PURPOSE This study examined how college students choose beverages and whether behavioral interventions might reduce their heavy consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages. METHODS From April to June 2010, 90 students participated in 12 focus groups at 6 colleges in Massachusetts and Louisiana. The study team undertook a group content analysis of the verbatim focus group transcripts using the im...

plant analysis is successfully used in monitoring nutritional status, recommending fertilizer rates and types, and maximizing fertilizer efficiency in sugar beet. diagnosis and recommendation integrated system (dris) is a comprehensive approach which does not have limitations of the critical value approach (cva) and sufficiency range approach (sra). over- dose application of fertilizer increase...

in order to investigate the relationships of some morphological traits at the early stages of three sugar beet cultivars with final yield at varying levels of water regines, a field experiment was carried out in karaj, and mashhad, in 2001-2003.  the objective of this study was to find the relation of some morphological traits of three sugar beet genotypes (7219-p.69, bp-karaj and 7112)  during...

Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) is a valuable sugar-providing crop accounting for around 25% of global white sugar production. It an integral part the food industry. Several factors cause decrease in yield this crop. The infection phytopathogenic fungi one most hazardous. Though several methods to control Rhizoctonia solani have been developed, problem still not solved. Thus, goal work was invest...

objective fungi produce many different carotenoids and some are attractive in medical and industrial sources. in this work the ability of mucor hiemalis (ptcc 5292) to produce carotenoids in media with different nitrogenous and carbon sources and incubation with white, yellow, blue and red lights (15w, 220v, e27) against dark-grown were studied. materials and method the microorganism cultivatio...
