Assessment of nematode and microbial diversity and screening of entomopathogens in revegetated post-coal-mining land in Kutai Kartanegara District, East Kalimantan, Indonesia

Abstract. Sopialena, Rosfiansyah, Suryadi A. 2024. Assessment of nematode and microbial diversity and screening of entomopathogens in revegetated post-coal-mining land in Kutai Kartanegara District, East Kalimantan, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 25: 2921-2930. Post-coal-mining management should strive toward site revegetation. The success of such revegetation efforts is largely determined by the soil's fertility status, which encompasses physical, chemical, and biological components. Biological fertility is indicated by the presence and abundance of soil microbes and nematodes. The objective of this study was to identify the diversity of nematodes and soil microbes in ex-coal-mining land revegetated with oil palm in Kutai Kartanegara District (East Kalimantan, Indonesia), to screen for entomopathogenic nematodes and microbes, and to analyze their relationships with the chemical fertility status of the land. As a control, non-mining land was also investigated. The results showed that microbial diversity and density (including fungi and bacteria) in the ex-coal-mining area were significantly lower compared to the control. Additionally, a decrease in microbial diversity and density was found in deeper soil layers of both post-mining and non-mining lands. In contrast, soil nematodes were more abundant in post-mining land, both in terms of diversity and density, and were also more plentiful in the deeper soil layers. Among the nematodes and microbes studied, only Heterorhabditis and Steinernema (nematodes), Trichoderma (fungi), and Bacillaceae (bacteria) were identified as entomopathogens, causing death in Tenebrio molitor L. larvae. Overall, soil fertility in ex-coal-mining land was observed to be lower, characterized by decreased soil pH, basic saturation, Soil Organic Carbon (SOC), and nutrient content, which contributed to a reduced microbial community compared to non-mining land.

The Indonesian health system faces significant challenges to provide effective care for infectious diseases, and even more so, NCDs. This is concerning due to the greater vulnerability of pregnant women to complications caused by concomitant illnesses (NCDs and infectious diseases), and the need for complex, integrated healthcare between maternal care and other health services. The objective of this study was to understand supporting factors and challenges of the health system to providing care for concomitant illnesses in pregnancy and how it may be improved. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with sixteen key stakeholders, including health providers and health service managers, involved in maternal healthcare for concomitant illnesses at a District level in Indonesia. The study was conducted in Kutai Kartanegara District of East Kalimantan. Analysis was conducted using framework analysis to identify themes from transcripts. Supporting factors of the health system to provide care for concomitant illness in pregnancy included collaboration between health providers and health services, availability of screening and diagnostic tools, and access to universal healthcare coverage and financial subsidies. Common challenges included knowledge and awareness of concomitant illnesses among health providers, competency to diagnose and/or manage concomitant illnesses, and inappropriate referrals. Suggested improvements identified to address these gaps included increasing education and refresher training for healthcare providers and strengthening referrals between primary and hospital care. The findings identified gaps in the health system to provide care for concomitant illnesses in pregnancy in Indonesia that need to be strengthened. More evidence-based research is needed to guide the implementation of policy and practice interventions for the health system to deal with a broader range of concomitant illnesses in pregnancy, particularly NCDs.
