this is a report on the occurrence of the hymenoterous parasitoid of the beet moth, scrobipalpa ocellatella boyd (lep.: gelechiidae), in iran for the first time. diadegma pusio (holmgren) was collected from the larvae of s. ocellatella in the sugar beet fields located in ray, the southern district of tehran. this ichneumonid species is belonging to the subfamily campopleginae and tribe limneriini.

the sugar beet moth, scrobipalpa ocellatella boyd. (lep.: gelechidae( is the specific pest of beet. the aim of the present study was to identify the parasitoids of the moth. in this regard, sampling was conducted in fields of khorasan-e-razavi province during 2010 from early july until october. larvae and pupa were collected along with tubers of sugar beet and then were reared under controlled ...

this paper reports the occurrence of the hymenoterous parasitoids of the beet moth, scrobipalpa ocellatella boyd larvae in iran for the first time. two braconid species of microchelonus subcontractus abdinbekova and bracon intercessor nees were collected from the larvae of s. ocellatella in the sugar beet fields located in ray, the southern district of tehran. these parasitoids are belonging to...

Sugar beet pulp is a by-product from the processing of sugar beets into sugar. Beet pulp is extracted grounded sugar beet. It is used as livestock feed and it can be fed fresh, dried and ensiled (fermented beet pulp). Sugar beet pulp is a by-product from the processing of sugar beet which is used as fodder for cattle and other livestock. It is supplied either as dried flakes or as compressed pe...

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 ...

Sugar and fodder beet were grown in three years to assess the potential sugar yield for ethanol production in the region. Fresh weight root yields ranged from 70-85 t/ha for sugar beet and 55-136 t/ha for fodder beet. Sugar contents averaged 15% for sugar beet and 10117o for fodder beet resulting in sugar yields of 10-12 t/ha and 5-12 t/ha respectively. Consistently higher sugar yield from suga...

Sugar beet is a species of the Chenopodiaceae family. It is an important sugar crop that supplies approximately 35% of the sugar in the world. Sugar beet M14 line is a unique germplasm that contains genetic materials from Beta vulgaris L. and Beta corolliflora Zoss. And exhibits tolerance to salt stress. In this review, we have summarized OMICS technologies and applications in sugar beet includ...

In Europe, the framework for sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) production was subject to considerable changes and for the future it is expected that sugar beet cultivation might concentrate around the sugar factories for economic reasons. Based on data from a national sugar beet farmers' survey and multi-year crop rotation trials, the effects of cropping interval (number of years in between two sub...
