Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to light-seeded specimens. The seeds are characterized as small and have a wrinkled surface.

The technological qualities of the variety are determined by a significant seed coat thickness, which slows down the processes of moisture absorption and grain softening during cooking.

The variety is mentioned as an Italian (Sicilian) specimen used in studies of local and breeding crops. Precise quantitative data on maturity group, plant height, and disease resistance indicators are absent in the publications.
