Download or read book The Sugar Beet Crop written by D.A. Cooke and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 683 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: D.A. Cooke and R.K. Scott Sugar beet is one of just two crops (the other being sugar cane) which constitute the only important sources of sucrose - a product with sweeten ing and preserving properties that make it a major component of, or additive to, a vast range of foods, beverages and pharmaceuticals. Sugar, as sucrose is almost invariably called, has been a valued compo nent of the human diet for thousands of years. For the great majority of that time the only source of pure sucrose was the sugar-cane plant, varieties of which are all species or hybrids within the genus Saccharum. The sugar-cane crop was, and is, restricted to tropical and subtropical regions, and until the eighteenth century the sugar produced from it was available in Europe only to the privileged few. However, the expansion of cane production, particularly in the Caribbean area, in the late seventeenth and the eighteenth centuries, and the new sugar-beet crop in Europe in the nineteenth century, meant that sugar became available to an increasing proportion of the world's population.
Book Synopsis Seed Development in Monogerm Sugar Beets (Beta Vulgaris L.) as Influenced by Certain Nutrients by : Leland Ray Schweitzer
Download or read book Seed Development in Monogerm Sugar Beets (Beta Vulgaris L.) as Influenced by Certain Nutrients written by Leland Ray Schweitzer and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The influence of several fertilizer elements on the occurrence of underdeveloped seeds in monogerm sugar beets (Beta vulgaris L.) was studied. Lime (CaCO3), nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer applications were made to sugar beet seed plots at two locations in the Willamette Valley, Oregon. Seed produced from each treatment was examined by radiography to determine the percentage of fruits containing underdeveloped seeds. Underdeveloped seeds include those which are completely absent from the fruit locule and those which are only partially developed. High nitrogen fertilization negatively influenced seed development, causing an increase in the occurrence of underdeveloped seeds. A larger difference in underdeveloped seeds was noted, however, between the two experimental locations. Lime, phosphorus and potassium applications had no apparent influence on seed development. Experimental locations and nitrogen fertilizer levels influenced the concentrations of several nutrient elements in the sugar beet petioles. But no association was apparent between plant nutritional status and the occurrence of underdeveloped seeds. It was concluded that inadequate or imbalanced fertilizer applications were not the primary factors impeding sugar beet seed development. Although excess nitrogen fertilization was detrimental to seed development, it accounted for only a fraction of the total underdeveloped seeds obtained.

Download or read book Beta maritima written by Enrico Biancardi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-27 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, now in its second edition, provides researchers and operators a complete description of all aspects regarding the wild ancestor of sugar beet. The possibility of crossing modern crops with the ancestors from which they are derived in order to recover some traits lost through domestication is increasingly attracting interest. The selective process implemented by the first growers led to the elimination of features not considered useful at the time. Yet some of these lost traits have now become very important. In fact, in many areas sugar beet cultivation would now be impossible without the transfer of some genetic resistances from Beta maritima, the crop’s ancestor. Moreover, the isolation of such traits is becoming increasingly critical with regard to current and future environmental and economic considerations on e.g. the use of pesticides. This second edition replaces certain photographs and has been updated to reflect the latest advances and findings. One chapter and several sections have been rewritten, and significant revisions have been made throughout the text. The new techniques provide breeders with massively improved analytical means for the safest and fastest selection procedures. Not only will these techniques allow Beta maritima to take on a far greater role as a source of favorable traits; the relative ease with which these characteristics can be transferred will also make it possible to use the germplasm of the whole genus Beta and Patellifolia, which to date has been highly complex, if not impossible, due to the difficulties of hybridization.
Download or read book Rhizomania written by Enrico Biancardi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-20 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The knowledge of ecology and epidemiology of rhizomania is particularly useful to understand the means and practices able to limit or avoid its further diffusion. Some promising methods of biological control using coexisting and non-pathogenic organisms could potentially help improve the action of the not completely effective genetic resistances. This integrated protection would be valuable, especially in the even more frequent development of resistance–breaking strains in the BNYVV, where the known types of resistance, alone or in combination, seem to have lost part of their original ability to protect the crop. Therefore, further efforts will be needed to discover new traits likely still present in the wild species of the genus Beta. The availability of large collections of germplasm stored in the International Beta gene-banks should ensure the enhanced efficiency of genetic resistance by means of conventional and marker-assisted selection methods. Some almost immune transgenic varieties seem already to be waiting for release where and when it will be possible. The introduction chapter describes briefly the sugar beet crop, the more common diseases, and the damage caused by rhizomania. The following chapters discuss biological properties of the causal virus, BNYVV, and its vector, Polymyxa betae, and their interactions with the environment and the host-plant. In particular, the great advances in research of the molecular biology of BNYVV should be noteworthy, which have been established by a wide range of the most modern methods. Recent work focused on the genetic diversity and evolution of BNYVV is moving forward our understanding of the dramatic worldwide epidemics of rhizomania. Newly developed molecular techniques also lead to practical applications, such as quantification of inoculum in ecological and epidemiological research.

Book Synopsis Environment and Plant Metabolism by : N. Smirnoff
Download or read book Environment and Plant Metabolism written by N. Smirnoff and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 1995 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This best-selling volume considers the response of plants to environmental stress from a metabolic perspective. Plants are exposed to continually and rapidly-changing environmental factors. Light, temperature, water and nutrient availability fluctuate seasonally and even from hour to hour and these have a major impact on plant growth and crop productivity. This book focuses on how such environmental factors interact with the processes of metabolic regulation in plant cells leading to changes in fluxes through pathways of primary metabolism and the activation of new pathways.
Book Synopsis Root and Tuber Crops by : J.E. Bradshaw
Download or read book Root and Tuber Crops written by J.E. Bradshaw and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-09-11 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is important to include Tuber and Root Crops in the Handbook of Plant Breeding. They include starchy staple crops that are of increasing importance for global food security and relief of poverty, important millennium goals for the United Nations. Indeed, 2008 was the UN International Year of the Potato in recognition of this role of the potato as the world’s third most important food crop after wheat and rice. The other major staples are cassava, sweetpotato and yam. Together they occupy about 50 million hectares, with production at 640 million metric tons, of which 70% is in developing countries. In total there are more than 30 species of Root and Tuber Crops grown in the world today. Given the content of other volumes in the series, it makes sense to include sugar and fodder beets; swedes and turnips; and minor root and tuber crops so that the book series is as complete as possible. Like the other volumes in the series, this one will present information on the latest in applied plant breeding using the current advances in the field, from an efficient use of genetic resources to the impact of biotechnology in plant breeding. Seven crop specific chapters are proposed, together with an introduction to this diverse set of plant species. Outstanding scientists for each crop species are proposed as senior authors, who may invite co-authors to contribute part of a chapter. In order to increase the overall acceptance of the volume, balance will be sought with authors from different research groups/countries who will be asked to contribute and collaborate where appropriate. The book should be of interest to researchers in both academic and industrial settings, and in both developed and developing countries, as well as students and teachers of plant breeding. It is currently extremely important to educate and train a new generation of plant breeders given the challenges faced by humankind in producing more food for an expanding global population during a period of environmental (including climate) change.
