Water-Energy-Food (WEF) Nexus and CO2 emissions for a farm in northwest Iran were analyzed to provide data support decision-makers formulating national strategies response climate change. In the analysis, input–output energy production of seven crop species (alfalfa, barley, silage corn, potato, rapeseed, sugar beet, wheat) was determined using six indicators, water, consumption, mass productiv...

Different mixed cultures of Trichoderma reesei and a yeast were cultivated on beet pulp (BP)-containing medium. T. reesei and Kluyveromyces marxianus offered a combination that gave high SCP yields (51%) and efficiently converted BP into proteins (39.4%). The yeast extract in the basal medium could be substituted and the BP level multiplicated from 2 to 4% upon using mixed culture of T. reesei ...

Goal. Establish the size of accumulation root mass, symbiotic nitrogen by alfalfa, soil fertility and balance essential nutrients in cultivation alfalfa-cereal mixtures under action lime fertilizers. Methods. Field, laboratory, mathematical statistical. Results. The results research on perennial grasses nitrogen, cellulase activity, erosion resistance changes fertility, as well alfalfa cereal a...

Aim of study: In this study, the effect lignocellulosic filler and coupling agent amount on physical mechanical properties produced sugar beet pulp/LDPE composites were researched.
 Material methods: Wood-plastic using compression molding method. The (maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene) (density water uptake analyses) (tensile strength, tensile modulus, elongation at break, flexural imp...

beet armyworm,spodoptera exigua (hübner) (lep.: noctuidae), is a polyphagous insect pest inflicting substantial economic damage to many crops including corn, cotton, beet, tomato, celery, lettuce and alfalfa. in this study the effect of 10 commercial hybrids of corn (sc700, dc370, sc704, sc260, sc500, keynes540, keynes410, ksc260, ksc400 and ksc301) on the beet armyworm was investigated through...

Belowground symptoms of sugar beet caused by the beet cyst nematode (BCN) Heterodera schachtii include the development of compensatory secondary roots and beet deformity, which, thus far, could only be assessed by destructively removing the entire root systems from the soil. Similarly, the symptoms of Rhizoctonia crown and root rot (RCRR) caused by infections of the soil-borne basidiomycete Rhi...

AIMS To determine the fermentation profiles by human gut bacteria of arabino-oligosaccharides of varying degree of polymerization. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sugar beet arabinan was hydrolyzed with a commercial pectinase and eight fractions, of varying molecular weight, were isolated by gel-filtration chromatography. Hydrolysis fractions, arabinose, arabinan and fructo-oligosaccharides were fermen...

In modern endodontics, vital pulp therapy (VPT) has been considered an ultra-conservative treatment modality. Based on the level of pulp preservation, VPT includes stepwise excavation, indirect pulp capping (IDPC), direct pulp capping (DPC), miniature pulpotomy (MP), partial/Cvek pulpotomy and coronal/complete pulpotomy (CP). The present article reviews the treatment outcomes of 94 permanent te...
