The present investigation was undertaken to estimate phenotypic correlation and path coefficient analysis for grain yield and its components in maize. Four local genotypes of yellow maize were evaluated in 2008 and 2009 growing seasons at two loca tions i.e. Damascus and Dir Al-Zor under three nitrogen fertilization levels (130, 195 and 260 of N. ha-1), The nitrogen fertilizer was applied at two splits. Split split plot design was used with 4 replications. Results of phenotypic correlation values showed that grain yield at Damascus location was positively and significantly associated with ear height (r= 0.204**), ear length (r= 0.205**) and number of rows per ear (r= 0.228**). On the other hand, grain yield at Dir Al-Zor location was positively and significantly associated with all studied traits at combined data whereas, it was positively and significantly associated with ear length at three levels and combined data (0.305*, 0.410**, 0.347** and 0.375**, respectively). The data of path coefficient analysis showed that ear length, ear height and number of rows per ear had positive direct effects on grain yield variation and thus grain yield improvement can be achieved through selection for ear length and ear height at Damascus location (11.06%). On the other side, data showed that each of ear height, number of kernels per row and 100-kernel weight had positive direct effects on grain yield variation (32.98%) and thus, 100-kernel weight can be considered as selection criteria may lead to the improvement of grain yield in yellow maize at Dir Al-Zor location.

The study was done at the field research station Sianow of General Commission for Scientific Agricultural Research at Lattakia, to evaluate the susceptibility of 6 strains of maize Zea mays. L, and fifteen maize crosses obtained by half Diallel cro ss, against under conditions Industrial infection by large corn stem borer , Sesamia cretica Led. The experience was designed at randomized complete blocks (R.C.B.D). Strain IL.257-09)P1( expressed general high capacity to the attributes of Number of kernels per row(3.089), number of holes (-1.261). Strain IL.298-09 (P2) also expressed general high capacity to the attributes of Ear length (0.717), Intensity of damage (-0.432),% of yield loss (-6.022). strain IL.286-09 (P3) general high capacity to the attributes of diameter Ear (0.292), number of rows per ear (2.806). Strains IL.255-09 )P4) )0.036( and IL.228-09)P5) (0.969) also expressed general high capacity to the attributes of grain yield. Strain IL.262- 09(P6) expressed general high capacity to the attributes of 100- Kernel weight (1.942), infestation grain yield) 0.784), tunnel length (-5.629), Percentage of dead hearts (-1.132).
This study was conducted at the of field research station Sianow belong to the General Commission for Scientific Agricultural Research at Lattakia, to evaluate the susceptibility of maize hybrids produced by using half Diallel the cross according to the design ofrandomized completeblocks (R.C.B.D), under industrial infection by large corn stem borer Sesamia cretica. Hybrids were compared with the control (Ghouta- 82). The hybrid (P1 × P2) Showed positive and highly significantheterosis for Ear diameter and tolerance forlarge corn stem borer compared with the average of the parents and the best parents and the check (Ghouta- 82). The hybrid (P2 × P6) showed positive and highly significant heterosis for the number of kernels per row compared with the average of the parents and the best parents and the check (Ghouta- 82). Also the hybrid (P1 × P6) showed positive and highly significant heterosis for the number of kernels per row relative to the average of the parents and the best parents and the check (Ghouta- 82). hybrid (P4 × P6) showed positive and highly significant heterosis for the recipe grain yield compared with the average of the parents and the best parents and the check (Ghouta- 82). The hybrid(P5 × P6) also showed positive and highly significant heterosis for the Percentage of dead hearts of the developing summit compared with the average of the parents and the best parents, and compared with the check (Ghouta- 82), therefore it can be considered as a sensitive hybrid.
The aim of this research is to determine the effect of some heavy metal ions on total protien metabolism in seeds and seedlings of maize plant (GHOTA 82) and study the changes in the morphological specifications of plant, after cultivating for 6 d ays in solutions at different concentrations of water and heavy metal ions Ni2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Cd2+, Hg2+ and Pb2+. The results showed that heavy metal ions have inhibitory effect on total protien metabolism, which decreased their amount in seedlings, While accumulated in the seeds. This inhibitory effect depends on the type and concentration of heavy metal ions. The results also showed morphological changes in the maize plant seedlings, which decreased their growth due to the effect of these ions.
