Thcv Dominant Lines
THCV-dominant lines are cannabis strains where tetrahydrocannabivarin comprises a notably higher proportion of the cannabinoid profile than THC. These genetics are relatively uncommon in commercial breeding, with lineage records frequently reporting THCV dominance in certain African and Southeast Asian landraces, particularly Durban Poison and related sativas. Breeders isolating THCV-dominant phenotypes typically work from these regional sources or from deliberate crossing programs designed to amplify this minor cannabinoid. The trait is chemically stable but phenotypically recessive in many hybrid backgrounds, making consistent THCV expression a breeding challenge.

Breeders working in THCV-dominant development often employ backcrossing to landrace stock or use marker-assisted selection where genetics labs identify THCV synthase expression. Stabilizing THCV dominance across multiple generations requires isolation of consistent phenotypes and careful selection, as the trait frequently regresses toward THC dominance in F2 and F3 generations.
