Abstract
An inbred carrot line, designated S-D813B, is disclosed. The invention relates to the seeds of inbred carrot line S-D813B, to the plants of inbred carrot line S-D813B and to methods for producing a carrot plant, either inbred or hybrid, by crossing the inbred line S-D813B with itself or another carrot line. The invention further relates to methods for producing a carrot plant containing in its genetic material one or more transgenes and to the transgenic plants produced by that method and to methods for producing other inbred carrot lines derived from the inbred S-D813B.

Seed of an inbred carrot variety designated S-D813B, representative seed having been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-5949.
A method of introducing a desired trait into carrot inbred line S-D813B comprising:
- (a) crossing a S-D813B carrot plant representative seed having been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-5949, with a plant of another carrot line that comprise a desired trait to produce F1 progeny plants, wherein the desired trait is selected from male sterility, herbicide resistance, insect resistance, bacterial resistance, fungal resistance or viral resistance;
- (b) selecting F1 progeny plants that have the desired trait to produce selected F1 progeny plants;
- (c) backcrossing the selected F1 progeny plants with a S-D813B plant to produce first backcross progeny plants;
- (d) selecting backcross progeny plants that have the desired trait and physiological and morphological characteristics of carrot inbred line S-D813B to produce selected first backcross progeny plants;
- and
- (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) three or more times in succession to produce selected fourth or higher backcross progeny plants that comprise the desired trait and all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of carrot inbred line S-D813B as described in the Variety Description Information and as determined at a 5% significance level when grown in the same environmental conditions.
