## Abstract

The invention provides seed and plants of the bean line SVGN1174. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds, and tissue cultures of bean line SVGN1174 and to methods for producing a bean plant produced by crossing a plant of bean line SVGN1174 with itself or with another bean 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 a plant of bean line SVGN1174, including the pods and gametes of such plants.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A bean plant of bean line SVGN1174, a sample of seed of the line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-126533.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

A bean seed that produces the plant of claim 1.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

A plant part of the plant of claim 1, wherein the plant part comprises a cell of the plant.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

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

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

A tissue culture of regenerable cells of the plant of claim 1.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

A bean plant regenerated from the tissue culture of claim 5, wherein said plant has all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of bean line SVGN1174.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

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 bean plant from the tissue.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

A method of introducing a trait into a bean plant, the method comprising:
(a) utilizing as a recurrent parent the plant of claim 1 by crossing the plant with a donor bean plant that comprises a trait to produce F1 progeny;
(b) selecting an F1 progeny that comprises the trait;
(c) backcrossing the selected F1 progeny with a plant of the same bean line used as the recurrent parent in step (a) to produce backcross progeny;
(d) selecting a backcross progeny comprising the trait and otherwise comprising all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of the recurrent parent bean line used in step (a); and
(e) repeating steps (c) and (d) three or more times to produce a selected fourth or higher backcross progeny.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

A bean plant produced by the method of claim 8.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

A method of producing a bean plant comprising an added trait, the method comprising introducing a transgene conferring the trait into the plant of claim 1.

### Claim 11 (depends on 10)

A bean plant produced by the method of claim 10, wherein said plant comprises the trait and otherwise comprises all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of bean line SVGN1174.

### Claim 12

A bean plant of bean line SVGN1174, a sample of seed of the line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-126533, further comprising a transgene.

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The plant of claim 12, 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 14

A bean plant of bean line SVGN1174, a sample of seed of the line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-126533, further comprising a single locus conversion.

### Claim 15 (depends on 14)

The plant of claim 14, 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 16 (depends on 1)

A method for producing a seed of a bean plant derived from bean line SVGN1174, the method comprising the steps of:
(a) crossing the plant of claim 1 with itself or a second bean plant; and
(b) allowing a seed of a bean line SVGN1174-derived bean plant to form.

### Claim 17 (depends on 1)

A method of producing a seed of a bean line SVGN1174-derived bean plant, the method comprising the steps of:
(a) producing a bean line SVGN1174-derived bean plant from a seed produced by crossing a plant of claim 1 with itself or a second bean plant; and
(b) crossing the bean line SVGN1174-derived bean plant with itself or a different bean plant to obtain a seed of a further bean line SVGN1174-derived bean plant.

### Claim 18 (depends on 17)

The method of claim 17, the method further comprising repeating the producing and crossing steps of (a) and (b) using the seed from step (b) for producing a plant according to step (a) for at least one generation to produce a seed of an additional bean line SVGN1174-derived bean plant.

### Claim 19 (depends on 1)

A method of producing a bean, the method comprising:
(a) obtaining the plant of claim 1, wherein the plant has been cultivated to maturity; and
(b) collecting a bean from the plant.
