Table II. ^{minus1 minus1}Sprout length of Sherpa onions measured 35 weeks after harvest treated before or after curing with 10 μL L⁻¹ ethylene and/or 1 μL L⁻¹ 1-MCP for 24 h at 20°C and then transferred to air or continuous ethylene storage at 0°C to 1°C (n = 6).

Treatments are defined in “Materials and Methods.” lsd (P = 0.05) = 14.78.
