It is well-established in Arabidopsis and other species that ethylene inhibits root elongation through the action of auxin. In sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) ethylene promotes root elongation in a concentration dependent manner. However, the crosstalk between ethylene and auxin remains unknown during sugar beet seedling development. Our experiments have shown that exogenously applied auxin (indo...

to evaluate yield and productivity indices of maize and sugar beet intercropping with different planting ratios, a field experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design with three replication at hamedan province in nahavand, in 2013. the planting ratios were 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75 and 0:100 (maiz: sugar beet) using replacement method. results showed that intercropping had signi...

To determine if salt tolerance of grafted cucumber can be associated with the accumulation of organic solutes and inorganic solutes in the leaves and roots, a salt-sensitive cucumber cultivar Jinchun No. 2 (Cucumis sativus L.) was grafted onto the commercial salt-tolerant bottle gourd cultivar Chaofeng 8848 (Lagenaria siceraria Standl.). Grafted and ungrafted plants were grown in hydroponic sys...

Objective: Many agronomic practices may need to be adjusted to maximize yield and quality of sugar beet. Thus agronomic package must be always modified. This sutdy was laid out for evaluation of changes in carbohydrates and sugar yield in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) under different biofertilizers and irrigation closed time at Dorud region of Iran, during 2013. Methods: The experiment...

We previously demonstrated that xanthobaccin A from the rhizoplane bacterium Lysobacter sp. strain SB-K88 suppresses damping-off disease caused by Pythium sp. in sugar beet. In this study we focused on modes of Lysobacter sp. strain SB-K88 root colonization and antibiosis of the bacterium against Aphanomyces cochlioides, a pathogen of damping-off disease. Scanning electron microscopic analysis ...

water salinity and drought are the major abiotic stresses limiting turf grass growth. on the other hand, shortage of waterresources and salinity of water and soil in the arid and semi-arid zones such as iran, are the restricting factors in developinglawn turf grasses. an experiment was conducted to evaluate the combined effects of water salinity and deficit irrigation ontall fescue (festuca aru...

The bioassay conducted in controlled conditions was used to investigate the sensitivity of selected crops (maize, sunflower, wheat, sugar beet, oilseed rape and mustard) imazethapyr carryover. dešendence whole protein content test plants roots measured regard different concentrations soil. rates were established at 240, 120, 60, 30, 15, 7.5, 3.75 1.875 mg A.I. kg-1 soil (ppbw). After sowing, gr...

Abstract The effect of marine calcite, a mixture ortho- and polysilicic acid as well orthosilicic applied foliar spray on the chemical composition sugar beet leaves in critical phase nutrient supply (beginning July) but also roots during harvest time 2015–2016, was studied. content silicon ranged from 1.24 to 2.36 g kg −1 d.m. at beginning July, 3.85–5.34 2.91–4.20 roots. application caused sig...

introduction: conventional technology of sugar production from sugar beet roots consists of the next subsequent steps: sugar beet slicing, thermal denaturation of the sliced beet roots followed by diffusion in hot water at 70–75 _c, purification of extracted juice by lime, concentration of purified juice and crystallization. the diffusion process is one of the most important steps that effect o...
