“…The superiority of a specific sugar beet variety in particular of traits under specific agricultural conditions could be attributed to its genetic make-up which enables it to respond differently to the changed environmental conditions, available nutrients and light interception, and thus affects its photosynthetic capacity and partitioning of photoassimilates. These results are in agreement with previously reported findings (Abu-Ellail et al 2019;Mekdad 2012;Sahar and Salem 2016).…”

Sugar beet is the most important sugar crop that can be grown commercially in a wide variety of temperate regions. The beet sugar industry in the tropical and subtropical regions, which are mostly developing countries is growing as an important component of sugar production. A field experiment was conducted at Delta Sugar Company Research Farm, El-Hamool, Kafr El-Sheikh, Egypt to evaluate the response of sugar beet varieties to inter-and intra-row distances. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed significant effects of inter-and intra-row distances on all studied traits, i.e., sucrose content (Pol%), Na%, K%, α-amino-N%, quality index (Qz)%, root yield (RY), recoverable sugar (RS)%, recoverable sugar yield (RSY), sugar loss (SL)% and sugar loss yield (SLY) either in one or both growing seasons except for the effect of inter-row planting distances on Na% and loss sugar yield in both growing seasons. The results revealed that increasing the inter-row planting distance from 50 to 60 cm led to a significant reduction in sucrose content, Na%, RY, RS% and RSY. However, increasing the inter-row planting distance from 50 to 60 cm is associated with a significant reduction in the Qz%, RS%, SL% and SLY. Increasing the intra-row planting distances from 10 to 15 cm led to a significant reduction in sucrose%, Na%, Qz% and RS%. Additionally, significant variations in all studied traits were observed among varieties.The interactions between the studies factors and varieties exhibited significant effects on all studied traits. Planting the variety Garrot at 15 and 50 cm intraand inter-row distances produced the highest Qz%, RY and RSY. The lowest SLY resulted from planting the sugar beet variety Husam at 10 and 60 cm intra-and inter-row planting distances. The results of the present study of great importance for a sustainable production of sugar beet in Egypt.

“…Beet and cane sugar contribute to around 60 and 40%, respectively, of the annual total world sugar production (FAO 2023). Sugar consumption has increased over the last ten years, leading to a need to increase sugar production by expanding the cultivated area and improving root yield (Galal et al 2022a;Ahmed 2023;Abu-Ellail et al 2024).…”

Water shortage in dry and semi-arid regions is a major agricultural challenge. This study investigated the performance of ten imported monogerm sugar beet varieties under continuous deficiency irrigation using a drip system on a private farm in the Wadi El-Natrun region, El-Beheira Governorate, Egypt, during two growing seasons, 2021/2022 and 2022/2023. The study utilized a novel method, a crossbar graph, to effectively visualize statistical data. The results showed significant interaction effects between sugar beet varieties and water deficit levels for all traits, indicating varying responses of the varieties to different levels of drought stress (75% and 55%). Drought stress levels (75% and 55%) had an adverse effect on the root yield of the ten varieties of sugar beet that were investigated. The exploratory factor analysis was applied to investigate and describe the relationship between ten different varieties of sugar beet and water stress treatments. Varieties Symbol, Stikhiyn, Volua, and Klara were characterized as moderate and tolerant with high performance, and they received the highest score in factor analysis. These varieties are recommended for cultivation under moderate and severe stress conditions. Factor analysis scores can be used as selection criteria for sugar beet varieties.
