in order to evaluate the efficiency of empirical competition models for simulation of sugar beet (beta vulgaris l.) yield at interference with redroot pigweed (amaranthus retroflexus l.), a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was carried out. factors were weed densities (d1=1, d2= 4, d3= 8, d4=12 and d5=16 plants m-1 of row) and relative time o...

Legumes are an alternative to animal foods due their high protein content. Like other legumes, Vicia faba (faba bean) has However, bean breeding with classical methods is challenging inbreeding depression, self-incompatibility, and abortive embryo formation. The inadequacy of the problems in fertilization biology plant limits production new varieties. Therefore, importance using vitro haploidiz...

intercropping is a correct method of management for crop production and leads to improvement of resource absorption and use by plants. in order to evaluate light interception and some characteristics of canopy in monocropping and intercropping of maize (zea mays l.) and faba bean (vicia faba l.) under climatic conditions of tabriz, a field experiment was conducted in 2006-2007 at the research s...

Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L. ssp. vulgaris) is one of the most important European crops for both food and sugar production. Crop improvement has been developed to enhance productivity, sugar content or other breeder's desirable traits. The introgression of traits from Crop Wild Relatives (CWR) has been done essentially for lessening biotic stresses constraints, namely using Beta and Patellifoli...

Faba beans (Vicia faba L.) constitute a partially outcrossing species requiring an isolation distance to maintain genetic purity when more than one variety is grown in field conditions. This information crucial for seed growers and bean breeders. A study was conducted at the University of Sydney’s Plant Breeding Institute, Narrabri, over two years examine extent natural using creamy white flowe...

Objective: Many agronomic practices may need to be adjusted to maximize yield and quality of sugar beet. Thus agronomic package must be always modified. This sutdy was laid out for evaluation of changes in carbohydrates and sugar yield in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) under different biofertilizers and irrigation closed time at Dorud region of Iran, during 2013. Methods: The experiment...

Guard cells, epidermal cells, palisade parenchyma cells, and spongy parenchyma cells of Vicia faba L. leaflet were analyzed for inorganic phosphate and phosphorus. On a molar basis, cells in the epidermal layer contained about 15-fold more inorganic phosphate than mesophyll cells did. Although a metabolic role for this asymmetric distribution cannot be defined unequivocally, we note that high e...

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...

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)/faba bean (Vicia faba L.) intercropping shows significant overyielding and high nitrogen (N)-use efficiency, but the dynamics of plant interactions have rarely been estimated. The objective of the present study was to investigate the temporal dynamics of competitive N acquisition between intercropped wheat and faba bean with the logistic model. Wheat and faba bean w...
