At that time the nursery grew a very different range of crops, ranging from soft fruit, apples, plums and pears, to onions, leeks and all the usual vegetables of the time. He also kept cows and horses to use on the smallholding. The nursery was as is now a spread of over 22acres. The next generation, also called William Robinson, started to improve the size of onions and leeks in particular. This was done as it is still done today by selection. Only the best specimens were allowed to seed. He started to exhibit the results in the local Flower Shows of the time, winning many prizes. Soon other exhibitors wanted to grow the strain and the vegetable business as we know it was born. He called all his large varieties of vegetable by the prefix Mammoth, as we still do today.

NAWROCKA-PEZIK, 2015. Comparison of chemical composition of selected cultivars of white, yellow and red onions. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 21: 736–741 The analysed six onion cultivars (Allium cepa L.) cultivated in Poland were characterised by different colour of onion scale leaf: Albion and Alibaba (white cultivar), Grabowska and Majka (yellow cultivar), Scarlet and Wenta (red cultivar). The on- ion cultivars were obtained from the Experimental Station of Cultivars Testing in Węgrzce near Kraków. The following was determined for each cultivar: the content of macro- and micronutrients, reducing and total sugar, the vitamin C content. Sig- nificant differences in chemical composition between the analysed cultivars were found. The cultivars of the same colour ex- hibited similar tendencies in terms of accumulating the most of the analysed elements. The greatest differences in the chemical content were found among yellow and red cultivars. Yellow cultivars accumulated significantly greater amounts of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, iron, manganese, zinc, copper and reducing sugar than red onion cultivars. Red onion cultivars contained significantly greater amounts of total sugar and vitamin C than yellow onion cultivars. Key words: onion, macroelements, microelements, reducing sugars, total sugars, vitamin C Abbreviations: DM – dry matter; FW – fresh weight Introduction Micronutrients are necessary for normal growth and de- velopment of plants as well as people – they are the ingre- The onion (Allium cepa L.) is one of the oldest cultivated dients or activators of various enzymes and play a catalytic vegetable crops.

  • Allium Crops Onions, Shallots, Garlic Onions, Shallots, Garlic and Leeks Are All in the Same Genus of Allium and Have Much in Common
    Allium Crops Onions, Shallots, Garlic Onions, shallots, garlic and leeks are all in the same genus of Allium and have much in common. Onions are the most popular of these crops in the United States, but in Louisiana, garlic and shallots are just as popular as onions. Alliums are quite hardy and grow from fall to late spring. Although the alliums are used mostly as seasonings, they are a good source of vitamin B. Onions - Allium cepa Onions may be grown for either bulbs or green tops (scallions). Planting from seed can start in late September in north Louisiana and extends through mid-October in south Louisiana. Plant onion sets or transplants mid- December through late-January. Select “short day” varieties of bulbing onions. This is very important, since bulb formation is controlled by day length and temperatures. Bulb initiation begins in the Miss Megan (yellow onion) spring as days begin to get longer and the temperature rises. Bulb size depends on variety and growing conditions. If a large bulb is desired, choose a variety capable of particularly those grown for bulbs, produce best in light producing a large bulb, and that develops a large, vigorous silty or sandy soils. Clay soils may interfere with the plant before bulbing begins. Bulb shape depends on variety, swelling of the bulb. Adding organic matter or compost to depth of planting and soil type. Heavier soils and shallow heavy soils can make good production possible. setting produce a more flattened bulb. Crowding plants Several good “short day” varieties are available for will also produce smaller and slimmer bulbs.

  • The Antibacterial Effects of Onions and Shallots on E. Coli DH5 Alpha
    CALIFORNIA STATE SCIENCE FAIR 2016 PROJECT SUMMARY Name(s) Project Number Joshua J. Hwang J1609 Project Title The Antibacterial Effects of Onions and Shallots on E. coli DH5 Alpha Abstract Objectives/Goals The objective of this experiment is to study the antibacterial effects of onions and shallots on E.coli DH 5 alpha and to determine which herb has the greatest level of inhibition on the bacteria specimen alone or when mixed with shallots. Methods/Materials A freshly grown overnight culture of E.coli DH5 alpha was mixed with red onion, yellow onion, white onion or shallot alone at 10%, 50% and 100% concentration. E.coli DH5 alpha was also mixed with 1:1 mixture of the different types of onion and shallot at 50% concentration. The level of inhibition of the onions or shallot alone and as a mixture on E.coli was compared using a colony counting essay. Results The experiments showed that the shallot had the strongest level of inhibition, followed by white onion, yellow onion and red onion. White onion and shallots had strong levels of inhibition at 50% and 100% of concentration. At 10% concentration, the growth was similar to the E.coli control for all treated samples. At 50% concentration, it did show an increased level of inhibition but the exact level of inhibition varies between trials. At 100% concentration of onions alone, 50% or 100% shallot alone and at 1;1 mixture of onion and shallot at 50% concentration, the antibacterial inhibition was 100%. Conclusions/Discussion The experiment concludes that onions and shallot have antibacterial effects with shallot being the most effective agent, followed by white onion, yellow onion and red onion.
