Abstract: The present study was conducted at Animal Farm/College of Agriculture/ University of Basra during 20/11/2014 to 18/2/2015. The aim was to clarify the effect of using straw treated with whey and urea at different levels on some productive and physiological traits of male Arabi lambs. A total of 16 male lambs were used aged 6 - 7 months with an average weight of 30.50±1.65 Kg. the lambs were distributed randomly and equally to four treatments. Concentrate diet included barley (55%), wheat straw (43%), vitamin and minerals (1%), urea (0.5%) and salt NaCl, (0.5%). Lambs were fed at 3% of their live body weight with adjustment depending on body weight change through the study period to every treatment (every two weeks). The residual feed was collected every following morning to measure the consumption feed. Ration of each treatment was as follow : 1 - First treatment : 100% concentrate diet.2 - Second treatment : 90% concentrate+10% straw treated with whey and urea.3 - Third treatment : 80% concentrate+20% straw treated with whey and urea.4 - Four treatment : 70% concentrate+30% straw treated with whey and urea.The studied productive traits were live weight, daily and total growth rates, feed consumption and feed conversion ratio, carcass traits (hot carcassweight, dressing%, cuts weight, carcass offal, internal organs weight, abdominal, heart, kidney, pelvic and tail fat weight with physical dissection of rib cut and measurement of meat, bone and fat%). Organoleptic test included color, flavor, tenderness, juiciness and total acceptance. Blood biochemical traits included total protein, glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, serum urea and some hormones as growth and thyroxine hormones. Results can be summarized as follow : 1 - There were significant differences in final body weight and daily and total growth rate of lambs of second group, which was fed 10% treated straw with whey and urea in comparison with other groups.2 - Significant improvement in feed conversion ratio of lambs of 2nd group in comparison with other groups as well as there was an increase in feed consumption of lambs of 2nd and 3rd groups.3 - There were significant differences in hot carcass weights of 2nd group in comparison with other groups as well as dressing% of lambs of control and 2nd group in comparison with other groups.4 - Lack of significant differences among treated groups in the cases of cut weights, weight and % of meat, fat and bone of rib cut, external body offal, internal organs and some body fat depots.5 - Significant differences in tail weight of 2nd group and abdominal fat of 2nd and 4th groups in comparison with other groups were observed.6 - There were significant improvement in some organoleptic test as flavor and total acceptance of groups received straw treated with both 10% or 20% whey and urea in comparison with control group.7 - There was a significant increase in total proteın concentration in blood serum of lambs of 2nd and 3rd group in comparison with other groups. There was also a significant difference in serum urea concentration of lambs of 2nd, 3rd and 4th groups in comparison with control group.8 - Neither signifcant differences were found in cholesterol, glucose, triglyerides nor in growth and throxine hormones among studeid groups.

The species constituted 48.3% of the total catch. Fish group size 9.0 - 9.9 cm was dominated in the samples (19.7%).The length - weight relationships of A. mossulensis for immature, female and male were : W = 0.003 L3.087 , W = 0.002 L3.193 , W = 0.004 L3.027respectively, revealing an isometric growth for immature and males, and allometric growth for females. The relative condition factor ranged from 0.71 in June to 1.44 in February with total average of 1.05 for immature, and from 0.78 in August to 1.40 in January with total average of 1.06 for females, and from 0.7 in August to 1.24 in January with total average of 0.99 for males. Four age groups were recorded and the most abundant age group was the second. The relation between total length (L) and scale radius (S) was : L =2.549 + 4.825 S. The lengths of fish during the first four years were 8.15, 11.33, 13.55 and 16.0 cm respectively. The growth performance index of A. mossulensis was computed as 2.16. The growth was described by von Bertalanffy equation as Lt = 20.4(1 - e - 0.35(t+0.277)).Feeding activity values ranged from60.53 % in February to87.7 % in September. The minimum value of feeding intensity was 6.08 points/ fish in December and the maximum value was 8.7 points/ fish in July. Insects comprised 41.2% of the total food items of A. mossulensis followed by algae 28.7%, crustacean 15.9%, diatoms 12.36%, aquatic plants 3.74%, fish 3.36% and Mollusca 0.3%. Fish was found omnivores, tends to animal food more than plant food. The mean value of Lm50 was estimated to be 8.0cm, corresponding to one years old for both sexes. The overall sex ratio was (1 : 1.7 male : female). Gonadosomatic index for females ranged from 0.8 and 0.6 in June for females and males respectively to 14.01 and 5.8 in January for both sexes respectively. The spawning period started in February according to GSI values and histological examination for gonads during spawning season. The results of histological examinations revealed that this species has a short spawning season and female ovaries contained different maturing stages of ova, and the maturation started from the post part of gonads according to the space noticed at the middle part of the ovary. Histological examination proved that testes also contain different maturation stages. Blood vessel penetrate lobules with few spermatocytes at the posterior part of the testes whereas the anterior part less mature with disappearing of spermatocytes. Absolute fecundity for A. mossulensis ranged from1119 eggs for fish of 10.4 Cm length to 5022 egg for female of 14.2 Cm length.The relation between the total length (L) and fecundity represented by the following equation : F = 0.148L3.939 , r2 = 0.605

