Some biological parameters of the parasitoid, Encyrtus aurantii (Geoffroy) (Hymenoptera : Encyrtidae) were studied under controlled laboratory conditions at five levels of temperature 18, 21, 24, 27, and 30 °C, 65±5% R.H. and a photoperiod of 16:8 (L:D) h when reared on Brown soft scale Coccus hesperidum L. (Homoptera: Coccidae) reared on Pumpkin Cucurbita moschata during the season 2010- 2011 . Result showed that the longer developmental period from egg to pupa was on 18 °C with an average of 24.25 days, and the lower developmental period was on 30°C with an average of 8.25 days. The longer developmental period from pupa to adult was on 18 °C with an average of 10.75 days, and the lower period was on 30 °C with an average of 5.5 days. The lower developmental threshold (LDT) from egg to pupa was 15.83°C, and 14.34°C from pupa to adult. E. aurantii required a Sum of Effective Temperatures (SET) of 122.74 degree-days above the lower developmental threshold (16.95 °C) to complete the development from egg to adult.

Research summary
تتناول هذه الدراسة تأثير درجات الحرارة الثابتة على بعض المؤشرات الحياتية للمتطفل Encyrtus aurantii (Geoffroy) (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) في ظروف مخبرية. تم إجراء التجارب على خمس درجات حرارة مختلفة (18، 21، 24، 27، 30 درجة مئوية) ورطوبة نسبية 65±5% وفترة إضاءة (16:8) ساعة (ظلام: إضاءة). أظهرت النتائج أن أطول فترة لتطور البيضة إلى العذراء كانت عند درجة حرارة 18 مئوية بمتوسط 24.25 يوماً، وأقصر فترة كانت عند درجة حرارة 30 مئوية بمتوسط 8.25 يوماً. كما كانت أطول فترة لتطور العذراء إلى الحشرة الكاملة عند درجة حرارة 18 مئوية بمتوسط 10.75 يوماً، وأقصر فترة عند درجة حرارة 30 مئوية بمتوسط 5.5 يوماً. تم حساب العتبة الحرارية الدنيا (LDT) من البيضة إلى العذراء بـ 15.83 درجة مئوية، ومن العذراء إلى الحشرة الكاملة بـ 13.43 درجة مئوية، وللجيل الكامل بـ 16.95 درجة مئوية. يحتاج المتطفل إلى مجموع درجات حرارة فعالة (SET) 122.74 درجة-يومية فوق العتبة الحرارية الدنيا لإتمام جيل واحد (من البيضة إلى البالغة).
Critical review
دراسة نقدية: تعتبر هذه الدراسة مهمة في مجال المكافحة الحيوية، حيث تقدم معلومات قيمة حول تأثير درجات الحرارة على تطور المتطفل Encyrtus aurantii. ومع ذلك، يمكن توجيه بعض النقد البنّاء لتحسين الدراسة. أولاً، لم يتم تناول تأثير العوامل البيئية الأخرى مثل الرطوبة النسبية بشكل كافٍ، والتي قد تؤثر أيضاً على تطور المتطفل. ثانياً، كان من الممكن توسيع الدراسة لتشمل تجارب ميدانية للتحقق من النتائج المخبرية في ظروف طبيعية. أخيراً، لم يتم مناقشة تأثير درجات الحرارة المختلفة على سلوك المتطفل وقدرته على التحكم في أعداد الحشرات القشرية في البيئة الطبيعية.

A biological study of Phytomyza orobanchia Kalt on branched broomrape (Orobanche ramosa L.) which infest tomato crop, in the coastal region of Syria, was conducted during 2011/2012 growing season. It included a study of some biological parameters: The preoviposition, oviposition, post oviposition, total number of eggs laid per female, and total developmental period, at 25 ± 1ºc, 30 ± 1ºc and 70±5% RH. The results showed that the fertilized females insert their eggs singly in the flowers (seed capsules) and sometimes in the shoots of O. ramosa. The average of the total number of eggs per female was 12.90 ± 5.41, 13.50 ± 7.53 at 25 ± 1ºc, 30 ± 1ºc, respectively, without significant differences. The preoviposition period was 3.60 ± 0.79 day at 25 ± 1ºc, and decreased to 1.90 ± 0.32 day at 30 ± 1ºc with significant differences. The average values of other biological parameters (oviposition, post oviposition) were higher at 25 ± 1ºc, without significant differences. This insect has three larval instars, and the larvae complete its development and pupate inside seed capsules. the developmental period of pupa for female was shorter than pupa for male, and the total developmental period of P. orobanchia occupied 18.5 ± 3.49, 17.75 ± 2.99 day for male, and 17.7 ± 2.93, 16.7± 2.6 day for female at 25 ±1ºc, 30±1ºc respectively.
The effect of temperature on the development of the predator Hippodamia variegata (Coleoptera:Coccinellidae) reared on the green peach aphid Myzus persicae Sulzer (Homoptera:Aphididae) was determined at five constant temperatures (15, 20, 25, 30 a nd 35)°C under laboratory conditions. The present study was conducted at Latakia Agricultural Research Center during 2015 and 2016. This study aimed to determine the impact of temperature on the development of the predator H. variegata to identify the suitable temperature for rearing this predator. The duration (days) and survival (%) were measured for this predator. Results showed that temperature had a significant effect on the development of H. variegata immature stages, whereas the development time from larvae to adult decreased with increasing temperature at thermal range (15-35)°C. The longest larval developmental duration was 24.84 days at 15°C, and the shortest duration was 4 days at 35°C. Also, the shortest pupal duration was one day at 35°C and the longest period was 9.84 days at 15°C. The lowest developmental time from eggs hatching to emergence of adults was 6 days at 35°C, while the longest developmental time was 36.84 days at 15°C. Also the ratio of larval survival was affected by temperature, this ratio was (26%, 52%, 77%, 34%, 4%) at (15, 20, 25, 30 and 35)°C respectively. The results of statistical analysis showed that there were significant differences between the five constant temperatures in all studied biological characteristics, and the temperature 25°C was suitable for a successful rearing of the predator H. variegata.

This study included a test of 90 chickens; 90 samples as (a chest) and 90 samples as (a thigh). These samples were divided into four categories: the first one (45 chests) was stored with packages in a tin sheet, the second (45 chests) unpacked, the t hird (45 thighs) was stored with packages in a tin plate, the fourth (45 thighs) unpacked. The samples of each category were divided into three groups. Each group consists of 15 samples. These groups were stored at (25+°, 4+°, 20-°) .Then, the pH and the total count of bacteria were measured during storage in order to observe the time in which the samples will start to spoil in accordance with the Syrian Standards and Specifications Corporation 2007. We noticed the following physical changes: color, odor, flavor and texture. The results showed that the spoilage of the thigh samples happened before the chest ones and the packaged samples before the unpackaged ones. The samples spoiled after 24h of storage at 25+° and after 7 days of storage at 4+°, whereas, there was no spoilage noticed for the samples at 20-° but the appearance changed after 6 months of storage. Packing had a good effect on preservation. The conclusions and the suggestions were written in order to guide the consumer in the field of poultry meat storage.
Compacting hot mixes asphalt (HMA) at low temperatures or mixing it in the asphalt at high temperatures is a constant source of concern to researchers, as compacting and mixing at non-ideal temperatures leads to adverse results, which negatively affect the properties of asphalt concrete and lead to problems paving.
