Thc Type Genetics
THC-type genetics refers to cannabis plants that produce predominantly tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) as their primary cannabinoid, as opposed to CBD-dominant or balanced chemotypes. This classification is determined by the CBDAS/CBDCS gene ratio, which controls whether the plant's synthase enzyme produces CBDA (THC precursor) or CBDA (CBD precursor). Lineage records frequently report that most commercial cannabis varieties fall into THC-type categories, with genetic inheritance following codominant patterns. Understanding THC-type genetics is fundamental to breeding programs seeking consistency in cannabinoid profiles across generations.

Breeders working with THC-type genetics select parent plants through cannabinoid testing to stabilize high-THCA accumulation and reduce CBD expression. Backcrossing and marker-assisted selection are common methods to lock in THC-dominant chemotypes while maintaining other desirable traits.
