Agronomy JournalVolume 25, Issue 4 p. 237-258 Article Some Effects of Inbreeding in Sugar Beets1 George Stewart, George Stewart Formerly Agronomist, Utah Experiment Station; now Senior Ecologist, Intermountain Forest and Range Experiment Station, U. S. Forest Service, Ogden, Utah. The writer is glad to acknowledge his indebtedness to Wesley Keller, Agent, Sugar Plant Investigations, Bureau Plant Industry, U. S, Dept. of Agriculture, Logan, Utah, for having, as student assistant and later in his present position, taken most of the measurement data reported. Except in the first seasons, Mr. Keller has also been largely responsible for most of the field work. His capable and dependable labors are highly appreciated, and it is only fair to add that without them the work could not have gone forward. At intervals valuable assistance was also received from Professors D. W. Pittman and D. C. Tingey, Utah Agricultural Experiment Station. The Franklin County Sugar. Company (Idaho) and the Amalgamated Sugar Company (Utah) each generously made some hundreds of sugar tests for individual beets. One year the Amalgamated Sugar Company also made a large cash contribution to defray the cost of work done in the field. Doctors H. E. Brewbaker, F. V. Owen, and E. Carsner of the U S. Sugar Office have read this manuscript and have made many valuable suggestions. Thanks are extended to all who have helped.Search for more papers by this author George Stewart, George Stewart Formerly Agronomist, Utah Experiment Station; now Senior Ecologist, Intermountain Forest and Range Experiment Station, U.
