M.M. HOSSAIN, K.M. KHALEQUZZAMAN, M.A. WADUD, M.B. SARKER AND R.N. AHMEDThe field experiment was conducted at SRC, Bogra during Rabi season of 2013-14 to test the performance of garlic genotypes against thrips. Fifteen different garlic genotypes (GC001, GC005, GC0012, GC0013, GC0017, GC0018, GC0024, GC0027, GC0028, GC0029, GC0030, GC0031, GC0034, GC0035 and GC0036) along with BARI Garlic 1 and 2 were evaluated against thrips. Out of fifteen genotypes, GCO34 recording less than 8.29 thrips per plant and higher bulb yield (9.78 t/ha) was characterized as highly resistant. Genotypes GC0013, GC0028 and GC0030 recorded higher thrips population of more than 13.41 thrips per plant and lower bulb yield (4.07, 4.52 and 2.68 t/ha, respectively) were grouped into highly susceptible.
