G&H WP3: Cultivation COOPD’OR, IRBI S.T.L., UNISEM, Univ. Cordoba Final meeting Leiden 01/04
Garlic cultivation : Plans and objectives • What did we expect from this workpackage ? • a standard composition in Alliin per clove • distinction between varieties • distinction between practices • S-fertilisation • Environmental effects (light, temperature) • N and S • Se and S • powder material for Health experimentation • indications for tuning garlic quality in the field Final meeting Leiden 01/04
Garlic cultivation : Plans and objectives • What really happened during the project ? • the analytical method has been modified • not only Alliin had to be analysed • the field trials were hardly comparable between locations and dates • powder was not all that easy to handle • plants in vitro should have been multiplied and induced to bulb before analysis • experiments in greenhouse were fine but Se could not be tested Final meeting Leiden 01/04
Garlic cultivation : Plans and schedule • Year 1 • Initiation of in vitro work • Analytical method for Alliin in whole bulbs or in powder • Field trial in two locations (France and Spain) • CSO analysis of the field trial products before and after processing into powder • Transfer to the Health partners • Year 2 • In vitro : temperature effect on CSO • In vitro : S nutrition effect on CSO (normal and S-enriched) • Preparation of greenhouse experiments • Field trial in two locations (France and Spain) • CSO analysis of the field trial products before and after processing into powder • Transfer to the Health partners Final meeting Leiden 01/04
Garlic cultivation : Plans and schedule • Year 3 • In vitro : light and S N nutrition effects on CSO • Greenhouse experiments with 4 genotypesand high S nutrition for producing S-enriched garlic bulbs ; CSO analysis • CSO comparison between virus-free and virus-contaminated plants • Year 4 • In vitro : S and N nutrition effects on CSO(not Se) • In vitro : plants from embryogenesis also tested for light and S nutrition effects on CSO • Greenhouse cultivation of garlic bulbs from year 3 • Greenhouse experiments with one genotypeand various S and N nutrition regimes • Chemical analysis before and after processing into powder • Transfer to the Health partners Final meeting Leiden 01/04
