Impact of Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in sugarcane productivity was assessed through a field experiment from plant and ratoon sugarcane in Tamil Nadu, India. Control, 12.5 and 18.75 kg ha-1 of AMF along with 75% and 100% of phosphorous application were triedas treatments. 18.75 kg ha-1 AMF applied plots showed significant difference in germination percentage, tiller number, internode...

in order to study the effect of organic fertilizers application on increasing nitrogen efficiency and also quantitative and qualitative characteristics of sugar beet, a series of experiments were performed for two years (2008 and 2009) using three amino acid containing organic fertilizers at motahari research station of sugar beet seed institute (sbsi), karaj, iran. four rates of organic fertil...

The objective of this study was to elevate water deficit tolerance by improving soluble sugar and free proline accumulation, photosynthetic pigment stabilization, photosynthetic abilities, growth performance and storage root yield in sweet potato cv. 'Tainung 57' using a foliar application of paclobutrazol (PBZ). The experiment followed a Completely Randomized Block Design with four concentrati...

A model SUBEMOpo, to simulate sugar beet growth and sugar accumulation for potential production conditions has been evaluated. Given initial conditions, the growth, development and sugar accumulation of the model are driven by observed weather (i.e. maximum and minimum temperatures, rainfall, wind speed, relative humidity and solar radiation). Soil water and nutrients are considered as non limi...

Sugarcane bagasse contains cellulose, lignin and hemicellulose, 39-42%, 20-25% and 25-27% respectively. So it is can be used as a sugar source in many processes. Lignin and hemicellulose must be removed before hydrolysis of cellulose. Several different pretreatment approaches have been studied. The purpose of this research is comparison of acid, ozone and combination of ozone-acid as pretreatme...

the current study was carried out to examine sugar beet growth pattern in climatic conditions of hamedan, iran and to recognize the factors affecting its quantity and quality as well as the physiological indices. two sowing date experiments were conducted on the basis of a randomized complete block design with four replications and 11 harvests. the plots were destructively sampled and the growt...

A two-year experiment was carried out to study the effects of pollinator line characteristicson the quantity and quality of monogerm hybrid seed production in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.)and select proper pollinator for five promising sugar beet cytoplasmic male sterile lines (CMSs)during 2012-2013 growing seasons. In this study, four diploid pollinator lines were crossed byfive CMSs of sugar ...

the use of organic fertilizer brings about an increase in the organic matter of soil and the microbiological activities. generally as the soil in many parts of iranis poor, the use of manure is suggested for improvement of soil structure and physical and chemical properties to increase yield and to reach a sustainable agriculture. this investigation was conducted during 2001-2004 in karaj at th...
