An experiment conducted during rabi, 2011–12 at the Research Farm, College of Agriculture, Bikaner, Rajasthan revealed that the variety JG-811 recorded maximum population of thrips while G-50 recorded the lowest. The maximum yield was recorded in the G-50 and minimum in JG-811. A negative correlation between morphological parameters of the varieties/genotypes (plant height, number of leaves per plant, bulb girth and number of cloves per bulb) with thrips population was also obseved.
