e0“Effects of boron as an essential nutrient for sugar beet along with gamma irradiation was traced under field conditions”
e2“It seems that root dry weight tended to increase gradually with increasing gamma dose 0 to 100 Gy, then tended to decrease with 200 Gy dose but it still increased with gradual increases of boron levels”

Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Gamma irradiation significantly increased fresh and dry root yields of sugar beet compared with non-irradiated plants.
- Intervention effect Boron levels significantly increased fresh and dry root yields of sugar beet compared with boron-untreated plants.
- Intervention effect Root dry weight tended to decrease at the 200 Gy gamma dose.
- Intervention effect Root dry weight still increased with gradual increases of boron levels.
- Intervention effect The best root dry weight was achieved with 100 Gy combined with 2.40 kg/ ha boron.
- Intervention effect Plants exposed to 50 Gy and treated with 2.40 kg/ ha boron had the highest shoot dry matter yield compared with other treatments.
- Intervention effect The 50 Gy with 2.40 kg/ ha boron treatment increased shoot dry weight by about one to two fold.
- Observation NPK uptake by shoots followed the same trend as the shoot dry matter response.
- Intervention effect Plants irradiated with 100 Gy together with 2.40 kg boric acid per ha had the highest total soluble solids.
- Intervention effect Plants irradiated with 100 Gy together with 2.40 kg boric acid per ha produced the best per cent of sucrose.
