Bulbing response of shallot (Allium cepa L. var. ascalonicum Backer) and allium x wakegi araki to daylength and temperature

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Bulbing response of two accessions of shallot and two accessions of A. x wakegi collected in Indonesia and two A. x wakegi accessions in Japan to daylength and temperature was investigated. All accessions formed bulbs under a 16-hr photoperiod. Both species also formed bulbs under a 12-hr daylength; A. x wakegi formed bulbs even in an 8-hr daylength. Temperature of 20 °C more promoted bulbing in both species than at 25 and 30 °C.
