​Performance of Garlic Genotypes under Sub montane Zone of Maharashtra

Background: Knowledge about the morphological characteristics of garlic genotypes is most important for selection appropriate varieties place and achievement high yields. Besides, characterization an aspect documentation performance studied cultivars, which subsequently helps introduction, improvement in existing garlic. Methods: The experimental material was comprised 16 viz., Phule Baswant, Nilima, Kalwan Local, DN-49-395, DN-49-364, Marwar G-284, G-222, G-444, G-41, G-119, G-215, G-752, G-546, Satara Local Dahiwadi Local. collected dibbled on flat beds 1.5 m × 1.0 dimensions at a spacing 15 10 cm randomized block design with three replications total plot size 72.00 m2. soil selected present investigation medium texture rich organic matter. FYM applied @ 25 t/ha time land preparation recommended dose fertilizers i.e. 100:50:50 kg N:P2O5:K2O/ha applied. observations growth parameters harvest, yield attributes, incidence pests diseases, physiological loss weight (%) decay percentage end 90 days storage ambient temperature were recorded. Result: data revealed that, Baswant G-41 had recorded better respect to attributes minimum disease pest least temperature.
