sugar beet cyst nematode (heterodera schachtii schmidt) is transferred to sugar factories along with the sugar beet root and its surrounding soil, so called depot soil. because of high infestation and the possible transfer and distribution of this soil, disinfestations of the depot soil should be taken into considerations. in order to assess the possibility for disinfestations of the depot soil...

Coastal Bermuda grass (CBG) has been shown to have potential as a biomass feedstock for sugar production. In this study, the effectiveness of ozone pretreatment for CBG to improve the sugar recovery via enzyme hydrolysis was investigated. Raw CBG and autohydrolysistreated CBG were pretreated with ozone at ozone consumption of 1.8 to 26.4 % (w/w) at room temperature. Lignin degradation and hemic...

The study was conducted as open field trial, with irrigation, the Clery strawberry variety. aim of to investigate effect foliar application on berry and seaweed extract yield quality fruit (sugar, acid anthocyanin content). experiment set up by random block system in 4 repetitions. following treatments were applied crop: 1. control, 2. conventional NPK fertilization (10-52-10), 3. 30% reduced f...

this research was done in hydroponic environment in greenhouse at 3 stages (vegetative, flowering and full product) in 5 concentrations of cd (0.1, 0.3, 0.9, 2.7, and 10 mm) for investigating physiological and biological effects. this study revealed that the increase of cd concentration in understudy treatments causes the 49% reduction of sugar solution in 10 mm treatment. on the other hand, th...

biological control of sugar beet damping-off of rhizoctonia solani ag-4 by two native streptomyces isolates (s2 and c) was evaluated in green house and field conditions. in dual culture, two streptomyces isolates inhibited mycelial growth of r. solani ag-4. besides, volatile components of s2 and c inhibited r. solani mycelial growth for 72 and 74 percentages, respectively. soil treatment either...

background and objectives: over the last two decades, a large number of researches have been conducted regarding the importance of nitrogen in sugar beet. this indicate that there were needs to investigate more on nitrogen management to achive higher production and quality because less nitrogen application result in reducing yield and high nitrogen application would increase production costs an...

The lactose transport protein (LacS) of Streptococcus thermophilus is a chimeric protein consisting of an amino-terminal carrier domain and a carboxyl-terminal phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS) IIA protein domain. The histidine residues of LacS were changed individually into glutamine or arginine residues. Of the 11 histidine residues present in LacS, only the His-376 su...

BACKGROUND Trigonella foenum-graecum (fenugreek) seeds are known to exhibit potent antioxidant, hypoglycemic, and nephroprotective activities, as well as serve as excellent membrane stabilizers especially because of their content of novel furostanolic saponins. Our previous studies exhibited the broad spectrum safety and efficacy of Fenfuro, a novel T. foenum-graecum seed extract enriched in fu...
