Evaluation of Rhizoctonia zeae as a potential biological control option for fungal root diseases of sugar beet" (2015). Abstract Several common root diseases routinely damage sugar beet in Nebraska and other production areas of the Central High Plains, and it is becoming more common to find fields infested simultaneously with multiple pathogens. Owing to the shortage of available fungicides for...

Salt tolerance of higher plants is determined by a complex set of traits, the timing and rate of evolution of which are largely unknown. We compared the salt tolerance of cultivars of sugar beet and their ancestor, sea beet, in hydroponic studies and evaluated whether traditional domestication and more recent breeding have changed salt tolerance of the cultivars relative to their ancestor. Our ...

in order to study the effect of solitary and combined application of two types of green manure, cow manure, barvar-2 phosphate fertilizer and conventional chemical fertilizer on some of the qualitative and quantitativeproperties of sugar beet, an experiment was conducted at the research farm of shahrekord university in 2013. the experimental design was randomized in a complete block design with...

An in sacco mobile bag technique was used to determine the rate and extent of disappearance of unmolassed sugar-beet pulp, soyabean hulls, hay cubes and an oat hull-naked oats mixture (67:33, w/w) in the foregut and total digestive tract of ponies. Ponies were administered naso-gastrically polyester mesh bags containing 350 mg feed, in a Latin square design. Bags were collected at the ileo-caec...

BACKGROUND: The use of agricultural waste as organic fertilizers is important for soil fertility and plants health production. OBJECTIVES: The aims of this study were to examine the effects of different types and rates of vermicompost on physiological and morphological properties of lettuce. METHODS: Present study was conducted acco...

abstract plant species differ in their ability to grow at low available p soils in other words, plant species differ in p use efficiency at low p supply. this ability can be investigated by comparing p uptake efficiency of plants and relative effective factors. a pot experiment was carried out in the growth chamber and sugar beet, maize and groundnut were grown in a low available p soil in a co...

for determination of irrigated sugar beet crop evaporation (etc) and water consumption a field experiment was conducted for three years (1991 to 1993)  in kabotar-abad agricultural experiment station. the climate was semi-arid according to gossen method with mean annual precipitation of 90 to 110 mm. the soil was esfahan series with a silty clay loam texture. the crop evapotranspiration was mea...

Habitat disturbance affects numerous ecosystem components and processes, but its effect on continuous soybean system is less available. Soybean was seeded following six preceding crops, including grain soybean (Glycine max L. Merill.), wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.), tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.), corn (Zea mays L.) and hemp (Cannabis Satia L.), on a Mollisol ...

this experiment was conducted in five regions of spring sowing of beet cultivation as follow: karaj, hamadan, shiraz, miandoab and mashhad for three years. five levels of potassium (0, 50, 100, 150 & 200 kg/has) from k2so4 source were applied before sowing. the experiment design was crbd design with five replications. the results showed that both root yield and sugar yield were affected signifi...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect  of irrigation period on the quality and quantity of yield and some morphological and physiological traits of three multigerm sugar beet genotypes named BP Mashhad, BP Karaj and 191. The experiment was in a split  plot  based on randomized complete block  design , carried out  at Motahari Research station of Sugar beet Seed Research Institute ...
