Abstract
The present invention relates to an inbred sunflower line, designated OID687R. The invention relates to the seeds of inbred sunflower line OID687R, to the plants of inbred sunflower line OID687R and to the methods for producing a sunflower plant, either inbred or hybrid, by crossing the inbred line OID687R with itself or another sunflower line. The invention further relates to methods for producing a sunflower 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 sunflower lines derived from the inbred OID687R.
Claims24
A seed of sunflower inbred line designated OID687R, representative seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession PTA-13594.
A method of introducing a desired trait into sunflower inbred line OID687R, wherein the method comprises:
- (a) crossing OID687R plants grown from OID687R seed representative seed of which has been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-13594, with plants of another sunflower line that comprise a desired trait to produce progeny plants, wherein the desired trait is selected from the group consisting of male sterility, herbicide resistance, insect resistance, disease resistance and oil content;
- (b) selecting progeny plants that have the desired trait to produce selected progeny plants;
- (c) crossing the selected progeny plants with the OID687R plants to produce backcross progeny plants;
- (d) selecting for backcross progeny plants that have the desired trait and physiological and morphological characteristics of sunflower inbred line OID687R to produce selected backcross progeny plants;
- and
- (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) three 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 sunflower inbred line OID687R listed in Table 1.
