Abstract

This work aimed to characterize the onion cultivar SCS366 Poranga, of very early cycle, adapted to the growing conditions of Santa Catarina State. The work was developed at Epagri´s Ituporanga Experiment Station beginning in 1997 with the mass selection method from a population of EPAGRI 363 Superprecoce cultivar. In the selection process characteristics of brown peel color, rounded shape, high yield and early harvest bulb were reccommended. In 2012 the cultivar SCS366 Poranga was released, adding the referred agronomic characteristics that present advantages compared to traditional cultivars, anticipating the harvest period of onion in SC.
