View Patent ↗The present invention relates to a new and distinctive canola cultivar, designated DN051607. Also included are seeds of canola cultivar DN051607, to the plants, or plant parts, of canola DN051607 and to methods for producing a canola plant produced by crossing the canola DN051607 with itself or another canola cultivar, and the creation of variants by mutagenesis or transformation of canola DN051607.
1. A seed of canola cultivar designated DN051607, wherein a representative sample of seed of said cultivar was deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-10174.
2. A canola plant, or a part thereof, produced by growing the seed of claim 1 .
3. A method of introducing a desired trait into canola cultivar DN051607, wherein the method comprises: (a) crossing a DN051607 plant, wherein a representative sample of seed was deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-10174, with a plant of another canola cultivar that comprises a desired trait to produce F 1 progeny plants, wherein the desired trait is selected from the group consisting of male sterility, herbicide resistance, insect resistance, and resistance to bacterial disease, fungal disease or viral disease; (b) selecting one or more progeny plants that have the desired trait to produce selected progeny plants; (c) crossing the selected progeny plants with the DN051607 plants to produce backcross progeny plants; (d) selecting for backcross progeny plants that have the desired trait and physiological and morphological characteristics of canola cultivar DN051607 to produce selected backcross progeny plants; and (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) three or more times to produce selected fourth or higher backcross progeny plants that comprise the desired trait and an oleic acid value of about 70% and an α-linolenic acid value of less than about 3%.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the plants further comprise a yield greater than about 2100 kg/ha, a protein value of greater than 45%, or a glucosinolate value of less than 12%.
5. The method of claim 3 , wherein the plants further comprise resistance to Blackleg ( Leptosphaeria maculans ), Fusarium wilt, or White Rust.
6. The method of claim 3 , wherein the plants further comprise herbicide resistance to an herbicide selected from the group consisting of imidazolinone, sulfonylurea, glyphosate, glufosinate, L-phosphinothricin, triazine, Clearfield, Dicamaba, 2,4-D, and benzonitrile.
7. The method of claim 3 , wherein the plants comprise all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of canola cultivar DN051607 as shown in Tables 1, 2 and 3.
8. A canola plant produced by the method of claim 3 , wherein the plant has the desired trait and desired trait comprises an oleic acid value of about 70% and an α-linolenic acid value of less than about 3%.
9. The canola plant of claim 8 , wherein the desired trait further comprises herbicide resistance and the resistance is conferred to an herbicide selected from the group consisting of imidazolinone, sulfonylurea, glyphosate, glufosinate, L-phosphinothricin, triazine, Clearfield, Dicamaba, 2,4-D, and benzonitrile.
10. The canola plant of claim 8 , wherein the desired trait further comprises insect resistance and the insect resistance is conferred by a transgene encoding a Bacillus thuringiensis endotoxin.
11. The canola plant of claim 8 , wherein the desired trait further comprises resistance to Blackleg, Fusarium wilt, or White Rust.
12. The canola plant of claim 8 , wherein the plant comprises all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of canola cultivar DN051607, as shown in Tables 1, 2, and 3.
13. A method of modifying fatty acid metabolism or modifying carbohydrate metabolism of canola cultivar DN051607 wherein the method comprises: (a) crossing a DN051607 plant, wherein a representative sample of seed was deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-10174, with a plant of another canola cultivar to produce F 1 progeny plants that comprise a nucleic acid molecule encoding an enzyme selected from the group consisting of phytase, fructosyltransferase, levansucrase, alpha-amylase, invertase and starch branching enzyme or encoding an antisense of stearyl-ACP desaturase; (b) selecting one or more progeny plants that have said nucleic acid molecule to produce selected progeny plants; (c) crossing the selected progeny plants with the DN051607 plants to produce backcross progeny plants; (d) selecting for backcross progeny plants that have said nucleic acid molecule and physiological and morphological characteristics of canola cultivar DN051607 to produce selected backcross progeny plants; and (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) three or more times to produce selected fourth or higher backcross progeny plants that comprise said nucleic acid molecule and have an oleic acid value of about 70% and an α-linolenic acid value of less than about 3%.
14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the plants further comprise a yield greater than about 2100 kg/ha, a protein value of greater than 45%, or a glucosinolate value of less than 12%.
15. The method of claim 13 , wherein the plants further comprise resistance to Blackleg ( Leptosphaeria maculans ), Fusarium wilt, or White Rust.
16. The method of claim 13 , wherein the plants further comprise herbicide resistance to an herbicide selected from the group consisting of imidazolinone, sulfonylurea, glyphosate, glufosinate, L-phosphinothricin, triazine, Clearfield, Dicamaba, 2,4-D, and benzonitrile.
17. The method of claim 13 , wherein the plants comprise all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of canola cultivar DN051607 as shown in Tables 1, 2 and 3.
