Abstract
The invention provides seed and plants of the pepper hybrid 9942595 and the parent lines thereof. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of pepper hybrid 9942595 and the parent lines thereof, and to methods for producing a pepper plant produced by crossing such plants with themselves or with another pepper 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 such plants, including the fruit and gametes of such plants.
Claims35
A pepper plant comprising at least a first set of the chromosomes of pepper line SBR 99-1260 or pepper line SBY 99-1201, a sample of seed of said lines having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8693, and ATCC Accession Number PTA-9222, respectively.
A seed comprising at least a first set of the chromosomes of pepper line SBR 99-1260 or pepper line SBY 99-1201, a sample of seed of said lines having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8693, and ATCC Accession Number PTA-9222, respectively.
A method of introducing a desired trait into a pepper line comprising:
- (a) utilizing as a recurrent parent a plant of either pepper line SBR 99-1260 or pepper line SBY 99-1201, by crossing a plant of line SBR 99-1260 or line SBY 99-1201, a sample of seed of said lines having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8693, and ATCC Accession Number PTA-9222, respectively, with a second donor pepper 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 a plant of the same pepper line used as the recurrent parent in step (a) to produce backcross progeny;
- (d) selecting backcross progeny comprising the desired trait and the physiological and morphological characteristics of the recurrent parent pepper line used in step (a);
- and
- (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) three or more times to produce selected fourth or higher backcross progeny that comprise the desired trait, and otherwise comprise essentially all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of the recurrent parent pepper line used in step (a).
A method of producing a plant comprising an added trait, the method comprising introducing a transgene conferring the trait into a plant of hybrid 9942595, line SBR 99-1260 or line SBY 99-1201, a sample of seed of said hybrid and lines having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8692, ATCC Accession Number PTA-8693, and ATCC Accession Number PTA-9222, respectively.
A method for producing a seed of a plant derived from at least one of hybrid 9942595, line SBR 99-1260 or line SBY 99-1201 comprising the steps of:
- (a) crossing a pepper plant of hybrid 9942595, line SBR 99-1260 or line SBY 99-1201 with itself or a second pepper plant;
- a sample of seed of said hybrid and lines having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8692, ATCC Accession Number PTA-8693, and ATCC Accession Number PTA-9222, respectively;
- and
- (b) allowing seed of a hybrid 9942595, line SBR 99-1260 or line SBY 99-1201-derived pepper plant to form.
