Improving the chemical and physical properties of saline soils is crucial for sustainable production sugar beet efficient processing sugar. Here, impacts application treated filter cake on biofortification under soil losses into molasses during were evaluated first time. The significantly reduced K%, Na%, α-amino-N while enhanced sucrose content quality index root juice. Consequently, loss perc...

(2) the low-ash tendency of the west coast sugars is due to low concentrations of both inorganic and organic salts, and (3) the moderately high ash of the eastern sugars is due to high concentrations of organic salts and in spile of low values for inorganic salts. In addition, from portions of the tables presented earlier, we may say tha t the differences in the salt components of the sugars ar...

The influence of salinity on the different polyamine fractions (free, conjugated, and bound) was compared in a natrophilic halophyte (Beta vulgaris L. cv. IC) and a salt sensitive glycophyte (Nicotiana rustica L. cv. Basmas). Low-level salinity (25 mM NaCl) and high salinity (150 and 50 mM NaCl for sugar beet and tobacco, respectively) were supplied in hydroponics. Under low salinity shoot dry ...

Background and Objectives: Red beet extract concentrate can be used as a natural colorant in food products; however, destructive effects of thermal methods to produce juice concentrate decrease nutritional value in the final product. Materials and Methods: In this study, red beet extract was concentrated using osmotic distillation method, and the best pretreatment was evaluated to increase t...

on of the most important of sugar beets quality is amount of sodium and potassium, because this compounds are strongly molassogenic and reduction of yield. so , attention on reasons that change this compound in sugar beets and consequently in produced juice are very important. in this study, effect of size of sugar beet (obtained from different areas) on changes of sodium and potassium are inve...

Creating transgenic plants is invaluable for the genetic analysis of sugar beet and will be increasingly important as sugar beet genomic technologies progress. A protocol for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of sugar beet is described in this chapter. Our protocol is optimized for a sugar beet genotype that performs exceptionally well in tissue culture, including the steps of dedifferentia...

BACKGROUND Pectin-rich wastes, such as citrus pulp and sugar beet pulp, are produced in considerable amounts by the juice and sugar industry and could be used as raw materials for biorefineries. One possible process in such biorefineries is the hydrolysis of these wastes and the subsequent production of ethanol. However, the ethanol-producing organism of choice, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is not...

BACKGROUND Sugar beet and intermediates of sugar beet processing are considered to be very attractive feedstock for ethanol production due to their content of fermentable sugars. In particular, the processing of the intermediates into ethanol is considerably facilitated because it does not require pretreatment or enzymatic treatment in contrast to production from starch raw materials. Moreover,...

BACKGROUND Modification of leaf traits in sugar beet requires a strong leaf specific promoter. With such a promoter, expression in taproots can be avoided which may otherwise take away available energy resources for sugar accumulation. RESULTS Suppression Subtractive Hybridization (SSH) was utilized to generate an enriched and equalized cDNA library for leaf expressed genes from sugar beet. F...

Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L. ssp. vulgaris) is one of the most important European crops for both food and sugar production. Crop improvement has been developed to enhance productivity, sugar content or other breeder's desirable traits. The introgression of traits from Crop Wild Relatives (CWR) has been done essentially for lessening biotic stresses constraints, namely using Beta and Patellifoli...
