this study aimed to modify the current purchase formula of sugar beet into a formula with different coefficients with respect to sugar percentage of autumn sugar beet. ahvaz sugar factory was selected as an autumn sowing factory in iran and 163 samples were randomly taken at different delivery times in 2007 (28th april to 27th june).  from each truck, one sample was taken and sugar content, wat...

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...

Water stress causes defoliation, which can reduce yield and root quality of sugar beets (Beta vulgaris L.) through altered gas exchange characteristics of the leaves. In a two-year experiment, three sugar beet cultivars (Europa, Rival and Corsica) were subjected to three defoliation levels (control-C, moderate-MD, severe-SD) and re-watering after their exposition to drought for a month. Leaf ph...

in this study, the growth of two strains pseudomonas fluorescens vupf5 and p. fluorescens vupf5-1 (mutant bacterium similar to mutants of regulatory gacs/gaca system) were evaluated in the organic media. this spontaneous mutation blocked biosynthesis of the antimicrobial compounds hydrogen cyanide, phenazine and exoprotease by biocontrol strain pseudomonas fluorescens vupf5. by using organic me...
