American sugar beet farmers produce half of our domestic refined sugar valued at over $3 billion per year (APHIS, 2010). The U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California (CA District Court) will soon determine whether U.S. farmers can continue to grow genetically modified (GM) sugar beet (Beta vulgaris ssp vulgaris var altissima) in the case of Center for Food Safety v. Vilsack (...

AIM An environment compatible technique to stain Platyhelminthes, Fasciola gigantica, Gastrothylax crumenifer, Taenia solium, and Moniezia expansa using aqueous and alcoholic extract of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris), China rose (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis), and red rose (Rosa hybrida) were described to minimized the deleterious effects of the synthetic dyes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Aqueous/ethanolic e...

This study tests the effect of glyphosate application on disease severity in glyphosate-resistant sugar beet, and examines whether the increase in disease is fungal or plant mediated. In greenhouse studies of glyphosate-resistant sugar beet, increased disease severity was observed following glyphosate application and inoculation with certain isolates of Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn and Fusarium oxys...

Aim: This study was planned to investigate the effect of sugar beet, neem leaf, linseed and coriander on growth parameters such as feed intake, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio (FCR), performance index (PI), and carcass characteristics in broiler birds. Materials and Methods: The experiment was conducted for a period of 42 days on Vanaraja strain of broiler birds. Different dietary suppl...

monogerm and multigerm seed varieties are used in sugar beet cultivation. singling is inevitable and mechanization almost impossible when multigerm seed varieties are used. for this and for some other reasons, economically sound and fully mechanized cultivation of sugar beet calls for the use of monogerm seed varieties. throughout europe, only monogerm varieties are used in sugar beet productio...

This paper is the instructions for the proceeding of the International Symposium on Crop. Sugar beet crop models have rarely taken into account the morphogenetic process generating plant architecture despite the fact that plant architectural plasticity plays a key role during growth, especially under stress conditions. The objective of this paper is to develop this approach by applying the Gree...

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...

The article presents a sustainability assessment of the beet-to-sugar production system in Sweden from 2003 until 2015. It focuses on the life-cycle phases of beet growing, beet transport and sugar processing. Based on the Swedish sustainable development strategy, eight indicators in environmental and socioeconomic domains based significantly on EU price and production quota changes are assesse...