Abstract: This work was conducted in Plant Tissue Culture Laboratory, Agriculture Collage, Basrah University, Basrah Governorate, Iraq during the period 23/ October/ 2013 to 15/ March/ 2015. The aims of this study can be summarized to : (a) set up a protocol for establishment of sterilization techniques and effect the source of explants in micropropagation of dwarf gardenia (Gardenia jasminoides Ellis.) cultivar 'Radicans', (b) study the effect of different growth regulators auxins and cytokinins on multiplication and rooting of regenerants , and (c) set up a procedure for plantlet acclimatization .Results can be summarized as follow : 1. Contamination is first obstacle facing the micropropagation for dwarf gardenia. In order to overcome this problem, a sterilization procedure was developed as a base line to determine the relative effectiveness of various disinfectants which is described in this study. Observations indicate that only 26.60% healthy clean cultures was obtained when 40% of sodium hypochlorite solution used singly. But, when explants disinfected first with 40% sodium hypochlorite followed by treating with 0.1% mercuric chloride for 10 minute the percentage rate of aseptic cultures increased to 56.60%. Therefore, the successful protocol was adopted in this study.2. (a) Results revealed that High response to tissue culture , shoot numbers , length, leaf width and leaf numbers (100%, 1.30 shoots/explant, 8.4 - 1.55 cm and 2.66 leaves/explant respectively) were obtained when the shoot tips and nodal explants cultured on MS medium supplemented with 3 mg/L BA+ 0.2mg/L NAA+ 0.2mg/L GA3 each. While, maximumsuccessful response of nodal explant to tissue culture 80% and 100% was observed in MS medium enriched with BA 3 and 4 mg/L BA. However, granular callus was formed on the lower part of the nodes, but after a time this callus turned brown and hyperhydric (vitrified).(b) Maximum successful response of shoot tips in vitro 100% was noticed in MS medium enriched with different concentrations of TDZ 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 mg/L in the presence of NAA and GA3 0.2mg/L each, but the high rate of shoot number 1.8 and length 1.18 cm obtained on MS medium containing 1 mg/L TDZ. Where, the rate value of leaf width and numbers were increased only on MS medium fortified with low concentrations of TDZ 0.5 and 1mg/L. On the contrary, nodal explants cultured on same medium failed to responding, except the ones cultured on MS medium containing 1mg/L TDZ , showed moderate rate value of average growth responding66. 06%.3. (a) Results also revealed that the culture of shoot tips on medium supplemented with a combination of 3 mg/L BA, 0.2 mg/L NAA and 2 mg/L GA3 gave the highest value of average shoots number, leave number, and leaf width (2.50 shoots/explant, 6 leaves/plant and 1.7cm respectively). But, at this formula shoots became hyperhydic and leaves fall down. Whereas, highest shoot length 1.75 cm was recorded on MS medium enriched with 1 mg/L BA.(b) Highest shoot and leaf numbers and leaf width recorded on MS medium containing 1 mg/L TDZ in the presence of NAA and GA3 0.2mg/L each 4.33 shoots/explant, 6.00 leaves/ explant and 1.30 cm respectively. Whereas, highest shoot length 1.50 cm recorded on MS medium fortified with 0.5 mg/L TDZ. However, small amount of white brownish callus raised around the nodes grown on medium containing 0.5 mg/L TDZ, whilebig amount of the same callus was recognized around the nodes grown on MS medium containing 1.5 mg/L TDZ.4. (a) The present study has revealed that abundant primary callus formation (100%) could be achieved only from young leaf segments (basal and middle segments) within 10.3 and 15.3 days in MS medium containing 3 mg/L 2,4 - D and 0.2 mg/L BA, and under dark conditions.1) Transferring the primary callus to MS medium enriched with 3mg/L 2,4 - D for 8 weeks under light conditions led to induce somatic embryos, that can be identified by their nodular consistency and green color.2) While, shifting the primary callus to MS medium enriched with 3 or 5mg/L BA + 0.2mg/L 2,4 - D led to converting the primary callus to compact callus, and at the end of incubation period, small adventitious shoots was generating.(b) Results also showed that white brownish granular callus initiated under dark conditions on the base of the leaf petioles (basal segment) explants grown on MS medium containing 5 mg/L BA+0.2mg/L NAA, then the callus increased to covered whole explant during the end of incubation period. However, adventitious shoots was generated from primary callus when shifted to MS medium fortify with 1 or 2 mg/L BA. Results also revealed that the middle segment of the leaf explants failed to form callus on MS medium containing different concentrations of BA used in this study.(c) It was observed that in vitro shoots segments 1.5 cm length produced 100% callus on 1/2 MS medium enriched with 8 mg/L NAA within 8 - 9 days of inoculation. However, transferring this callus to full strength of MS medium supplemented with 1 or 2 mg/L BA led to generating small green adventitious shoots.5. (a)Maximum root formation rate 100% with high number of roots 7.33/plantlet, root length 7.33cm and number of secondary roots (8.00/ main root), were obtained within a short period 13.33 days Also, it was found that the length of shoots and number of leaves were increased to 12 cm and 11.33 leaves/plantlet, respectively.(b) On ½MS medium containing different concentrations of NAA 2, 4, 6 and 8 mg/L in the presence of 0.2mg/L BA, adventitious roots formed with rate 100%. These roots emerged indirectly from the edge of shoots with callus induction phase and developed into white thick and wide roots which grew and branched inside medium. However, maximum value of morphological traits for root was obtained when the shoots grown on MS medium containing 8 mg/L NAA in the presence of 0.2mg/L BA, while the less period of root formation was recorded when the NAA concentration decreased to 2mg/L.6. Two procedures of acclimatization have been attempted to obtain full healthy plantlets ex vitro. Results showed that the soaking of rooted plants for 10 - 14 days in pure water, nearly 60% of plantlets were survived. Whereas, treated the plantlet with 2% PEG 6000 before transplanting to soil increased the survival rate to 100%, Also this concentration of PEG was decreased the precentage of wather loss from leaves of gardenia plants through the acclimatization stage 12.8%.

