The successful use of plant breeding for improving desirable traits requires the existence of genetic variability of these traits. Induced mutations are often used for creation of new genetic variability within the certain crop. Mutation breeding is successfully used for increasing genetic variation in sunflower. Although sunflower oil is appreciated as a high quality commodity, new emerging markets are demanding changes in oil quality. It was found that mutagens application causes changes in fatty acid composition of sunflower oil. Different mutants have been released by induced mutations: high-oleic (more than 80%), mid-oleic (50-80%), high palmitic and/or high-stearic, as well as mutants with low saturate fatty acids content.
