Krawiec, M. (University of Agriculture, Lublin (Poland). Dept. of Seed Production and Nurseries)
Two temperature ranges were applied: 0-1 and 18-20 deg C, which, according to the research of many authors prevent vernalization of onion sets. The experiment was carried out in the years 1996-99. For storage, two cultivars of onion were selected, divided into 4 size class. Determined were the extent of the weight losses, the total storage losses, and occurrence of disease symptoms. It was found that storage in a temperature of 18-21 deg C had a significant effect on the increase in total storage losses in comparison with storage in a temperature of 0-1 deg C. The smaller the onion sets stored, the more bulbs completly dried up and the fewer were sprouting into leaves
