Two field experiments were conducted at Sakha Research Station, Kafr El-Sheikh Governorate, Egypt during 2012/2013 and 2013/2014 seasons, to study the effect of mineral and bio-fertilizers as well as their combinations on morphology, anatomy, yield and quality of sugar beet. Bio-fertilizers were phosphorine, cerealine and yeast; however, mineral fertilizers were 50, 75 and 100% from recommended...

the study was conducted during 2002- 2007 in the first and last stage of a four-year rotation (sugar beet, forage maize, onion, wheat and sugar beet) at research station of irrigation and drainage rudasht. in each year, four treatments of organic fertilizers (25 and 50 t/ha urban compost and 15 and 30 t/ha sewage sludge) with a control (no organic fertilizer) were studied in a randomized comple...

In Europe, the framework for sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) production was subject to considerable changes and for the future it is expected that sugar beet cultivation might concentrate around the sugar factories for economic reasons. Based on data from a national sugar beet farmers' survey and multi-year crop rotation trials, the effects of cropping interval (number of years in between two sub...

This paper analyzes the impact of genes and proportional contribution of parental genotypes on the inheritance of root yield and sugar content in diploid hybrids of sugar beet. The survey included two diploid male-sterile monogerm lines and three single (SC) male-sterile hybrids as maternal components, while three multigerm diploids were used as pollinators. The partitioning of genotypic varian...

to evaluate yield and productivity indices of maize and sugar beet intercropping with different planting ratios, a field experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design with three replication at hamedan province in nahavand, in 2013. the planting ratios were 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75 and 0:100 (maiz: sugar beet) using replacement method. results showed that intercropping had signi...

Conventional procedures are inadequate for optimizing the concentrations ofnutrients to increase the sugar yield. In this study, an artificial neural network(ANN) was used to optimize the Ca, Mg, N, K and Na content of the storage rootto increase sugar yield (Y) by increasing both sugar content (SC) and root yield(T). Data from three field experiments were used to produce a wide range ofvariati...

understanding of wheat root system is important in dryland conditions. root development, important factor in wheat production under water limiting conditions, can be affected by environmental factors especially nitrogen fertilizer. a field experiment was carried out to study the nitrogen rates and application times on root morphology of three rainfed wheat genotypes, using a split-splitplot bas...
