Intermediate-day onions plantedin the fall have been introduced to temperate environments inthe southern parts of Korea since the 1950s. The Korean onionhas been producing more than 50 t ha−1of bulb yield since 1989,and obtained the highest productivity all over the world (Foodand Agriculture Organization (FAO), 2012). Onion productivity hasbeen sustained by intensified cultural practices, including the useof transplants, high-density planting, polyethylene film mulches,and increased use of fertilizer, compost and synthetic chemicals
