Evaluation of mutagenic samples of winter garlic

Relevance. The use of chemical mutagenesis on garlic is relevant for the creation new forms with stable characteristics, better biochemical qualities, increased yield, in breeding practice. Results . reaction treated two mutagens was evaluated: DES (diethyl sulfate) – 0.025; 0.05 and 0.1% (mutants 2, 3 4), as well DMS (dimethyl 0.02; 0.04 0.08% solutions 5, 6 7). aftereffect noted low medium variability signs second–fifth generation. According to 1.6–9.4%, height plants (samples M 6), number leaves (M 5), false stem 3), diameter bulbs length weight samples 3, 5 were distinguished. effect morphometric also tracked second generation (re-growing from air bulbs), where parameters are marked. majority 7 reflected a 5.5–10.0% only 2 mutants showed an average 11.4–16.4%: plant bulb yield. correlation between their value 5th 2nd revealed strong direct connections. High heritability h = 0.74–0.99 preparations 0.05%, VMI 0.02 0.04%, most important indicator selection valuable signs.
