Abstract

The present invention relates to a new and distinctive canola, designated I2X0066A/B. Also included are seeds of canola I2X0066A/B, to the plants, or plant parts, of canola I2X0066A/B and to methods for producing a canola plant produced by crossing the canola I2X0066A/B with itself or another canola genotype, and the creation of variants by mutagenesis or transformation of canola I2X0066A/B.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A seed of canola designated I2X0066A/B, wherein a representative sample of seed of said cultivar was deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA 122146.

2. A canola plant, or a part thereof, produced by growing the seed of claim 1 .

3. A method of introducing a desired trait into canola I2X0066A/B, wherein the method comprises: (a) crossing a I2X0066A/B plant, wherein a representative sample of seed was deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA 122146, with a plant of another canola cultivar that comprises a desired trait to produce F 1 progeny plants, wherein the desired trait is selected from the group consisting of herbicide resistance, insect resistance, and resistance to bacterial disease, fungal disease or viral disease; (b) selecting one or more progeny plants that have the desired trait to produce selected progeny plants; (c) crossing the selected progeny plants with the I2X0066A/B plants to produce backcross progeny plants; (d) selecting for backcross progeny plants that have the desired trait and physiological and morphological characteristics of canola I2X0066A/B to produce selected backcross progeny plants; and (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) three or more times to produce selected fourth or higher backcross progeny plants that comprise the desired trait and an oleic acid value of about 70% and an α-linolenic acid value of less than about 3% based on a percentage of total fatty acids.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the progeny plants further comprise a yield greater than about 2100 kg/ha, a protein value of greater than 44%, or a glucosinolate value of less than 12% based on a percentage of dry matter.

5. The method of claim 3 , wherein the progeny plants comprise resistance to Blackleg ( Leptosphaeria maculans ), Fusarium wilt, or White Rust.

6. The method of claim 3 , wherein the progeny plants comprise herbicide resistance to an herbicide selected from the group consisting of imidazolinone, sulfonylurea, glyphosate, glufosinate, L-phosphinothricin, triazine, Clearfield, Dicamaba, 2,4-D, and benzonitrile.

7. The method of claim 3 , wherein the progeny plants comprise all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of canola I2X0066A/B as shown in Tables 1, 2 and 3.

8. A canola plant comprising all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of canola I2X0066A/B, and further comprises a desired trait, produced by the method of claim 3 , wherein the plant has the desired trait and comprises an oleic acid value of about 70% and an α-linolenic acid value of less than about 3% based on a percentage of total fatty acids.

9. The canola plant of claim 8 , wherein the desired trait comprises herbicide resistance and the resistance is conferred to an herbicide selected from the group consisting of imidazolinone, sulfonylurea, glyphosate, glufosinate, L-phosphinothricin, triazine, Clearfield, Dicamaba, 2,4-D, and benzonitrile.

10. The canola plant of claim 8 , wherein the desired trait comprises insect resistance and the insect resistance is conferred by a transgene encoding a Bacillus thuringiensis endotoxin.

11. The canola plant of claim 8 , wherein the desired trait comprises resistance to Blackleg, Fusarium wilt, or White Rust.

12. The canola plant of claim 8 , wherein the plant comprises all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of canola I2X0066A/B, as shown in Tables 1, 2, and 3.

13. A method of modifying fatty acid metabolism or modifying carbohydrate metabolism of canola I2X0066A/B wherein the method comprises: (a) crossing a I2X0066A/B plant, wherein a representative sample of seed was deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA 122146, with a plant of another canola cultivar to produce F 1 progeny plants that comprise a nucleic acid molecule encoding an enzyme selected from the group consisting of phytase, fructosyltransferase, levansucrase, alpha-amylase, invertase and starch branching enzyme or encoding an antisense of stearyl-ACP desaturase; (b) selecting one or more progeny plants that have said nucleic acid molecule to produce selected progeny plants; (c) crossing the selected progeny plants with the I2X0066A/B plants to produce backcross progeny plants; (d) selecting for backcross progeny plants that have said nucleic acid molecule and physiological and morphological characteristics of canola I2X0066A/B to produce selected backcross progeny plants; and (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) three or more times to produce selected fourth or higher backcross progeny plants that comprise said nucleic acid molecule and have an oleic acid value of about 70% and an α-linolenic acid value of less than about 3% based on a percentage of total fatty acids.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the progeny plants further comprise a yield greater than about 2100 kg/ha, a protein value of greater than 44%, or a glucosinolate value of less than 12% based on a percentage of dry matter.

15. The method of claim 13 , wherein the progeny plants comprise resistance to Blackleg ( Leptosphaeria maculans ), Fusarium wilt, or White Rust.

16. The method of claim 13 , wherein the progeny plants comprise herbicide resistance to an herbicide selected from the group consisting of imidazolinone, sulfonylurea, glyphosate, glufosinate, L-phosphinothricin, triazine, Clearfield, Dicamaba, 2,4-D, and benzonitrile.

17. The method of claim 13 , wherein the progeny plants comprise all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of canola I2X0066A/B as shown in Tables 1, 2 and 3.

18. A canola plant comprising all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of canola I2X0066A/B, and further comprises a desired trait, produced by the method of claim 13 , wherein the plant comprises the nucleic acid molecule and has an oleic acid value of about 70% and an α-linolenic acid value of less than about 3% based on a percentage of total fatty acids.

19. A canola plant comprising all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of canola I2X0066A/B, and further comprises a desired trait, produced by the method of claim 13 , wherein the plants further comprise a yield greater than about 2100 kg/ha, a protein value of greater than 44%, or a glucosinolate value of less than 12% based on a percentage of dry matter.

20. A canola plant produced by the method of claim 13 , wherein the plants comprise all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of canola I2X0066A/B as shown in Tables 1, 2 and 3.
