Abstract

Modern sunflower hybrid breeding is focused on combining multiple economic traits within a single genotype. The article presents results on the expression of valuable traits in the first hybrid generation of sunflower, such as high yield, large seeds, high oil content, high oleic acid content, early maturity, and broomrape resistance. The variability of these traits was examined in relation to the genotype and the year of hybrid testing. Hybrid combinations were identified that combine high oleic acid content with other economic traits. Based on phenotypic dominance degree, inheritance patterns for valuable economic traits in the first hybrid generation were determined.