Abstract: This study was conducted in the Animal Farm of the College of Agriculture - University of Basrah. A total of 28 Arabi male lambs were used, with average age of 5 months and mean body weight of 21.74 ± 1.33 Kg. Lambs were distributed equally and randomly into 7 nutrition rations in two experiments. First experiment was a growth experiment which lasted for 90 days. The second was digestion field experiment and lasted for 13 days after the end of the first experiment. The experimental rations were as follows : Ration - 1 - (control) - fed on concentrate ration only by 3% of body weight. Ration - 2 - fed on 90% of the control ration and 10% of ground date stones substituted for the barley.Ration - 3 - lambs fed on the ration 2 with addition of 3 grams of bakery yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) / Kg of feed. Ration - 4 - fed on 80% of the control ration with substitution of 20% of date stones for barley.Ration - 5 - lambs fed on the ration 4 with addition of 3 grams of bakery yeast per Kg of feed.Ration - 6 - fed on 70% of the control ration and 30% of date stones.Ration - 7 - lambs fed on the ration 6 with addition of 3 grams of bakery yeast per Kg of feed.Results were as follows : 1 - Mean final body weight (34.00 Kg) except Control ration, total gain weight (12.75 Kg) except the control and 2 rations and daily gain weight (141.67 g/ day) of lambs in ration 3 were significantly higher than animals in other rations.2 - Animals of ration 3 recorded the highest feed consumption arithmetically (0.829 Kg/ day/ lamb) and the best feed conversion ratio arithmetically too (5.85 Kg dry matter/ Kg body weight gain).3 - Substitution of date stones with addition of bakery yeast affected digestion coefficients of feed nutrients. Ration 3 was superior in digestion coefficients of dry matter, crude protein and nitrogen free extract to other rations. These values were 70.64, 72.11 and 80.64 %.4 - Results showed significant differences between means of pH of rumen fluid and total bacterial count which Significant decreases in each of 6 and 7 rations than other rations while in the counts of cellulolytic digestion bacteria, ration 3 were significantly than animals in other rations but not differ significantly from that of the ration 5 while it was similar with control ration. 5 - No significant differences between rations were noticed in means of red blood corpuscles, white blood cells, hemoglobin, packed cell volume, cholesterol concentration, glucose concentration and concentration of the enzymes GPT and GOT. While differences between means of blood urea concentration and total protein of blood were significant.6 - Mean empty body weight, hot carcass weight, dressing percentage on the basis of live weight and empty body weight of lambs in ration 3 28.02 Kg, 16.18 Kg, 47.59% and 57.74% respectively were significantly higher than that of animals in other rations except control ration in hot carcass weight.7 - The highest weights of rib cut (rib 7 - 12), leg cut and loin cut were for animals in ration 3 (1.61, 5.00 and 2.40 Kg respectively) than other rations but in the loin cut, the ration 3 was similar to the control ration 2.16 Kg.8 - For body measurements, the highest leg circumference were recorded for animals in rations 2 and 3 (35.00 and 36.50 cm respectively) than other rations but these rations were similar to the control ration. While the highest rib eye muscle area was for carcasses of animals in ration 3 (14.41 cm2) but this value did not differ significantly from that of the control animals (13.45 cm2).9 - In the case of some carcass muscle weights, the muscle Supraspinatus weight were higher in the animals of the ration 3 (176.67 g) but it was similar to control ration (164.25 g). Weight of the muscle Biceps femoris was higher in the carcasses of animals in ration 3 (625.75 g).10 - Carcasses of animals in ration 3 recorded the highest dissected lean meat 931.70 g and fat 280.55 g in rib cut, but no significant differences were registered for dissected bone weight among the different rations. Also weights of the internal organs of the animals namely : liver, heart, kidneys, lungs, spleen and the testicles for animals in ration 3 were higher than that of other rations.11 - Mean weights of separated fat of carcasses were higher for animals of the 2 and 3 rations (1.93 and 1.95 Kg respectively) in comparison with animals of other rations but these rations were similar to the control ration 2.08 Kg.12 - Substitution of date stones in percentages of 10% and 20%, with the addition of bakery yeast caused significant improvement in organoleptic characteristics (color, tenderness, juiciness and overall acceptability). Evaluation of samples of rations 3 and 5 were superior to that of other rations.13 - Rations 3 and 5 gave the best results for water holding capacity in meat. No significant differences were obtained in cholesterol concentration and pH of meat.Results showed that the lowest values of cooking loss were in ration 3 (43.30 %).No significant differences were observed in chemical composition of theLongissimus dorsi muscle (moisture, protein, fat and ash) between rations.

Treatment means were compared using least significant difference L.S.D. test at a probability of 0.05. Results may be summarized as follows : 1.Vegetative growth parameters "Noura" hybrid had the highest leaf area per plant and dry weight of shoot system compared to "Wogdan" hybrid after 90 and 150 days from transplanting. Foliar spraying with both fertilizers at both concentrations caused a significant increase in plant height, stem diameter ,leaf number and leaf area per plant after 90 and 150 days from transplanting, and fresh and dry weight of the shoot system after 150 days from transplanting compared with control treatment. The interactions between the studied factors were significant in most vegetative growth characteristics. 2. Leaf chemical characteristics "Wogdan" hybrid showed significantly higher in the concentration total carotenoid and percentage of phosphorus in leaves compared with "Noura" hybrid.Foliar spraying with both fertilizers at both concentrations caused a significant increase in percentage of nitrogen and the total chlorophyll concentration, whereas Kinglife at 3 g.l. - 1 caused a significant increase in total soluble carbohydrates concentration in leaves comparison with the control. Foliar spraying with Kally28 at both concentrations caused a significant increase in total soluble carbohydrates concentration, whereas Kally28 at 2 ml.l. - 1 caused a significant increase in percentage of potassium and carotene concentration in leaves comparison with the control . The interactions between the studied factors were significant in most characteristics. 3. Flowering characteristics "Wogdan" hybrid had the highest number of inflorescences compared to "Noura" hybrid, whereas "Noura" hybrid had the lowest the flower abortion as compared with "Wogdan " hybrid. Foliar spraying with both fertilizers at both concentrations caused significantly increase in the number of inflorescences, the number of flowers per inflorescences and decreased in flower abortion, as compared with the control. The interactions between the studied factors were significant in most characteristics. 4. Yield and its components "Wogdan" hybrid had the highest number of fruit per plant compared to "Noura" hybrid, whereas "Noura" hybrid had the highest the weight of fruit as compared with "Wogdan" hybrid. Both foliar fertilizers at both concentrations caused a significant increase the yield and its components compared with control unfertilized. The interactions between the studied factors were significant in most characteristics. Foliar spraying of "Wogdan" hybrid with Kinglife at 3 g.l. - 1 and Kally28 at 2 ml.l. - 1 gave the highest values of early yield and total yield per plastic house (4.277 and 10.697) Kg.m - 2, Sequentially,whereas "Noura" unfertilized gave the lowest (2.161 and 5.411) Kg.m - 2, Sequentially. 5. Fruit quality characteristics "Wogdan" hybrid caused significant increases in total soluble solids and concentration of vitamin C compared to "Noura" hybrid, whereas "Noura" hybrid caused significant increases in percentage of dry matter as compared with "Wogdan" hybrid. Both foliar fertilizers at both concentrations caused a significant increase fruit quality characteristics (vitamin C concentration, titratable acidity, total soluble solids and percentage of dry matter) compared with control unfertilized. The interactions between the studied factors were significant in most characteristics.

