Variety description

10 August 2026

The Séneca sunflower is a traditional landrace preserved in seed banks as a genetic resource. This accession is not a commercial hybrid and is not part of the product portfolio of modern breeding companies.

In scientific literature, the variety is used as an object for comparative trials. Researchers use it to study physiological characteristics, such as the response to water deficit, or as a line with specific genetic traits in breeding projects.
