Application of pesticides can have a negative impact on pollinating honey bees, Apis mellifera L., ranging from sublethal to lethal concentrations. Consequently, it is important to comprehend any possible impacts of pesticides. Herein, we evaluated the toxicity of specific pesticides (Sulfoxaflor, thiamethoxam, imidacloprid, and acetamiprid) on A. mellifera workers after exposure of 24, 48, 72, and 96 hrs under laboratory conditions. As a result, sulfoxaflor was considered the most toxic compound among the tested pesticides after 24-h of exposure. Further, acetamiprid was found least toxic pesticide. The same trend of toxicity on A. mellifera was observed after 48, 72, and 96 hrs of exposure. These results of the current investigation suggested that sulfoxaflor might be harmful to honey bee workers. This demonstrates the extraordinary sensitivity of local honey bee to routinely applied agricultural pesticides, which may have an impact on the colony level due to the extensive usage of these pesticides in Egypt.

The egg parasitoid Trichogramma was used in Qus, Qena Governorate, Egypt, to control lepidopteran sugarcane insect pests. The primary objective of this study was to identify the egg parasitoid, Trichogramma , by morphological and genetic approaches. Light microscope was used to examine the morphology of male and female adults and their measurements. Results showed that females were shorter than males in Trichogramma . Also, the external morphology of the antennae, wings, and male genitalia was recorded. The sequence of ITS2 of Trichogramma turkestanica was deposited in GenBank under the accession number of MW459187.1. Its nucleotide length was 434 bp. The nucleotide frequencies of adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T) were 19.8, 28.3, 26.3, and 25.6 %, respectively. The C+G content was 54.6, which was higher than the A+T content. The tested species can be identified as Trichogramma turkestanica through combined morphological and molecular methods

The objective of the current study was to isolate acid production bacteria (APB) from sewage wastewater-irrigated soil. The effect of Cd and Pb at levels of 0-1000 ppm with or without active carbon (AC) or biochar (BC) on the germination of corn seeds ( Zea mays L.), and seedlings fresh and dry weight were also examined in germination experiment. In addition, a greenhouse pot experiment was conducted to study the effects of BC, AC, and bacillus (BA) on plant growth of Zea mays in heavy metal contaminated soil. The results showed that the solubilization index for bacterial isolates of APB-1, APB-2, APB-3 and APB-4 was 2.50, 1.62, 2.22, and 3.14, respectively. It was observed that the growth parameters of seedlings decreased with increasing doses of Cd or Pb, showing negative effects of these metals on seeds germination, seedling length, and fresh and dry matter of seedlings. The toxicity effect of Cd appeared to be greater than Pb on the seedling’s growth. When applying AC or BC, however, the toxicity effect of toxic metals was reduced, which improved seedlings growth. In the greenhouse pot experiment, the application of AC, BC, or BA significantly increased the plant height and dry matter of maize shoots. It could be concluded that applying pyrolytic carbon-based materials or microbial inoculation enhanced plant growth and it may be due to improving soil quality and/or reducing heavy metals toxicity.
本研究旨在从污水灌溉土壤中分离产酸菌（APB）。在发芽实验中，加入或不加入活性碳（AC）或生物炭（BC）的 0-1000 ppm 水平的镉和铅对玉米种子（Zea mays L.）发芽的影响，以及幼苗的鲜重和干重。此外，还进行了温室盆栽实验，研究 BC、AC 和芽孢杆菌（BA）对重金属污染土壤中玉米植株生长的影响。结果表明，细菌分离物 APB-1、APB-2、APB-3 和 APB-4 的增溶指数分别为 2.50、1.62、2.22 和 3.14。据观察，随着镉或铅剂量的增加，幼苗的生长参数下降，表明这些金属对种子发芽、幼苗长度、幼苗的新鲜物质和干物质有负面影响。镉对秧苗生长的毒性影响似乎大于铅。但在施用 AC 或 BC 时，有毒金属的毒性效应降低，从而改善了秧苗的生长。在温室盆栽实验中，施用 AC、BC 或 BA 能显著增加玉米的株高和干物质。可以得出结论，施用热解碳基材料或微生物接种可促进植物生长，这可能是由于改善了土壤质量和/或降低了重金属毒性。

