Classification of garlic cultivars using an electronic nose
Electronic nose system was developed with PCA for identifying garlic cultivars. The performance of the electronic nose system was confirmed using AFLP and GCMS. Differences between four garlic cultivar were verified using AFLP DNA fingerprints. Differences in the amount of vinyldithiins of each cultivar were found using GCMS. Four garlic cultivars were consistently placed in three groups using all methods.
