Scientific/model-organism use:
Linum bienne is maintained in genebank germplasm collections and used as a genetic resource in flax (Linum usitatissimum) improvement programs, particularly for interspecific crosses to introduce traits such as disease resistance and stress tolerance. It also serves as a model species for flax cytogenetics and studies of genome structure and evolution.
