Narrative
Developed at the facilities of the Dept. of Horticulture, Purdue Univ., West Lafayette, IN by James E. Simon, Professor and Mario R. Morales, Research Scientist. Derived by selfing and selection from a distinct plant found in a population planted for observation in 1989. Population was formed by naturally intercrossing 52 USDA basil accessions, originally from Iran, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Yugoslavia, and Zambia in 1985. A single plant (identified later as PFT) with unique growth habit and flower morphology, was selected for development based upon its small flatten plant structure, intensely compact purple inflorescences, deep green leaf color, attractive appearance, and sweet fragrance. Selfed progeny from the single plant was grown in 1992 and found to be highly heterogeneous. Flat top plants with very compact purple inflorescences and high linalool content were selected and selfed for 5 generations. Natural selfing was accomplished by isolating the plants in the greenhouse. The final single line selected was evaluated in 1997 and 1998 and no variants were observed. No further selection on this line was needed.
