Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Total and marketable yields and individual bulb weight increased quadratically with organic fertilization rate in sweet onion.
- Intervention effect The fraction of extra-large bulbs increased with organic fertilization rate.
- Intervention effect Onion bolting incidence was maximal at 60 kg·ha −1 N.
- Intervention effect Bulb dry weight percentage was highest in the unfertilized control.
- Intervention effect Bulb dry weight percentage decreased with increasing organic fertilization rate.
- Intervention effect Organic fertilization rate had no consistent impact on bulb soluble solids content and pungency in sweet onion.
- Intervention effect Total antioxidant capacity was among the lowest at 60 and 120 kg·ha −1 N.
- Association Incidence of bulb diseases responded differently to N rate in sweet onion.
- Observation Botrytis rot was the main cause of postharvest bulb decay across all organic fertilization rates.
