Abstract
The invention provides seed and plants of the tomato hybrid designated BS 01031842. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of tomato hybrid BS 01031842, and to methods for producing a tomato plant produced by crossing a plant of tomato hybrid BS 01031842 with itself or with another tomato plant, such as a plant of another hybrid. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing. The invention further relates to parts of a plant of tomato hybrid BS 01031842, including the fruit and gametes of such plants.
Claims30
A seed of tomato hybrid BS 01031842, a sample of seed of said hybrid having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8594.
A tissue culture of regenerable cells of tomato hybrid BS 01031842, a sample of seed of said hybrid having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8594.
A method for producing a seed of a hybrid BS 01031842-derived tomato plant comprising the steps of:
- (a) crossing a tomato plant of hybrid BS 01031842, a sample of seed of said hybrid having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8594, with a second tomato plant;
- and
- (b) allowing seed of a BS 01031842-derived tomato plant to form.
A method of producing a tomato plant derived from hybrid BS 01031842 comprising the steps of:
- (a) growing a diploid reversion of a tomato plant of hybrid BS 01031842, a sample of seed of said hybrid having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8594;
- (b) allowing said diploid tomato plant to self-pollinate;
- and
- (c) harvesting seed from said diploid tomato plant.
A method of vegetatively propagating a plant of tomato hybrid BS 01031842 comprising the steps of:
- (a) collecting tissue capable of being propagated from a plant of tomato hybrid BS 01031842, a sample of seed of said hybrid having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8594;
- (b) cultivating said tissue to obtain proliferated shoots;
- and
- (c) rooting said proliferated shoots to obtain rooted plantlets.
A method of introducing a desired trait into tomato hybrid BS 01031842 comprising:
- (a) crossing a first parent plant of hybrid BS 01031842, a sample of seed of said hybrid having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8594, with a second tomato plant that comprises a desired trait to produce F1 progeny;
- (b) selecting an F1 progeny that comprises the desired trait;
- (c) crossing the selected F1 progeny with the first parent plant of hybrid BS 01031842 to produce backcross progeny;
- (d) selecting backcross progeny comprising the desired trait and the physiological and morphological characteristic of the first parent plant of tomato hybrid BS 01031842;
- (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) three or more times in succession to produce selected fourth or higher backcross progeny that comprise the desired trait.
- (f) crossing the plant produced in (e) with a second parent plant of hybrid BS 01031842, a sample of seed of said hybrid having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8594.
A method of producing a plant of tomato hybrid BS 01031842, a sample of seed of said hybrid having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8594, comprising an added desired trait, the method comprising introducing a transgene conferring the desired trait into a parent plant of tomato hybrid BS 01031842.
A hybrid tomato plant that exhibits a combination of traits comprising indeterminate growth, a long shelf life, large fruit, and resistance to both Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus (TSWV) and Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus (TYLCV), wherein the combination of traits is controlled by genetic means for the expression of such combination of traits found in tomato hybrid BS 01031842, a sample of seed of said hybrid having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8594.
