The sugar beet monosomic addition line M14 is a unique germplasm that contains genetic materials from Beta vulgaris L. and Beta corolliflora Zoss, and shows tolerance to salt stress. Our study focuses on exploring the molecular mechanism of the salt tolerance of the sugar beet M14. In order to identify differentially expressed genes in M14 under salt stress, a subtractive cDNA library was gener...

A patient with occupational asthma in the beet sugar processing industry is described. Symptomatology, skin testing, immunologic testing, and specific bronchoprovocation testing indicate exposure to moldy sugar beet pulp was the cause of the patient's occupational asthma. Cooperation between the treating physician and public health authorities is encouraged.

cover type of on–farm storages has an important role in reducing the freezing damage and respiration of beet roots in the pile. this experiment was conducted in 2006 in karaj region in order to evaluate the effects of cover types of storage on the mass and sugar losses of both topped and untopped beets. the experimental design was a split plot factorial in rcbd with three replications. the main...

powdery mildew disease caused quality and quantity losses of sugar beet production. therefore, five spraying treatments and three sugar beet variety were conducted in split plot design with four reapplications during consecutive two years in kermanshah and mashhad regions. in order to control of disease, tridimorph fungicide was used. spraying treatments were in main plot and variety in the sub...

in order to study the impacts of mechanical (using cultivation), chemical (using herbicides) methods and their integration in controlling broadleaf weeds in sugar beet fields, this experiment was carried out as a randomized complete block design with 4 replications in mahidasht-kermanshah in 2006.  in this experiment, 9 different treatments consisting a mixture of post-emergence herbicides phen...

The current study aimed to evaluate the variation in fermentation activity along the distal canine gastrointestinal tract (GIT, Exp. 1). It also aimed to assess fermentation kinetics and end product profiles of 16 dietary fibers for dog foods using canine fecal inoculum (Exp. 2). For Exp. 1, digesta were collected from the distal ileum, proximal colon, transverse colon, and rectum of 3 adult do...

low water consumption in autumn sugar beet sowing is an important strategy for sugar beet production, especially in arid regions like iran. for the development of a new monogerm triploid hybrid called sharif which is bolting tolerant and suitable for autumn sowing in khuzestan province, a breeding program was started in 1994 and continued for16 years. this program had two stages; the first stag...
