This present investigation was carried out at Food Legumes Department, Sakha Agricultural Research Station, Agriculture Research Center, Egypt, in summer 2016 and 2017 seasons. Six parental genotypes of soybean were used in this study. In 2016, the Six soybean genotypes were used as parents in half diallel cross mating design. In the second season, the experimental were conducted to evaluate the yield potential and agronomic performance of the obtained F1's hybrids of the fifteen crosses compared with their parents. The results could be summarized as follows: Mean squares for genotypes, General and specific combining ability were highly significant for all the studied traits. The parental line L75-6648 was the best of tested parent in flowering and maturity dates. Also, the crosses Giza111 X Giza21 and L75-6648 X Giza21 , exhibited the lowest mean values for these traits. The parental L75-6648 as well as the crosses L75-6648 X Giza111 and Toano X Giza111, were taller in plant height than their parental means. For number of pods and seeds per plant, the parents Giza111 and Giza21 as well as the crosses Pershing X Giza111 and Holladay X Giza21 gave the highest values for number of pods and seeds per plant. For seed yield per plant, the two parents, Giza21 and Giza111 gave the highest values of this trait. The crosses Pershing X Giza111, Toano X Giza111, Holladay X Giza21 and Giza111X Giza21 gave the highest values for seed yield/plant.

T. M.
Abou Sen
The present study was carried out at Sakha farm, Sakha Agricultural Research Station (SARS), Kafr El-Sheikh, Egypt, during the three summer seasons of 2017, 2018 and 2019. Four crosses of soybean, each with six populations (P1, P2, F1, Bc1, Bc2 and F2) were tested for yield and some growth attributes. The results showed that: Over dominance was observed for flowering date in crosses I and II, for maturity date and plant height in cross II and seed yield per plant in all crosses, while partial dominance was observed for the remaining crosses for most traits. Significant negative heterosis were detected for flowering date for mid-parent in the first cross, significant positive heterotic effects were detected for other traits. The additive effect (a) was highly significant in positive or negative direction in all crosses for all traits, except in the four crosses for number of seeds per pod and 100 seed weight, crosses I and II for flowering date. Additive x additive types of gene action were found to be significant for most traits of all crosses, also additive x dominance and dominance x dominance types of gene effects were found to be significant for most traits. High narrow sense heritability values were obtained for plant height and number of seeds per pod in the first cross. While, the lowest estimates was resulted for number of seeds per pod in the second cross, number of branches per plant in the first cross and seed yield per plant in the fourth cross.

Effect of Magnetic Field Treatments on Seedling Growth Characteristics of Some Pea (Pisum sativum) Genotypes
Hero
Hamakareem
In this study, the effects of exposing pre-sown pea seeds to magnetic fields on plant growth parameters have been studied under field conditions. Seeds from five different varieties (Javor, Desier, Mamoth, Oregon Sugar Pod, and Purple Pod) were batch exposed to static magnetic fields for 15, 30, and 45 minutes. Then, the magnetically treated seeds were sown in plastic cups and watered under running water. After 30 days of germination, three plants were marked for the collection of morphological data, different plant growth parameters were tested based on normal seedlings, such as root length, shoot length, fresh root weight, dry weight root and shoot dry weight. The results obtained indicated that the fresh weight of the root, the fresh weight of the shoot and the dry weight of the shoot for the varieties were significantly affected by the time of exposure to the magnetic field, as the duration of the magnetic fields increased. All seeds pretreated by magnetic field showed higher root weight, fresh shoot and dry weight compared to the control condition, and the highest root weight and fresh shoot was reported by treating seeds for 45 minutes under magnetic field conditions. However, the highest shoot dry weight was reported by seed treatment for 30 min. The reports indicated that the application of magnetic fields improved the growth characteristics of the treated group compared to the unexposed group.

