According to DNA analyses carried out in 2018, it originates from a presumably natural cross between Hebén x unknown father variety. However, this is based on only 20 DNA markers (see under molecular genetics). Direct descendants are Egiodola (new breed), as well as Preto Cardana and Quebranta (from presumably natural crosses). On the Canary Island of Tenerife there is a pink-berry mutation Negramoll Mulato.
