A field experiment was conducted at the field of the Dept. of Field Crop Sci. / College of Agriculture / University of Baghdad . The objective was to determine the values of relative constant of three – way and double crosses of maize . Ten inbreds were used and crossed during spring and fall seasons of 2009 to produce three - way and double crosses , and ten hybrids were taken from each group . The ten hybrids were grown and selfed during spring 2010 to produce 2 seed . Three way and double crosses were sown with their parents and 2 seed during fall 2010 in RCBD with four replicates . Leaf area , total dry matter , row/ear , grain/ear , grain weight and grain weight/plant of hybrids , parents and 2 plants were taken . Results showed that the relative constant obtained was applicable to estimate ̅2 of hybrids . However , leaf area was different in values of ̅2 , as compared to that observed in the field . The relative constant values were different as trait and parent number of crosses differ . The obtained relative constant of grain weight/plant was (0.576) and (0.556) , grain weight (0.521) and (0.516) , grain /ear (0.571) and (0.554) , raw / ear (0.509) and (0.502) , total dry matter . plant -1 (0.553) and (0.541) and leaf area (0.508) and (0.495) in three way and double crosses , respectively . It was concluded that the application of relative constant , to predict parent means ( ̅), ̅2 and parent number (n) was fit as compared to Wright's equation [ ̅2= ̅1 – ( ̅1 - ̅)/n ] . Accordingly , it was recommended to use the formula [ ̅2 = χ ( ̅1 + ̅)] to predict ̅2 of hybrids , [ ̅ = ( ̅ 2 / χ ) – ̅ 1] to predict ̅, and [ n = ( ̅1 - ̅ ) / ( ̅1 - ̅2 ) ] to predict number of inbreds included in the hybrid
The morphometric parameters of Acinopus (Acinopus) laevigatus Ménétriés, 1832 (Coleoptera, Carabidae) were studied and their altitudinal variability was assessed. The length of head is the most variable, and the smallest value of the coefficient of variation is observed for the width of elytra. The length of body parts (head, pronotum, elytra) were more variable compared to their width. The correlation relationship between the morphometric parameters of different parts of the body was analyzed. A high correlation was found between the elytra length (EL) and the total body length (BL) (r=0.93), and the lowest correlation was found between the elytra width (EW) and the pronotum length (PL) (r=0.57). According to all measurement indicato

A large number of Mannich bases have been prepared as a biologically active compound (pharmaceutical, pesticides, bactericidal, fungicidal and tuberculostatic) and in order to correlate their structure and reactivity with their pharmacological activity such as . It has been reported that the reaction is easily proceeded by using primary and secondary amine beside formaldehyde. But when we tried the reaction of thiols as substrate and formaldehyde and succinimide instead of amine, the reaction did not proceed to give Mannich base but product were methylenene – bis – sulfide .

This research aims to identify the effect of measuring reinforcement (regular - irregular) in gamification upon developing computer skills among secondary education students in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The research experiment was applied on two samples of (68) secondary education students in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in the Aurar region. The results revealed there is a significant difference between the experimental group that used (irregular) reinforcement and the control group used (regular) reinforcement in gamification through the post-application of the electronic programming test and through the programming, language skills observing card (Visual Basic Studio).
