- Observation Garlic bulb size ranged from 35 to 120 g across varieties.
- Observation Garlic fresh yield ranged from 5.5 to 16 t/ha across varieties.
- Observation Allicin concentration ranged from 3.5 to 6.6 mg g−1 fresh weight between garlic varieties.
- Observation More than 50% of garlic varieties were under the minimum pharmaceutical allicin standard (>4.5 mg g−1 FW).
- Observation Some garlic varieties had both high allicin concentration and high yield.
