It is an alohexaploid plant, due to its conformation of 42 chromosomes divided into 6 sets from three different ones. The plant has three identical genomes, which have repeated genetic information, which gives the species itself great adaptability to different environments.

It is adaptable to diverse conditions and thrives in sub-tropical, moderately temperate and moderately cold climates. The shape of the seed is ovoid and the embryo or germ is housed in the most flattened extremity.
