Other claims from this paper (14)
- Intervention effect Increasing S alone did not affect growth or bulb weight of garlic.
- Intervention effect Increasing S alone slightly increased the alliin content of garlic bulbs.
- Observation No symptoms of S deficiency were observed in garlic under greenhouse conditions.
- Intervention effect Garlic grown in vitro without added S (0 mg S l–1) had greatly reduced size.
- Mechanism Atmospheric S contamination may play an important role in S absorption by garlic plants.
- Intervention effect Increasing N levels significantly accelerated garlic maturity.
- Intervention effect Increasing N levels decreased garlic bulb yield.
- Association The effect of N on organosulphur compound content of garlic bulbs depends on cultivar.
- Intervention effect Increasing N did not enhance alliin accumulation in garlic bulbs.
- Intervention effect Increasing N negatively influenced alliin levels in Printanor and Morasol garlic.
- Association A slight synergistic effect of S and N was observed in Messidrôme garlic.
- Observation Messidrôme had the highest flavour potential including precursors among the garlic cultivars.
- Observation Messidrôme was more efficient than the other cultivars in accumulating S into organosulphur compounds.
- Recommendation The authors advise choosing the most appropriate garlic variety and adapting the N and S fertilisation regime to the environment to produce garlic with the highest health value.
