This project aims to construct a large collection of garlic landraces and wild relatives from Central Asia to expand the available genetic diversity. The collection will be evaluated for fertility potential and other economic traits. Genetic fingerprinting will be conducted to determine the genetic variation within the collection.

Rationale Biochemical and molecular studies suggest that the highest level of heterogeneity prevails within the Central Asian cultivar group (Hong, 1999; Maaβ & Klaas, 1993; Pooler & Simon, 1995), which could serve as the most important source for garlic genetic variation and improvement (Etoh & Simon, 2002; Kamenetsky et al., 2003a; 2003b).

Recent studies indicate that garlic species complex consists of five groups(Fritsch and Friesen, 2002): • Sativum • Longicuspis • Ophioscorodon • Subtropical • Pekinense
Longicuspis group Ophioscordon group subgroup Pekinense Sativum group subtropical subgroup Intraspecific classification of garlic, three major groups and two subgroups were proposed (Fritsch and Friesen, 2002)
Missions to Central Asia in 2000 and 2001, collected 241 accessions, including wild populations and land-races. Garlic clones vary in most vegetative characteristics (leaf number, bulb size and structure), as well as in floral scape elongation and inflorescence development.
Garlic clones are classified according to their ability to bolt: 1. Complete bolting: long stalk with many flowers and topsets 2. Incomplete bolting: thin short stalk with a few large topsets 3. Nonbolting: producing only cloves inside incomplete scape (Takagi, 1990)
Incomplete-bolting accession Bolting accession
Missions to Central Asia in 200 and 2001, resulted in a collection of 241 accessions, including wild populations and land-races. Garlic clones vary in most vegetative characteristics (leaf number, bulb size and structure), as well as in floral scape elongation and inflorescence development. Genetic fingerprinting by means of AFLP markers revealed three distinct groups within this collection, differing in flowering ability and organo-S content (Chris Kik and co-workers)

Based on AFLP fingerprinting and one enzyme primer combination, the collection was subdivided into three distinct groups: Sativum, Longicuspis A and B. The groups differed considerably in AFLP variation: Thevariationwithin the Sativum group was significantly low compared to that in theLongicuspis groups.
9% Longicuspis group A 15% Longicuspis group B 76% Sativum group AFLP fingerprinting assisted classification and separation of garlic accessions collected in Central Asia in 2000 (n=120). Chris Kik, A.Wvan Heusden, R Vrielink-van Ginkel andK. Burger-Meijer

Phenotypic variability • Garlic clones vary in most vegetative characteristics (leaf number, bulb size and structure), as well as in floral scape elongation and inflorescence development. Clear distinction was made betweensemi-bolting and bolting accessions. Most of the latter accessions produced flowers with fertile pollen and receptive stigma.

Genetic fingerprinting by means of AFLP markers revealed three distinct groups within this collection, differing in flowering ability and organo-S content. Aclear distinction was made between incomplete bolting and bolting populations; Wide variations were recorded with regard to differentiation of topsets, their size, number and rapidity of development.

Significant variation in organo-S compounds (alliin, isoalliin, allicin and related dipeptides) was found within garlic collections and between plantsgrown under differing environmental conditions.
