Seedling color and yield of sugar beets
1931
Nuckols, S.B.
All sugar beets carry some color pigment of either red or yellow color. This color is most distinct in the hypocotyl of the small plants during the first four weeks of growth. It is also readily discernible in the small leaf buds of the mature plants. The color of the young hypocotyl and the mature leaf buds is the same, therefore selection for this character may be made during any stage of growth of the plant. Color of plant does not seem to be correlated with either yield or sugar content in the varieties studied.
