e0“Garlic plants have a high demand for sulfur (S) since allicin contains S atoms”
e6“Highest bulb weight (~53 g bulb−1) and allicin concentration (~11 mg g−1 DW) were recorded at an S application of 1504 mg S plant−1”

Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Cultivar Glenlarge had the greatest bulb weight (~90 g) at 75 kg S ha−1 in the field trial.
- Intervention effect Cultivar Glenlarge had the greatest allicin content (521 mg bulb−1) at 75 kg S ha−1 in the field trial.
- Intervention effect Cultivar Southern Glen showed no response in bulb weight or allicin to sulfur application.
- Mechanism High soil background S concentrations likely masked the sulfur treatment effects on garlic.
- Intervention effect In solution culture, bulb weight and allicin concentration increased with sulfur rate.
- Intervention effect Highest bulb weight (~53 g) in solution culture was at 1504 mg S plant−1 sulfur application.
