  aBibliography : leaves 123-126  aMorphological and yield characterization of 918 M3 garlic putative mutants 
through the Allium spp. descriptor lists developed by the International Plant Genetic 
Resources Institute (IPGRI) were studied at the experimental area of Mariano Marcos 
State University’s Crop Research Laboratory, Tabug, City of Batac, Ilocos Norte. The 
study aimed to (1) morphologically characterize the garlic putative mutants using 
Allium spp. descriptor lists developed by the International Plant Genetic Resources 
Institute (IPGRI); (2) describe the growth and yield characteristics of the garlic putative 
mutants; and (3) identify the relationship between bulb weight and growth and yield 
characteristics. The experimental design that was used in the study was Descriptive 
Research Design and Correlation Analysis. The results of the study showed variations 
in growth characteristics, yield characteristics, and bulb characteristics among M3 
garlic putative mutants. GC-7-19-3 had the widest laminar width, while GC25-8-1 had 
the longest length. GC-4-4-8 had the widest equatorial diameter, the most number of 
outer cloves, and bulb weight. Bulb weight was significantly correlated with plant 
height and polar diameter, while equatorial diameter and number of outer cloves were 
positively correlated with bulb weight. The study found significant variability in 
growth potential among putative mutants, with GC4-4-8 showing the highest yield 
potential. Plant height, polar diameter, equatorial diameter, and number of outer cloves 
positively correlated with bulb weight aiding breeders in improving yield.  2lcccTHEDIS  c24322d24322  00102lcc4070aMMSU_MAINbMMSU_MAINcTHESESd2024-12-10i7500l0pUTHESIS-7500r2024-12-10w2024-12-10yTHEDISzRoom Use Only
