Diversity of morphology, physiology and anatomy of different shallots tidal swamp varieties on under-saturated soil culture
Main Article Content
Abstract
Water depth was not significantly different in the growth of shoots, growth percentage and plant height, and number of leaves. The growth of shoots was effect by the varieties. The fastest growing of shoots was on the varieties Bima brebes, Bauji, Manjung, and Tajuk compared to Sakato, while the slowest was on the Batu Ijo variety. Varieties of Bima Brebes, Bauji, Manjung, and Tajuk were a higher percentage of growth than those of SS Sakato and Batu Ijo varieties. Varieties Bima Brebes and Batu Ijo had the highest plant height compared to the Tajuk, SS Sakato, Bauji, and Manjung. The Bima Brebes variety produced more leaf growth than the Manjung, Bauji, Tajuk, Batu Ijo, and SS Sakato varieties. The CHL index, SPAD, and total chlorophyll did not affect the varieties. The depth of water did not affect SPAD and total chlorophyll but affected the CHL index. The water depth of 30 cm was a higher CHL index than the water depth of 10 cm, but the water depth of 20 cm was similar to the 10 and 30 cm water depths. The water depth was not affected by total stomata however, the varieties were affected by total stomata. The highest total of stomata was on the varieties of Bima Brebes compared to Bauji and Manjung but the varieties Tajuk, SS Sakato, and Batu Ijo were similar to Bima Brebes, Bauji, and Manjung. Bima Brebes shallot variety was the suitable variety that can be planted at a depth of 30 cm of water in tidal land with water-saturated cultivation technology based on the result of studies of morphological, physiological, and anatomical conditions.
