Seven inbred lines of corn (Zea mays L. ) were studied in line × tester analysis , by using a randomized complete block design with two replications . Data were recorded on yield and its components to determine the nature of combining effects and estimate the components of variance and genetic parameters. The value of specific combining ability variance was more than the general combining ability variance for all triats, indicating the importance of non – additive gene action. The narrow sense heritability ranged from 6.41% for number of kernel/ row to 26.09% for seed index. The estimates of average degree of dominance were more than one for all characteristics , which indicate that there is over dominance. Heterosis, measured as departure of from best parent value were observed for most of the characters.

Stored olive fruit effect on oil properties was studied by taking two samples during coloration of 30Kg each . The oil from first sample was extracted immediately , while the other sample was stored in cold common storage at (7-10 0c) with RH (85-90%) for 30 days .Stroing olive oil fruits for (30) days significantly reduced the quality due to increasing of the saturated fatty acids percentage (mercitic, palmatic and stearic ) by 39.38 , 26.56 and 30.64% respectively and reduction of unsaturated fatty acids percentage (palmitulic , olic , linolic acid) by ( 14.86 , 5.31 and 18.21% ) as a result of oxidation and hydrolization during the storage period .The acidity of the stored fruits significantly increased up to (8.35%) compard to (0.78%) in the fresh fruits .The experimental results showed significant decreases in ioden number in stored fruit to (73.25) and that encouraged the growth of the fungi that causes enzymatic hydrolysis and spoilage of the fruit .

The research aims at finding out the efficiency level of air - control in Iraq in order to control the as dub bug of date palrn for the year 2000 from the opinions of the officials in the central programme of control , and date palm grower through the comparison between the opinions of date palm growers and officials about the efficiency level of air - control for the year 2000 and the date which the air control occurred and the best time and way for control and the control by using substitutional methods .The research was carried out in Baghdad Governorate in all its agricultural offices except Abu - Ghreb and Wahda offices because they were not included in air control . The community of the research included the officials of the central programme for air control ,who were 10 , while the community of palm growers were about 1817 farmers .A random and ranked sample was taken in 10% from the growers of 183 growers . The data was collected through a questionnaire by and personal interviews .The results have shown no statistical differences among the date palms growers and officials opinions and the central programme of air control . The grower's opinions agree with the official's opinions on air control efficiency for the year 2000 .The research recommends establishing an instructional meeting specialized in dubas bug control for both officials and palm growers by the General for Instructional and Agricultural cooperation in accordance with Direction to the general committee for plant protection .Injecting date palm trunks with low concentration of actara material solution is recommended by this research instead of using the aircraft spraying to control contamination by chemical pesticides to protect the countryside environment from poisoning and to protect the bio – enemies of the pests .

A losses problem of wheat crop is the important and dangerous economical problem in Iraq. This study was made to estimate and analyze percentages and values of wheat losses due to mechanical Harvest for two classes (Maxibac and Abugraib) and two varieties of combine (Ferguson and class) cutting and threshing units in Al - Mashru region which is about (65) km south of Baghdad for the season 2000 – 2001.The study included many locations , randomized samples reaches (180) by Randomized complete Block Design sixty samples before the combines entered the farm. (120) sample during the mechanical harvest operation. Samples were collected with wooden frames in (1) m2 area. After collecting the samples were weight and separated according to the plant class firstly and the kind of combine secondly.The result showed an increasing in losses quantity into cutting unit more than threshing unit for the two classes and kinds of combines, loose quantity was (34.3) kg / don in cutting unit for the Ferguson combine distributed as (21.4) kg / don for Maxibac class and (12.9) kg / don for Abugraib class. However this quantity was (29.7) kg / don in threshing unit distributed as (18.2) kg / don for Maxibac class and (11.5) kg / don for Abugraib class.The class combine loss quantity reaches in cutting unit (38.4) kg/don distributed as (23.7) kg / don for Maxibac class and (14.7) kg / don for Abugraib class, Hence the loss quantity in threshing unit was (33.7) kg/don distributed as (19.4) kg / don for Maxibac class and (14.3) kg / don for Abugraib class for the same combine.Also it appears that the Abugraib class decreased losses compared with Maxibac class . Separating samples in in terms of the kind of combine used shows that Ferguson combine reduced losses quantity more than Class combine. In the other hand Abugraib class is more significant than Maxibac class in getting less losses of wheat. Ferguson is more significant than class combine in getting less losses of wheat in cutting and threshing units.The study show that total losses percentage due to mechanic harvest is (24.93 %). The total waste value resulting from these losses was (20415) millions Iraqi dinars according to selling and purchasing price of our country for wheat crop for the season mentioned above . The total of waste quantity was (8713) tones, the financial losses were (319000) Iraqi dinars per donum.
