Abstract
The purpose of the study was to present the dependence between the number of air bulbils in the maternal umbel and the on morphological features and the yield plants grown of winter garlic. The maternal material were air bulbils of different various numbers in the maternal umbel (classified in six different categories: 1–5, 6–10, 11–15, 16–20, 21–25 and 26–30 numbers of air bulbils in a maternal umbel). The experiment was set in autumn 1998 and 1999, while agricultural studies were carried in 1999 and 2000 in Experimental Station Agricultural University in Lublin. In conclusion, the results of the study show that the number of air bulbils in the maternal umbel had a substantial impact on the studied biometrical characteristic of the grown up plants i.e.: height of plants, number of leaves, weight of plants, weight of head, yield of cloves as well as the mass of flower umbel and the yield of air bulbils.
