Description
Summary:•Non-destructive sucrose determination is important in sugar beet breeding programs.•Sucrose determination by near-infrared spectroscopy at 1393 nm had high correlation with sucrose content.•Near-Infrared Spectroscopy is recommended for sucrose determination in sugar beet. Determination of sucrose content in sugar beet root by Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIR) is a rapid, environment friendly and accurate which has been widely used by researchers in recent years. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of root size, peeling and points of spectral recording on sucrose content determination in sugar beet. Therefore, study was conducted in a factorial (3 × 2 × 4) based on completely randomized design with 22 replications. Sixty-six sugar beet roots were weighted based on three different size criteria including small (