Influence of Effective Micro-Organisms (EM) and some Antioxidant on Storability and Fruit Quality of Mandarin under Cold Storage Conditions
M. S.
Aboryia
To assess the influence of both effective microorganisms and some antioxidants as post-harvest coating treatments on storability and fruit characteristics of Mandarin cv. Balady. Treatments applied significantly showed a reduction pattern of their fruit weight losses, decay percentage, and total losses. The combined treatments of both effective microorganisms (EM) and antioxidants were the most effective in that reduction. Also, fruit quality parameters were still maintained their quality after 45 days of storage and delayed the senescence of fruits. A gradual increase in TSS was shown. Moreover, some physiological parameters, chilling injury, and ion leakage showed a similar pattern, that highly significant values were shown on the studied fruits. Also, the malondialdehyde (MDA) content can be applied as an indicator of lipid peroxidation (LP) to measure the storability of tested fruits. The effect of antioxidants and effective micro-organisms have to be in an increasing pattern in all applied treatments that are used after 45 days of storage; the highest concentration of H2O2 was observed in control ones, the lowest content was observed at combined treatment, which may reflect the critical roles in reducing reactive oxygen species and mitigation of chilling injury. In addition to total phenol content were decreased significantly, as the obtained results showed a positive relationship among ascorbic acid and loss of phenolics. After 15 days of storage higher percentage of antioxidant capacity (DPPH) was observed, then a gradual decrease was recorded in fruit treated with combined treatment. Both treatments of antioxidant and effective microorganisms significantly affected the levels of antioxidant enzymes i.e catalase activity (CAT) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX). Therefore, the combined treatment may be the best treatment that maintaining the quality of stored fruit of Balady mandarin.

Phaseolus vulgaris L. are salt-sensitive plants in all growth phases. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the benefit impacts of magnetized water (MW) alone or combined with soil amendment by agricultural gypsum and plant inoculation with vesicular arbuscular micorrhyzal fungi (AMF) on growth (plant height, dry weight and leaf area), relative water content (RWC%), water retention capacity (WRC), salt tolerance index (STI%), foliage mineral contents (N, P, K, Ca and Na), (K++Ca2+)/Na+ ratio and yield components (number of pods/plant, number of seeds/pod, 100seeds weight, seed yield/feddan and harvest index% ) of dry bean cv. Nebraska grown under salinity conditions. The study was conducted in Dakahlia Governorate at the northeastern of the Delta Egypt during summer seasons of 2019 and 2020. A split plot design with three replicates was used. Salinity significantly reduced all traits, particularly seed yield (around 53.9% losses), except Na%. Magnetized water (MW) and soil amendments sole or in combination had a tendency to increase all studied parameters, except Na%. Moreover, a negative relationship was observed between foliage Na content and seed yield, whereas a positive one was observed between salt tolerance index% and (K++Ca2+)/Na+ ratio which were more reliable in selection criterion in bean plant. Overall, the treatment of magnetized water + gypsum + micorrhyzae is a very important management tool in common bean production in the clay and intermediate salinity soils of northern Delta of Egypt.

Genedy
The objective of this study was to identify tolerant and susceptible genotypes of bread wheat under different irrigation treatments and determine the type of gene action and some genetic parameters in three bread wheat crosses; (Line 1 × Line 2), (Line1 × Giza 171) and (Misr 2 × Line 3) under normal irrigation and water stress treatments. Genetic materials included six populations (P1, P2, F1, F2, BC1 and BC2) for each cross. Positive and high significant values for heterotic effects relative to the mid- parent of grain yield were found for the second (Line1 × Giza 171) and third cross (Misr 2 × Line 3) under both irrigation treatments, while positive values heterosis for better parent detected for the third cross under both irrigation treatments. Non-allelic interaction was found for all studied characters in all the crosses under both irrigation treatments. Dominance effects were greater than the additive gene effect. Dominance × dominance gene interaction was higher in magnitude than additive × additive and additive × dominance for most characters under both irrigation treatments, indicating that these characters greatly affected by dominance and non-allelic interactions. Heritability in the broad sense was high for all the studied characters in three crosses under both irrigation treatments, while narrow sense heritability estimates were moderate to high for all the studied characters under both irrigation treatments. In general, the highest values of grain yield/plant were in the third cross (Misr2 × Line 3) under both irrigation treatments, based on tolerance index (Line 1) and (Line 2) are the most tolerant for water stress and the first cross (Line1 × Line2) was the most one for water stress tolerant, so this cross is recommended under water stress conditions.

