It is included among the top five tubers food crops contributing 99% of world production. These plants grow in a secondary forests in Manokwari Regency, West Papua, but it has not been cultivated yet by farmers or local communities, so it needs to be explored to identify its growing environment, morphological characteristics and its species variety. The Exploration was conducted in 9 districts of Manokwari Regency, West Papua which consisted of West Manokwari, South Manokwari, East Manokwari, North Manokwari, Masni, Prafi, Sidey, Tanah Rubuh, and Warmare, with a total area of 4650.32 km 2. The exploration was carried out by determining randomly sampling points based on where the plants were found. Samples found were taken its photo, and collected its morphological character data and collected its dry specimens. The results found that the plant lives at a range temperature of 25.5-34.8 0 C, 57.7-88.2% humidity range, and light intensity range at 1033-26200 lux. Forty accessions were obtained during the exploration comprising of 5 species i.e Dioscorea alata L., Dioscorea bulbifera L., Dioscorea hispida Dennst, Dioscorea pentaphylla L., and Dioscorea pyrifolia Kunth. The results showed that 2 accessions of Dioscorea alata L had thorny stems and leave position of 2 other accessions were alternate; 2 accessions of Dioscorea bulbifera L. had thorny stems; and Dioscorea pentaphylla L found to have compound leaves with 3, 4, 5 and 7 leaf blade.

Although early discharge of healthy term newborns is a common practice, neonatal hyperbilirubinemia (NH) is the most common cause for readmission during the early neonatal period. Objective: To determine the association of cord serum albumin with serum bilirubin levels and whether it can be used as a risk indicator for the development of NH. Method: In this observational study, cord blood was collected from healthy term newborns for serum albumin level measurements. Total serum bilirubin and direct serum bilirubin were measured during 72 e96 h of life. Newborns were clinically assessed daily for NH or for any other complication during the study period. Result: Among the study cohort of 300 babies, 35 had a total serum bilirubin level of 17 mg/dl after 72 h and were considered to have NH. They were grouped as Group 1, Group 2, and Group 3 according to the cord serum albumin level 2.8 g/dl, 2.9e3.3 g/dl, and 3.4 g/dl, respectively. Statistical analysis was conducted to assess the correlation of cord serum albumin with NH. The results showed that a cord serum albumin level 2.8 g/dl is critical, as it was seen in 95% of term newborns who developed NH. In the group where cord serum albumin was 3.4 g/dl, none of the term newborns developed NH. Conclusion: Term neonates with hyperbilirubinemia with a total serum bilirubin level 17 mg/dl had levels of cord serum albumin of 2.8 g/dl, and this can be used as a risk indicator to predict the development of NH.
