Abstract
An experiment was carried out to investigate the optimum doses of gamma-irradiation for sprouting inhibition of onion bulbs with irradiation time and storage conditions. The results. obtained are as follows: 1) The irradiation doses of 5, 7 and 10 krad, respectively, at 11, 32 and 66 days after harvest were sufficient to inhibit subsequent sprout of onion bulbs obtained from Nampyeong district. When they were irradiated at 96 day after harvest, however, there was little sprout-inhibition by 15 krad. In case of onion bulbs obtained from Changnyeong district, sprout was inhibited by doses of 8 and 12 krad respectively, at 51 and 89 days after harvest. 2) Low-temperature storage after irradiation was not effective in sprout-inhibition of onion bulbs. Onion bulbs stored at low temperature of rather showed higher sprouting rate as compared with that of room temperature. 3) Rot increased in irradiated lot and at room temperature, and spores of Aspergillus sp. were little germinated at a level of 100 krad. 4) The respiratory rate of irradiated onion bulbs was higher immediately after irradiation but lower one week after irradiation than control. Respiratory quotient of tissues seems to be little affected by gamma-irradiation.
