Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the oilseed flax type. The plants have a low height and short stiff stems, which ensures lodging resistance. The flowers are pale blue, and the seeds have a light brown color.

Altess flax is distinguished by stable yield and a high content of alpha-linolenic acid in the seeds. Due to these qualities, the variety is often used in scientific research as a reference sample for evaluating the productivity and oil composition of other genotypes of the crop.
