Abstract

The effect of gamma radiation on seed, and water stress on quantitative and qualitative yield of different sugar beet genotypes was evaluated in Qom and Eslamshahr locations. The experiment was performed in split plot factorial based on randomized complete block design with three replications. The irrigation factor as the first factor included two levels of normal and low irrigation stress in main plots, the second factor included four sugar beet genotypes of Ekbatan, Motahar, Paya, and maternal line of Paya and the third factor included five levels of gamma radiation on seed including control, 50, 100, 200 and 400 Gy in subplots. Results showed that there was a significant difference between two  locations for most of the traits, so that Eslamshahr had higher root yield and more favorable condition than Qom. The effect of irrigation rate × genotype interaction on white sugar yield showed that under normal irrigation, Ekbatan, Motahar and Paya genotypes obtained the highest white sugar yield, which were statistically placed in a same group; however, under low irrigation stress, Paya had the highest white sugar yield. Results also showed that the application of gamma radiation with 100 and 400 Gy resulted in the increase and decrease of white sugar yield, respectively. Therefore, the use of appropriate gamma radiation dose rates can play a significant role in increasing the yield of sugar beet.
