Variety description

10 August 2026

The Béa variety belongs to the chicory culture and is adapted to modern cultivation technologies that have replaced traditional variety populations and early hybrids.

The plant is used to obtain heads through root forcing in the dark. The variety is characterized by high sensitivity to the fungal disease Phytophthora cryptogea, which is why it is often used as a model organism in research on plant protection and fungicide efficacy.
