The <a href="/wiki/Shallot" title="Shallot">shallot</a> is a <a href="/wiki/Variety_(botany)" title="Variety (botany)">botanical variety</a> of the onion which was classified as a separate species until 2011. The onion's close relatives include <a href="/wiki/Garlic" title="Garlic">garlic</a>, <a href="/wiki/Scallion" title="Scallion">scallion</a>, <a href="/wiki/Leek" title="Leek">leek</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Chives" title="Chives">chives</a>. </p><p>The genus contains several other species variously called onions and cultivated for food, such as the Japanese bunching onion <i><a href="/wiki/Allium_fistulosum" title="Allium fistulosum">Allium fistulosum</a></i>, the <a href="/wiki/Tree_onion" title="Tree onion">tree onion</a> <i>Allium</i>&#160;× <i>proliferum</i>, and the Canada onion <i><a href="/wiki/Allium_canadense" title="Allium canadense">Allium canadense</a></i>. The name <i><a href="/wiki/Wild_onion_(disambiguation)" class="mw-redirect" title="Wild onion (disambiguation)">wild onion</a></i> is applied to a number of <i>Allium</i> species, but <i>A. cepa</i> is exclusively known from cultivation. Its ancestral wild original form is not known, although escapes from cultivation have become established in some regions. The onion is most frequently a <a href="/wiki/Biennial_plant" title="Biennial plant">biennial</a> or a <a href="/wiki/Perennial_plant" class="mw-redirect" title="Perennial plant">perennial plant</a>, but is usually treated as an <a href="/wiki/Annual_plant" title="Annual plant">annual</a> and harvested in its first growing season. </p><p>The onion plant has a fan of hollow, bluish-green leaves, and its bulb at the base of the plant begins to swell when a certain day-length is reached. The bulbs are composed of shortened, compressed, underground stems surrounded by fleshy modified scale (leaves) that envelop a central bud at the tip of the stem. In the autumn (or in spring, in the case of overwintering onions), the foliage dies down and the outer layers of the bulb become more dry, and brittle. The crop is harvested and dried and the onions are ready for use or storage. The crop is prone to attack by a number of pests and diseases, particularly the <a href="/wiki/Delia_antiqua" title="Delia antiqua">onion fly</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Ditylenchus_dipsaci" title="Ditylenchus dipsaci">onion eelworm</a>, and various fungi which can cause rotting. Some varieties of <i>A. cepa</i>, such as <a href="/wiki/Shallot" title="Shallot">shallots</a> and <a href="/wiki/Potato_onion" title="Potato onion">potato onions</a>, produce multiple bulbs. </p><p>Onions are cultivated and used around the world. As a food item, they are often served raw as a <a href="/wiki/Vegetable" title="Vegetable">vegetable</a> or part of a prepared savoury dish, but can be eaten cooked or used to make <a href="/wiki/Pickled_onion" title="Pickled onion">pickles</a> or <a href="/wiki/Chutney" title="Chutney">chutneys</a>.

They are fleshy, hollow, and cylindrical, with one flattened side. They are at their broadest about a quarter of the way up, beyond which they taper to blunt tips. The base of each leaf is a flattened, usually white sheath that grows out of the basal plate of a bulb. From the underside of the plate, a bundle of <a href="/wiki/Fibrous_root_system" title="Fibrous root system">fibrous roots</a> extends for a short way into the soil.

