Infections in #sugarbeet leaves with the beet mosaic #virus can be visualized using a betalain transcription factor. Infected cells acquire a bright red pigment and can be clearly seen without the use of any equipment, a useful method for studying virus biology and to quantify disease severity.

Today on my personal blog I share how I made sugar from homegrown sugar beet. I have included the method I went about it in case anyone wants to try it for themselves at home.

This is insane.

With #Brexit, England's #SugarBeet farmers lost legal protections against cheap #SugarCane imports, and the Brexiteer government exacerbated the problem by agreeing to massive tariff-free quotas of cane.

Now said government is, contrary to European environmental norms, sanctioning the continued use of a bee-killing insecticide designed to target aphids that dine on beet leaves.

Lunacy.

It’s #sugarbeet season! Here #BritishSugar are orchestrating the weather in #Suffolk. Clouds pluming out of the chimney visible from the #A14 - it was a clear blue day to the west, but thick mist for our family walk 15 miles east of here yesterday.
