Abstract

The present invention relates to a Solanum lycopersicum seed designated 72-014 RZ. The present invention also relates to a Solanum lycopersicum plant produced by growing the 72-014 RZ seed. The invention further relates to methods for producing the tomato cultivar, represented by tomato variety 72-014 RZ.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A Solanum lycopersicum plant designated 72-014 RZ, representative seed of which having been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 43550.

2. The plant as claimed in claim 1 , which is grown from seed having been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 43550.

3. A seed of the plant of claim 1 .

4. A seed which produces the plant of claim 1 .

5. A part of the plant of claim 1 , wherein said part of the plant is involved in sexual reproduction.

6. The part of the plant as claimed in claim 5 , wherein said part comprises a microspore, pollen, an ovary, an ovule, an embryo sac, or an egg cell.

7. A part of the plant of claim 1 , wherein said part of the plant is involved in vegetative reproduction.

8. The part as claimed in claim 7 , said part comprises a cutting, a root, a stem, a cell, or a protoplast.

9. A tissue culture of regenerable cells from the tomato plant of claim 1 .

10. The cell or protoplast of claim 8 obtained from a leaf, pollen, an embryo, a cotyledon, a hypocotyl, a meristematic cell, a root, a root tip, an anther, a flower, a seed, or a stem.

11. A method for producing a progeny plant of the Solanum lycopersicum plant of claim 1 , comprising
crossing the plant of claim 1 with itself or with another Solanum lycopersicum plant,
harvesting the resultant seed, and
growing said seed.

12. A progeny plant of the Solanum lycopersicum plant of claim 1 ,
wherein said progeny plant has genetic material for exhibiting all of the morphological and physiological characteristics as found in tomato variety 72-014 RZ; and
wherein the genetic information is as contained in the plant which is deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 43550.

13. A progeny of the Solanum lycopersicum plant of claim 1 , having all the morphological and physiological characteristics of the Solanum lycopersicum plant of claim 1 , representative seed of which having been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 43550.

14. A method of producing an inbred Solanum lycopersicum plant derived from hybrid Solanum lycopersicum variety 72-014 RZ, comprising the steps:
a) preparing a progeny plant derived from hybrid Solanum lycopersicum variety 72-014 RZ by crossing the plant of claim 1 with itself;
b) crossing the progeny plant with itself to produce a seed of a progeny plant of a subsequent generation;
c) growing the progeny plant of the subsequent generation from said seed and crossing the progeny plant of a subsequent generation with itself; and
d) repeating step b) or c) for at least 3 more generations to produce an inbred Solanum lycopersicum plant derived from the hybrid Solanum lycopersicum variety 72-014 RZ.

15. A method of producing a tomato fruit comprising:
(a) obtaining the plant according to claim 1 or 2 , wherein the plant has been cultivated to develop fruit; and
(b) collecting a tomato fruit from the plant.

16. A fruit produced by the method of claim 15 .

17. The fruit of claim 16 , wherein the fruit is part of a food product, optionally in processed form.

18. A method for producing a seed of a 72-014 RZ-derived tomato plant comprising
(a) crossing a plant of tomato variety 72-014 RZ, representative seed of which having been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 43550, with itself or a second tomato plant, and
(b) allowing the development of a seed of a 72-014 RZ-derived tomato plant.

19. The method of claim 18 further comprising
(c) crossing a plant grown from 72-014 RZ-derived tomato seed with itself or with a second tomato plant to yield additional 72-014 RZ-derived tomato seed,
(d) growing the additional 72-014 RZ-derived tomato seed of step (c) to yield additional 72-014 RZ-derived tomato plants, and
(e) repeating the crossing and growing of steps (c) and (d) for an additional 3-10 generations to generate further 72-014 RZ-derived tomato plants.
