introduction crop productivity is highly constrained by water and nitrogen limitations in many areas of the world (kalra et al., 2007). therefore, there is a need to investigate more on nitrogen and water management to achieve higher production as well as quality. irrigated sugar beet in the cropping systems of khorasan province in northeastern of iran accounts for about 34% of the land area un...

water is the most important factor for agriculture development in iran. accordingly the optimal consumptione of water is very important. using pressurized irrigation system is one of the methods to improve agricultural water management. the objecttives of this research were to compare two irrigation methods of furrow and trickle irrigation systems impacts on quantity and quality characters of s...

Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris) is an important crop plant that accounts for 30% of the world's sugar production annually. The genus Beta is a distant relative of currently sequenced taxa within the core eudicotyledons; the genomic characterization of sugar beet is essential to make its genome accessible to molecular dissection. Here, we present comprehensive genomic information in genetic and physi...

BACKGROUND In the present study, the phenolic compounds were prepared using ultrasonic-aid extraction from sugar beet molasses (SBM). METHODS Gallic acid (GA), cyanidin-3-O-glucoside chloride (CGC) and epicatechin (EP) were produced after column chromatography from the extraction, and further detected using NMR, QTOF-MS and ESI-MS/MS. RESULTS The three compounds exhibited strong antioxidant...

Lennefors, B-L. 2006. Molecular breeding for resistance to rhizomania in sugar beets. Doctor’s dissertation ISSN: 1652-6880, ISBN: 91-576-7255-5 Rhizomania is one of the most destructive sugar beet diseases. It is caused by Beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV) vectored by the soilborne protoctist Polymyxa betae Keskin. The studies in this thesis evaluated natural and transgenic resistances t...

SUBEMOpo (SUgar BEet MOdel potential production) is a mechanistic simulation model to simulate sugar beet growth and sugar accumulation for potential production conditions. Under those conditions sugar beet growth and sugar accumulation are entirely controlled by the prevailing weather (radiation, temperature) and by the crop characteristics (plant density). The only site characteristic require...

The current energy and environmental crisis, linked to increasing industrialisation, has progressively driven the adoption of solutions focused on circular life cycle thinking, such as waste management with resource recovery decarbonization technologies. In this context, study was built quantify performance a two-stage wastewater treatment process (dark fermentation anaerobic digestion) in whic...

Beet molasses successfully replaced glucose as sole carbon source to produce poly-b-hydroxybutyrate by a recombinant Escherichia coli strain (HMS174/pTZ18u-PHB). The fermentation with molasses was cheaper than with glucose. The final dry cell weight, PHB content and PHB productivity were 39.5 g/L, 80% (w/w) and 1 g/Lh, respectively, in a 5 L stirred tank fermenter after 31.5 h fed-batch ferment...

Objective(s): Sugar cane molasses is a commonly used ingredient in several food products. Contrasting reports suggest that molasses may have potential adverse or beneficial effects on human health. However, little evidence exists that examines the effects of molasses on the different physiological systems. This study investigated the effects of sugar cane molasses on various physiological syste...

The decision of whether to release transgenic crops in the EU is one subject to flexibility, uncertainty and irreversibility. We analyse the case of herbicide-tolerant sugar beet and estimate the maximum irreversible environmental cost that can be tolerated for this technology from a benefit–cost perspective. Among Member States, these costs range from an annual € 50 to € 212 per hectare plante...
