Özet
The aim of this study was to compare seed germination percentage, seedling growth, total chlorophyll and protein content, sugar content, and root and sugar yields of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) genotypes at different ploidy levels. Sugar beet seeds from cultivars “Agnessa” and “Felicita” (diploids), and lines “AD 440” and “CBM 315” (tetraploids) were obtained from the Sugar Research Institute, Etimesgut, Ankara. Seed germination percentage was recorded after 4 days, whereas seedling and root lengths were noted 4 and 14 days after the study initiation. The size of epidermal cells in length and width were determined on the upper leaf surface of 6-week-old plants. Six and 10 weeks after seed sowing, plant and root lengths, leaf length and width, plant fresh and dry weights, and total chlorophyll and protein content were measured. Data related to yield components such as sugar content, root and sugar yields were …