The important parts drawn and described for classifying species and put taxonomic key. The impact of environmental conditions in study area showed the presence and spread of species and their role as a larvae predators and pupae on adults mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus and also compete with each other during the study of predation relationship and the statement of the phenomenon of self - predation (Cannabalism) in the same species .The study revealed there is five species belonging to the family of water submarine beetles ( Fam : Dytiscidae) as showed below. 1. Colymbetes piceus (Klug, 1834) Subfamily : Colymbetinae2. Cybister tripunctatus (Oliv., 1785( Subfamily : Cybistrinae3. Hydaticus ponticus (Sharp, 1882) Subfamily : Dytiscinae 4. Hydrovatus clypealis (Sharp, 1876) Subfamily : Hydroporinae 5. Laccophilus minutus (Linnaeus, 1758) Subfamily : LaccophilinaeSpecies C. piceus the body average length 16 - 18 mm and head is black with brown base ,the front dorsal plate brownblack and yellow from both sides but C. tripunctatus that its length is larger than 24 - 29 mm and a sleek sheath does not contain sexual engraving, but H. ponticus body length of 10 - 15 mm, head umber is brown to yellowish and the front back plate is yellow which has provided black strap at the base. The species H. clypealis that its length is larger than 2 - 3 mm , that the body convex oval broad, wrist consists of four pieces in the first and second pair of legs, but L. minutus that its length is larger than 4.1 - 5.7 mm , characterized that a front base (Pronotum) zigzagging back, sheath has a reticular lines..The study of annual presence to family Dytiscidae is started between November 2015 until the end of October 2016. Results showed that theBhighest rate of the species was in the H. ponticus reaching 5.78 insect / month, and the lowest rate 0.13 insect / type of species C. tripunctatus . Alemdaina station recorded the highest rate of the presence of the species, reaching 3.25 insect / month whereas Qurna Station was lowest rate reaching 1.87 insect / month. The results showed that the highest rate of the presence of the species during the months was in the November at a rate of 4.41 insect / month, while the least insect rate was 0.96 / month for the month of July.The study included the impact of certain environmental conditions and the presence of which degrees air temperature, water, dissolved oxygen, pH and water salinity in the five main stations in the districts of the Basrah province which are Qurna , Almdaina , Shatt al - Arab , Abo - Alkaseeb and the city center of Basrah province.The study recorded the highest temperature of air and water for the month of July was 43.23 º C and 32.58 º C, respectively, while the lowest was 17.07 ºC and 18.80 º C, respectively, for the month of January. The results showed a higher rate of oxygen dissolved in the Shatt al - Arab and amounted to 5.50 mg / l while the lowest rate was in the center of the Basrah province and reached 5.25 mg / l. The study indicated that pH values were close to all stations and characterized a light alkali where rates between 7.44 - 8.16 in all the stations as well it was observed that the highest salinity rates were in Abu - Alkaseeb station reached 7.01 ds m - 1 while less than the rate of 5.04 ds m - 1 for the station of Almdaina.The study found the results of the most important linear relationships and correlation treatments between the population density of the species and attributes measured the highest correlation coefficients were between the presence of species through the expense of numerical density are full with water temperatures and salinity during the months of the year, amountingCto - 0.84 and - 0.79 respectively, while the influence of dissolved oxygen and pH was less than it before as they relate reached coefficient as 0.67 and 0.55 respectively.The results of the biocontrol on the larvae and pupae mosquitoes is superior kind Cybister tripunctatus on the rest of the studied species was predation rate on larvae 35.22 larvae / day and the pupae 29.78 pupae / day, while the lowest rate was 1.56 larvae / day and 1.33 pupae / day for the type Hydrovatus clypealis.Predation experiments between species recorded outweigh species Cybister tripunctatus The highest predation rate on the species Hydrovatus clypealis reached 3 insect / day on the second day, while the lowest rate of predation was the species Colymbetes piceus reaching 0.55 insect / day on the third day, while Cannibalism experiments It scored higher predation rate for members of a species Laccophilus minutus reached 0.72 insect / day, while not recorded any case of a self - devouring type Cybister tripunctatus.

