- Title
SUGAR BEET YELLOWS IN GREAT BRITAIN, 1962.
- Authors

- Abstract
This article focuses on the development of sugar beet yellows in plants in Great Britain in 1962. Plants with yellows were scarce but most fields then showed groups of infected plants. The yellow patches did not increase much in size during the autumn and they remained a striking feature of the crop. Green aphids were few on sugar beet. These aphids also infested sugar beet and mangold stecklings. They thrived on the young plants, and in unprotected steckling beds all plants were soon infected with yellows. Growers sprayed with systematic insecticide, either to control black aphids or as a precaution against green aphids spreading yellows.
