Egg parasitoid Trichogramma strain (TNV) received from Kharga Oasis, New Valley Governorate, Egypt, is used in controlling certain date palm lepidopteran insect pests. The morphological features of adult wasps and genetically identification of the strain was carried out. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and light microscope were used for studying morphology of male and female adults and measurements. Data revealed that body length of male was shorter than female. However, adult parasitoid body length of TNV was longer than the species, Trichogramma evanescens West. studied by several authors. In addition, external morphology of antennae, wings, and male genitalia were differed in TNV Trichogramma. The strain TNV identification was based on the molecular genetic techniques using PCR amplification and sequencing of the internal transcribed spacer two (ITS2) region of the rDNA. The BLAST result and phylogenetic analysis of the ITS2 region of rDNA sequence revealed that the strain TNV is closely related to Trichogramma turkestanica. Obtained results confirmed that the Trichogramma sp., used as a biological control in the New Valley, is T. turkestanica and not T. evanescens.

this reasearch aimsto determine rates of adoption and coninuation of some selected innovations (wheat sedsl,El-Gorma watermelon, sprinkler Irrigation System, and Sugar Beet) and to detemine perceived barriers to adoption and diffusion of these selected innovations from farmers' point of view. In order to achieve these objectives, an empirical study targeted all farmers of The Third village in Darb El-Arbaeen area, paris District, The New valley Governorate. Data were collected during January 2008 through personal interviews . Results showedthat high price of fetilises.its unavailability and high used for data processing and presentation.,and high shelling of grains were the most imporyant barriers to the adoption of wheatseds 1.barrierriers to the adoption and diffusion of sprinkler irrigation system were:more labor,more effort,time and money,losses in yields caused by transferreing pipes, demage of pipes, yype of soil is not suitable, prefer surface irrigation system

Whey protein is a by-product derived from the production of cheese and it has many benefits for human health that what the recent research work has shown, so it is known as a functional food. It is known that there are salt whey and sweet whey depending on the process of making cheese. Whey protein is absorbed and digested rapidly. Whey protein contains a number of bioactive components including β-lactoglobulin, α-lactalbumin, serum albumin, immunoglobulin, and lactoferrin. These components have positive effects on health such as immune improving and antioxidant characteristic that reduce hypertension, cancer, hyperlipidemia, and virus contagious. The transformation of the amino acid cysteine to glutathione can partially these effects. In addition, whey protein can cure inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Moreover, whey protein is a rich source of branched chain amino acids, which are particularly good for athletes and sarcopenic cases. In this review, we conclude the characteristics of whey protein and the latest results related the effects of whey protein on specific conditions for human health.
