Abstract

The present invention relates to a Solanum lycopersicum seed designated 72-MP0027 RZ. The present invention also relates to a Solanum lycopersicum plant produced by growing the 72-MP0027 RZ seed. The invention further relates to methods for producing the tomato cultivar, represented by tomato variety 72-MP0027 RZ.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ) plant of hybrid variety 72-MP0027 RZ, representative seed of which having been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 43920.

2 . The plant as claimed in claim 1 , which is grown from seed having been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 43920.

3 . A seed of the plant of claim 1 .

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

5 . A tomato plant having all the physiological and morphological characteristics of the tomato plant of claim 1 or 2 , or a part thereof.

6 . A tissue culture of regenerable cells or protoplasts from the plant part of claim 5 .

7 . The tissue culture as claimed in claim 6 , wherein said cells or protoplasts of the tissue culture are derived from a microspore, an ovary, an ovule, an embryo sac, an egg cell, a cutting, 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.

8 . A tomato plant regenerated from the tissue culture of claim 6 , wherein the regenerated plant expresses all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of hybrid tomato variety 72-MP0027 RZ, a sample of seed of said hybrid having been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 43920.

9 . A method of vegetatively propagating a plant of hybrid tomato variety 72-MP0027 RZ comprising the steps of: (a) collecting tissue capable of being propagated from a plant of hybrid tomato variety 72-MP0027 RZ, representative seed which having been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 43920; and (b) producing a rooted plant from said tissue.

10 . A method for producing a progeny plant of a tomato ( 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.

11 . A progeny of a tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ) plant of claim 1 , having all the morphological and physiological characteristics of the hybrid tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ) plant of claim 1 , representative seed of which hybrid tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ) plant having been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 43920.

12 . The progeny as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the progeny is further modified in one or more other characteristics.

13 . The progeny as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the modification is effected by mutagenesis.

14 . The progeny as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the modification is effected by transformation with a transgene.

15 . A method for producing a seed of a 72-MP0027 RZ-derived tomato plant comprising (a) crossing a plant of tomato variety 72-MP0027 RZ, representative seed of which having been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. NCIMB 43920, with itself or with a second tomato plant, and (b) whereby seed of a 72-MP0027 RZ-derived tomato plant forms.

16 . The method of claim 15 further comprising (c) crossing a plant grown from 72-MP0027 RZ-derived tomato seed with itself or with a second tomato plant to yield additional 72-MP0027 RZ-derived tomato seed, (d) growing the additional 72-MP0027 RZ-derived tomato seed of step (c) to yield an additional 72-MP0027 RZ-derived tomato plant, and (e) repeating the crossing and growing of steps (c) and (d) for an additional 3-10 generations to generate a further 72-MP0027 RZ-derived tomato plant, and (f) allowing seed of the further 72-MP0027 RZ-derived tomato plant to form.

17 . A method of producing a plant of hybrid tomato variety 72-MP0027 RZ comprising at least one new trait, the method comprising introducing a mutation or transgene conferring the at least one new trait into a plant of hybrid tomato variety 72-MP0027 RZ, representative seed of which having been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. 43920.

18 . The tomato plant produced by the method of claim 17 .

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

20 . The method of claim 19 further comprising processing the harvested tomato fruit as a processed food product.

21 . A fruit produced by the method of claim 19 , optionally in processed form.

22 . A method of determining the genotype of a plant of tomato variety 72-MP0027 RZ, representative seed of which has been deposited under NCIMB Accession No. NCIMB 43920, or a first generation progeny thereof, comprising obtaining a sample of nucleic acids from said plant and comparing said nucleic acids to a sample of nucleic acids obtained from a reference plant, and detecting a plurality of polymorphisms between the two nucleic acid samples, wherein the plurality of polymorphisms are indicative of tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ) variety 72-MP0027 RZ and/or give rise to the expression of any one or more, or all, of the morphological and physiological characteristics of tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ) variety 72-MP0027 RZ as claimed in claim 1 .

23 . The method of claim 22 additionally comprising the step of storing the results of detecting the plurality of polymorphisms on a computer readable medium, or transmitting the results of detecting the plurality of polymorphisms.
