Abstract
The present invention relates to a Eruca sativa seed designated 88-001 RZ, which exhibits a combination of traits including downy mildew resistance, medium to late bolting, no leaf division in at least the first three leaf pairs to emerge on a plant, round leaves of at least the first leaf pair to emerge on a plant. The present invention also relates to a Eruca sativa plant produced by growing the 88-001 RZ seed. The invention further relates to methods for producing the salad rocket cultivar, represented by salad rocket variety 88-001 RZ.
Claims21
A seed of salad rocket variety 88-001 RZ, a sample of seed of said variety having been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 42515.
A method of vegetatively propagating a plant of salad rocket variety 88-001 RZ comprising (a) collecting tissue capable of being propagated from a plant of salad rocket 88-001 RZ, a sample of seed of said variety having been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 42515, and (b) producing a rooted plant from said tissue.
A method for producing a seed of a 88-001 RZ-derived salad rocket plant comprising (a) crossing a plant of salad rocket variety 88-001 RZ, representative seed of which having been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 42515, with a second salad rocket plant, and (b) whereby seed of a 88-001 RZ-derived salad rocket plant forms.
A method of introducing at least one new trait into a plant of salad rocket variety 88-001 RZ comprising:
- (a) crossing a plant of salad rocket variety 88-001 RZ, representative seed of which having been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 42515, with a second salad rocket plant that comprises at least one new trait to produce progeny seed;
- (b) harvesting and planting the progeny seed to produce at least one progeny plant of a subsequent generation, wherein the progeny plant comprises the at least one new trait;
- (c) crossing the progeny plant with a plant of salad rocket variety 88-001 RZ to produce backcross progeny seed;
- (d) harvesting and planting the backcross progeny seed to produce a backcross progeny plant;
- and (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) for at least three additional generations to produce a salad rocket plant of variety 88-001 RZ comprising at least one new trait and all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of a plant of salad rocket variety 88-001 RZ, when grown in the same environmental conditions.
A method of producing a plant of salad rocket variety 88-001 RZ comprising at least one new trait, the method comprising introducing a mutation or transgene conferring the at least one new trait into a plant of salad rocket variety 88-001 RZ, wherein a sample of seed of said variety has been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 42515.
