Abstract
The invention provides seed and plants of cucumber hybrid SV8975CB and the parent lines thereof. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of cucumber hybrid SV8975CB and the parent lines thereof, and to methods for producing a cucumber plant produced by crossing such plants with themselves or with another cucumber 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 of such plants, including the fruit and gametes of such plants.
Claims33
A cucumber plant comprising at least a first set of the chromosomes of cucumber line BAP-TA-MATHYS-GY, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-120467.
A seed comprising at least a first set of the chromosomes of cucumber line BAP-TA-MATHYS-GY, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-120467.
A method of introducing a desired trait into a cucumber line comprising:
- (a) crossing a plant of line BAP-TA-MATHYS-GY with a second cucumber plant that comprises a desired trait to produce F1 progeny, a sample of seed of said line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-120467;
- (b) selecting an F1 progeny that comprises the desired trait;
- (c) backcrossing the selected F1 progeny with a plant of line BAP-TA-MATHYS-GY to produce backcross progeny;
- (d) selecting backcross progeny comprising the desired trait and the physiological and morphological characteristic of cucumber line BAP-TA-MATHYS-GY;
- and
- (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) three or more times to produce selected fourth or higher backcross progeny that comprise the desired trait.
A method of producing a cucumber plant comprising an added trait, the method comprising introducing a transgene conferring the trait into a plant of cucumber hybrid SV8975CB, or cucumber line BAP-TA-MATHYS-GY, a sample of seed of said hybrid and line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-120466, and ATCC Accession Number PTA-120467, respectively.
A method for producing a seed of a cucumber plant derived from at least one of cucumber hybrid SV8975CB, or cucumber line BAP-TA-MATHYS-GY comprising the steps of:
- (a) crossing a cucumber plant of hybrid SV8975CB, or line BAP-TA-MATHYS-GY with itself or a second cucumber plant;
- a sample of seed of said hybrid and line having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-120466, and ATCC Accession Number PTA-120467, respectively;
- and
- (b) allowing seed of a hybrid SV8975CB, or line BAP-TA-MATHYS-GY-derived cucumber plant to form.
