Abstract

An edible bean seed designated as <11278> or COWBOY, a sample of the edible bean deposited under accession no. PI 678951 is disclosed. Methods of using the edible bean seed designated as <11278> or COWBOY for breeding new varieties of bean seed are also disclosed, as well as seeds of the edible bean seed designated as <11278> or COWBOY.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An edible bean seed designated as COWBOY, a sample of the edible bean seed deposited under accession no. PI 678951.

2. A plant produced by growing the edible bean seed of claim 1 .

3. Pollen of the plant of claim 2 .

4. An edible bean plant having all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of the edible bean plant of claim 2 .

5. A tissue culture of regenerable cells of the edible bean plant of claim 2 .

6. The tissue culture of claim 5 , wherein the cells are obtained from a plant part selected from the group consisting of leaf, pollen, embryo, meristematic cell, root, root tip, anther, stomatal cell, flower, seed, stem, pod and combinations of any thereof.

7. An edible bean plant regenerated from the tissue culture of claim 6 , having all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of an edible bean plant grown from an edible bean seed designated as COWBOY, a sample of the edible bean seed deposited under accession no. PI 678951.

8. A method for producing an edible bean seed comprising crossing two edible bean plants and harvesting the resulting edible bean seed, wherein at least one of the two edible bean plants is the edible bean plant of claim 2 .

9. A method for producing a hybrid edible bean seed comprising crossing the edible bean plant of claim 2 with a second edible bean plant and harvesting the resulting hybrid edible bean seed.

10. A plurality of the edible bean seeds of claim 1 .

11. A method of planting a field, comprising planting the plurality of the edible bean seeds of claim 10 in the field.

12. A process for producing edible beans for consumption, comprising processing the plurality of the edible bean seeds of claim 10 such that the plurality of the edible bean seeds are suitable for consumption.

13. A method for producing an edible bean seed designated as a COWBOY-derived edible bean seed, comprising:
crossing a plant of edible bean seed designated as COWBOY, a sample of the seed deposited under accession number PI 678951, with a second edible bean plant to yield progeny edible bean seed; and
growing the progeny edible bean seed to yield COWBOY-derived edible bean plants and allowing seed of COWBOY-derived edible beans plants to form.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the second edible bean plant is transgenic.

15. An A edible bean designated as COWBOY-derived edible bean seed produced by a method comprising:
crossing a plant of edible bean seed designated as COWBOY, a sample of the seed deposited under accession number PI 678951, with a second edible bean plant to yield progeny edible bean seed.
