Climate is one of the most important factors that influence the quality and quantity of crops. Understanding the natural features of any region, especially about the climate, can play a major role in making plans and land use planning. Sugar beet, is one of the major industrial plants, that in addition to producing one of the most fundamental basic needs of society, namely sugar, it can have ot...

Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris) is an important crop plant that accounts for 30% of the world's sugar production annually. The genus Beta is a distant relative of currently sequenced taxa within the core eudicotyledons; the genomic characterization of sugar beet is essential to make its genome accessible to molecular dissection. Here, we present comprehensive genomic information in genetic and physi...

short growing season in cold regions is an important factor in not achieving a maximum root yield in sugar beet crop. in an investigation on possible ways to limit the effect of short season culture on the crop, six harvest dates and three sugar beet varieties were considered. the experiment was conducted as a factorial with randomized complete block design in three replications, from 1996-1998...

During the 19th century the cultivation of grass and root crops for the production of raw sugars was associated with some of the most important developments in the international economy. The burgeoning demand for cheap foodstuffs from the industrial centres of Western Europe and the United States led to an enormous increase in demand for cheap sugm along with other wicultural and industrial com...

Copper and arsenic have been analysed in refined beet sugar at the microgram kg-1 level by anodic stripping voltammetry (copper) and cathodic stripping voltammetry (arsenic) in the differential-pulse mode (DPASV and DPCSV) at a hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE). DPCSV measurements of arsenic are based on its accumulation onto the HMDE as an intermetallic Cu-As compound followed by the reduc...

Lennefors, B-L. 2006. Molecular breeding for resistance to rhizomania in sugar beets. Doctor’s dissertation ISSN: 1652-6880, ISBN: 91-576-7255-5 Rhizomania is one of the most destructive sugar beet diseases. It is caused by Beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV) vectored by the soilborne protoctist Polymyxa betae Keskin. The studies in this thesis evaluated natural and transgenic resistances t...

SUBEMOpo (SUgar BEet MOdel potential production) is a mechanistic simulation model to simulate sugar beet growth and sugar accumulation for potential production conditions. Under those conditions sugar beet growth and sugar accumulation are entirely controlled by the prevailing weather (radiation, temperature) and by the crop characteristics (plant density). The only site characteristic require...