( Bhooth - 158 , IPA - 99 , Bhooth - 22, Abu - Graib - 3 and Fateh ) for the four levels of N, P and K zero, (60 kg N + 13.8 kg P + 25 kg K hˉ1) , (120 kg N + 27.6 kg P +50 kg K hˉ1) and (180 kg N + 41.4 kg P + 75 kg K hˉ1) . The experiment included 20 treatment came from the combination between wheat cultivars and fertilizer levels . Split - plot design was used in rendomized block design with three replicates , the level of fertilizer were the main plots , where as wheat cultivars were the Sub - plots . Resulte showed the five cultivars are different in it's characteristics as the Bhooth - 158 was superior in number of days to 50% of spiking to maturation (53.75 days ) , flag leaf area ( 48.87 cm2 ), weight of 1000 seeds ( 40.32 gm ) , biological yield ( 21.39 ton .hˉ¹ ) . IPA - 99 was superior in spike length ( 12.56 cm ) , number of seeds per spike( 985.08 ) . Bhooth - 22 was superior in characteristics of seed yield ( 7.91 ton.hˉ¹ ) , harvesting index ( 41.10 % ) and protein yield ( 902.09 Kg hˉ ¹) . Abu - Graib cultivar was superior in plant height (90.62 cm ) ,number of tillers .mˉ 2 (958.10) ,number of spikes .mˉ 2(859.08) and spiking efficiency (89.75% 0 . Fateh cultivar gave the highest number of days from planting to 50% spiking ( 111.59 days) and protein content ( 12.13% ) . Results showed a variance among fertilizer level where F₃ level (180 Kg N + 41.4 Kg P + 75 Kg K hˉ ¹) caused highest number of days from planting to 50% spiking (104.07 days) , number of days from 50% to maturation ( 48.27 ) , plant height (89.98 cm ) flag leaf area (46.50 cm2 ) , spike length ( 12.36 cm ) number of seeds per spike ( 76.78 seed . spike ˉ ¹) . The F₂ level ( 120 kg N + 27.6 Kg P + 50 Kg K hˉ ¹) was superior in number of tillers (828.00 ) , seed yield ( 7.69 ton .hˉ ¹), biological yield ( 20.97 ton .hˉ ¹) , protein (11.78% ) and protein yield (0.906 ton .hˉ ¹) . The F₁ level ( 60Kg N + 13.8 Kg P + 25Kg K hˉ ¹) was superior in number of spikes per. m2 spike .m(609.80 spike .mˉ 2 ) and protein percent(11.72% ) which not significantly different from level F₂ . There were no significant effect of fertilizer levels on spiking efficiency , weight of 1000 seeds and harvesting index . There were an interaction between cultivars and fertilizer level in all characteristics except the weight of 1000 seeds . Bhooth 22 × F₂ level ( 120 kg N + 27.6 Kg P + 50 Kg K hˉ ¹) produced highest seed yields ( 8.55 ton . hˉ¹ ) and protein yield ( 1.01 ton .hˉ¹ ) which was not significantly different from the interaction between Fateh cultivar and 400 kg .hˉ¹ fertilizer which produced protein ( 0.993 ton .hˉ¹ ) . Fateh cultivar fertilized by 400 kg. hˉ¹ NPK produced highest protein percent which was 12.97 % . There was a positive correlation among seed yield and plant height , flag leaf area , number of tillers , spike length , harvesting index and protein yield . A negative correlation was found between seed yield and spiking efficiency . The best economical profit came from the use of F₂ level ( 120 kg N + 27.6 Kg P + 50 Kg K hˉ ¹) which produce ( 7.76) Iraqi dinar for each one dinar used for fertilizer used in north Basrah . The interaction between Bhooth 22 cultivar and level F₂ produce highest product ( 14.70 ) dinars to each one dinar invested in the use of NPK fertilizer that supported by government

Abstract: The current study was conducted in the laboratory of Dr. TalibAhmed Jaayide Molecular Genetics / Faculty of Agriculture /University of Basrah. After collecting blood samples from the Iraqibuffalo in the provinces of Basrah (30 samples), Dhi Qar, Maysanand Najaf (25 samples each), bringing the total samples to 105samples. The study aimed to study the genetic diversity of the Iraqibuffalo through the use of tow techniques, first technique was, thePCR - RAPD technique and the second microsatellite technique(PCR - STR). After extracting the DNA samples, seven primers ofPCR - RAPD technique were used, included C01, C04, C06, C07,C09, C11 and C12. Primers of PCR - STR technique wereILSTS005, ILSTS029 and ILSTS072. After analyzing the results ofthe three technologies it can be summarized as follows : 1 - All primers of PCR - RAPD showed genetic polymorphisms,with the presence of many bands except the primer C11which was notamplified in all samples.2 - The size of primer C07 was 1969 bp, which was the biggestprimer size, however, the smallest primer size was C01(1606 bp).3 - Number of bands showed by PCR - RAPD primers were 28,42, 56, 53, 57 and 64 bands of C01, C04, C06, C07, C09,C12 primers respectively.4 - Primer C09 revealed the highest number of polymorphicbands in Basra and Dhi - Qar provinces (47 and 46 bandsrespectively). However, the primer C12 gave highest numberof polymorphic bands in Maysan (47 bands). The primer C01showed lowest number of polymorphic bands in all studiedprovinces (14 bands in Basra and Dhi - Qar provinces, 12bands in Maysan and 13 bands in Najaf province.5 - Shared bands between Basra and Dhi - Qar, Basra andMaysan, Basra and Najaf, Dhi - Qar and Maysan, Dhi - Qar andNajaf and Maysan and Najaf were 177, 151, 162, 146 and152 bands respectively. The high number of shared bandsreflected high genetic similarly among provinces.6 - Maysan province showed highest special bands of primerC07 (8 bands) followed by Dhi - Qar province (5 bands) whichis considered as fingerprint for these provinces even they showed very low frequencies.7 - Primer C04 revealed lowest genetic diversity measured by Shannon index in all studied areas (28.82 - 35.58%), however, all other primers showed higher genetic diversity (47.57 - 55.70%).8 - Similarity among provinces was higher than 70% to 95% for all PCR - RAPD primers, which indicates that all subpopulations of buffalo belong to one breed.9 - Primers C07 and C12 highlighted highest percent of mean gene diversity to population diversity (GST) with a value of 22.69 and 21.46 respectively.10 - All STR markers (ILSTS005, ILSTS029 and ILSTS072) have been amplified in all buffalo samples of all studied areas. Observed allele numbers were 20, 22 and 21 alleles for markers respectively with a total of 63 alleles. The marker ILSTS005 gave highest number of observed alleles in Dhi - Qar (21), Najaf (20) and Maysan (17). Whereas, the marker ILSTS029 showed less number of observed alleles at Maysan province (9 alleles). 11 - Allele frequencies ranged from 0.02 to 0.32 for all markers and provinces.12 - Shared alleles between Basra andDhi - Qar, Basra and Maysan, Basra and Najaf, Dhi - Qar and Maysan, Dhi - Qar andNajaf, Maysan and Najaf were 25, 27, 30, 22, 33 and 33alleles.13 - Special allele mean frequency of studied population was 0.048. While gene flow after adjusted for sample size of each province was 2.25 alleles. Range of missing allele frequency for all studied areas was 0.000 - 0.099.14 - Range of heterozygosity percent was 80 - 100%, whereas homozygosity% was 0 - 20%.15 - All Fis values of studied markers in all provinces were significant except the marker STR072 in Dhi - Qar province which was nonsignificant. This result reflected the absence of inbreeding in all areas and there was no significant deficiency in genetic variation.16 - Linkage disequilibrium test showed that tested markers are not located on one chromosome.17 - The study thus highlights the usefulness of heterologous PCR - RAPD and microsatellite markers to assess the genetic variability in buffalo. Also various diversity indices suggest sufficient genetic variability within Iraqi buffalo that can be utilized as initial guidelines for future breeding strategies and conservation.

