To investigate the effect of electric shock (ES) on morphological variations of faba bean traits, seeds of three varieties of the crop were germinated. When radical was 2-5 mm, seedling were soaked in a 1% NaCl solution for 3h, then transferred to glass container with same solution. Wire with two polar were connected to the container solution and AC current 220 V was switched on for 3,6 and 9 minutes. Seedling then washed and planted at the field in winter 2010-2011,. Factorial Experiment was arranged in randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replicates were used. Seeds were collected first season of treatments, including the treatment comparison and then planted in the winter season of 2011-2012.The results obtained in the first season causing morphological variations in most of the traits, electric shock for 9 minutes gave less day to flowering was 81.21 days, increase number of pods/plant 23.94 pod , number of seeds / pod 4.23 seed and seeds yield was 3716.42 kg/ha. Shock for 3 minutes early the flowering of plants in the second season was 74.16 days and the number of branches / plant 13.66 Branch ,number of pods / plant 14.5 Pod and gave the highest height of the plant 76.92 and 62.12 cm for both seasons, respectively. While shock for 6 minutes gave the highest seed weight in the second season, which not differ significantly with treatment comparison was also, characterized with superiority in the percentage of protein in the first season (23.1%).The Zaina variety was earlier in flowering (77.91 and 78.87 days) for the first and second seasons respectively, also gave the highest number of pods/ plant 24.91 in the first season, and highest number of seeds/pod 3.98 and 2.83 seed for two seasons and which did not differ significantly from other varieties Aguadulce and Local respectively and exceed seeds yield in the first season was 3433.99 kg / ha. Aguadulce variety was superior in plant height for two seasons77.91 and 62.12 cm, respectively. Local variety , gave highest percentage of protein which did not differ significantly with Aguadulce variety reached to 22.26 and 22.25% respectively, and in the second season showed the highest number of branches / plant 13.5 and number of pods/ plant 14.12 Pod. The interaction between the varieties and shocking treatments were significant, as given in Aguadulce variety for 9 minutes in the first season gave the highest seeds yield was 4261.02 kg / ha, while in the second season Local variety showed the highest seeds yield was 4873 kg/ha in a period of 6 minutes shock also the interaction in the first season with 6-minute period of shock was significant only in the percentage of protein was 23.98 and 23.38% for the varieties Aguadulce and Local respectively, and protein yield of Local variety was 1110.28 kg / ha in the second season. In conclusion different varieties gave different responses to period of ES indicating that one period of ES could not be recommended for all varieties due to differences in response .
The present study showed that the branchial arch is characterized by the presence of
irregular black line along its length. This line is condensations of melanocytes . The branchial
arch bears two rows of gill rakers at its anterior (internal) side whereas its posterior (external)
side bears two rows of gill filaments. Histologically, the gill arch is composed of hyaline
cartilage surrounded by mixed bone ,which is covered by a mucous membrane. Its epithelium
contains mucous cells and taste buds, whereas its loose connective tissue contains blood
vessels and skeletal muscles. The histological structure of gill raker is similar to that of the
gill arch except the absence of cartilage and muscles .The present st
In this research, experimental and numerical studies were carried out to investigate the performance of encased glass-fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) beams under fire. The test specimens were divided into two peer groups to be tested under the effect of ambient and elevated temperatures. The first group was statically tested to investigate the monotonic behavior of the specimens. The second group was exposed to fire loading first and then statically tested to explore the residual behavior of the burned specimens. Adding shear connectors and web stiffeners to the GFRP beam was the main parameter in this investigation. Moreover, service loads were applied to the tested beams during the fire. Utilizing shear connectors, web stiffeners,

An experiment was conducted in a greenhouse - research station B - College of Agricultural Engineering Sciences, University of Baghdad, during the fall season of 2018 with the aim of propagating and initially studying the field performance of 18 and 20 potential potato lines derived from Rivera and Arizona cv. after in vitro exposure of nodal segments to different dosages of gamma rays (0, 10, 20, and 30 Gray) and EMS (0, 10, 20, and 30 mM). Each control cultivar and their derived lines were independently cultured in plastic bags according to the RCBD, with three replications. The results showed that the highest plant height and number of leaves were obtained from Arizona derived lines which gave 60.11 cm and 25.30 leaves.plant-1 in

An effective two-body density operator for point nucleon system folded with two-body correlation functions, which take account of the effect of the strong short range repulsion and the strong tensor force in the nucleon-nucleon forces, is produced and used to derive an explicit form for ground state two-body charge density distributions (2BCDD's) and elastic electron scattering form factors F (q) for 19F, 27Al and 25Mg nuclei. It is found that the inclusion of the two-body short range correlations (SRC) has the feature of reducing the central part of the 2BCDD's significantly and increasing the tail part of them slightly, i.e. it tends to increase the probability of transferring the protons from the central region of the nucleus towards
