Abstract

A novel sorghum variety designated PHK71BBIT and seed, plants and plant parts thereof. Methods for producing a plant that comprise crossing sorghum variety PHK71BBIT with another plant. Methods for producing a plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into PHK71BBIT through backcross conversion and/or transformation, and to the sorghum seed, plant and plant part produced thereby. Hybrid sorghum seed, plant or plant part produced by crossing the sorghum variety PHK71BBIT or a locus conversion of PHK71BBIT with another sorghum variety.

Claims (23)

1. A plant, non-seed plant part, seed, or plant cell of sorghum variety PHK71BBIT, representative seed of the variety having been deposited under ATCC accession number PTA-123562.

2. The plant, non-seed plant part, seed, or plant cell of claim 1 , further comprising a transgene, wherein the plant or a plant grown from the plant part, seed or plant cell otherwise has all of the phenotypic and morphological characteristics of sorghum variety PHK71BBIT.

3. The plant, non-seed plant part, seed, or plant cell of claim 2 , wherein the transgene confers a property selected from the group consisting of male sterility, site-specific recombination, abiotic stress tolerance, altered phosphorus, altered antioxidants, altered fatty acids, altered essential amino acids, altered carbohydrates, herbicide resistance, insect resistance, disease resistance, and salt tolerance.

4. The plant, non-seed plant part, seed, or plant cell of claim 1 , further comprising a locus conversion, wherein the plant or a plant grown from the plant part, seed or plant cell otherwise has all of the phenotypic and morphological characteristics of sorghum variety PHK71BBIT.

5. The plant, non-seed plant part, seed, or plant cell of claim 4 , wherein the locus conversion confers a property selected from the group consisting of male sterility, restorer gene, site-specific recombination, abiotic stress tolerance, altered phosphorus, altered antioxidants, altered fatty acids, altered essential amino acids, altered carbohydrates, herbicide resistance, insect resistance, disease resistance, and salt tolerance.

6. The plant, non-seed plant part, seed or plant cell of claim 4 , wherein the locus conversion is introduced into the plant by backcrossing or transformation.

7. A sorghum seed produced by crossing the plant or non-seed plant part of claim 4 with a different plant.

8. A plant produced by growing the seed of claim 7 .

9. A sorghum seed produced by crossing the plant or non-seed plant part of claim 1 with a different plant.

10. A plant produced by growing the seed of claim 9 .

11. A method for producing a second plant comprising applying plant breeding techniques to the plant of claim 10 , and wherein application of the techniques results in the production of the second plant.

12. A method comprising:

(a) crossing the plant of claim 10 with itself or a second plant or plant part to produce progeny seed;

(b) growing the progeny seed to produce a progeny plant and crossing the progeny plant with itself or a different plant to produce further progeny seed; and

(c) repeating step (b) for at least one additional generation to produce a sorghum plant derived from sorghum variety PHK71BBIT.

13. A method for producing a second sorghum plant or plant part, the method comprising doubling haploid seed generated from a cross of the plant of claim 8 with an inducer variety, thereby producing the second sorghum plant or plant part.

14. A method comprising crossing the plant or non-seed plant part of claim 1 with another plant or plant part to produce F 1 seed.

15. The F 1 seed produced by the method of claim 14 .

16. A method comprising growing the seed of claim 15 to produce a first plant, and crossing the first plant with itself or another plant.

17. The seed, plant, non-seed plant part or cell of claim 1 , further comprising a restorer gene introduced into sorghum variety PHK71BBIT by backcrossing or genetic transformation, wherein (i) the seed produces a plant which has otherwise all of the phenotypic and morphological characteristics of sorghum variety PHK71BBIT; (ii) the plant has otherwise all of the phenotypic and morphological characteristics of sorghum variety PHK71BBIT; or (iii) the non-seed plant part or cell produces a plant which has otherwise all of the phenotypic and morphological characteristics of sorghum variety PHK71BBIT.

18. A method comprising crossing the plant or non-seed plant part of claim 17 with another plant to produce F1 seed.

19. The F1 seed produced by the method of claim 18 .

20. A method comprising crossing a plant or non-seed plant part grown from the F1 seed of claim 19 with itself or another plant.
