Garden bean SB4534
View Patent ↗A novel garden bean cultivar, designated SB4534, is disclosed. The invention relates to the seeds of garden bean cultivar SB4534, to the plants of garden bean line SB4534 and to methods for producing a garden bean plant by crossing the cultivar SB4534 with itself or another garden bean line. The invention further relates to methods for producing a garden bean plant containing in its genetic material one or more transgenes and to the transgenic plants produced by that method and to methods for producing other garden bean lines derived from the cultivar SB4534.
1. Seed of garden bean cultivar designated SB4534, representative seed of said cultivar having been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-12834.
2. The garden bean plant, or a part thereof, produced by growing the seed of claim 1 .
3. Pollen of the plant of claim 2 .
4. An ovule of the plant of claim 2 .
5. A pod or a berry of the plant of claim 2 .
6. A tissue culture of regenerable cells of a plant of garden bean cultivar designated SB4534, wherein the tissue regenerates plants having all the morphological and physiological characteristics of a plant of garden bean cultivar designated SB4534, representative seeds having been deposited ATCC Accession No. PTA-12834.
7. The tissue culture of claim 6 , wherein the tissue culture is selected from the group consisting of protoplast tissue culture and calli tissue culture, and wherein the regenerable cells are produced from meristematic cells, leaves, pollen, embryo, root, root tips, stems, anther, flowers, seeds or pods.
8. A garden bean plant regenerated from the tissue culture of claim 6 , wherein the regenerated plant has all the morphological and physiological characteristics of a plant of garden bean cultivar designated SB4534, representative seeds having been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-12834.
9. A method for producing a hybrid garden bean seed comprising crossing a first parent garden bean plant with a second parent garden bean plant and harvesting the resultant hybrid garden bean seed, wherein said first or second parent garden bean plant is the garden bean plant of claim 2 .
10. A hybrid garden bean seed produced by the method of claim 9 .
11. A method of producing an herbicide resistant garden bean plant comprising transforming the garden bean plant of claim 2 with a transgene that confers herbicide resistance.
12. An herbicide resistant garden bean plant produced by the method of claim 11 .
13. The garden bean plant of claim 12 , wherein the transgene confers resistance to an herbicide selected from the group consisting of imidazolinone, sulfonylurea glyphosate, glufosinate, L-phosphinothricin, triazine and benzonitrile.
14. A method of producing an insect resistant garden bean plant comprising transforming the garden bean plant of claim 2 with a transgene that confers insect resistance.
15. An insect resistant garden bean plant produced by the method of claim 14 .
16. The garden bean plant of claim 15 , wherein the transgene encodes a Bacillus thuringiensis protein.
17. A method of producing a disease resistant garden bean plant comprising transforming the garden bean plant of claim 2 with a transgene that confers resistance to bacterial, fungal or viral disease.
18. A disease resistant garden bean plant produced by the method of claim 17 .
19. A method of producing a garden bean pod comprising:
a. growing the garden bean plant of claim 2 to produce a garden bean pod, and
b. harvesting said garden bean pod.
20. The method according to claim 19 , further comprising processing said garden bean pod to obtain a seed.
21. The method according to claim 20 , wherein said seed is a fresh product, a canned product or a frozen product.
22. A method of producing a seed comprising obtaining a pod of the plant of claim 2 and processing said pod to obtain a seed.
23. The method according to claim 22 , wherein said seed is a fresh product, a canned product or a frozen product.
24. The method of claim 9 additionally comprising two or more generations of backcrossing to one of said parent garden bean plants.
