Hybrid tomato varieties ‘E15C42784’, ‘E15C42790’ and ‘E15C42808’
Hybrid tomato varieties designated ‘E15C42784’, ‘E15C42790’, and ‘E15C42808’ are disclosed. The present disclosure relates to the seeds, plants, and to methods for producing other tomato lines, cultivars, or hybrids derived from the hybrid tomato varieties selected from ‘E15C42784’, ‘E15C42790’, and ‘E15C42808’.
1 . A hybrid tomato seed designated as ‘E15C42784’, representative sample of seed having been deposited under NCIMB Accession Number 44171.
2 . A tomato plant produced by growing the seed of claim 1 .
3 . A plant part from the plant of claim 2 , wherein said part is a leaf, an ovule, a pollen grain, a fruit, or a cell.
4 . The plant part of claim 3 , wherein said part is a fruit.
5 . A tomato plant derived from, and having all, or essentially all, the physiological and morphological characteristics of, the tomato plant of claim 2 .
6 . A plant part from the plant of claim 5 , wherein said part is a leaf, an ovule, a pollen grain, a fruit, or a cell.
7 . The plant part of claim 6 , wherein said part is a fruit.
8 . A pollen grain or an ovule of the plant of claim 2 .
9 . A protoplast produced from the plant of claim 2 .
10 . A tissue or cell culture of the plant of claim 2 , wherein said cells or protoplasts are produced from a plant part selected from the group consisting of root, root tip, meristematic cell, stem, hypocotyl, petiole, cotyledon, leaf, flower, anther, pollen, pistil, and fruit.
11 . A tomato plant regenerated from the tissue culture of claim 10 , wherein
the plant has all, or essentially all, of the morphological and physiological characteristics of a tomato plant produced by growing seed designated as ‘E15C42784’, representative sample of seed having been deposited under NCIMB Accession Number 44171.
12 . A method of making tomato seeds, said method comprising crossing the plant of claim 2 with another tomato plant and harvesting seed therefrom.
13 . A method of producing a seed derived from the ‘E15C42784’ tomato plant of claim 2 , comprising the steps:
(a) crossing a hybrid tomato designated as ‘E15C42784’, representative sample of seed having been deposited under NCIMB Accession Number 44171, with itself or a different tomato plant;
(b) allowing seed of an ‘E15C42784’-derived tomato plant to form.
14 . The method of claim 13 further comprising:
(c) crossing a plant grown from ‘E15C42784’-derived tomato seed with itself or a different tomato plant to yield additional ‘E15C42784’-derived tomato seed;
(d) growing the additional ‘E15C42784’-derived tomato seed of step (c) to yield additional ‘E15C42784’-derived tomato plants; and
(e) repeating the crossing and growing of steps (c) and (d) for at least one additional generation to generate further ‘E15C42784’-derived tomato plants.
15 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the at least one additional generation comprises an additional 3-10 generations.
16 . A method of vegetatively propagating a plant of tomato variety designated as ‘E15C42784’, the method comprising the steps of:
(a) collecting tissue capable of being propagated from a plant of hybrid tomato variety ‘E15C42784’, representative seed of said hybrid tomato variety having been deposited under NCIMB Accession Number 44171;
(b) cultivating the tissue to obtain proliferated shoots; and
(c) rooting the proliferated shoots to obtain rooted plantlets.
17 . The method of claim 16 , further comprising step (d) growing plants from the rooted plantlets.
18 . A method of producing a tomato fruit, said method comprising growing the plant of claim 2 until it sets at least one fruit, and harvesting the fruit.
