QUALITY OF SOME SUGAR BEET VARIETIES UNDER DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

Sugar Beet Genotypes Grouping under Normal and Saline Conditions

For ranking and grouping of full-sibs and hybrids of sugar beet obtained from breeding programs, two separate experiments were carried out at the farm of the Agricultural and Natural Resources Research Station of Miandoab in 2017 under saline and normal conditions. For this purpose, 17 full-sibs and 28 hybrids differing in resistance and susceptibility to environmental stresses were investigate...

Evaluation of some drought tolerance genes expressions and enzymatic changes in sugar beet monogerm cultivars under drought stress conditions

Sugar beet is a strategic and industrial crop and important in sugar production. Drought is a limited factor in sugar beet yield. Base on this, an experiment carried out using a split-plot format in the randomized complete block design with 4 replications in 1394-5 at Chenaran area (Bahman Jan village). The main plot included three drop irrigation regimes: 7, 14 and 21 days interval as normal, ...

Effect of Drying Conditions on Properties of Dried Sugar Beet

evaluation of resistance of some sugar beet genotypes to beet cyst nematode under greenhouse conditions

resistance of 11 genotypes of sugar beet to cyst nematode was evaluated in two separate greenhouse experiments in completely randomized design. in each experiment, 50 seedlings of each genotype were inoculated with 1000 nematode larves in several times. after 9 weeks, the number of cysts on each plant was counted. data were analyzed with sas program. the results showed that the genotypes differ...

Assessment of AquaCrop, WOFOST and CropSyst models for Estimating Sugar Beet Yield under Water Deficit Conditions

Sugar beet is one of the most important agricultural crops and its yield depends on irrigation water. Due to the impossibility of assessing the effect of all water amount strategies on sugar beet yield, it is necessary to use crop models such as WOFOST, AquaCrop and Cropsyst. In order to achieve this goal, a set of data collected from Shahrekord’s Agricultural Research Station were used. Treatm...
