Abstract
A novel rice cultivar, designated ‘Trenasse,’ is disclosed. The invention relates to the seeds of rice cultivar ‘Trenasse,’ to the plants of rice ‘Trenasse,’ and to methods for producing a rice plant produced by crossing the cultivar ‘Trenasse’ with itself or another rice variety, and to single gene conversions of such plants. The invention further relates to hybrid rice seeds and plants produced by crossing the cultivar ‘Trenasse’ with another rice cultivar.
Claims23
A rice seed designated ‘Trenasse,’ wherein a representative sample of said seed has been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-6825.
A method of introducing a desired trait into rice cultivar ‘Trenasse’ wherein the method comprises:
- (a) crossing ‘Trenasse’ plants, representative seed of which is deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-6825, with plants of another rice line that comprise the desired trait to produce F1 progeny plants;
- wherein the desired trait is selected from the group consisting of male sterility, herbicide resistance, insect resistance and resistance to bacterial, fungal, or viral disease;
- (b) selecting F1 progeny plants that have the desired trait to produce selected F1 progeny plants;
- (c) crossing the selected F1 progeny plants with the ‘Trenasse’ plants to produce first backcross progeny plants;
- (d) selecting for first backcross progeny plants that have both the desired trait and the physiological and morphological characteristics of rice cultivar ‘Trenasse’ 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 generation backcross progeny plants that comprise both the desired trait and all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of rice cultivar ‘Trenasse’ as described in the VARIETY DESCRIPTION INFORMATION and as determined at a 5% significance level when grown in the same environmental conditions.
