The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of tomato hybrid SV0599TM and the parent lines thereof, and to methods for producing a tomato plant produced by crossing such plants with themselves or with another tomato 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 tomato plant of tomato hybrid SV0599TM, a sample of seed of said hybrid SV0599TM having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-121395. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) A seed that produces the plant of claim 1. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) A tissue culture of regenerable cells of the plant of claim 1. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The tissue culture according to claim 3, comprising cells or protoplasts from a plant part selected from the group consisting of embryos, meristems, cotyledons, pollen, leaves, anthers, roots, root tips, pistil, flower, seed, and stalks, wherein said cells or protoplasts comprise a cell or protoplast of said tomato hybrid SV0599TM. ### Claim 5 (depends on 3) A tomato plant regenerated from the tissue culture of claim 3, wherein said plant has all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of said tomato hybrid SV0599TM. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) A method of vegetatively propagating the tomato 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 tomato plant from said tissue. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) A method of producing a tomato plant comprising an added trait, the method comprising introducing by genetic transformation a transgene conferring the trait into the plant of claim 1. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) 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 said tomato hybrid SV0599TM. ### Claim 9 A tomato plant of tomato hybrid SV0599TM, a sample of seed of said hybrid SV0599TM having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-121395, further comprising a transgene. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) 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. ### Claim 11 A tomato plant of tomato hybrid SV0599TM, a sample of seed of said hybrid SV0599TM having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-121395, further comprising a single locus conversion. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) 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. ### Claim 13 (depends on 1) A method for producing a seed of a tomato plant derived from tomato hybrid SV0599TM, the method comprising the steps of: (a) crossing the tomato plant of claim 1 with itself or a different tomato plant; and (b) allowing a seed of a hybrid SV0599TM-derived tomato plant to form. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The method of claim 13, further comprising the steps of: (c) selfing a plant grown from said hybrid SV0599TM-derived tomato seed to yield an additional hybrid SV0599TM-derived tomato seed; (d) growing said additional hybrid SV0599TM-derived tomato seed of step (c) to yield an additional hybrid SV0599TM-derived tomato plant; and (e) repeating the selfing and growing steps of (c) and (d) to generate at least a first further hybrid SV0599TM-derived tomato plant. ### Claim 15 (depends on 14) The method of claim 14, further comprising the step of: (f) crossing the first further hybrid SV0599TM-derived tomato plant with a different tomato plant to produce a seed of a hybrid progeny plant. ### Claim 16 (depends on 1) A plant part of the plant of claim 1, wherein said plant part comprises a cell of said hybrid SV0599TM. ### Claim 17 (depends on 1) A method of producing a tomato fruit, the method comprising: (a) obtaining the plant according to claim 1, wherein the plant has been cultivated to maturity; and (b) collecting a tomato fruit from the plant.
