Creator:

Boonyakiat, Danai

Abstract:

Free abscisic acid (ABA) in Yellow Globe Danvers onion tissues was determined during maturation and storage. The amount of ABA in leaf tissue reached a maximum (1.81 ng/gm dry weight) at 40% top fall. Neck tissue ABA reached a maximum (0.33 ng/gm dry weight) at 60-70% top fall. ABA of...

Pre-harvest foliar desiccation of Yellow Globe Danvers onions was investigated as a means to improve harvest procedure and to reduce storage losses. Foliar desiccation tended to increase storage disease and sprouting incidence versus the untreated controls. Paraquat approximately doubled storage disease in both years. Stoddard solvent and ethephon increased disease...
