- Abstract
This article presents information on the range of the damage done by the attack of sugar beet yellows in Great Britain in 1958. The threat of sugar beet yellow spread in 1958 across the country was limited by the wet, stormy weather in June and by the extensive spraying of sugar beet crops with systemic insecticide. In the 147 fields evaluated an average of 0.3, 4.2, 14.1 and 20.7 per cent of plants had yellows at the end of June, July, August and September respectively. As usual, yellows incidence at the end of September was highest in Suffolk, Essex and south Cambridgeshire in England. it was relatively low in west Norfolk and south Lincolnshire.
