[10] Allium moly is primarily found in Spain and Southern France with additional populations in Italy, Austria, Czech Republic, Algeria, and Morocco.
Allium moly plants should have partial shade and some form of protection from the sun in the afternoons during hot summers.
On average of 8-20 days, the plants had a longer blooming period if they were sprayed with a 0.2% solution of Asahi SL than those with water.
Antifungal activity and antibacterial properties are medicinal aspects that Allium moly possess as well.
Bioaccessibility of the bioactive components found in Allium moly increased with heat and the release of phenolic compounds.
Baking, grilling, and frying the vegetables is the best way to reserve the phenolic compounds and the bioavailability.
