Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Nine waxes were detected on leaves of all onion inbreds.
- Association Less abundant waxes on doubled haploid onion foliage had higher coefficients of variation.
- Association Older onion leaves had higher wax amounts than younger leaves on the same plant.
- Association Waxes were lower on older semiglossy inbred plants, producing a significant inbred by sampling date interaction.
- Recommendation Repeated leaf sampling of the same plant offers little advantage over evaluating more plants.
- Association Large coefficients of variation for specific waxes may reduce response to selection for onion wax profiles with less thrips damage.
