Most vft cultivars are created by sowing seeds and picking out ones with unique traits. With cross pollination even from "typical" VFT's you can get an occasional seedling that is unique due to the genetic shuffle and traits it will express. The only two VFT's I know of that were created in a lab are trichterfalle and schuppenstiel, and they were VFT seeds exposed to phytochemicals.
