Description

<p>Allium victorialis L. subsp. platyphyllum Hulten is a perennial plant that can be found between Hokkaido and Nara Prefecture in Honshu, Japan. Although strains of A. victorialis near Hokkaido have been characterized, the morphological features of strains that span the rest of its range in Japan are unknown. Bulbs of 22 strains of A. victorialis were obtained from the Saku Branch of the Nagano Vegetable and Ornamental Crops Experiment Station (Komoro City, Nagano Prefecture). These bulbs had been continuously cultivated at the station and originated from throughout the plant’s range within Japan with emphasis on strains from the eastern region of Honshu. The collected strains were then cultivated in an open field in Komoro City of Nagano Prefecture. Fourteen morphological traits were evaluated once each year for three years (2015–2017) starting at bulb planting in order to account for seasonal variation and identify differences among the strains. Differences in the survey year and strain affected the morphological traits of A. victorialis. The survey year was more influential on several traits that were evaluated than strain based on two-way analysis of variance; some traits were shared among all strains. By comparing the average values of all the strains among the survey years, the leaf part was determined to increase over the three years. Based on principal component analysis, several strains collected from Nagano Prefecture did not group together, which indicates that the morphological traits of strains from Nagano Prefecture were highly diverse.</p>
