Abstract

The invention provides seeds and plants of tomato hybrid SVTM9032. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds, plant parts, and tissue cultures of tomato hybrid SVTM9032 and to methods for producing a tomato plant produced by crossing such plants with themselves or with another plant, such as a tomato plant of another genotype. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing. The invention further relates to plants, seeds, plant parts, and tissue cultures of tomato hybrid SVTM9032 comprising introduced beneficial or desirable traits.

Claims (24)

1 . A tomato plant of tomato hybrid SVTM9032, wherein said plant comprises a first set of chromosomes and a second set of chromosomes, wherein said first set of chromosomes is a set of the chromosomes of tomato line PSQ-9Z16-9148 and said second set of chromosomes is a set of the chromosomes of tomato line PSQ-9Z16-6520V, a sample of seed of said lines having been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-125019 and NCMA Accession No. 202107025, respectively.

2 . A tomato seed that produces the plant of claim 1 .

3 . A plant part of the plant of claim 1 , wherein the plant part comprises a cell comprising said first set of chromosomes and said second set of chromosomes.

4 . A tomato plant having all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of the plant of claim 1 .

5 . A tissue culture of regenerable cells of the plant of claim 1 , wherein said regenerable cells comprise said first set of chromosomes and said second set of chromosomes.

6 . A method of vegetatively propagating the plant of claim 1 , the method comprising the steps of:

(a) collecting tissue capable of being propagated from the plant of claim 1 ; and

(b) propagating a tomato plant from said tissue.

7 . A method of producing a tomato plant comprising an added trait, the method comprising introducing a transgene by genetic transformation or site-specific modification conferring the trait into the plant of claim 1 .

8 . A tomato plant produced by the method of claim 7 , wherein said plant comprises the trait and otherwise comprises all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of tomato hybrid SVTM9032.

9 . A tomato plant of tomato hybrid SVTM9032, wherein said plant comprises a first set of chromosomes and a second set of chromosomes, wherein said first set of chromosomes is a set of the chromosomes of tomato line PSQ-9Z16-9148 and said second set of chromosomes is a set of the chromosomes of tomato line PSQ-9Z16-6520V, a sample of seed of said lines having been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-125019 and NCMA Accession No. 202107025, respectively, further comprising a transgene.

10 . The plant of claim 9 , wherein the transgene confers a trait selected from the group consisting of male sterility, herbicide tolerance, insect resistance, pest resistance, disease resistance, modified fatty acid metabolism, environmental stress tolerance, modified carbohydrate metabolism, and modified protein metabolism.

11 . A tomato plant of tomato hybrid SVTM9032, wherein said plant comprises a first set of chromosomes and a second set of chromosomes, wherein said first set of chromosomes is a set of the chromosomes of tomato line PSQ-9Z16-9148 and said second set of chromosomes is a set of the chromosomes of tomato line PSQ-9Z16-6520V, a sample of seed of said lines having been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-125019 and NCMA Accession No. 202107025, respectively, further comprising a single locus conversion.

12 . The plant of claim 11 , wherein the single locus conversion confers a trait selected from the group consisting of male sterility, herbicide tolerance, insect resistance, pest resistance, disease resistance, modified fatty acid metabolism, environmental stress tolerance, modified carbohydrate metabolism, and modified protein metabolism.

13 . A method for producing a seed of a tomato plant derived from tomato hybrid SVTM9032, the method comprising the steps of:

(a) crossing the plant of claim 1 with itself or a different tomato plant; and

(b) allowing a seed of a tomato hybrid SVTM9032-derived tomato plant to form.

14 . A method of producing a seed of a tomato hybrid SVTM9032-derived tomato plant, the method comprising the steps of:

(a) producing a tomato hybrid SVTM9032-derived tomato plant from a seed produced by crossing the plant of claim 1 with itself or a different tomato plant; and

(b) crossing the tomato hybrid SVTM9032-derived tomato plant with itself or a different tomato plant to obtain a seed of a further tomato hybrid SVTM9032-derived tomato plant.

15 . The method of claim 14 , the method further comprising repeating said producing and crossing steps of (a) and (b) using the seed from said step (b) for at least one generation to produce a seed of an additional tomato hybrid SVTM9032-derived tomato plant.

16 . A method of producing a tomato fruit, the method comprising:

(a) obtaining the plant of claim 1 , wherein the plant has been cultivated to maturity; and

(b) collecting a tomato fruit from the plant.
