Variety description

10 August 2026

The Sifnos variety was bred at the Cereal Institute in Thessaloniki. It is classified as a high-yielding variety with high pasta-making and baking qualities, including protein content and gluten index.

The plant possesses high adaptability to Mediterranean conditions and pronounced tolerance to water stress, which is confirmed by an increased proline content under drought. The variety shows high sensitivity to the environment and yield variability depending on growing conditions.

Sifnos is often used in scientific breeding programs as a reference sample when studying grain quality, adaptation to environmental conditions, and resistance to storage pests.
