Development of diploid pollinator for resistance to powdery mildew disease in sugar beet

Pycnocycla spinosa plant is of the Apiaceae family which germinates mostly in mountainous areas in Isfahan, Yazd, and Fars prov-inces. There is a significant amount of sucrose in the roots of this plant. To determine the best time for harvest, from the begin-ning of the growing season, roots were co...
