MACIAS VALDEZ, Luis Martín et al. Orion: a new variety of garlic for the north central zone of Mexico. Rev. Mex. Cienc. Agríc [online]. 2021, vol.12, n.1, pp.163-170. Epub 21-Feb-2022. ISSN 2007-0934. https://doi.org/10.29312/remexca.v12i1.2206.
In order to carry out genetic improvement to generate garlic varieties that allow increasing yields in the garlic-producing areas of Aguascalientes, the variety Perla Orion of white garlic type was developed in the Experimental Field Pabellon-National Institute of Forestry, Agricultural and Livestock, derived from the clone R-35-10-1B, which is considered as an alternative to be exploited in the region due to its excellent botanical, horticultural and yield characteristics; the commercial use of the Orion variety allows obtaining from 16 to 18 t ha-1, compared to the average yield of 12 t ha-1, which represents an increase of over 30% and consequently the profitability of the crop.
