Production potential of garlic genotypes in Minas Gerais

The objective of this work was to identify garlic genotypes with better agronomic performance for the regions of Diamantina-MG and Lavras-MG. Ten garlic genotypes were used, eight experimental and two commercial cultivars. The planting of bulbils was in beds of 0.20m, 1.25m and 20m height, width and length respectively, in five planting lines spaced 20cm between rows and 10cm between plants, in randomized blocks, with ten treatments and four replicates. The two commercial cultivars obtained the best commercial yields of bulbs in both growing environments and are therefore recommended for planting.
