The study was conducted to investigate the potential of Parkia biglobosa fruit pulp as substrate for citric acid production by Aspergillus niger. Reducing sugar was estimated by 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid and citric acid was estimated spectrophotometrically using pyridine-acetic anhydride methods. The studies revealed that production parameters (pH, inoculum size, substrate concentration, incuba...

in order to study the effect of sowing date and plant density on some quantitative traits and yield of sugar beet genotypes a field experiment was carried out at sugar beet seed production research station of karaj in 2006. treatments arranged in a split, split plot experiment based on completely randomized block design with four replications. the main factors were two sowing dates as 14 april ...

drip irrigation is the most efficient technique known for improving irrigation water management. a two-year study was conducted to determine the effects of drip and furrow irrigation methods on yield and quality of sugar beet in north of khuzestan. in the first year, the experimental design was a completely randomized block design with three replications. treatments were, three drip irrigation ...

the main objective of this research was the measurement of soil characteristics, land evaluation and determination of potential yield of sugar beet in yekanat plain of marand. for doing this, firstly, yield potential of sugar beet was estimated by fao method and secondly land evaluation of different soil units for sugar beet cultivation was determined by parametric method. results showed that m...

the sugar beet plant has a conical-shaped root and at harvest the tap-root breaks which remains in the soil. as a result, a significant amount of root yield and consequently sugar content is lost. furthermore, the field soil remains in the root fissures and is carried with the root to sugar factory. in rhizomania and nematode-infested areas, the soil movement causes the disease wide spread. in ...

BACKGROUND The Hip and Knee Registry is an observational database comprising data on practices of US orthopedic surgeons during 1996 to 2001. We examined trends in the use of prophylaxis for venous thromboembolism (VTE) among patients who underwent primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) or total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS Data on 9,327 THA and 13,846 TKA patients were submitted between 19...

powdery mildew disease caused quality and quantity losses of sugar beet production. therefore, five spraying treatments and three sugar beet variety were conducted in split plot design with four reapplications during consecutive two years in kermanshah and mashhad regions. in order to control of disease, tridimorph fungicide was used. spraying treatments were in main plot and variety in the sub...
