Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Earlier seeding produced larger plants and more leaves early in the season.
- Intervention effect By harvest, later-seeded plants had more leaves.
- Observation NuMex Mesa was shorter than bolting-susceptible cultivars.
- Observation Bolting-resistant and susceptible cultivars produced similar leaf numbers.
- Mechanism NuMex Mesa bolting resistance may stem from smaller size or a higher size threshold for cold response.
- Intervention effect Delaying seeding reduced bolting.
- Intervention effect Delaying seeding postponed maturity.
- Intervention effect Delaying seeding increased bulb yield.
