Sweet corn (Zea mays L.) producers desire high yields and high sugar content in the endosperm. High irrigation levels result in high yield, but their effect on sugar content is unclear. The effects of two irrigation levels, standard and stressed on endosperm sugar content were evaluated using three sugary1 hybrids over 2 years. No significant differences were found among the treatments when ave...

in order to estimate the reducing sugar in tubers of potato by using a manual glucose determiner, an experiment was conducted in factorial arrangement based on completely randomized design with three replications. in this research reducing sugar of four cultivars of potato – agria, sante, with two methods: enzymatic and a manual glucose determiner. the results picaso and kizer – that maintained...

in process of sucrose determination in sugar beet, pulp analysis by polarometric method is done on the basis of fresh root weight .the volume of the juice of 26 grams of the pulp is considered 23 ml that with 177 ml of clarifying agent would be 200 ml. drought stress and dehydrated root reduce. the volume of the pulp extract of 23 ml. the objective of this experiment was to determine the proper...

sugarcane bagasse contains cellulose, lignin and hemicellulose, 39-42%, 20-25% and 25-27% respectively. so it is can be used as a sugar source in many processes. lignin and hemicellulose must be removed before hydrolysis of cellulose. several different pretreatment approaches have been studied. the purpose of this research is comparison of acid, ozone and combination of ozone-acid as pretreatme...

to study the effect of salinity stress on some physiological attributes of four grape cultivars in vineyards of urmia in iran, an experiment was carried out as factorial arrangement in randomized complete block design with four replications. experimental factors included: grape cultivars qazel ozum, qareh shireh, tabrzeh and dizmari, and salt concentrations 0, 25, 50 and 100 mmol l-1 and locati...

in some regions of isfahan, although there is no soil and water salinity limitations, quality of sugar beet root is very low because of using high amount of irrigation water. a study was conducted to determine the relation between low irrigation and quality and quantity of sugar beet. in this study, a line source irrigation system for six water use treatments (from 10770 to 8554 m3/hec) was use...

This paper reports on the use of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and Partial Least Squareregression (PLS) combined with NIR spectroscopy (900-1700 nm) to design calibration models for thedetermination of sugar content in sugar beet. In this study a total of 80 samples were used as the calibration set,whereas 40 samples were used for prediction. Three pre-processing methods, including Multiplic...