Abstract: Lactobacillus bacteria was Isolated from different food samples included (bananas, tomatoes, apples, mandarin orange, cheese, buffalo milk, local yogurt and imported yogurt) and from infant feaces . 65 isolates were obtained out of 64 food samples, and 11 samples of infant feaces belong to Lactobacillus spp. and identified depending on selective medium MRS agar as well as phenotypic tests, microscopic tests and biochemical examinations including catalase test, production of Co2 from glucose, gelatin liquefaction, ammonia reduction from arginine, nitrate reduction to nitrite, growth examination in different temperatures, indole test, salinity tolerance test, motility test and carbohydrate fermentation test. As well as, confirmed test was done by using PCR technique. Purification and identification conducted and showed it contain (20) isolates of Lactobacillus acidophilus, (23) isolates of Lactobacillus plantarum, (6) isolate of Lactobacillus casei, (12) isolates of Lactobacillus bulgaricus, (3) isolates of bacteria Lactobacillus johnsonii and one isolates of Lactobacillus helveticus. The identified isolates of Lactic acid bacteria were tested on the production of polysaccharide and the optimal conditions for the production by using the modified medium by adding lactose to the medium and vaccine volume was 0.1% and the temperature of incubating was 37c° for (24 - 48) hrs and pH was (6.2 - 6.5) and centrifuged (11000) rpm. Detction of polysaccharide for all obtained bacteria was done . Results showed that the bast of amount production of polysaccharide to(Lactobacillus plantarum )which isolate from imported yoghurt (yR5) because it got the best amount of polysaccharide production which was (850.35) m / ml.SummaryThe presence of polysaccharide was detected by using thin - layer chromatography technique TLC to make sure from the presence of sugar molecules by using sulfuric acid and then the produced polysaccharide was detected by using High Performance Liquid Chromatography Technology HPLC with the existence of standard saccharides for the purpose of detection and comparison.Inhibition activity of both crude bacteria cells and produced polysaccharide were studied against gram positive and negative bacteria which included Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Streptococcus spp., Pseudomonandas aeruginosa and E. coli O157 : H7 as well as the inhibitory activity against fungi was determined for each crude bacteria cells and produced polysaccharide especially against Penicillium spp. and Asprgills niger Result showed that in habithion effect was apparel towel all microorganism however no effect E. coli O157 : H7.Anti - oxidant activity of crude bacterial isolates were tested and the best anti - oxidant activity (Lactobacillus acidophilus (was the isolate which isolated from bananas source (B4) Mar 51.01% reached while less effective was the isolation (Lactobacillus bulgaricus) isolated from the local yogurt source (yL2) if it reaches 14.04% and the highest antioxidant activity of polysaccharide was from the isolate(Lactobacillus bulgaricus) which isolated from the local yogurt source (yL6) , amounting to 67.51% while it was less effective than isolation (Lactobacillus acidophilus ) isolated from the local chess source (Cha2) as it was 1.29% compared with the industrial anti - oxidation BHT and the natural anti - oxidation α - tocopherol in concentration (0.05 g / ml), results showed that the anti - oxidant activity by using the industrial anti - oxidant BHT reached to 82.70%, while the highest inhibitory activity of bacteriaSummaryanti - oxidant compounds 51.01% and for polysaccharide the highest percentage of inhibition was 67.51%, the bacteria anti - oxidant compounds and polysaccharide activity were close, while the activity of the natural anti - oxidants α - tocopherol was 73.96%.The results of sensitivity toward 10 antibiotics showed that all isolates of lactobacillus spp. Were sensitive to clindamycin. While only 16% of isolates were sensitive to nalidaxic acid.The cytotoxicity effect of the Heat killed (HK) cells and polysaccharide extract (EPS) of local isolates of Lactobacillus spp. on three of the cancer cells lines, human cervix uteri epitheloid carcinoma (Hela), muscular cancer cells line (RD) and rat embryogenic fibroblast (REF) as normal cell line , were studied . In this study, six concentrations of both polysaccharide extract and the (HK) cells which were (93.5, 187.5 , 375, 750,1500, 3000) mcg/ml. The results showed that all types of dead cells of lactic acid bacteria and polysaccharide product which clear effect on tumor cells differed depending on the degree of influence, polysaccharide extract of Lactobacillus johnsonii showed highest percentage of inhibition and the highest percentage of inhibition for (Hela) line was (93.64%) at exposure time of 72 hours. while the highest percentage of inhibition recorded for Lactobacillus acidophilus in (RD) line cells was (90.63%) after 72 hours. For the (HK) cells, the highest percentage of inhibition for Lactobacillus casei was 89.77 after 48 hours. While it was no effect of polysaccharide and HK on (Rat Embroy Fibroblast) ofter exposure time 72h.

