The objective of this digestibility assessment was to determine whether there are significant differences in the digestibility of Roundup Ready (glyphosate-tolerant) and conventional sugar beet, fodder beet, and beet pulp produced from sugar beet varieties when fed to sheep (seven wethers per treatment group). Three experiments were conducted in this assessment. Experiment 1 (35 wethers) compar...

Concerns have been raised in Europe about the efficiency, sustainability, and environmental impact of the first genetically modified crops. The committees and regulators in charge of approving procedures have encouraged a field trial approach for safety assessment studies under current agronomic conditions. We describe the gene flow from sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) in a multi-year and multi-c...

sugar beet is an important crop from the point of production and consumption. in this case, fars province is one of the largest producers iniran. the purpose of this study was to determine the effective factors on sugar beet supply. accordingly, time series information of the crop was collected from 1990 to 2004 infarsprovince and were analyzed through nerlove partially adjustment model that is...

The EU sugar industry has a long tradition of maximising the use of co-products arising from the beet processing operation, all of which are used in productive applications. In fact, sugar factories are not only suppliers of sugar, but also produce other products, such as animal feed. All parts of the beet are used and converted into valuable products, without waste. These products are for the ...

Evaluation of Rhizoctonia zeae as a potential biological control option for fungal root diseases of sugar beet" (2015). Abstract Several common root diseases routinely damage sugar beet in Nebraska and other production areas of the Central High Plains, and it is becoming more common to find fields infested simultaneously with multiple pathogens. Owing to the shortage of available fungicides for...

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 Nematode (SBN), Heterodera schachtii, is one of the most destructive pests of sugar beets worldwide. It is present in all sugar beet growing areas of Wyoming and is particularly severe in fields located in close proximity to processing plants where sugar beets have been grown the longest. This soilborne, parasitic nematode attacks and destroys the small feeder roots of sugar beet pla...
