Variety traits
Allium sativum L.
The waxy bloom in garlic is a morphological trait that determines the intensity of the bluish-glaucous leaf color and influences the hydrophobicity of their surface.
In the reference 23 varieties crop Garlic, where this is mentioned in the description.
In garlic variety testing and breeding, the evaluation of the waxy bloom is visual and descriptive. Specialized quantitative indicators are not used; instead, a qualitative scale of intensity is applied, categorized into weak, medium, and strong degrees of expression.
The presence of the bloom gives the leaves a characteristic glaucous tint and significantly increases their hydrophobic properties, causing spray droplets to roll off the surface. This factor necessitates the mandatory addition of adjuvants to ensure effective retention of products on the plant.
