Abstract

According to the invention, there are provided novel canola cultivars, seeds of canola cultivars, to the plants, or plant parts, of novel canola cultivars and to methods for producing a canola plants produced by crossing the novel canola cultivars with themselves or another canola cultivar, and the creation of variants by mutagenesis or transformation of the canola cultivars. The novel canola cultivar(s) include canola plants having a desired trait that includes an oleic acid value of about 70% and a yield greater than about 2100 kg/ha, and oils canola seeds having an oleic acid content of greater than about 70% and an α-linolenic acid value of less than about 3%.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An elite canola inbred plant having a mutant fad2 gene and a mutant fad3 gene and is stabilized for seed oil having an oleic acid content of greater than 70% and a yield greater than 2100 kg/ha, and wherein the plant otherwise comprises all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of canola cultivar CL31613, G31064, DN040244A, DN040845A, or G030994.

2. An elite canola inbred plant having a mutant fad2 gene and a mutant fad3 gene and is stabilized for seed oil having an oleic acid content of greater than 70% and a yield greater than 2100 kg/ha and further comprising an α-linolenic acid value of less than 3% or produces a meal with a glucosinolate content of less than 12 μmol/gram of meal, and wherein the plant otherwise comprises all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of canola cultivar CL31613, G31064, DN040244A, DN040845A, or G030994.

3. An elite canola inbred plant having a mutant fad2 gene and a mutant fad3 gene and is stabilized for seed oil having an oleic acid content of greater than 70% and a yield greater than 2100 kg/ha and further comprising resistance to Blackleg, Fusarium wilt, or White Rust, and wherein the plant otherwise comprises all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of canola cultivar CL31613, G31064, DN040244A, DN040845A, or G030994.

4. An elite canola inbred plant having a mutant fad2 gene and a mutant fad3 gene and is stabilized for seed oil having an oleic acid content of greater than 70% and a yield greater than 2100 kg/ha and herbicide resistance to an herbicide selected from the group consisting of imidazolinone, sulfonylurea, glyphosate, glufosinate, L-phosphinothricin, triazine, Dicamba, 2,4-D, and benzonitrile, and wherein the plant otherwise comprises all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of canola cultivar CL31613, G31064, DN040244A, DN040845A, or G030994.

5. A method for obtaining canola seed, the method comprising:
harvesting a seed of the elite canola inbred plant of claim 1 .

6. A method for obtaining canola seed, the method comprising: harvesting a seed of the elite canola inbred plant of claim 2 .

7. A method for obtaining canola seed, the method comprising: harvesting a seed of the elite canola inbred plant of claim 3 .

8. A method for obtaining canola seed, the method comprising: harvesting a seed of the elite canola inbred plant of claim 4 .
