2 . A tomato plant produced by growing the seed of claim 1 .
3 . The plant part 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 having 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 . A plant part of claim 6 , wherein said part is a fruit.
8 . Pollen 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 produced from protoplasts or cells from 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 of the morphological and physiological characteristics of a tomato plant produced by growing tomato seed designated as ‘VT 19108230’, representative sample of seed having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number X2.
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 .- 14 . (canceled)
15 . A method of producing a seed derived from the ‘VT19108230’ tomato plant of claim 2 , comprising the steps of:
a) crossing the hybrid tomato designated as ‘VT 19108230’, representative sample of seed having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number X2, with itself or a second tomato plant; and
b) allowing seed of a ‘VT 19108230’-derived tomato plant to form.
16 . The method of claim 15 , further comprising the steps of:
c) crossing a plant grown from ‘VT 19108230’-derived tomato seed with itself or a second tomato plant to yield additional ‘VT 19108230’-derived tomato seed;
d) growing the additional ‘VT 19108230’-derived tomato seed of step (c) to yield additional ‘VT 19108230’-derived tomato plants; and
e) repeating steps (c) and (d) for an additional 3-10 generations to generate further ‘VT 19108230’-derived tomato plants.
17 . A method of vegetatively propagating a plant of tomato variety selected from the group consisting of hybrid tomato varieties designated as ‘VT19077208’ and ‘VT19108230’, the method comprising the steps of:
a) collecting tissue capable of being propagated from a plant of hybrid tomato variety selected from the group consisting of: hybrid tomato variety ‘VT 19077208’, representative seed of said hybrid tomato variety having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number X1 and hybrid tomato variety ‘VT19108230’, representative seed of said hybrid tomato variety having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number X2;
b) cultivating the tissue to obtain proliferated shoots; and
c) rooting the proliferated shoots to obtain rooted plantlets.
18 . The method of claim 17 , further comprising step (d) growing plants from the rooted plantlets.
19 . 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.
