    • Effect of Nectar Composition on Bee Attraction for Onion Seed Production 

      Soto Vargas, Verónica Carolina; Silva, Maria Fernanda; Galmarini, Claudio Romulo (Nova Science Publishers, 2015-02)
      Onion is the second most cultivated vegetable crop in the world. Two types of onion varieties are usually grown around the world; open pollinated (OP) and first generation (F1) hybrids. Honey bees are the main pollinators ...

    • Nectar and flower traits of different onion male sterile lines related to pollination efficiency and seed yield of F1 hybrids 

      Soto Vargas, Verónica Carolina; Maldonado, Irma Beatriz; Gil, Raul Andres; Peralta, Iris Edith; Silva, Maria Fernanda; Galmarini, Claudio Romulo (Entomological Society of America, 2013-06)
      Honey bees are the main pollinators of onion crops for seed production, but owing to low attractiveness of flowers, pollination is often inadequate. Pollination problems result in low seed yields. This problem is accentuated ...

    • Onion Hybrid Seed Production: Relation with Nectar Composition and Flower Traits 

      Soto Vargas, Verónica Carolina; Caselles, Cristian A.; Silva, Maria Fernanda; Galmarini, Claudio Romulo (2018-05)
      Onion (Allium cepa L.) is one of the main vegetable crops. Pollinators are required for onion seed production, being honeybees the most used. Around the world, two types of onion varieties are grown: open pollinated (OP) ...
