Abstract
The invention provides seed and plants of the squash line designated ZGN 130-1041T. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of squash line ZGN 130-1041T, and to methods for producing a squash plant produced by crossing a plant of squash line ZGN 130-1041T with itself or with another squash plant, such as a plant of another line. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing. The invention further relates to parts of a plant of squash line ZGN 130-1041T, including the fruit and gametes of such plants.
Claims25
A seed of squash line ZGN 130-1041T, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8397.
A plant of squash line ZGN 130-1041T, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8397.
A tissue culture of regenerable cells of squash line ZGN 130-1041T, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8397.
A method of producing squash seed, said method comprising crossing a plant of squash line ZGN 130-1041T, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8397, with a second squash plant.
A method for producing a seed of a line ZGN 130-1041T-derived squash plant, said method comprising the steps of:
- (a) crossing a squash plant of line ZGN 130-1041T, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8397, with a second squash plant;
- and
- (b) allowing seed of a ZGN 130-1041T-derived squash plant to form.
A method of vegetatively propagating a plant of squash line ZGN 130-1041T, said method comprising the steps of:
- (a) collecting tissue capable of being propagated from a squash plant of line ZGN 130-1041T, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8397;
- (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 squash line ZGN 130-1041T, said method comprising:
- (a) crossing a plant of line ZGN 130-1041T, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8397, with a second squash 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 line ZGN 130-1041T (ATCC Accession Number PTA-8397) to produce backcross progeny;
- (d) selecting backcross progeny comprising the desired trait and the physiological and morphological characteristic of squash line ZGN 130-1041T;
- and
- (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 and all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of squash line ZGN 130-1041T when grown in the same environmental conditions.
A method of producing a plant of squash line ZGN 130-1041T, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8397, comprising an added desired trait, the method comprising introducing a transgene conferring the desired trait into a plant of squash line ZGN 130-1041T.
A plant that comprises all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of squash line ZGN 130-1041T, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8397.
A method of determining the genotype of a plant of squash line ZGN 130-1041T, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8397, said method comprising obtaining a sample of nucleic acids from said plant and detecting in said nucleic acids a plurality of polymorphisms.
