Abstract
This study was conducted to determine volatile sulfur compounds and mineral content of mutant
garlic genotypes. The volatile sulfur compounds analysis was performed with a gas chromatography-
mass spectrometer. The mineral content of mutant garlic genotypes was determined
with an atomic absorption spectrometer and flame photometer. The results indicated that mutant
garlic genotypes showed large variation in terms of their content of volatile sulfur compounds
and minerals. A total of 16 volatile sulfur compounds were detected, which were mainly
diallyl disulfide (68.09%), disulfide methyl propyl (52.34%), disulfide methyl 2-propenyl (29.81%),
sulfide allyl methyl (25.72%), diallyl sulfide (22.38%) and disulfide dimethyl (9.88%). The macroand
micro-elements detected in mutant garlic genotypes were K (232.45-513.25 mg L-1),
Ca (2.19-7.35 mg L-1), Mg (7.38-21.64 mg L-1), Na (4.52-13.18 mg L-1), Cu (0.01-0.15 mg L-1),
Fe (0.13-1.25 mg L-1), Mn (0.10-0.27 mg L-1), and Zn (0.12-0.69 mg L-1). As a result, it was determined
that the content of both volatile sulfur compounds and minerals in mutant garlic genotypes
was higher than in the control (cv. ‘Taşköprü 56’). The genotypes which had a higher
content of both volatile sulfur compounds and minerals were GM1, GM8, GM18, GM20, GM21,
GM22, GM33, GM35, GM36, GM37, GM39, GM40, GM46, and GM51. The research findings are
extremely valuable in revealing the originality of mutant garlic genotypes obtained by mutation
breeding, and establishing the foundation for an assessment of mutant garlic genotypes to be used
in breeding programs.
