        To investigate the effects of cultivar and harvest date on quantitative and qualitative characteristics of autumn sown sugar beet, an experiment was conducted in Kashmar agricultural research station in 1389 - 1388. The experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with four replications and split plot arrangement. The main plots included four cultivars (7112, SBSI002, GIADA and RIZOFORT) and factors of subplot were three harvest dates (April 20th, May 10th and May 30th). The characteristics included root yield, bolt percentage, sugar content percentage, white sugar content percentage, sugar yield, white sugar yield, for each harvest Dates was measured. Results showed that among varieties of sugar beet, root yield, bolt percentage, sugar content percentage and white sugar content percentage, were different significantly. The Giada was the most suitable cultivar for Kashmar region because of the highest root yield ( 49.17 tons per hectare) and the lowest percent of bolting. All characteristics by harvest date were affected significantly. The interaction effect of cultivar and harvest date were significant on Root yield, Bolt percentage, Sugar content percentage, white sugar content percentage, sugar yield, white sugar yield. For achieving the highest Root yield, Sugar content percentage, white sugar content percentage, sugar yield, white sugar yield, the harvest date of May 30th is recommended for the Kashmar region.

        In this study, the effect of Lixusincanescens on five sugar beet cultivars on five sugar beet cultivars (Shkoofa, Flores, SyRobustus, Silvetta and HilleshogMonatunno) in the year 2019-2020. Sampling was performed every 8days from early July to mid-September. At each date, the experimental sample of larval damage on the petiole, the number of eggs and larvae were counted, and at the end of the experiment, the yield and sugar titer were analyzed. The results showed, the significant difference between larval damage on the petiole, the number of eggs and larvae, yield and sugar grade result on the studied cultivars at the level of five times the probability of meaning. The lowest larval damage index on petiole was in Shokof (2.5) and Silvetta (2.5), and the highest in Monatunno (6.25) and Flores (5.5); The lowest number of eggs per plant in Shokofa (2.25) and Silvetta (3.25) and the highest in Monatunno (5.25) and Flores (5) The lowest number of larvae in Shokofa (1.75) and Silvetta (75/75) and the highest was observed in Monatunno (6.25) and Flores (5) cultivars. The highest density of eggs and larvae was observed in the sixth (August 11) and seventh (August 19) sampling. The highest yield and sugar content were observed in Shokofa and Silvetta cultivars and the lowest in Monatunno and SyRobustus cultivars. The results of this experiment can indicate that Shkoofa and Silota dances can be the best option in virus management due to the least amount of petiole damage, egg and larval density.

        To investigate the effect of different seed primings on quantitative and qualitative characteristics of two sugar beet cultivars a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications, was carried out in both laboratory and field at the Agricultural and Natural Resources Research Center of West Azarbaijan province in 2015-16. The factors were two cultivars (Ekbatan and 7233) and five kinds of seed primings (seed hardening, priming with nano fertilizer, priming with pigeon manure extract, hydropriming and control). The results of combined analysis of variance showed that there were significant differences between genotypes for root yield and white sugar content. It was also, revealed that primings for all traits, except percent of sugar extraction, alkalinity and white sugar content, were significant. In this study, cultivar 7233, as compared with Ekbatan, produced higher root yield and sugar content. Furthermore, hydropriming produced higher germination percentage (96.50%), speed of germination (9.56 seeds/day), root yield (80.33 t.ha-1), sugars content (23.11%), sugar yield (18.38 t.ha-1) than other seed primings. Based on stepwise regression analysis, four traits, like sugars content, root yield, sugar extraction percentage and molasses sugar, justified 98% of white sugar yield variations. Thus, these four traits were identified as the most effective ones for white sugar yield. It can be, therefore, concluded that hydropriming would be a proper seed priming to improve the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of sugar beet.  Manuscript profile

