The present investigation revealed cytological variations for six species (Eruca sativa, Sisymbirium irio, Diplotaxis harra, Erucaria hispanica, Schimpera Arabica and Brassica tournefortii ) belong to the Brassicaceaefamily.The flower buds were collected from Al-Habania lake that located in Al-Anbar-Iraq. Using iron-acetocarmine squash technique in anther-smear studies which revealed a chromosomal anomalies such as Lagging/brddge chromosomes, Micronuclei & initiated delay of four daughter cells.The frequency of abnormalities ranged (0.04 - 0.77%) which indicated the unstable heredity source of most wildplants. The pollen grains viability was estimated using acetocarmine stain, viable grains had stained, while sterile grains had not.The biostatic analysis revealed a high significant deference at >0.01 due to the highest numbers of viable pollen grains compared with sterility. Pollen charactersof polar and equatorial view are significantly sufficient for classified characterization of the plant species. An interesting correlationratio of P/E to estimate pollen grain shape, in Brassicaceae polar view was spheroidal three grooves of all species , wide elliptical shape or sub spheroidal in equatorial view, and grains size were medium. The study conclusion that all six species have high productivity of viable pollen grains which confer resistance to environment, therebymeiotic irregularities could be induced unstable genetic resources andsterility.

In this article four samples of HgBa2Ca2Cu2.4Ag0.6O8+δ were prepared and irradiated with different doses of gamma radiation 6, 8 and 10 Mrad. The effects of gamma irradiation on structure of HgBa2Ca2Cu2.4Ag0.6O8+δ samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction. It was concluded that there effect on structure by gamma irradiation. Scherrer, crystallization, and Williamson equations were applied based on the X-ray diffraction diagram and for all gamma doses, to calculate crystal size, strain, and degree of crystallinity. I
