Inbred broccoli line BRM50-3906
View Patent ↗Inbred broccoli lines, designated BRM50-3906 are disclosed. The invention relates to the seeds of inbred broccoli lines BRM50-3906, to the plants of inbred broccoli lines BRM50-3906, and to methods for producing a broccoli plant produced by crossing the inbred line BRM50-3906 with itself or another broccoli line. The invention further relates to hybrid broccoli seeds and plants produced by crossing the inbred line BRM50-3906 with another broccoli line.
1. An F 1 hybrid broccoli plant, or a part thereof, having as a parent plant, a plant of broccoli line BRM50-3905, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited with the American Type Culture Collection under ATCC Accession No. PTA-5198, wherein said plant part is selected from the group consisting of a leaf, a flower, a stem, a stalk, a stump, an ovule, a floret, pollen, a head, a callus, a protoplast, and a cell.
2. The plant part of claim 1 , wherein said cell is regenerable.
3. A tissue culture of regenerable cells of claim 2 .
4. The tissue culture according to claim 3 , comprising cells or protoplasts from a tissue selected from the group consisting of leaves, pollen, embryos, roots, root tips, anthers, flowers and fruit.
5. A broccoli plant regenerated from the tissue culture of claim 4 having all the physiological and morphological characteristics of the hybrid broccoli plant of claim 1 .
6. An F 1 hybrid broccoli plant, or a part thereof, having as a parent plant, a plant of broccoli line BRM50-3905, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited with the American Type Culture Collection under ATCC Accession No. PTA-5198, wherein said part produces a more compact and solid head with a higher head weight and head diameter compared to commercial hybrids Marathon, Legacy and Decathlon wherein said plant has increased yield compared to commercial hybrids Marathon, Legacy and Decathlon, wherein said plant part is selected from the group consisting of a leaf, a flower, a stem, a stalk, a stump, an ovule, a floret, pollen, a head, a callus, a protoplast, and a cell.
7. The F 1 hybrid broccoli plant of claim 6 , further comprising high tolerance to a characteristic selected from the group consisting of bacterial soft rot, hollow stem and cateye.
8. A plant having all the physiological and morphological characteristics of the hybrid broccoli plant of claim 6 .
9. A method for producing a hybrid seed comprising the steps of:
(a) crossing a broccoli plant of inbred line BRM50-3905, a sample of seed of said inbred line having been deposited with the American Type Culture Collection under ATCC Accession No. PTA-5198, with a second broccoli plant; and
(b) allowing said hybrid seed of said cross to form.
10. The method of claim 9 , wherein said second broccoli plant is an inbred broccoli plant.
11. The method of claim 9 , wherein said plant of inbred line BRM50-3905 is used as a male parent.
12. The method of claim 9 , wherein said plant of inbred line BRM50-3905 is used as a female parent.
13. An F 1 hybrid seed obtained from the method of claim 9 .
14. The method of claim 9 , wherein said second broccoli plant comprises a transgene.
15. A method of producing a food or feed comprising:
(a) obtaining an F 1 hybrid broccoli plant having as a parent plant, a plant of broccoli line BRM50-3905, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited with the American Type Culture Collection under ATCC Accession No. PTA-5198;
(b) growing said plant to maturity; and
(c) collecting a part from said plant.
16. The method of claim 15 , wherein said part is a broccoli head.
17. The method of claim 15 , wherein said part is a floret.
18. An F 1 plant obtainable from a cross of a plant of broccoli line BRM50-3905, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited with the American Type Culture Collection under ATCC Accession No. PTA-5198.
19. The F 1 hybrid plant of claim 1 .
20. The F 1 hybrid plant of claim 6 .
21. An F 1 hybrid seed, having as a parent plant a plant of broccoli line BRM50-3905, a sample of seed of said parent plant line having been deposited with the American Type Culture Collection under ATCC Accession No. PTA-5198.
