“…Globally, oilseed sunflower accounts for 90% of the value of the sunflower crop, with the remaining 10% coming from confectionary sunflower (Hladni, 2016). Oilseed sunflower accounts for up to 12% of the worldwide production of vegetable oils, ranking fourth after palm, soybean and canola oil (Rauf et al, 2017).…”

Modern breeding of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.), which started 100 years ago, increased the number and the diversity of cultivated forms. In addition, for more than 50 years, wild sunflower and other Helianthus species have been collected in North America where they all originated. Collections of both cultivated and wild forms are maintained in gene banks in many countries where sunflower is an important crop, with some specificity according to the availability of germplasm and to local research and breeding programmes. Cultivated material includes land races, open pollinated varieties, synthetics and inbred lines. The majority of wild accessions are ecotypes of wild Helianthus annuus, but also 52 other species of Helianthus and a few related genera. The activities of three gene banks, in USA, France and Serbia, are described in detail, supplemented by data from seven other countries. Past and future uses of the genetic resources for environmental adaptation and breeding are discussed in relation to genomic and improved phenotypic knowledge of the cultivated and wild accessions available in the gene banks.

“…Regardless of its forms, the consumption of sunflower‐based food provides consumers with appropriate nutritional and health benefits (Rauf et al., 2017). The nutritional and medicinal aspects of sunflowers have not been given much attention like other oilseed crops, although human beings depend on sunflower owing to its nutritional contents.…”

The use of biofertilizers in developing environmentally friendly agriculture as an alternative to chemical‐based fertilizers in enhancing food production is promising in sustainable agriculture for the improvement in the yield of some commercial crops such as sunflowers and other oilseed crops in terms of quality and quantity. Sunflower is an important oilseed crop native to South America and currently cultivated throughout the world. Generally, the sunflower is considered important based on its nutritional and medicinal value. Due to its beneficial health effects, sunflower has been recognized as functional foods or nutraceutical, although not yet fully harnessed. Sunflower contains mineral elements and phytochemicals such as dietary fiber, manganese, vitamins, tocopherols, phytosterols, triterpene glycosides, α‐tocopherol, glutathione reductase, flavonoids, phenolic acids, carotenoids, peptides, chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, alkaloids, tannins, and saponins; and these compounds contribute to their functional and nutraceutical development. The extract from sunflower is known to be a potential source of antimicrobial, anti‐inflammatory, antitumor, and antioxidants agents that protect human cells against harmful reactive oxygen molecules and pathogenic microorganisms. Also, the pharmacological survey on sunflower had revealed its curative power to different kinds of diseases. The health benefits of sunflower include blood pressure and diabetic control, skin protection, and lowering cholesterol and other functions. This review is written with appropriate referencing to previously published work and provides updated information regarding the new method of organic farming for sunflower production, nutritional and health benefits, and its by‐products as human diet and livestock feed. Also, the constraints of sunflower production are elucidated.

“…Sunflower is one of the most important oilseed crops, which takes position four in the global production of vegetable oil after palm, soybean, and rapeseed. It is known that oilseed content is influenced by both environmental conditions and genetic factors (Rauf et al, 2017). That's why production of selection hybrids with changed oil properties is one of the key objectives of oilseed crop breeding (Jocic´, Miladinovic´, and Kaya 2015).…”

Cultivated sunflower in one of the key plants used by humans. Nowadays sunflower is planted mainly for the seed oil. It takes position number four on the global seed oil market. Selection of hybrids with increased oil content and changed oil properties is one of the basic directions in sunflower hybrid breeding. Due to the extensive climate change and the growing human population, selection time became a serious bottleneck on the way to the production of new cultivars. High-throughput genotyping and phenotyping technologies can push forward sunflower breeding and help reducing time required for the selection process.
