SummarySkin quality of onions from commercial sources and experiments was assessed using a rotating drum to simulate handling damage. Differences in skin quality between cultivars were of greater significance than those induced by manipulating nitrog

Strength, stiffness, strain at fracture and moisture content of onion skins were measured after incubation at a range of humidities. Higher relative humidity (RH) resulted in skins which had greater moisture content, were stronger in multi-directiona

SummaryCarrot roots from a range of environments, developmental stages and cultivars showed variation in splitting susceptibility from 3.8% to 72.5%. Estimates of tissue tensile strength, fracture toughness and residual strain for roots from these so

Literature describing the effects of genotype, development and environment on internal damage in potato tubers is re-examined with particular reference to methods used to determine susceptibility. While there are many reports illustrating genotypic d

Laboratory and glasshouse experiments demonstrated that priming of carrot seeds infected with Alternaria dauci did not affect the rate of transmission of the pathogen. Iprodione applied as a dust to unprimed, infected seeds at 5 ga.i. per kg seed eff

Summary Leek seed lots of high (91%) and low (82%) viability were primed in aerated polyethylene glycol (PEG) solutions in Bubble-columns and by a non-osmotic priming technique in both 1987 and 1988 and the seeds were then sown in the field. Both met

SUMMARY Durometer readings indicated that although differences in firmness of maturegreen fruits were small, there were large varietal differences in red-ripe fruit after preor post-storage ripening treatment at different temperatures. Such differenc

Investigations into the effects of treatment with sodium hypochlorite solution on high-temperature germination of lettuce seed are described. A 2 h treatment in a solution with 10% available chlorine enabled up to c. 70% of seeds to germinate at 35

SUMMARY Carrot seed, osmotically primed in polyethylene glycol solution (273 g/kg water) for 10 days at 15°C, was given 0–5 rinsing cycles, where each cycle comprised agitating the seed in 10 times its own bulk volume of distilled water for 20 to
