This study is conducted in Dairy Cattle Farm and the Physiology Laboratory,
College of Agriculture, Department of Animals Resources, Abu-Ghraib and also in a
Laboratory dealing with the analysis of molecular genetic for the period 1/11/2013 to
7/11/2014. The objective to this study is to identify the genotypes for transferrin gene
(Tf) and the relationship among these genotypes with some growth and production of
54 Holstein cows and 39 progeny. The percentage of genotype distribution for thetransferring gene in sample of studied cows is 25.93 , 55.55 and 18.52 % for the genotypes
TT, TC and CC respectively and the differences between these percentages are
highly significant and the effect of the genotypes of the transferrin gene on the total
milk production and the lactation period is significant (P<0.05) while the cows with
TC genotype give the highest total milk production (2149.03 ± 295.05 kg/season)
with a lactation period of 170.92 ± 18.59 days. The results of the current also study
show that the components of the studied milk (fat, lactose, non-fatty soluble solids)
are influenced significantly (P<0.05) by the differences between the genotype of the
transferrin gene, while the percentage of the protein and ash in the milk is not influenced
by the genotype. The body weight at birth is significantly influenced by the
genotypes of the transferring gene and alleles frequencies for alleles (T) is 0.54 while
the alleles frequencies for alleles (C) is 0.46 according to the analysis of transferrin
gene (Tf) in this study. The application of this study in bigger samples of animals for
many productivity seasons may be gave more accurate results for applying replacement
and culling strategies.

The present study was aimed to improve rheological properties of
weak wheat flour by treating with a mixture of oxidizing, binding and
polysaccharide hydrolyzing enzymes. At the beginning, the oxidizing and
binding enzymes were individually added to the flour using different concentrations. Maximum resistance of extension was obtained by the concentrations of 5, 83.3 and 0.133 unit/100gm of flour for glucose oxidase,
peroxidase and transglutaminase, respectively. These enzymes exhibited
no effect on starch gelation and maximum viscosity temperatures.
Treatment of the flour with a mixture of the above mentioned concentrations of enzymes resulted in decreased extensibiliy accompanied with a
large increase in extension resistance (942 B.U.) as compared to the control sample (420 B.U.). In order to oppose this effect, xylanase (13.7
unit/100 gm flour) was added. This treatment resulted in retardation of
dough properties and increasing its viscosity. Extensograph area had decreased to 49 cm2 which was very low and unsuitable for loaf production. To decease this effect, the concentrations of the four enzymes were
decreased to 1, 50, 0.033 and 10.3 unit/100gm flour, respectively. Resistance was dropped to 525 B.U. and extensibility to 146 mm. The addition of amylase (86.7 unit/100 gm flour) resulted in improving rheological properties of the dough. Viscosity had raised to 598 B.U. Resistance
and extensibility became 506 B.U. and 157 mm, respectively. Handling
of the dough became easy. The last treatment was considered to be the
best for improving rheological properties of the flour

The cucumber crop Is consider an important crop of the vegetable crops in Iraq,
and is grown for domestic consumption, either in the form of small fruits green eaten
fresh or in the form of fruits pickled, and although of important as food, but the crop
is facing many problems related to the production and marketing efficiency in Iraq,
Therefore must Interests conducting more studies relating to production and marketing problems for this crop, Babil province was chosen as a model applied to this
study the relative importance of the area and production, the study aimed to finding
cucumber productive efficiency, and measure the size that maximizes profit , and
measuring marketing efficiency of crop, the study found that the output of the crop
size in the period which equal the average cost per unit of output has reached 5.3 tons
/ acre, and production that achieves size maximizes profits for farmers is 7.4 tons /
donum, the marketing efficiency of crop under consideration amounted to about
36.4% which is low and indicates a the low-level of marketing performance of the
crop and lacks of modern marketing arts

This study was conducted at the private poultry farm in Jbala at north of Babylon
during the period from 1/11/2015 to 12/12/2015. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of using greenhouse for rearing broilers. Two kinds of poultry halls
were used in this study, the first one was greenhouse hall presented T1 treatment and
the second was traditicnal poultry hall represented T2 treatment. A total of 900 Ross
308 broilers chicks were used in each treatment. At each hall were selected three locations at the beginning, middle, and the end of hall. These locations presented the
replicates of each treatment. The area of each location was 30m2
. The chicks were
randomly distributed into the replicates. Each replicate had 300 chicks and each hall
had 1800 chicks. The fed was free at all period of the study and the light program was
24 hours. The results refer to no significant effects between greenhouse hall and regular hall on body weight, feed intake, weight gain, feed conversion ratio and percentages of mortality.

Field experiment were carried out to investigate the effectiveness of some insecticides Actara (Thiamethoxam), Avaunt(Indoxacarb) and Karate(Lambda cyhalothrin)
and Bio-Agent Trichoderma harizanium against larvae and adult stages of Radish
beetle Colaphellus apicalis Mentr (Coleoptera Chrysomelidae ).The results showed
that Avaunt and Actara were the best effective and gave mortality of larvae 90.42 and
88.51%, respectively .while Karate gave 80.85.% mortality of larvae. The results
showed almost similar effect of Avaunt and Actara against adult and gave mortality
of adult 83.84and 79.4%, respectively whereas Karate gave 77.33%.The study also
showed that spore suspension of Trichoderma harzianum caused a high mortality
against larvae and adult stages of Colaphellus apicalis Mentr reached 61.22and 53.08%, respectively. When used at concentration 1×1012 after seven day from spraying. The results reveal that the mortality increased when exposure period was increased.