The current investigation was carried out at Vegetables Research Station of Olericulture and Floriculture Dept., Faculty Agric., Mansoura Univ., Egypt, during the season of 2018 and 2019, to study the effect of irrigation water type (magnetized and non-magnetized water), four inorganic NPK fertilizer rates (50, 75, 100 and 125 kg/fed) and their interactions on growth and field performance of gladiolus plant spikes and corms (cv. Rose Supreme) cultured under the conditions of silty loam soil with developed furrow irrigation system. The experiment was laid out as strip-plot design with three replicates. The obtained data of this study obviously indicated that, all tested parameters such as vegetative growth characters (shoots and leaves number/plant, …), leaves chemical composition (N, P, K, …), flowering characteristics (spike number, length and fresh weight, …) and corm yield and its components (corm number, fresh weight and diameter, …) had significantly been influenced with irrigation water type, NPK fertilizer rates and their interaction. Regarding the effect of irrigation water type, the magnetized water gave the maximum values for most forecited parameters, except vegetative growth parameters, characters of spike number and fresh weight and corm diameter as compared with the non-magnetized one. Concerning the impact of NPK fertilizer rate, the rate of 125 kg fed-1 recorded significant values for all mentioned parameters compared with 50 kg fed-1 of fertilizer rate. Respecting the influence of interaction treatments, the combination treatment between magnetized water and NPK fertilizer rate at 125 kg fed-1 had significant effects on all aforementioned studied parameters as compared with interaction treatment between non-magnetized water and 50 kg fed-1 of fertilizer rate, therefore, it could be recommended that this interaction treatment is the best one for obtaining high characters of gladiolus growth and field performance of plants under similar research conditions.

Two field experiments were conducted at the Experimental Farm of Sakha Agricultural Research Station, Kafr EL Sheikh, Egypt during 2018 and 2019 rice growing seasons, to study the effect of three sowing dates viz; April 20th, May 5th and May 20th, three seedling ages namely; 20, 30 and 40 days and male rows direction; one and two directions on out crossing of hybrid rice seed production of the CMS line IR69625A crossed by the male line Giza 178R. Split-split plot design with three replications was used. The main plots were devoted to the sowing dates, while the seedling ages were arranged in the sub plots and male rows direction were arranged in the sub-sub plots. The results showed that the interaction between sowing dates and seedling ages had a significant effect on number of days to 50% heading, plant height (cm), panicle length (cm) and panicle exertion (%), however, these traits didn't significantly affected by male rows direction. On the other hand, panicle weight (g), number of filled grains panicle-1, seed set (%), harvest index (%) and seed yield (t ha-1) were significantly affected by sowing dates, seedling ages and male rows direction. The interactions among sowing dates, seedling ages and male rows direction had highly significant effect on seed yield. The highest values of seed yields were obtained when rice plants were sowing on April, 20 with seedling age 20 days in two rows direction during 2018 and 2019 seasons.

This research was carried out at the College of Agricultural Engineering Sciences, University of Sulaimani. This study was applied to determine the effect of some extracts of Glycyrrhiza glabra and Ammi majus and different types of soil on seed germination, seedling growth and phytochemical contents as well as fresh and dry weights of Moringa olefera. The significant effects of some extracts were observed on the studied parameters of the moringa plant. The highest germination percentage of moringa recorded by the seeds treated with 10 g/L of Ammi majus extract. The greatest germination rate of moringa seeds (81.3) exhibited at control treatments of both extracts. The highest stem elongation was demonstrated by 5 g/L G. glabra and pet moss media. The maximum score of stem length of moringa (107.33 and 97.33 cm) was achieved from the combination 10 g/L G. glabra and A. majus with peat moss media, whereas the lowest value (44.33 cm) was stated by the interaction of control and peat moss. In addition, the greatest value of stem diameter (5.75 cm) was noticed by the interaction pet moss and 10 g/L A. majus. The number of leaf in moringa showed the maximum score when the seeds treated by 5 g/l G. glabra, peat moss and their combination. Whereas, the root number characteristic of moringa revealed the maximum values when the seeds treated by 5g/l G.glabra (23.44), pet moss (25.67 ) and its combination (32). The best results of dry biomass weight including shoots and leave were achieved in 5,10 g/L G. glabra and A. majus with peat moss combination, High value of the TPC, TFC and antioxidant – DPPH (3.955, 0.171 and 86.197, respectively) recorded by the interaction of 10 g/L A. majus with loam and significantly superior on other treatment. These results confirm the effectiveness of aqueous extracts of different plant and media cultures on seed germination, plant growth and phytochemical content of M. olefera.
