despite the fact that four centuries elapse in the exhibition of those artistic skills.
