The cetane rating of diesel fuel refers to it's ability to "light on contact". So therefore, the answer I believe is "ignition quality".

Austin said:   3 years ago
We are not igniting Diesel. So, the delay period is more correct right?

Anyone, please clarify.

Sivam said:   1 decade ago
Its correct is ignition quality and cetane no is increased then the quality is improved.

Varun said:   7 years ago
Fuel with lower cetane no have more ignition delay. So, the delay period is right.

Aditya said:   10 years ago
No, delay period is D right answer, ignition quality is measure by octane number.

Kumaran said:   1 decade ago
No it is not right. It is the measurement of quality of ignition.

Cetan no of diesel engine explained us delay period.
