A Study on Chemical Properties and Sensory Evaluation of Pomegranate Juices from Sulaimani Shelf Markets Compared to Local Natural Juice
type: item
description: This study was carried out in 2020, at the Sulaimani Polytechnic University, Kurdistan-Region, Iraq, about sensory and chemical characteristics of two local organic pomegranate juice (Salakhany) with comparison between four samples of shelf markets. Then, one of the sample was freshly consumed, and another was pasteurized juices at 63 0C for 30 minutes. The other samples of pomegranate juices were presented commercially on the market and labeled such as (OC, OS, IR, IT, IS). The fresh pomegranate juices (fresh1 and fresh2) and two commercial pomegranate juice (OC and IS) have higher pH value (4.027, 4.633, 4.037 and 4.097), respectively. Total anthocyanin contents were higher in the IR juice compared to fresh1, fresh2, OC, OS, IT and IS juices. Also, the highest values of Gallic acid (28.100 mg/100 ml) was in OS, and the lowest rate of Caffeic acid was in Fresh2 (0.030 mg/100ml), and the glucose is the highest for (IT) sample (0.120 mg/100 ml), while glucose is the lowest level in sample (OC), which is (0.004 mg/100ml). The treatment (Fresh1) had a higher score when it was compared to the other treatments. Thus, this work will assist consumers in choosing a better pomegranate juice, and also, it will help them to know which one has a better compound.

Comparing the Responsibility of Some Pretreatment Types of Potato (Solanum tuberosum) to Reduce Acrylamide Formation
type: item
description: Acrylamide is a colorless, odorless, crystalline compound that is considered to be a genetic and reproductive toxin, and long-term consumption may cause damage in the nervous system. This research has studied the affect of pretreatment of potato slices with immersion solutions including (2% citric acid, 2% baker yeast, distal water, 100 units glucose oxidase and 2% acetic acid) to reduce AA content of fried potato slices. The results have showed some differences among the types of potato in their response to immersion solutions. Except acetic acid, Iraqi type had the minimum response ranging from 5.66 to 54.06% compared with Syrian type from 70.10 to 93.89% and Iranian from 7.97 to 69.95%. Citric acid was the effective immersion solution in decreasing AA which ranged from 54.06 % for Iraqi potato to 93.89% for Syrian type, while the AA reducing range of yeast solution was from 13.08 to 91.79% and of glucose oxidase from 5.66 to 82.97%. Distilled water increased AA formation in Iraqi type up to 44.91%, but decreased AA formation about 70.10% and 33.50% of Syrian and Iranian types respectively compared with control. This phenomenon might be attributed to the rate of equilibrium between exudation of soluble components and reconfiguration of them. Acetic acid oppositely behaved compared with most other immersion solutions since it highly increased the AA s that may be due to the longtime of immersion compared to most researches which used some minutes of steeping. However, this finding may be a key for more detailed researches

type: item
description: A field experiment was carried out in the fields of the College of Agricultural Engineering Sciences - University of Baghdad for the seasons 2018-2019 and 2019-2020. A randomized complete block design (RCBD) was used in a split plot design with three replications for the two seasons. Eight genotypes of bread wheat and durum wheat add in the aim : molecular work were planted individually to test their ability to tolerance moisture stress, the genotypes occupied the secondary plots, and moisture depletion levels were 50, 70 and 90% of the ready water main plots. The results showed that reducing the moisture depletion to 50% of the ready water caused an increase in most of the yield components, as it was superior in giving the highest mean number of spikes (26.67 and 23.21 spike plant-1), the number of grains per spike (77.67 and 73.00 grain spike-1), and the highest weight of 1000 grains (44.46 and 43.42 gm) and the biological yield (82.61 and 78.33 gm plant-1), and this confirms the improvement of the photosynthetic system ability, as it gave the highest mean grain yield (43.42 and 38.76 gm plant-1). Plants grown under this moisture level were distinguished in increasing their efficiency in CO2 assimilation, as it gave the highest mean harvest index (53.33 and 46.23%) for both years respectively. The two genotypes Um- Rabee and Al-Noor were superior in their ability to tolerance different levels of moisture depletion, and represented by giving the highest means in the number of spikes (23.00, 23.22 , 21.44 and 21.00 spike plant-1) and the number of grains in a spike (63.00, 63.34, 69.90 and 67.90), and the superiority of Um- Rabee in giving the highest mean weight of 1000 grains (38.23 and 40.04 gm), and this shows the ability of this composition to give the highest yield of grains (40.46, 40.67, 34.61 and 33.94 gm plant-1) for the two genotypes respectively. The high levels of moisture depletion led to the high levels of gene expression in the drought-tolerant NAC, …

