in order to study the response of new sugar beet hybrids and cultivars to curly top disease in the field conditions, an experiment was carried out in a randomized complete block design with four replications and sixteen treatments in 2007 in fasa. each plot included a hybrid or cultivar planted in three rows with eight meter length and 50cm between- row spacing. after weeding and first thinning...

The influence of salinity on the different polyamine fractions (free, conjugated, and bound) was compared in a natrophilic halophyte (Beta vulgaris L. cv. IC) and a salt sensitive glycophyte (Nicotiana rustica L. cv. Basmas). Low-level salinity (25 mM NaCl) and high salinity (150 and 50 mM NaCl for sugar beet and tobacco, respectively) were supplied in hydroponics. Under low salinity shoot dry ...

Sugar beet pulp is a by-product from the processing of sugar beets into sugar. Beet pulp is extracted grounded sugar beet. It is used as livestock feed and it can be fed fresh, dried and ensiled (fermented beet pulp). Sugar beet pulp is a by-product from the processing of sugar beet which is used as fodder for cattle and other livestock. It is supplied either as dried flakes or as compressed pe...

in 2006 the sugar beet crop production iniranwas largest ever.  in this year, 6,603,383 t with average sugar content of 16.84% delivered to the 32 sugar factories during five months of the campaign. from begining of the campaign until early–november there was balance between the amount of sugar beet delivered and that of processed by the sugar factories.  however, delivered beet to the factorie...

Beet curly top virus (BCTV), genus Curtovirus, and other closely related curtoviruses transmitted by the beet leafhopper Circulifer tenellus (Baker) have caused significant problems to irrigated agriculture in the western United States for over a century (4). BCTV is known to infect a broad range of crop and weed hosts in many plant families (1). The leafhopper vector also feeds and breeds on a...

Sugar juices in the production of beet sugar contain complex varieties of colored materials that have not been identified completely. Color of the sugar depends the color of juices from which sugar is produced. The mechanisms concerning color formation in beet sugar processing are complicated due to many parameters involved. The main mechanisms related to the color formation during purification...

the present study was designed to evaluate the drought tolerance of new sugar beet monogerm hybrids using polyethylene glycol 6000, under in vitro condition. the experiment was carried out as a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with four replications in sugar beet seed institute, karaj in 2013. 23 new sugar beet monogerm hybrids with two tolerant and normal controls wer...
