Abstract

Climate change has occurred frequently, and it lead to a severe decrease in marketability and productivity. Onion has various functional elements related to antioxidant, antibacterial, anticancer and immune enhancement, the productivity is closely affected by climate conditions. In this study, to environmentally-friendly produce onions even though drought condition, effect of Bacillus aryabhattai H19-1 on the yield, marketability, and functional component of onions was evaluated in a field. When strain H19-1 was drenched, onion production and marketability significantly increased, and the contents of ascorbic acid and carotenoid of harvested onion bulbs also increased. Therefore, B. aryabhattai H19-1 is expected to be effective in enhancing onion productivity by mitigating drought stress.

양파 생육후기 중 가뭄에 의한 피해가 발생할 때 Bacillus aryabhattai H19-1를 관주처리할 경우, 양파의 수량이 대조구 대비 유의하게 증가하였고, 수확한 양파의 규격이 증가하여 상품성이 증가하였다. 또한, 수확한 양파에 함유되어 있는 아스코르브산과 카로티노이드 함량이 H19-1 처리 시 증가하여, 이에 따라 가뭄 스트레스에 의한 피해가 경감했을 가능성이 있음을 제시하였다. 따라서, 이후 연구에서는 H19-1의 건조피해 저감과 관련한 작용 기작에 대한 연구를 수행할 예정이다.
