Abstract
This study explored the interactive effects of two doses of nitrogen and two levels of soil sulphur on onion yields, nitrate content and concentration of the amino acids cysteine and methionine under accurately controlled conditions. Onions were cultivated in Mitscherlich pots with 6 kg of soil with a low content of S-SO42-(5 ppm, S-0) or a high content (30 ppm, S-1) with added doses of 0.6 (N-1) and 1.2 (N-2) g N pot(-1) as (NH4)(2)SO4 and NH4NO3. There were no significant differences (P
