in this research, the effect of crops such as corn, wheat, sugar beet and clover as previous crop on incidence of leaf and crown wart disease of sugar beet was studied. in the first year, corn, wheat, clover and sugar beet were planted as previous crop in a randomized complete block design with four replications. the amounts of turnover of nitrogen to the soil due to crop residue and their effe...

the purpose of this study is determining the factors affecting timeliness of machine operation at different stages of sugar beet production. farm-level data were collected from a sample of 227 sugar beet farmer located in three major districts of farsprovince ofiran: eghleed, marvdasht and fasa, selected by a random sampling method during 2006. for this purpose, the probit model was used. the r...

this experiment was conducted to evaluate eight new sugar beet genotypes with different drought tolerance responses to three irrigation schemes (including normal irrigation and early season and continuous stressed) in motahari research station of sugar beet seed institute (sbsi),karaj,iranduring 2005-2006. the study was accomplished in a split plot design (irrigation schemes and genotypes as ma...

All energy scenarios show a shift toward an increased percentage of renewable energy sources, including biomass. This study gives an overview of water footprints (WFs) of bioenergy from 12 crops that currently contribute the most to global agricultural production: barley, cassava, maize, potato, rapeseed, rice, rye, sorghum, soybean, sugar beet, sugar cane, and wheat. In addition, this study in...

Commercial sugarbeet yields range between 50 and 100 t clean beets/ha, with sugar concentrations of 17 to 18% on fresh weight (8 to 18 t sugar/ha; Milford, 2006). For 2010, beet yields in the U.S. averaged 62.2 t/ha. However, in the Imperial Valley (predominant cattle feeding region for the state of California), clean beet yields averaged 98.8 t/ha (USDA, 2010); 9 Imperial Valley beet growers t...

One hundred fifty rhizobacteria isolated from roots of Swiss chard grown in a soil suppressive to the sugar beet cyst nematode, Heterodera schachtii, were tested for their influence on the nematode's ability to hatch and infect roots. Two screening systems were used that focused on the ability of bacteria to inhibit either nematode hatching or root infection. Most of the bacterial strains reduc...

in order to study the reason for the prominent increase of the average of sugar content in sugar beet produced in iran in 2007 and finding the relation of this increase with climatic parameters, chenaran sugar factory district was chosen. due to precise and reliable statistical data of sugar factory during the campaign and weather data, chenaran sugar factory was chosen for this investigation. ...

Autoradiography was used to determine the distribution of labeled sugar in conducting elements of the blade and petiole of sugar beet leaves at intervals ranging from 5 sec to 24 hr. The processes of assimilation by the green cells, collection of sugar in the minor veins and export in phloem elements were demonstrated visually. It appears that in minor veins sugar is translocated in companion c...
