Before modern breeding… there were origin plants.

Region-specific, naturally adapted, and the foundation of everything that came after 🌍🌱

We broke down the varieties that shaped today’s most recognizable:

How plants search for nutrients

TUM research shows: Plants adapt their roots to cope with boron deficiency. Findings should enable climate-resilient, high-yield rapeseed varieties.
