Famulus

The rapeseed hybrid Famulus was created on the MSL hybridization platform and is one of the first hybrids in the DSV portfolio to combine resistance to turnip yellow virus (TuYV) and genetic resistance to phoma based on the RLM-7 gene. This combination ensures high plant resistance to diseases and maintains a high health index throughout the entire vegetation period. The presence of genetically fixed resistance to TuYV in the parental and maternal lines of the hybrid provides a unique dual protection under high viral pressure.

Thanks to these characteristics, the Famulus hybrid offers expanded opportunities for successful cultivation under short rotation systems, which is especially important for modern agrotechnologies. In addition, the hybrid is adapted to different growing zones, efficient nitrogen use (N-Efficiency), and resistance to stress factors such as drought and lodging. These qualities make Famulus a reliable choice for farmers aiming to achieve a stable and high yield.

Famulus is characterized by optimal sowing and maturing times, good cold tolerance, and balanced development both in autumn and spring. High yield and oil content further enhance its advantages, ensuring economic efficiency of cultivation. All these properties make the Famulus hybrid a modern and promising solution for winter rapeseed production.
