Abstract     Healthy plants of garlic cvs. Ptujski jesenski and Ptujski spomladanski were compared with ELITA plants. The healthy plants were produced by thermotherapy and isolated apical meristem culture, in vitro. The fourth generation of bulbs was compared in cv. Ptujski jesenski. The production of healthy bulbs was by 38-41% higher than that from ELITA cloves. At cv. Ptujski spomladanski the second generation was compared. The bulb growth increased when bigger cloves were planted. From the results obtained it was evident that healthy plants would be useful as high quality elite material and for further selection work.
