Red onion accelerated the germination of rice seeds and inhibited microbial infestation during germination. After germination with red onion for 16 h at 35 °C, super-hard rice EM10 showed a higher germination ratio (2.3 times), and it contained more GABA (2.3 times) and glucose (2.9 times) than that soaked without onion. Due to soaking with red onion, germinated EM10 was fortified with quercetin (18 mg/100 g).
红洋葱能加速水稻种子的萌发，并抑制萌发过程中的微生物侵染。在35℃下用红洋葱处理16小时后，超级硬稻EM10的发芽率更高（是未用洋葱浸泡的2.3倍），且其γ-氨基丁酸（GABA）含量（是未用洋葱浸泡的2.3倍）和葡萄糖含量（是未用洋葱浸泡的2.9倍）也更多。由于用红洋葱浸泡，发芽的EM10富含槲皮素（18毫克/100克）。
