Achieving the intended purpose of the local administration requires carful selection of the
elements assigned to work in local units, which requires that those elements are aware of
local reality and have sufficient technical expertise. In the cont
ext of the inability of the
method used in forming local councils to achieve the objectives of local administration, the
jurisprudence and legislation differ in determining the method to be followed within the
priority of those objectives and within the political ،economic ،and social reality in each country.
Where some systems tend to adopt the election in selecting the members of local councils ,
while others tend to adopt the method of appointing or the combination of (election and
appointing) methods in order to take the advantages of both methods . But, it is the need
and desire of prevailing legal system and the possibilities available , that determine the
method to be adopted.
This study was carried out to determine the efficiency of local Bacillus isolates to
control large wax moth larvae (Galleria mellonella L.) at GCSAR laboratory in 2012.
Infected larvae were collected from stored wax combs, and the bacteria Bacillus
genus were isolated from dead larvae, or that showing disease symptoms of black
brown spots on larvae cuticle. Bacterium was grown on T3 medium and identified
according to biochemical tests, and the efficacy of isolates was determined on pure
colonies of larvae. The results of biochemical tests showed that the isolates belong
to Bacillus thuringiensis. Isolates were different in pathogenicity. Bt5 isolate was
the most efficient to kill the larvae of large wax moth (72.4 %), and significantly
superior all other isolates (p ≤ 0.01). Bt1 isolate showed a significant difference
with control but non-significant difference with Bt2, Bt3, Bt4, Bt6 and Bt7 isolates.
Biological tests were study the pathogenicity of four
local isolates of Beauveria bassiana (Bals) orginated
from, Latakia , Homs ,ICARDA Jableh on third larval age of Bactrocera oleae.
In some applications we try to avoid the transfer of heat by convection, especially
through monomur bricks. The solution of this problem consist in division the cavity by
putting number of columns between the two external surfaces. We've studied he
at transfer
in different profiles of monomur brick. The results of the numeric simulations are studied
by following the two approaches (local and whole). The local approach consists of
studying the heat transfer during every cavity. While the whole approach consists of study
the heat transfer in whole cavity. The numeric simulation was achieved by following the
finished volumes and Fluent program that solves the equations of the mass' conservation,
movement and energy. It's clear that the position of columns allows passing from
convective regime into conductive regime inside the cavity. The optimal solution is to
homogeneous partition by columns. Finally, we've a method allowing as to define the
heterogeneous structure (number of columns and their thickness, thickness of a variable
cavities).
Featuring a self-compacting concrete (SCC) high capacity to fill the mold and
passing ability through barriers under the influence of self-weight without vibration,
thereby reducing the required labour and reduces the noise associated with vibratio
n.
Modern applications focused on improving the specifications of high performance,
resistance and speed of construction. The research presents an experimental study for an
(SCC) mix produced from local materials, including the necessary tests on the proposed
concrete mix, which approved in the global codes. These experiments determine the basic
characteristics of (SCC) in fresh case were also identified pressure resistance of (SCC) and
determine the value of the modulus of elasticity (E) and the behavior curvatures. All mixes
have been achieved global standards and conditions, and the required experiments were
done in the laboratory of civil engineering faculty at Tishreen University.
The experiment was conducted at Tayba Research Station, General
Commission for Scientific Agricultural Research during 2011-2012, and 2012-
2013 growing seasons. Randomized block design with three replications was
used to investigate phenotypic va
riances and to determine correlation of yield
components of six local genotypes of radish. Significant differences between
genotypes were appeared in diameter, length and weight of radish root. The
correlation analysis revealed that root weight was positively and significantly
correlated with both yield (0.964) and root diameter (0.274). Yield was
positively and significantly correlated with root diameter (0.382). Root length
was positively and significantly correlated with plant height (0.333) and
number of leaves (0.329) per plant.

A total of 370 bottles of noncarbonated natural mineral water (domestic and
imported) with different bottling dates, were collected directly from the
markets in Syria one word one year 2006.
Bacterial diversity was approached with tentative
identification of the strains isolated using biochemical and enzymatic criteria
(with the aid of API 20 NE identification system for nonfermenters).
A study was conducted to evaluate the diversity among chickpeas accessions
collected from Jordan for some morpho-agronomic traits, specially yield and its
components. The evaluated material consisted of 137 accessions and three
improved cultivars
released in Jordan. The study was conducted at the Jordan
University of Science and Technology Research Station using the augmented
design. Some of the parameters used in the evaluation included the mean,
standard deviation, range, coefficient of variation, diversity index. Also, a
dendrogram to establish the relationship among locations where landraces
were originally developed.
Results indicated the presence of significant variability for all traits under
investigation. Diversity index values (H′) exceeded 0.50 for all characters with
the highest value for biological yield (0.84), followed by lowest pod height
(0.82), grain yield (0.78), and straw yield (0.78).
The following accessions were found to be superior over the improved
cultivars in one or more of the studied characters: ILC 6941, ILC 6938, ILC
4411, and ILC 4096. These are important genetic resources for breeders to
improve the chickpea crop.
The results indicated the importance of the local landraces as a source of
genetic variability that should be conserved, evaluated and utilized by breeders
to improve the crop productivity and quality.
This study was conducted at the Faculty of Agriculture, Damascus
University, during the period from the beginning of January and the beginning
of April, during the year 2002, on 107 local rabbit offsprings at one day age,
were divided according to
the color into five groups: 27 white, 22 black, 25
brown, 14 red, and 19 gray, then given numbers at the birth on her abdomens
and were weighted weekly, after that they were weaned at age 28 days.
