	Stephen Nottingham: Beetroot - Chapter 3
		The cultivated forms of Beta vulgaris are leaf beets (spinach beet and chard), beetroot (table beet or garden beet), fodder beet and sugar beet.
		Beta patellaris (referred to as Beta campanulata by Vilmorin in 1923) is found in patches (up to 1.5 m diameter) in coastal and low-lying dry rock areas throughout the Canary Islands, and also in south-east Spain, near Almeria, and some coastal areas of Morocco.
		Beta taxonomists, however, have suggested that it would be better, and less confusing, if all infraspecific classification for cultivated Beta vulgaris were done using the non-hierarchical horticultural classification system.

	Stephen Nottingham: Beetroot - Chapter 1
		Beta vulgaris was first domesticated for its leaves and leaf stems (petioles).
		The cultivation of Beta vulgaris is described in Chapter Four, with an emphasis on beetroot in gardens and allotments.
		Beta vulgaris has been considered a medicinal plant since ancient times, while the seventeenth-century herbalists ascribed many beneficial effects to its leaves and roots.

		The main varieties of Beta vulgaris are Crassa, which is the ordinary garden beet with thickened root; Cruenta, with root that is not highly developed but foliage that is large and showy; and Cicla with small branched roots not thick or fleshy and with very large, thick-ribbed leaves.
		Sugar beet is native to Europe to Middle east, originating in the areas surrounding the Mediterranean Sea following selective breeding of Sea beet (Beta vulgaris maritime).

	Beta vulgaris (Chard, Beetroot, Sugarbeet, Mangel-wurzel)
		All the varieties of this domestic species ultimately originate from wild Sea Beet Beta maritima which is indigenous to the Mediterranean and the Atlantic seaboard of Europe.
		Varieties of Beta vulgaris were produced through selective cultivation of See Beet Beta maritima which is indigenous to the Mediterranean and the Atlantic seaboard of Europe as far north as the Baltic.
		It was referred to by Aristotle in about 350 BC and was probably cultivated well before this.

		Comparison of genetic variability on population level showed that the B. vulgaris related wild beets ('v.-type') originated from different degrees of hybridization and naturalization events between cultivated forms of B. vulgaris ssp.
		As a group, the v.-type wild beet in California should be classified as B. vulgaris ssp.
		Additionally, we found substantial evidence for hybridization and gene introgression of B. vulgaris alleles in one wild B. macrocarpa accession in California, indicating gene flow between these two species.

		Sucrose content was weakly associated with sucrose synthase activity and was unassociated with alkaline or acid invertase activities, suggesting that other factors are involved in the regulation of root sucrose concentration.
		Technical Abstract: The functions of the major sucrolytic enzymes in sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris L.) roots are poorly understood, although a positive association between sucrose synthase activity and root size, and a negative association between soluble acid invertase activity and sucrose concentration have been documented.
		Although no new insights into the functions of acid and alkaline invertases were gained, these results indicate that sucrose synthase activity is a reliable indicator of root yield and may be a factor in root sink strength and the promotion of cell wall biosynthesis.

		Technical Abstract: Leaves of greenhouse-grown sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) plants that were first screened for high regeneration potential were transformed via particle bombardment with the uidA gene fused to the osmotin or proteinase inhibitor II gene promoter.
		The main advantages of direct bombardment of leaves to regenerate transformed sugar beet include 1) an abundant source of target tissues, 2) minimal tissue culture manipulation, and 3) the overall rapid regeneration of transgenic shoots.
