description | Cannabis sativa (L.) is used to obtain fiber, seeds and phytocannabinoids for medicinal and recreational purposes. The commercial production of this species is limited by the lack of knowledge of the agronomic behavior and the content of phytocannabinoids, hence the need for evaluation of genetic diversity, for the selection of cultivars, in accordance with the legal provisions in force in Colombia. The objective of this work was to evaluate the agronomic characteristics and phytocannabinoid content of 10 cultivars, in Pueblo Bello-Cesar, northern Colombia. The study was conducted in 2022, under greenhouse conditions with polycarbonate cover and anti-aphid mesh. We evaluated 10 clones of territorial seed source, using cuttings of 13 cm in length, of female plants. The rooted cuttings were planted in 6 L bags, in a mesh house until harvest. The randomized complete block design was used, with 10 treatments and three repetitions. Each experimental unit consisted of 20 plants, with a density of 16 plants/m2, both in the vegetative and reproductive phases, with distances between plants and rows of 14 cm. Genetic variability was estimated in both vegetative and reproductive characteristics and phytocannabinoid content. Three groups of genotypes were identified, according to the combinations of alleles coding for the phytocannabinoid content: high THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), similar THC-CBD ratio and high CBD (cannabidiol), which determines their potential use, mainly in medicine. |

Cannabis sativa (L.) es utilizada para la obtención de fibra, semillas y fitocannabinoides con fines medicinales y recreativos. La producción comercial de esta especie está limitada por el desconocimiento del comportamiento agronómico y el contenido de fitocannabinoides, de allí que la necesidad de evaluación de la diversidad genética, para la selección de cultivares, de acuerdo con las disposiciones legales vigentes en Colombia. El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar las características agronómicas y el contenido de fitocannabinoides de 10 cultivares, en Pueblo Bello-Cesar, norte de Colombia. El estudio se realizó en 2022, bajo condiciones de invernadero con cubierta de policarbonato y malla antiáfidos. Se evaluaron 10 clones de fuente semillera territorial, utilizando esquejes de 13 cm de longitud, de plantas femeninas. Los esquejes enraizados se sembraron en bolsas de 6 L, en casa malla hasta su cosecha. Se utilizó el diseño de bloques completos aleatorizados, con 10 tratamientos y tres repeticiones. Cada unidad experimental estuvo conformada por 20 plantas, con una densidad de 16 plantas/m2 tanto en la fase vegetativa como reproductiva, con distancias entre plantas e hileras de 14 cm. Se estimó variabilidad genética tanto en las características vegetativas y reproductivas como en el contenido de fitocannabinoides. Se identificaron tres grupos de genotipos, según las combinaciones de alelos codificantes del contenido de fitocannabinoides: alto THC (tetrahidrocannabinol), similar proporción THC-CBD y alto CBD (cannabidiol), lo que determina su uso potencial, principalmente en medicina.