Diseases affecting the foliage include rust and smut, downy mildew, and white tip disease. The bulbs may be affected by splitting, white rot, and neck rot. Shanking is a condition in which the central leaves turn yellow and the inner part of the bulb collapses into an unpleasant-smelling slime. Most of these disorders are best treated by removing and burning affected plants.<sup id="cite_ref-Hessayon_71-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Hessayon-71"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>71<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The larvae of the onion leaf miner or leek moth (<i><a href="/wiki/Acrolepiopsis_assectella" class="mw-redirect" title="Acrolepiopsis assectella">Acrolepiopsis assectella</a></i>) sometimes attack the foliage and may burrow down into the bulb.<sup id="cite_ref-72" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-72"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>72<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>The onion fly (<i>Delia antiqua</i>) lays eggs on the leaves and stems and on the ground close to onion, shallot, leek, and garlic plants. The fly is attracted to the crop by the smell of damaged tissue and is liable to occur after thinning. Plants grown from sets are less prone to attack. The larvae tunnel into the bulbs and the foliage wilts and turns yellow. The bulbs are disfigured and rot, especially in wet weather. Control measures may include crop rotation, the use of seed dressings, early sowing or planting, and the removal of infested plants.<sup id="cite_ref-73" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-73"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>73<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>The onion eelworm (<i><a href="/wiki/Ditylenchus_dipsaci" title="Ditylenchus dipsaci">Ditylenchus dipsaci</a></i>), a tiny parasitic soil-living <a href="/wiki/Nematode" title="Nematode">nematode</a>, causes swollen, distorted foliage. Young plants are killed and older ones produce soft bulbs. No cure is known and affected plants should be uprooted and burned. The site should not be used for growing onions again for several years and should also be avoided for growing <a href="/wiki/Carrot" title="Carrot">carrots</a>, <a href="/wiki/Parsnip" title="Parsnip">parsnips</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Bean" title="Bean">beans</a>, which are also susceptible to the eelworm.<sup id="cite_ref-74" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-74"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>74<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>White rot of onions, leeks, and garlic is caused by the soil-borne fungus <i><a href="/wiki/Stromatinia_cepivora" title="Stromatinia cepivora">Sclerotium cepivorum</a></i>. As the roots rot, the foliage turns yellow and wilts. The bases of the bulbs are attacked and become covered by a fluffy white mass of <a href="/wiki/Mycelium" title="Mycelium">mycelia</a>, which later produces small, globular black structures called <a href="/wiki/Sclerotium" title="Sclerotium">sclerotia</a>. These resting structures remain in the soil to reinfect a future crop. No cure for this fungal disease exists, so affected plants should be removed and destroyed and the ground used for unrelated crops in subsequent years.<sup id="cite_ref-75" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-75"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>75<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Neck rot is a fungal disease affecting onions in storage. It is caused by <i><a href="/wiki/Botrytis_allii" title="Botrytis allii">Botrytis allii</a></i>, which attacks the neck and upper parts of the bulb, causing a grey mould to develop. The symptoms often first occur where the bulb has been damaged and spread down the affected scales. Large quantities of <a href="/wiki/Spore" title="Spore">spores</a> are produced and crust-like sclerotia may also develop. In time, a dry rot sets in and the bulb becomes a dry, mummified structure. This disease may be present throughout the growing period, but only manifests itself when the bulb is in storage. Antifungal seed dressings are available and the disease can be minimised by preventing physical damage to the bulbs at harvesting, careful drying and curing of the mature onions, and correct storage in a cool, dry place with plenty of circulating air.<sup id="cite_ref-76" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-76"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>76<span

The bulbs are smaller than those of common onions, and a single plant forms an aggregate cluster of several bulbs from a master. They are propagated almost exclusively from daughter bulbs, although reproduction from seed is possible. Shallots are the most important subgroup within this group and comprise the only cultivars cultivated commercially. They form aggregate clusters of small, narrowly ovoid to pear-shaped bulbs. Potato onions differ from shallots in forming larger bulbs with fewer bulbs per cluster, and having a flattened (onion-like) shape.

Bulbs are separated, and planted in the fall 25&#160;mm (1&#160;in) below the surface and 300&#160;mm (12&#160;in) apart. Bulbs will multiply into clumps and can be harvested throughout the cooler months. Tops die back in the heat of summer and may return with heavy rains; bulbs can remain in the ground or be harvested and stored in a cool dry place for planting in the fall.
