determination of an optimum sample size for the evaluation of sugar beet quality is of vital importance. a desirable sugar beet sample could represent confidently the sugar content and quality of delivered beets to the sugar factories. this experiment was carried out at research station of kamalshahr, karadj, iran. the experimental field was about 2000 m2 with the distance between rows and plan...

Cercospora leaf spot, caused by Cercospora beticola, is the most damaging foliar disease of sugar beet in Minnesota (MN) and North Dakota (ND). Research was conducted to characterize the temporal progression of aerial concentration of C. beticola conidia in association with the environment and disease severity in sugar beet. In 2003 and 2004, volumetric spore traps were placed within inoculated...

this research was carried out to evaluate the effects of some morphophysiological traits on white sugar yield of 10 commercial sugar beet (beta vulgaris l.) varieties. all experiments were conducted in four important sugar beet growing areas in iran, i.e. moghan, khoy, karaj and zarghan in 2006 and 2007. the experiment was arranged as a randomized complete block design with three replications i...

maize (zea mays l.) is one of the most important crops that used for food, feeding and industrial products and in iran a developing cultivation. in order to study of corn s reactions (hybrid bc666) to supply nutrients to organic nutrition (bacteria and manure) as summer sown in climate conditions of lorestan. an experiment was conduct in meteorology station of lorestan s agriculture research fi...

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...

this study aimed at determining the evapotranspiration and crop coefficient (kc) of sugar beet during the plant growth using drainage lysimeter by using water balance and experimental methods for three years in shahrekord. after sugar beet planting and out of lysimeter, evapotranspiration was measured weekly and monthly by measuring the factors of the water- balance equation. results showed tha...

The cultivation of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) for table or horticultural purposes is largely carried out in the conventional way which characterized by intense mechanization causing soil degradation and high labor costs. New techniques are being employed production vegetables aiming to ensure improvements environmental economic conditions, such as no-till farming system. Thus, objective this...
