Abstract
The invention provides seed and plants of the cucumber line designated APD147-4004Mo. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of cucumber line APD147-4004Mo, and to methods for producing a cucumber plant produced by crossing a plant of cucumber line APD147-4004Mo with itself or with another cucumber 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 cucumber line APD147-4004Mo, including the fruit and gametes of such plants.
Claims25
A plant of an inbred cucumber line that exhibits a combination of traits comprising resistance to angular leaf spot (Pseudomonas lachrymans, also known as Pseudomonas syringae pv, lachrymans), anthracnose race 1 (Colletotrichum orbiculare), cucumber scab (Cladosporium cucumerinum), downy mildew (Pseudopernospora cubensis), powdery mildew (Sphaerotheca fuliginea) and cucumber mosaic virus, wherein the combination of traits is controlled by genetic means for the expression of such combination of traits found in cucumber line APD147-4004Mo, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8575.
A cucumber plant comprising at least a first set of the chromosomes of cucumber line APD147-4004Mo, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8575.
A seed of cucumber line APD147-4004Mo, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8575.
A tissue culture of regenerable cells of cucumber line APD147-4004Mo, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8575.
A method for producing a seed of a line APD147-4004Mo-derived cucumber plant comprising the steps of:
- (a) crossing a cucumber plant of line APD147-4004Mo, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8575, with a second cucumber plant;
- and
- (b) allowing seed of a APD147-4004Mo-derived cucumber plant to form.
A method of vegetatively propagating a plant of cucumber line APD147-4004Mo comprising the steps of:
- (a) collecting tissue capable of being propagated from a plant of cucumber line APD147-4004Mo, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8575;
- (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 cucumber line APD147-4004Mo comprising:
- (a) crossing a plant of line APD147-4004Mo, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8575, with a second cucumber 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 APD147-4004Mo, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8575, to produce backcross progeny;
- (d) selecting backcross progeny comprising the desired trait and the physiological and morphological characteristic of cucumber line APD 147-4004Mo;
- 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.
A method of producing a plant of cucumber line APD147-4004Mo, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-8575, comprising an added desired trait, the method comprising introducing a transgene conferring the desired trait into a plant of cucumber line APD147-4004Mo.
