The F1 productive hybrid of rapeseed demonstrates high yield, oil content, and optimal combination of fatty acids. It possesses resistance to diseases such as clubroot and powdery mildew, significantly reducing crop losses and plant protection costs. Various methods of traditional breeding were used in the creation of this hybrid, combined with advanced biotechnologies, molecular selection, and in vitro cell methods for breeding doubled haploid lines and embryo cultures.
The field trials of the hybrid were conducted in the Gorodishchensky district of the Penza region at the farm of agronomist Rifat Asvyandiarovich Bibarsov with the support of local authorities.
In 2024, a comprehensive scientific and technical project on rapeseed breeding was launched within the framework of the RUSEED FSTP and Timiryazev Academy. The program aims to develop 12 F1 hybrids for spring and winter rapeseed with high efficiency and technological characteristics in the cultivation process. It is predicted that they will capture at least half of the market.
"These hybrids are the result of long and hard work of our specialists. We believe that our F1 rapeseed hybrids will successfully pass the trials and be approved for use in the main rapeseed-growing regions of Russia. The implementation of the joint project between the Timiryazev Academy and RUSEED will allow domestic farmers to access high-quality Russian rapeseed seeds, reducing dependence on imports," noted Professor Socrates Monakhos, head of the Department of Molecular Breeding, Cell Technologies, and Seed Production at the Timiryazev Academy.
"At the moment, about 70% of the country's spring rapeseed needs are covered by imports. We have outstanding developments and capabilities to create high-yielding domestic hybrids. Within our joint FSTP project, we will develop hybrids that will capture at least 50% of the market," added Mark Gecht, managing partner at RUSEED.
RUSEED is a Russian scientific and production company specializing in breeding and seed production. It is the largest producer of sunflower, soybean, and flax seeds in the country. Additionally, the company works with other crops, including corn, rapeseed, and sugar beet. RUSEED includes the breeding and seed center named after A. S. Ermolov and an agrobiotechnopark in the Republic of Adygea.
The company is present in 33 regions of Russia, with its headquarters in Krasnodar. RUSEED has 150 points for hybrid testing. RUSEED sunflower seeds are used on an area of over 1 million hectares.
