Drought Impact Is Alleviated in Sugar Beets (Beta vulgaris L.) by Foliar Application of Fullerenol Nanoparticles
Over the past few years, significant efforts have been made to decrease the effects of drought stress on plant productivity and quality. We propose that fullerenol nanoparticles (FNPs, molecular formula C60(OH)24) may help alleviate drought stress by serving as an additional intercellular water supply. Specifically, FNPs are able to penetrate plant leaf and root tissues, where they bind water i...
متن کاملSugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.).
Creating transgenic plants is invaluable for the genetic analysis of sugar beet and will be increasingly important as sugar beet genomic technologies progress. A protocol for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of sugar beet is described in this chapter. Our protocol is optimized for a sugar beet genotype that performs exceptionally well in tissue culture, including the steps of dedifferentia...
متن کاملThe Effect of Potassium (K) and Boron (B) Foliar Application on Quantitative and Qualitative Traits of Sugar Beet (Beta vulgaris L.) under Drought Stress Conditions
In order to study the effects of foliar application of potassium (K) and boron (B) and dificit irrigation treatments on quantitative and qualitative traits of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.), a split plot experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications in the Research Field of Shahrekord University, Shahrekord, Iran, in 2019. The main plots were allocate...
متن کاملGrowth and dry matter partitioning in sugar beet plants (Beta vulgaris L.) under moderate drought
Growth response of sugar beet plants to drought stress applied at different growth stages has been investigated. Cessation of watering imposed moderate water stress and resulted in the reduction of the relative water content of young and old leaves maximally by 6%. However, water content in taproot was more drastically decreased than in the shoot. Water withholding reduced dry ma�er accumulatio...
متن کاملAn Explanation for the Difference in Photosynthetic Capabilities of Healthy and Beet Yellows Virus-infected Sugar Beets (Beta vulgaris L.).
Sugar beets (Beta vulgaris L.) infected with the Beet Yellows Virus exhibit lower rates of net photosynthesis at light saturation than do healthy plants. These Pn reductions were correlated with increases in leaf resistance to water vapor loss. Theoretical analyses demonstrated that, although the leaf resistance to water vapor loss increases could account for a major part of the net photosynthe...
