The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of cucumber hybrid SV3487CP and the parent lines thereof, and to methods for producing a cucumber plant produced by crossing such plants with themselves or with another cucumber plant, such as a plant of another genotype. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing. The invention further relates to parts of such plants, including the fruit and gametes of such plants. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A cucumber plant comprising at least a first set of the chromosomes of cucumber line PSLEF13-03320GY, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-124107. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) A cucumber seed that produces the plant of claim 1. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The plant of claim 1, wherein the plant is a plant of said cucumber line PSLEF13-03320GY. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The plant of claim 1, wherein the plant is a plant of cucumber hybrid SV3487CP, a sample of seed of said hybrid having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-124247. ### Claim 5 (depends on 2) The seed of claim 2, wherein the seed is a seed of said cucumber line PSLEF13-03320GY. ### Claim 6 (depends on 2) The seed of claim 2, wherein the seed is a seed of cucumber hybrid SV3487CP, a sample of seed of said hybrid having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-124247. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) A plant part of the plant of claim 1, wherein the plant part comprises a cell of said plant. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) A cucumber plant having all the physiological and morphological characteristics of the plant of claim 1. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) A tissue culture of regenerable cells of the plant of claim 1. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) A method of vegetatively propagating the cucumber plant of claim 1, the method comprising the steps of: (a) collecting tissue capable of being propagated from the plant according to claim 1; and (b) propagating a cucumber plant from said tissue. ### Claim 11 A method of introducing a trait into a cucumber line, the method comprising: (a) utilizing as a recurrent parent a plant of cucumber line PSLEF13-03320GY, by crossing a plant of cucumber line PSLEF13-03320GY with a donor cucumber plant that comprises a trait to produce F1 progeny, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-124107; (b) selecting an F1 progeny that comprises the trait; (c) backcrossing the selected F1 progeny with a plant of the same cucumber line used as the recurrent parent in step (a) to produce backcross progeny; (d) selecting a backcross progeny comprising the trait; and (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) three or more times to produce a selected fourth or higher backcross progeny that comprises the trait and otherwise comprises all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of cucumber line PSLEF13-03320GY. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) A cucumber plant produced by the method of claim 11, wherein said cucumber plant comprises the trait and otherwise comprises all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of cucumber line PSLEF13-03320GY. ### Claim 13 A method of producing a cucumber plant comprising an added trait, the method comprising introducing a transgene conferring the trait into a plant of cucumber hybrid SV3487CP or cucumber line PSLEF13-03320GY, a sample of seed of said hybrid and line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-124247 and ATCC Accession Number PTA-124107, respectively. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) A cucumber plant produced by the method of claim 13. ### Claim 15 A cucumber plant comprising at least a first set of the chromosomes of cucumber line PSLEF13-03320GY, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-124107, further comprising a transgene. ### Claim 16 (depends on 15) The plant of claim 15, 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. ### Claim 17 A cucumber plant comprising at least a first set of the chromosomes of cucumber line PSLEF13-03320GY, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-124107, further comprising a single locus conversion. ### Claim 18 (depends on 17) The plant of claim 17, 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. ### Claim 19 A method for producing a seed of a cucumber plant derived from at least one of cucumber hybrid SV3487CP or cucumber line PSLEF13-03320GY, the method comprising the steps of: (a) crossing a cucumber plant of hybrid SV3487CP or line PSLEF13-03320GY with itself or a second cucumber plant, a sample of seed of said hybrid and line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-124247 and ATCC Accession Number PTA-124107, respectively; and (b) allowing seed of a hybrid SV3487CP-derived or line PSLEF13-03320GY-derived cucumber plant to form. ### Claim 20 A method of producing a seed of a hybrid SV3487CP-derived or line PSLEF13-03320GY-derived cucumber plant, the method comprising the steps of: (a) producing a hybrid SV3487CP-derived or line PSLEF13-03320GY-derived cucumber plant from a seed produced by crossing a cucumber plant of hybrid SV3487CP or line PSLEF13-03320GY with itself or a second cucumber plant, a sample of seed of said hybrid and line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-124247 and ATCC Accession Number PTA-124107, respectively; and (b) crossing the hybrid SV3487CP-derived or line PSLEF13-03320GY-derived cucumber plant with itself or a different cucumber plant to obtain a seed of a further hybrid SV3487CP-derived or line PSLEF13-03320GY-derived cucumber plant. ### Claim 21 (depends on 20) The method of claim 20, the method further comprising repeating said producing and crossing steps of (a) and (b) using a seed from said step (b) for producing a plant according to step (a) for at least one generation to produce a seed of an additional hybrid SV3487CP-derived or line PSLEF13-03320GY-derived cucumber plant. ### Claim 22 (depends on 1) A method of producing a cucumber fruit, the method comprising: (a) obtaining the plant according to claim 1, wherein the plant has been cultivated to maturity; and (b) collecting a cucumber fruit from the plant.
