Nowadays, non-traditional edible oils of sesame, flax, mustard, chia etc. are widely used in various industries. Among them, the oil extracted from the seeds of Nigella damascena species, which possesses unique medicinal properties, is in great demand. In our research, we applied methods of individual selection and chose several forms, which differ from the ʻAzuriuʼ cultivar registered in the Catalogue of Plant Varieties and the initial population. One of the selected forms (ND4) was characterised by higher seed and oil productivity, good adaptability, adequate response to the technological elements applied in Comparative Testing of Varieties, and then it was proposed to the farm that had requested the seeds, where the necessary tests were done. The given form (ND-4), being stable in terms of production of raw material, will be submitted for registration in the Catalogue of Plant Varieties of the Republic of Moldova.
