Soil fertility is one of the major limiting factors for crop’s productivity in Egypt and the world in general. Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) has a great importance as a non-polluting and a cost-effective way to improve soil fertility through supplying N2 to different agricultural systems. Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is one of the most efficient nitrogen-fixing legumes that can meet all of their N needs through BNF. Therefore, understanding the impact of rhizobial inoculation and contrasting soil rhizobia on nodulation and N2 fixation in faba bean is crucial to optimize the crop yield, particularly under low fertility soil conditions. The efficiency of Rhizobium leguminosarum in enhancing nitrogen fixation and nutrient uptake in Faba bean and improving soil fertility. the field experiment were carried out at privet farm at tour city South Sinai Governorate, during the two consecutive winter seasons of 2018/2019 and 2019/2020. The experiments were conducted to study the effect of Rhizobium leguminosarum inoculation, organic manure, soil amendment i.e., 0; 25; 30 and 35m3/fed., and four rates of sulfur application i.e., 0; 100; 150 and 200 kg/fed., on growth, productivity, nodulation, soil microbial counts, enzymatic activities, soil total N, P, K, Fe, Zn and Mn, soil chemical properties (pH and EC) and Nitrogen balance of broad bean, Aspany F1 cv. grown under sandy soil conditions. Results revealed that organic manure at the rate of 30m3/fed which is superior significantly plant yield and total yield (ton/fed) followed by organic manure at the rate of 35m3/fed. No significant differences occurred between these two organic treatments in both seasons. Sulfur amendment at the rate of 200 kg/fed followed by the rate of 150 kg/fed had the highest values and significant increases on plant weight; number of branches/plant; plant yield; total yield (ton/fed), there are no significant differences between both treatments in both growing seasons. While, each of the study factors had an individual significant effect on total microbial counts, enzymatic activities (Dehydrogenase and Nitrogenase), nodule No., nodule N%, nodule dry weigh, soil total nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, Fe, Zn and Mn, soil chemical properties (pH and EC) and Nitrogen balance. But combined treatment organic manure 35m3/fed + sulfur at the rate of 200 kg/fed with rhizobial inoculation gave highest values on all most traits in both seasons.

Pickles are considered as high salt food mainly due to the presence of high sodium ions added for taste and preservation purposes. This high amount will increase the risk of hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. In this study, an attempt was done to replace Sodium chloride (NaCl) by salt replacer which is potassium chloride (KCl) in Armenian cucumber pickles. Nine treatments were done with different salts percentages with and without chili pepper and garlic. All treatments were incubated at room temperature for 4 weeks then pH measurement, sensory analysis, and microbial analysis were performed. The pH values decreased with incubation and the lowest pH was 3.53±0.03 for Treatment 4 (75% KCl, 25%NaCl). Treatment 4 showed the highest reduction in both total plate count and yeast count with 78.5±3.0×10 CFU/ml and 73.0±3.0×10 CFU/ml respectively. There were virtually undetectable changes in taste up to 70% KCl (Treatment 6) substitution compared to Treatment 1(100% NaCl) based on the triangle test results. Based on 5-point hedonic scale, the lowest scores for taste were for Treatment 5 (100% KCl) with 2.70±0.40 but they were higher in the samples that contain chili pepper, while the other treatments showed insignificant differences compared to Treatment 1.The different treatments did not show any significant changes with respect to texture based on 5-point hedonic scale except the samples that contain both garlic and chili pepper which showed the lowest scores for taste and texture.

Background: Early childhood caries (ECC) is a common chronic disease affecting young children and is considered a significant public health problem, it can be diagnosed in severe cases as severe early childhood caries (S-ECC). Children with S-ECC often suffer from pain, dietary changes, sleep disorders and behavioral changes. Methods: 1000 Egyptian children aged 3-6 years, including 100 children having complete blood count records participated in this case control study. Children were selected as 500 caries free and 500 with severe early childhood caries. Height and weight were measured for each child. Children who had CBC analysis for medical reason, Hb level was recorded. Results: there was insignificant difference between caries free and S-ECC groups regarding all BMI categories (P > 0.05). Children with low Hb levels (anemic) were significantly higher in S-ECC group than their caries free peers (P < 0.05). Conclusions: there was insignificant correlation between caries distribution and BMI, although there was a negative correlation between caries status and Hb level, indicating that S- ECC has a negative effect on child general health.

