ABSTRACT KEYWORDS
Considering the ancient importance of cannabis and the current trend toward its deregulation Commercial cannabis
worldwide, it is imperative to develop best management practices to legitimize the crop. The production; genetic
genetic backgrounds of commercially-sold varieties must be determined in order to standardize the improvement; marijuana
products produced from them and to efficiently improve them for future needs. Currently the
genetic backgrounds of most cannabis varieties are unknown or suspect. It is possible that some are
merely clones of other varieties. By utilizing modern tools of genetic analyses, the identities of all or
most existing varieties, as well as their parentages, will be determined. As with all major crops,
understanding varietal identity is a crucial step required to modernize the cannabis industry. This
article describes and explores the derivation of 601 modern varieties in order to provide a
fundamental point of reference for scientists to study cannabis genetics in the future.