type: item
description: This study was conducted from November 1st to June 1st, 2023, inside the wooden canopy of the Horticulture and Landscape Architecture Department, College of Agriculture and Forestry, University of Mosul. The objective of the study was to assess how two varieties of Hyacinthus orientalis L., called "Carnegie" with white flowers and "Woodstock" with purple flowers, responded to three treatments of Optimus-plus fertilizer (0, 1.5, 3) ml L-1, as well as three treatments of salicylic acid (0, 150, 300) mg. L-1, applied to the vegetative system three times. A randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replicates and eight plants per treatment was employed in the factorial experiment's implementation within the split plot. The results indicated the following: *The white variety (Carnegie) recorded the greatest rates in all of the studied characteristics; plant height, number of leaves, dry weight of leaves, and leaf area. * Spraying the plants with the organic fertilizer Optimum Plus at a concentration of 3 ml L-1 had a significant influence on obtaining the highest values in all of the studies assessed. * Salicylic acid spraying at a dosage of 300 mg L-1 had the highest significant values in all of the characteristics that were assessed. * The results of the triple interactions between the study factors indicated that the highest significant values for plant height, number of leaves, and leaf area were obtained when the plants (Carnegie white) were sprayed with Optimum-Plus, an organic fertilizer, at a concentration of 3 ml L-1, in addition to 300 mg L-1 of salicylic acid. * Data on the triple interactions between the study factors revealed that spraying purple (woodstock) plants with Optimum-Plus fertilizer at a concentration of 2 ml L-1 combined with spraying with salicylic acid at a concentration of 300 mg L-1 recorded the highest significant values for leaf length, leaves number, leaf area, and leaf dry weight. in split plot)

Efficiency of algae Sprulina platensis the and the aqueous extract of Moringa oleifera seeds and leaves to induce ten cultivars of cucumber plants against the Cucumovirus Cucumber Mosaic Virus (CMV)
type: item
description: This study is aimed to identify the effect of the locally grown algae Spirulina platensis in the form of an biological in vitro preparation on Cucumber Mosaic Virus (CMV) and the effect of Moringa leaf extract M. oleifera by evaluating some resistance parameters, which included measuring the infection ratio, its severity, the activity of the peroxidase enzyme, and the amount of phenols. This study was conducted in the research station of the College of Agriculture / University of Tikrit. CMV was initially diagnosed using immune strip assay, and the diagnosis was further enhanced by using Next Generation Sequence (NGS) modern technology to detect the complete genome of the virus strain. The infection rate was 100% in the control treatment, While lower infection rate for both treatments of algae S. platensis and M. oleifera, was 31% for each of them. As for the effect of the two treatments on the severity of infection, it was the lowest in the Ghazeer cultivar for both treatments of algae S. platensis and M. oleifera, reaching 40% compared with others of the cultivars which differed significantly, The highest infection rate 80% was recorded in the two treatments of S. platensis and M. oleifera for Jade cultivar compared with control reached 100%. The results of the peroxidase enzyme measurement showed the highest value for the Ghazeer variety for the two treatments used S. platensis and the M.oleifera which amounted to 3.1 units/mg protein of the root system and for the two treatments used which are the algae S. platensis and the M. oleifera. The rate of total phenols increased to 8.9 mg/g wet weight in treatment S. platensis for the Ghazeer variety while M.oleifera reached 7.9 mg/g wet weight compared the control treatment witch reached 4.6 mg/g wet weight. The results of the varieties used in this study showed a significant difference and the variety the Ghazeer showed superiority in tolerating infection, While the Jade variety was the most sensitive variety to infe…