Abstract: Polymorphism analysis of lactoferrin and prolactin genes and its relationship with milk yield and its components and birth, weaning weight and growth rate before weaning were studied. DNA was extracted from 77 blood samples of Arabi ewes (21 ewes from Animal Farm, College of Agriculture, University of Basrah and 56 ewes from Animal Farm, College of Agriculture, University of Al - Muthana). Lactoferrin genotypes were determined by using Hind III restriction enzyme, those of prolactin by Hae III enzyme at Genetic Engineering Laboratory/ College of Agriculture/ University of Basrah and College of Animal Resources/ Mullah Thani University/ Islamic Republic of Iran. Milk yield was measured once a week from 52 ewes belong to Animal Farm/ College of Agriculture/ University of Al - Muthana. Samples were chemically analyzed. Birth and weaning weight were recorded as well as growth rate before weaning during a period of 1/2/2013 to 31/12/2013. Results revealed the following : 1 - The possibility of amplifying both genes and get two alleles for each and three genotypes of the lactoferrin gene (AA and AB and BB) and two genotypes (AA and AB) of the prolactin gene.2 - Prolactin and lactoferrin A allele frequencies were 0.94 and 0.66 respectively. AA genotypes frequency was 0.88 and 0.52; AB 0.12 and 0.29 and BB 0.00 and 0.19 of prolactin and lactoferrin genes respectively. population was at equilibrium for prolactin gene, but was not in lactoferrin gene.3 - Heterozygosity levels were 11.69% and 28.57% for prolactin and lactoferrin genes respectively. inbreeding coefficients (Fis) were - 0.05 and 0.345 for both genes respectively. University of Basrah and Al - Muthana herds showed very high genetic correlation (0.999).4 - The overall means of total and daily milk yields and lactation length were 61.13±2.76 kg, 0.582±0.04 kg and 104.75±1.95 days respectively. Ewe age and lamb sex did not significantly influence the above traits. However, ewes lambed during February exceeded thoselambed in September by daily milk yield (0.661 vs 0.577 kg) and lactation period (110.00 vs 100.00 days).5 - The overall means of total fat, protein and SNF and their percentages were 2.65 Kg and 4.33%, 2.5kg and 4.11% and 11.98% respectively.

Abstract: This study had been carried out at Plant Protection Department and Genetic Engineering Labs of Agricultural College / Basrah University, while pots experiments were carried out at fields of Agricultural College / Basrah University. The present study included a comparison experiments of different Rhizoctonia solani isolates depending on molecular genetic techniques alongside with morphological and physiological parameters, host range and anastomosis groups identification.Thirty two different isolates of R. solani have been isolated from several host plants from several plant families throughout different geographical areas at Basra governorate. Result of pathogenicity test revealed that the majority of R. solani isolates caused a significant reduction in the germination percent of cabbage seeds, the isolates of Rs5, Rs16 and Rs19 were found to be more pathogenic and led to complete inhibition of germination, hence, the other isolates varied in their effect on seed germination percent and reported the range of 3.3 - 66.7 %, while, the isolate of BRs15 (binucleate isolate) did not show any significant effect on seeds germination compared to control (untreated) treatment (100%). According to pathogenicity test results, the most pathogenic isolates (Rs2, Rs5, R9, Rs16, Rs27 and Rs29) were selected for more followed experiments.Morphological analyses of R. solani isolates elucidated a profound difference among these isolates, the colony color was dark brown with the Rs9 isolate, light brown at the Rs16, while it was cream at the Rs2, Rs5, and Rs27, a white color with light brownish color was observed with the isolates of Rs29. The growth patterns at the medium supplemented with Potassium Chlorat showed that the isolates of Rs5, Rs9, Rs27 and Rs29 were sensitive to chlorate, while, the isolates of Rs2 and Rs16 were resistant to Chlorate. Regaling the effect of temperature on the growth of R. solani, it was found that the optimal growth temperature was at 25 °c for all examined isolates, while no growth was observed for all isolates at the temperature of 10 and 40 °c. The best pH values for growth supporting were 6 and 7 for all examined isolates.Anastomosis group analysis revealed the occurrence of anastomosis among the isolates of Rs5, Rs16, Rs27 and Rs29 with the standard isolate AG2, this confirms that these isolates belong to the group AG2, while the anastomosis between the two isolates Rs2 and Rs9 with standard isolate AG2 did not happen, therefore these isolates belong to a different group. Microscopic observation revealed theBoccurrence of more than two nuclei in each cell of examined isolates the average of nuclei number was 4 - 8 nucleus / fungal cell, while the number of binucleate isolate BRs15 exhibition two nuclei / fungal cell.The DNA extraction experiments for R. solani isolates (Rs2, Rs5, Rs9, Rs16, Rs27, Rs27, Rs30 and AG2) revealed the efficiency of CTAB procedure to get a high DNA yield and that it’s a good quality, as indicated results of measuring the concentration of DNA isolates it was good quantity amount (197.9 - 560.4 ng / μl) was obtained by following this procedure. The random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) results showed that all DNA of examined R. solani isolates were amplified by employing different RAPD primers, also each genetic primer succeeded in differentiation among isolates, as showed the polymorphic bands and monomorphic bands.The results of restriction fragment length polymorphism technique (RFLP) using RS1 and RS4 primers showed that the bands size for R. solani isolates obtained between 500 - 522 bp, restriction technique results using enzymes AvaII, HincII, MseI and MunI showed that Rs2 isolate belong to the group AG1 - IB, while Rs5, Rs16, Rs27, Rs29 and the standard isolate (AG2) belong to the group AG2 - 2, while Rs9 isolate belongs to group AG11 so Rs30 isolate belongs to group AG3 - PT.Result of host range of R. solani isolates showed a significant differences in the host preference, the isolates of Rs2 was able to infect all plant hosts except okra plant, while Rs5, Rs16, Rs27 and Rs29 were able to induce the infection on marshmallow, okra, cowpea, cotton and eggplant, no infections were reported on the host of melon and wheat plants, regarding R. solani isolate Rs9 an infection was observed on marshmallow, wheat and cotton, while no infection was noticed on melon, okra, cowpea and eggplant.Results of binucleate R. solani isolates role in protection of cotton plant from the infection with R. solani, revealed their protective role, the pathogenic effect of R. solani was significantly reduced, the germination percents were increased with BRs15 treatment reached 83.3, 86.7, 93.3, 83.3 and 90% at the treatments of Rs2, Rs5, Rs9, Rs16 and Rs27 respectively, without any significant difference with control treatment (93.3%). The highest germination percent was observed at BRs15 treatment with Rs29 and reported the percent of 96.7 %. Similar results were observed with damping - off percent of cotton plant, which proved the significant efficiency of binucleate isolate in their protection against all examined R. solani pathogenic isolates.