The research was carried out during two agricultural seasons 2020 and 2021 at the General Commission for Scientific Agricultural Research in Damascus. The objective was to study the response of two local varieties of onion plants to three chemical treatments, GA 3 (250, 500, and 1000 mg/l), clothes washing powder (5, 10, and 15 g/l), 2,4-D (0.1, 0.5, and 1 ml/l) to induce artificial male infertility. The experiment was designed as a randomized complete block design with four replicates . The results showed the efficiency of used chemicals in inducing male sterility in both varieties . The 1000 mg/L treatment of GA 3 was superior and significantly affected flowering parameters (inflorescence diameter, number of flowers per inflorescence, number of set flowers, percentage of flower setting) of both varieties Baladi red (10.03 cm, 1077.9 flower/inflorescence, 5 set flowers/inflorescence, and a percentage of 0.44%) and Salmon white (9.33 cm, 1084.2 flower/inflorescence, 5.1 set flowers/inflorescence, and a percentage of 0.47%), compared to the controls (7.67 cm, 695.1 flower/inflorescence, 495.78 set flower/inflorescence, 71.43%; 8.02 cm, 652.9 flower/ inflorescence, 545 set flower/inflorescence, and 82.76%, respectively). This was reflected positively in decreasing seed productivity per inflorescence to 0.009 g in Baladi red, 0.003 g in Salmoni white compared to the controls (8.86 g, 10.89 g). GA 3 can then be considered to have a selective effect on reducing or de-masculinize flowers, thus inducing male sterility and facilitating the production of F1 hybrid seeds without the need for back crossing within future breeding programs.

The experiment was executed over the consecutive seasons of 2020 and 2021 on the grape cultivar Ruby Seedless growing at the experimental orchard of Assiut University, Faculty of Agriculture. Thirty vines planted in clay soil were selected for this study. The selected vines were at the same vigour and age and at the beginning of the experiment and obtained the same horticultural practices. The selected vines were subjected to the following treatments: (Five vines/treatment), Pinching of the new shoots, Cluster thinning of the second cluster, girdling the arms, Pinching + Cluster thinning of the second cluster. Pinching + Thinning of the second cluster + Girdling the arms and Control. Total yield weight, cluster measurements, berry attributes as well as the quality of grape berries were determined. The obtained results suggested that all the treatments and their combinations were effective in enhancing productivity and berry quality of Ruby Seedless grape cultivar.

Alfalfa roots are infected with several fungal pathogens under salinity conditions. The effect of two salts of NaCl and CaCO 3 at three concentrations was studied in vitro. Mycelial growth and disease severity (DS%) were estimated to determine the relationship between (DS%) and water salinity. The highest effect on mycelial growth was detected at the electrical conductivity (EC W value) of 18.75 ds/m 2 which ranged from 8.80 and 9.44% with NaCl and CaCO 3 , respectively. Furthermore, Exserohilum sp. was the most affected by water salinity. With the different levels of water salinity, the DS% of alfalfa root rot increased gradually with the increased water salinity level. The highest level of water salinity with NaCl and CaCO 3 EC W value at 18.75 ds/m 2 ranged (42.76 and 43.53% severity for NaCl) and (44.04 and 44.42% severity for CaCO 3 , respectively). Moreover, with water salinity NaCl and CaCO 3, Fusarium sp. was the highest (DS%) with NaCl. Alfalfa root rot prediction model based on information gathered from the interaction of pathogen, water salinity, disease severity, and root and shoot length. It was found the relation between DS% with fungi, salt type, salt concentration, root and shoot length in the multiple regression model (r 2 =88.83%).
