Kandel S, Eide J, Firrincieli A, Finger F, Lafta A, Fugate K
Sci Rep . 2024 Nov; 14(1):27235. PMID: 39516509
Storage rots are a significant cause of postharvest losses for the sugar beet crop, however, intrinsic physiological and genetic factors that determine the susceptibility of roots to pathogen infection and...

Dogramaci M, Sarkar D, Finger F, Shetty K, Fugate K
Front Plant Sci . 2024 Jun; 15:1384602. PMID: 38867884
Introduction: Unintended wounding or bruising during harvest or postharvest handling leads to significant tuber loss and imposes economic burden to potato industry. Therefore, finding effective strategies to mitigate wound-related tuber...

Fugate K, Eide J, Lafta A, Tehseen M, Chu C, Khan M, et al.
Front Plant Sci . 2024 Feb; 15:1320705. PMID: 38352647
Endogenous metabolism is primarily responsible for losses in sucrose content and processing quality in postharvest sugarbeet roots. The genes responsible for this metabolism and the transcriptional changes that regulate it,...

Fugate K, Finger F, Lafta A, Dogramaci M, Khan M
Front Plant Sci . 2023 Jan; 13:1070247. PMID: 36684748
Injuries sustained by sugarbeet ( L.) roots during harvest and postharvest operations seriously reduce the yield of white sugar produced from stored roots. Although wound healing is critically important to...

Finger F, Eide J, Lafta A, Khan M, Dogramaci M, Fugate K
PeerJ . 2021 Jun; 9:e11623. PMID: 34178476
Background: Sugarbeet ( L.) roots are stored under conditions that cause roots to dehydrate, which increases postharvest losses. Although exogenous jasmonate applications can reduce drought stress in intact plants, their...

Costa L, Luz L, Nascimento V, Araujo F, Santos M, Franca C, et al.
Front Plant Sci . 2021 Jan; 11:584698. PMID: 33391299
Selenium (Se) is considered a beneficial element in higher plants when provided at low concentrations. Recently, studies have unveiled the interactions between Se and ethylene metabolism throughout plant growth and...

Fugate K, Eide J, Martins D, Grusak M, Deckard E, Finger F
J Plant Physiol . 2019 Aug; 240:153016. PMID: 31400718
Sucrose metabolism is believed to have a central role in promoting sink strength and sucrose storage in the sugarbeet taproot. How sucrose accumulation is increased by sucrose-degrading enzymes, however, is...

Megguer C, Fugate K, Lafta A, Ferrareze J, Deckard E, Campbell L, et al.
Front Plant Sci . 2017 Jun; 8:861. PMID: 28596778
Although respiration is the principal cause of the loss of sucrose in postharvest sugarbeet ( L.), the internal mechanisms that control root respiration rate are unknown. Available evidence, however, indicates...

de Oliveira L, Fugate K, Ferrareze J, Bolton M, Deckard E, Finger F
Data Brief . 2017 Feb; 11:165-168. PMID: 28229116
Jasmonic acid is a natural plant hormone that induces native defense responses in plants. Sugarbeet ( L.) root unigenes that were differentially expressed 2 and 60 days after a postharvest...

Fugate K, Ribeiro W, Lulai E, Deckard E, Finger F
Front Plant Sci . 2016 May; 7:499. PMID: 27148322
Storage temperature affects the rate and extent of wound-healing in a number of root and tuber crops. The effect of storage temperature on wound-healing in sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris L.) roots,...