        To Investigate the effect of super-adsorbent and irrigation levels on quantitative and qualitative characteristics Rastar cultivar of sugar beet a split plots experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replicas was conducted at the Agricultural University of Mahabad in 2017. Irrigation in three levels (Irrigation after 60, 120 and 180 mm evaporation from class A pan) is assigned to main plats and super-absorbents A200 in four levels (0, 50, 150 and 200 kg.ha-1) to the subplots. The simple effects of irrigation regime and superabsorbent on all traits, except for the coefficient of sugar extraction, was significant. The interaction of treatments were significant on the dry weight of shoot, sugar content, root yield, and sugar yield and white sugar yield. In this research, the highest leaf area index, root length, and leaf relative water content and the lowest amount of white sugar content belonged to irrigation after 60 mm evaporation. Application of 50 and 150 kg.ha-1 super-absorbent highly increased leaf area index, root length, and leaf relative water content while it decrease the percent of white sugar content. The highest shoot dry weight (3.97 t.ha-1), root yield (69.35 t.ha-1), sugar yield (10.51 t.ha-1) and white sugar yield (9.39 t.ha-1) and the lowest percentage of sugar (15.20%) caused by irrigation interval after 60 mm evaporation and using 200 kg.ha-1 super-absorbent. Interactions due to irrigation and use of super-absorbent showed that there was the non-significant difference between irrigation regime after 60 mm in control treatment (not applicable super-absorbent) with the application of 50, 150 and 200 kg.ha-1super-adsorbent in irrigation regime after 120 mm and application of 150 and 200 kg.ha-1super-absorbent in irrigation regime after 180 mm. Thus, using of 150 kg.ha-1 super-absorbent in irrigation regime after 180 mm evaporation can have similar white sugar yield as it was under irrigation regime after 60 mm in control treatment (not applicable super-absorbent) while saving about 8650 m3 per hectare by using this treatment.

        Drought stress is one of the main reasons for the reduction of quantitative and qualitative yield in sugar beet cultivation, on the other hand, the increasing reduction in available water, especially in arid and semi-arid regions, has made the worse situation. In this situation, the use of drought-resistant cultivars is an effective way to reduce production risk. For this purpose, experiments were conducted in the form of split plots in based of RCBD statistical design with the main factor of irrigation (90 and 180 mm) and sub-genotype factor (16 hybrids and 4 genotype control varieties) in the years 2016 and 2017 at Karaj Sugar Beet Research Institute. The results showed that there is a decreasing trend in the average root yield and white sugar yield in two years under stress conditions of 28.5 and 10.5%, respectively, compared to normal irrigation conditions. However, under stress conditions, sugar content had an increasing trend, and root impurity values (sodium and nitrogen) had a decreasing trend, which was accompanied by the highest values of the sugar extraction coefficient. Also, the reduction of water consumption in stressful conditions led to an increase in the efficiency of irrigation water in stressful conditions compared to normal. In the examination of genotypes, based on two indices of tolerance and resistance to drought stress and yield index, genotypes number 1, 3, 9, 12, and 16 were identified as promising genotypes.

        In order to evaluate quantitative and qualitative properties of three sugar beet cultivars (HI1059, Palma and Merac), an experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with four replications at Agricultural Research Center Safiabad in 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 growing seasons. The analysis of simple variance examined showed that in first year among varieties for the bolting, sugar content, alkalinity and white sugar content traits there significant difference, whereas in the second year of potassium, molasses sugar and white sugar content traits were significant differences. The result of the compound analysis in both years the effect year on bolting, sodium, potassium, amino-nitrogen, molasses sugar, white sugar content and extraction coefficient of sugar traits was significant. The result mean bolting (%) in the first year showed that in the HI1059 and Palma cultivars were 32.6% and 51.4%, respectively and in cultivar Merac, did not bolting happen, Whereas in the second year due to the weather moderation and absence of long cold any of the cultivars did not bolt. HI1059 cultivar of the most traits was higher than other cultivars. Depending on the climatic conditions experiment and the cultivation of sugar beet cultivar, there was differences in the number of plants bolting and the degree of their impact on formation and sugar molasses.
