Other claims from this paper (8)
- Association Bulb fresh weight did not differ by cultivar within either year.
- Association Bulb fresh weight was 36% higher in the year with rain during maximum bulb expansion.
- Association Total bulb sugar concentration varied by cultivar and year.
- Association Bulb pungency varied by cultivar and year.
- Association Pungency was higher in Sweet Georgia than in four comparison cultivars.
- Association The sugar:pungency ratio was lower in Texas 1015Y than in four comparison cultivars.
- Association The sugar:pungency ratio was lower in Sweet Georgia than in four comparison cultivars.
- Recommendation Under low sulfur nutrition, the sugar:pungency ratio may assess market acceptance more precisely than either measure alone.
