Considering the importance of the garlic plant in the medicinal and industrial field and also the existence of little information about the distribution, diversity and biochemical characteristics of native populations, this research was carried out as a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design and three replications was carried out in the central laboratory of Razi University in 2023to group six ecotypes from different parts of Hamedan province based on their place of growth and determine their biochemical traits. The results of variance analysis of the studied traits showed a significant difference between the ecotypes in the traits of total chlorophyll, chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, soluble sugar, total phenol, flavonoid, and the two leaf and seed samples. The results of examining the interaction effect of native populations in the samples indicated the significance of the total phenol content index among native populations. The native populations were grouped based on the cluster diagram and decomposition into main components, and they were placed in different groups considering their biochemical traits. Considering the geographical conditions of the samples and their presence in the same geographic latitudes, the difference between the samples may be attributed to the difference in the genotypes of the populations. There was a positive and significant correlation between chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and total chlorophyll. There was also a positive and significant correlation between total phenol and flavonoid content. Based on the traits studied, Maryanj, Asad-abad and then Bahar-2 native populations can be introduced as desirable examples in clinical studies and can also be used for breeding programs.