Differences is socio-demographic and economic sectors remain are somehow considered as the stumbling block to the sustainable development. This paper makes an attempt to explore the situation of rural-urban differentials to find a clear picture in formulating new policies and programmes regarding overall socioeconomic development of Bangladesh. The data of this study was mainly collected from the Report on Bangladesh Sample Vital Statistics (SVRS) of different years published by Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS). It is found that, despite government initiatives to reduce rural-urban disparity in the context of development, the inequality between rural and urban areas persists and challenges continue to evolve. The results of this study should contribute to the creation of innovative and effective policies and programmes that can improve the status of rural-urban differentials in Bangladesh. Findings of this study need to be scientifically utilised in developing suitable programmes addressing the causes of rural-urban differentials in Bangladesh. Otherwise, the aim of comprehensive and sustainable development may remain elusive.

This study was conducted on an open field farm in El-Salheya El-Gedida, Sharqia Governorate, Egypt, for two successive seasons 2016 and 2017. As an attempt for water conservation in watermelon cultivation and maximization the irrigation water use efficiency by improving the old unused method of watermelon production in Egypt in addition to, using watermelon grafting on some tolerant rootstocks to water stress. This experiment consisted of 15 treatments (3 cultivation approach of watermelon (rainfed (traditional trenches without irrigation), beds (rows) with drip irrigation according calculated irrigation requirement by CLIMWAT 2.0 and CROPWAT 8.0 software (2320.7m) and renovated method (Trenches with drip by 40% from calculated irrigated requirements (928.28m) × 5 grafting treatments (4 rootstocks bottle gourd and Emphasis hybrid F1 (Lagenaria siceraria), Shintosa F1 hybrid and Ferro RZ F1 hybrid (Cucurbita maxima × C. moschata) and Aswan F1without grafting). The experiment layout was a factorial in strip plot with randomized complete blocks design with three replicates. Planting methods were set in the main strip plot whereas the grafting treatments were set randomly in sub plot. This study was succeeded in producing high yield quantities of watermelon under the conditions of water regime (40%) that were almost equal with the yield under the complete water supply requirements conditions (100%). This result was evidently from the absence of significant differences between the average yield of the two methods, which was significantly higher than the average yield of the traditional trenching method (without irrigation). The renovated trenches improved the quality characteristics of watermelon fruits compared with the traditional trench yield. Grafting on different rootstocks improved all vegetative growth traits and led to an enhancement in the yield components, this was obviously in the significant increase in the vegetative growth values, which reflected by dependency on the yield quantity and quality. The use of both trenches method equipped with the drip irrigation system with grafting on tolerant rootstocks to water shortage led to an increase in the irrigation water use efficiency (IWUS), as it led to doubling the values of (IWUS) compared to the beds with drip irrigation according the calculated water requirements by this Software. In Conclusion, to get the highest yield and quality with maximizing of the (IWUE) on watermelon, it could be recommended to use the renovated trench method equipped with drip irrigation system plus grafting on tolerant rootstocks.
本研究于2016年和2017年连续两季在埃及Sharqia省El-Salheya El-Gedida的一个露天农场进行。通过改进埃及西瓜生产的旧方法，并将西瓜嫁接在一些耐水分胁迫的砧木上，以达到西瓜栽培节水和灌溉用水效率最大化的目的。本试验共设15个处理(3种栽培方式(旱作(传统沟灌)、畦(行)根据CLIMWAT 2.0和crowat 8.0软件计算的灌溉需水量(2320.7m)和改造方式(按计算需水量的40%进行滴灌(928.28m)) × 5种嫁接处理(4种砧木葫芦和重点杂交F1 (Lagenaria siceraria))。Shintosa F1杂交种和Ferro RZ F1杂交种(Cucurbita maxima × C. moschata)和Aswan F1无嫁接)。试验布置为因子条形图，采用随机完全区设计，共3个重复。在主条形小区设置栽植方式，在子小区随机设置嫁接处理。本研究成功地在水分条件(40%)下生产出与完全供水量条件(100%)下产量几乎相等的高产西瓜。这一结果显然是由于两种方法的平均产量之间没有显著差异，显著高于传统沟法(不灌溉)的平均产量。改造后的沟与传统沟产量相比，西瓜果实品质特征有所改善。嫁接在不同砧木上改善了所有营养生长性状，并导致产量成分的增加，这明显表现在营养生长值的显著增加上，这反映在对产量数量和质量的依赖上。采用双沟法配以嫁接在耐缺水砧木上的滴灌系统，灌溉用水效率(IWUS)得到了提高，根据本软件计算的需水量，与滴灌床相比，IWUS值增加了一倍。综上所述，为获得最高的产量和品质，并最大限度地提高西瓜的IWUE，可推荐采用改良沟法配以滴灌系统+嫁接在耐受性砧木上。
