The geographical position and specificity of agroecological conditions (present and former Yugoslavia) have led to the formation of various populations and ecotypes of onion. These populations differ in shape, colour, average bulb mass and growth, presenting a significant source of genetic variability. The objective of this investigation was to study the variability of characters of onion populations in order to find desirable characters that can be used in breeding. The analysis showed significant differences in bulb mass, that ranged from 74.0 to 209.8 g. The coefficient of variation for this character was 39.1. High variability with respect to dry matter content was found (10.0-16.0). The bulbs differed in colour and shape.
