Abstract
Hybrids and derived cultivars of the rice cultivar designated ‘CL151’ are disclosed. The invention relates to hybrid rice seeds and plants produced by crossing the cultivar ‘CL151’ with another rice cultivar. The invention further relates to other derivatives of the rice cultivar ‘CL151.’
Claims32
A method for producing hybrid rice seed;
- said method comprising crossing a first parent rice plant with a second parent rice plant, and harvesting the resulting hybrid rice seed;
- wherein either the first parent rice plant, or the second parent rice plant, but not both parents, is a rice plant of the variety ‘CL151’;
- wherein a representative sample of rice seed of the variety ‘CL151’ has been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-9597;
- and wherein, if the hybrid rice seed is grown, then the resulting hybrid rice plants will express the imidazolinone herbicide resistance characteristics of ‘CL151.’
A method of producing a rice plant with multiple sources of herbicide resistance;
- said method comprising transforming a rice plant of the variety ‘CL151’ with a transgene that confers herbicide resistance, in addition to the herbicide resistance that is inherent in ‘CL151’ rice;
- wherein a representative sample of rice seed of the variety ‘CL151’ has been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-9597.
A method of producing an insect resistant rice plant, said method comprising transforming a rice plant of the variety ‘CL151’ with a transgene that confers insect resistance;
- wherein a representative sample of rice seed of the variety ‘CL151’ has been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-9597.
A method of producing a disease resistant rice plant, said method comprising transforming a rice plant of the variety ‘CL151’ with a transgene that confers disease resistance;
- wherein a representative sample of rice seed of the variety ‘CL151’ has been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-9597.
A method of producing a rice plant with modified fatty acid or modified carbohydrate metabolism, said method comprising transforming a rice plant of the variety ‘CL151’ with at least one transgene encoding a protein selected from the group consisting of fructosyltransferase, levansucrase, alpha-amylase, invertase, and starch-branching enzyme;
- or encoding an antisense sequence to stearyl-ACP desaturase;
- wherein a representative sample of rice seed of the variety ‘CL151’ has been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-9597.
A method of introducing a desired trait into rice cultivar ‘CL151’, said method comprising the steps of:
- (a) crossing rice cultivar ‘CL151’ with plants of another rice line expressing the desired trait, to produce progeny plants;
- wherein a representative sample of rice seed of the variety ‘CL151’ has been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-9597;
- (b) selecting progeny plants that express the desired trait, to produce selected progeny plants;
- (c) crossing the selected progeny plants with ‘CL151’ plants to produce new progeny plants;
- (d) selecting new progeny plants that express both the desired trait and some or all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of rice cultivar ‘CL151,’ to produce new selected progeny plants;
- and
- (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) three or more times in succession, to produce selected higher generation backcross progeny plants that express both the desired trait and essentially all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of rice cultivar ‘CL151,’ as described in the VARIETY DESCRIPTION INFORMATION of the specification, determined at a 5% significance level, when grown in the same environmental conditions;
- and wherein the selected plants express the imidazolinone herbicide resistance characteristics of ‘CL151.’
