Effect of biofertilizers on yield and morphological parameters of onion cultivars

Abstract: The present study evaluated the effect of different organic fertilizers on the morphological parameters and yield in two different onion cultivars. Proper use of organic fertilizers in appropriate amounts could be helpful to growers from the economic point of view. Field experiments were conducted to study the effect of three different organic biofertilizers on yield and morphological parameters of two onion cultivars ‘Stuttgarter Riesen’ and ‘Rote Laaer’ during 2016 and 2017. The investigated treatments inclu… Show more

“…On observation, the highest plant tuber diameter of 3.78 cm was obtained in the combination of treatment B (compost 10 tons / ha and violetta varieties) but did not differ markedly from other treatment combinations. This is in line with the opinions of Mythili et al, (2018) and Petrovic et al, (2019), stating that the use of compost on various varieties does not increase the number of tubers and diameter of tubers but only encourages vegetative growth. In addition, the number of tubers and the diameter of tubers in plants depends on the growth period of plants, especially plant height and number of leaves (Harvendra et al, 2019).…”

“…The effect of this fertilizer was more spectacular than the remaining treatments B-Stimul (based on bacterial and algal cultures) and VermiFit A (compost from Californian earthworms). Beneficial microorganisms are known to be the most effective as plant stimulants in stress conditions, and EkoBooster 2 is composed of organic matter and NPK (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) in available forms, which led to the optimal nutritional status of onion plants [23,24]. Hanci and Cebeci [25] noted that drought, occurring especially during the vegetative phase of the onion life cycle, significantly decreased chlorophyll a and b content and total chlorophyll content, but not the chlorophyll a/b ratio, indicating that chlorophyll a was more sensitive to drought.…”

“…The result is in agreed with (Kaur and Singh (2019), Jayathilake et al (2003) ; Akoun (2004), Mohammad and Hassanpour ( 2012). Organic fertilizers help in onions bulbs production (Petrovic et al, 2019;Vachan and Tripathi ,2017;Shah et al, 2019;El zemrany and Faiyad 2021). The reason for these results may be due to released nutrients and hormone increase soil fertility by increasing soil biota and enhances the plant growth and bulb yield.…”
