in order to study the effects of planting date and sugar beet cultivars on infection to curly top virus, vector population, damping off, root rot, and sugar yield, an experiment was conducted in mobarakeh region during 1999-2000 in a split plot design. the main factor was three planting dates and sub factor was six sugar beet cultivars: ic1 as a susceptible cultivar to beet curly top, t41r, 723...

One hundred fifty rhizobacteria isolated from roots of Swiss chard grown in a soil suppressive to the sugar beet cyst nematode, Heterodera schachtii, were tested for their influence on the nematode's ability to hatch and infect roots. Two screening systems were used that focused on the ability of bacteria to inhibit either nematode hatching or root infection. Most of the bacterial strains reduc...

Field-grown sugar beets were analysed for morphological characters, sucrose content, and reproducible transcript profiles by macroarray analyses with 11,520 unique sugar-beet cDNA targets in two different years. Seasonal differences were partly compensated by expressing sampling dates as thermal time. During early beet development the number of cambial rings, root length, and sucrose concentrat...

Salt tolerance of higher plants is determined by a complex set of traits, the timing and rate of evolution of which are largely unknown. We compared the salt tolerance of cultivars of sugar beet and their ancestor, sea beet, in hydroponic studies and evaluated whether traditional domestication and more recent breeding have changed salt tolerance of the cultivars relative to their ancestor. Our ...

this research was carried out to evaluate the effects of some morphophysiological traits on white sugar yield of 10 commercial sugar beet (beta vulgaris l.) varieties. all experiments were conducted in four important sugar beet growing areas in iran, i.e. moghan, khoy, karaj and zarghan in 2006 and 2007. the experiment was arranged as a randomized complete block design with three replications i...

An in sacco mobile bag technique was used to determine the rate and extent of disappearance of unmolassed sugar-beet pulp, soyabean hulls, hay cubes and an oat hull-naked oats mixture (67:33, w/w) in the foregut and total digestive tract of ponies. Ponies were administered naso-gastrically polyester mesh bags containing 350 mg feed, in a Latin square design. Bags were collected at the ileo-caec...

to study the effects of sowing dates, irrigation intervals and different cultivars on sugar beet root rot disease management and its quality and quantity yields, an experiment was conducted in a split- factorial based on randomized complete block design with four replications in the field of sugar factory jame. two irrigation intervals: eight days and 16 days were allocated in main plots, and d...

water is one of the most important restrictive factors in crop production. therefore, optimum use of water resources in line with sustainable agriculture is mandatory. in this research the effects of different amounts of allowed soil water depletion at various growth stages of root sugar beet and its effect on qualitative and quantitative characters of the crop were studied. the experimental de...

in order to study the effect of genotype × environment interaction and stability of sugar beet varieties, four cultivars, including shirine, zarghan, laetitia and 7112 hybrid were planted in five major areas near to sugar beet factory of biseton as kangavar, sahneh, chamchamal, dinavar and ravansar for three years (2006-2008) using a randomized complete block designs, with three replications. a...