Abstract: This study was conducted to investigate and test the activity of three essential parts of wheat seed Aleurone, germ and bran which were used as secondary products from grinding grain to feed animals. diversity solvents (distilled water, chloroform, hexane, ethanol, methanol) were applied to extract the bioactive compounds by both traditional and modern extractions.The total phenolic compounds, antioxidant activity, reducing power, metal chelating, and scavenging of hydrogen peroxidase were determined for all three essential parts of wheat. The stability of the extracts was studied toward temperature and pH at the interval time. In addition, the synergistic effect of the extracts was studied by mixing with different concentrations of ascorbic acid and alpha tocopherol. The extracted compounds were identified using gas chromatography mass spectroscopy (GC - Mass).The ethanol extraction of wheat germ had the highest antioxidant activity, so it was chosen to prevent oxidation in the corn oil. Moreover, the ethanol extractions for germ, bran and Aleurone were added to wheat flour (80 % extraction) in order to study their effects as improvers in the rheological properties of wheat flour dough. The results were as follows : 1 - The microwave - assisted extraction for 40 sec was able to extract the highest level of phenolic compounds from wheat germ compared toconventional extraction conditions. The total phenolic compounds were 556.6 μg gallic/ml, 426 μg gallic/ml for ethanol and methanol extractions, respectively.2 - The microwave - assisted extraction was able to give the highest antioxidant activity (53%) at concentration of 100 mg/ml from ethanolic wheat germ extraction compared to synthetic antioxidant BHT ( 92 %). In addition, the wheat germ had the highest reducing power (163.88 %) at concentration of 5 mg/ml , while the percentage of reducing power for both ethanolic extraction of Aleurone and ethanolic extraction of wheat bran were 112.63 % and 79.68 %, respectively. In contrasts, all of above extractions had lowest reducing power compared to BHT and alpha tocopherol 249.8 % and 223.5 % respectively at the same concentration. Moreover, the wheat Grem had the highest percentage for both Ferrous chelating and scavenging of hydrogen peroxidase.3 - Ethanolic extracts of Aleurone, bran and germ have a higher antioxidant activity in natural pH while decreased when treated with acid and alkaline. In addition, the ethanolic wheat germ was able to give the highest antioxidant activity at 100°C for 100 min wich read 62.2% compared to others and gave synergistic effect for bothascorbic acid and alpha tocopherol exhibited 91.90 % of antioxidant activity at concentration 60 mg/ml.4 - Identification of ethanolic and methanolic extract using GC/MS showed presence of bioactive compounds such as ascorbic acid, benzoic acid, phytosterol compounds, Isoeugenol and alkylresorcinols5 - Ethanolic extracts of germ with concentration 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25 mg/g was added to corn oil in order to compared with BHT 0.05% and stored at 45°C for 28 days, the result showed that the ethanolic wheat germ at 0.25 mg/g had the ability to decrease the hydrogen peroxide for the corn oil 6.8 meq/kg at end of stored time compared BHT (0.05 %) 4.3 meq/kg at the same conditions.6 - The ethanolic Aleurone extraction possessed a positive effect on the rheological properties when it was added as improvers to the wheat flour ( 80 % extraction). The dough consistency was 6.7 min, which considered highest reading among all treatments. In addition, the recorded elastic index was 3.2, 2, and 1.8 at interval times 45, 90, 135 min, respectively.

Abstract: Field experiment executed during 2016 autumn season in farmers' fields in the AL - Aufia district southwest of Missan province ( about 3 km from city center) in Silty loam soil. The objective of the study was to know the effect of sprayed of gibberellin and manganese on growth, yield and protein percentage of Mung bean (Vigna radiata L.).The experiment executed in split - plot in (R.C.B.D) design with three replicates, main plot were include three gibberellin concentration ( 0 , 100and200 mg GA3wq L - 1) , While sub plot were include three concentration of manganese (0, 50and100mg Mn L - 1) the local variety of Mung bean was used, the experiment include 27 experimental units, area of each units(3×3)m.The stude include following characteristics : Number of days from planting to maturity ,plant height(cm), number of leaves(leaf plant - 1), number of branches, leaf area(cm2), leaf area index, number of pod plant - 1, number of seed pod - 1, weight of 100 seed(gm), total seed yield(kg ha - 1), percentage and protein yield in seeds(%).The result of the study showed the following : 1 - gibberellin sprayed with concentration 200 mg l1 - caused significant increasing in most of growth characteristics of mung bean (plant height, number of leaves, number of branches, leaf area,), and most of yield characteristics (number of pod in plant, number of seed in pod ,total seed yield 865.70 kg ha - 1, percentage and protein yield in seeds ,and sprayed of gibberellin non - significant on weight100seed.2 - Sprayed of manganese with 100 mg L - 1 concentration modify total studied characteristics and gave highest average plant height, number of leaves, number of branches, leaf area, leaf area index, number of pod in plant, number of seed in pod , total seed yield 898.76 kg ha - 1, percentage and protein yield in seeds.3 - Results also showed a significant Interaction between gibberellin and manganese, the combination of (200 mg GA3 L - 1×100mg Mn L - 1) gave the highest seed yield 1002.66 kg ha - 1 and protein Yield 268.86 Kg ha - 1,the increase of total seed Yield due to most of growth characterists and Yield components.
