Influence du froid et des traitements inhibiteurs sur la germination de l'oignon (Allium cepa L.).

Author(s) : BENKEBLIA N., SELSELET-ATTOU G., VAROQUAUX P.

Summary

The effect of chilling (4 and 10 °C) with irradiation, Maleic Hydrazide and Carbamate Isopropyl. N-Phenyl on sprouting and rotting of onions during storage was studied. As previously demonstrated, cold temperature (4 °C) was more effective to control sprouting and rotting (10 °C seems more favourable to sprouting which exceeds 10% after the same period of storage). Chemical treatments were effective at 20 °C. Irradiation remains the well demonstrated method to control sprouting.
