Abstract

A potato cultivar designated Y9 is disclosed. The invention relates to the tubers of potato cultivar Y9, to the seeds of potato cultivar Y9, to the plants of potato cultivar Y9, to the plant parts of potato cultivar Y9, to food products produced from potato cultivar Y9, and to methods for producing a potato plant produced by crossing potato cultivar Y9 with itself or with another potato variety. The invention also relates to methods for producing a potato plant containing in its genetic material one or more transgenes and to the transgenic potato plants and plant parts produced by those methods. This invention also relates to potato cultivars or breeding cultivars and plant parts derived from potato variety Y9, to methods for producing other potato cultivars, lines or plant parts derived from potato cultivar Y9 and to the potato plants, varieties, and their parts derived from use of those methods. The invention further relates to hybrid potato tubers, seeds, plants and plant parts produced by crossing potato cultivar Y9 with another potato cultivar.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A potato tuber, or a part of a tuber, of potato cultivar Y9, wherein a representative sample of said tuber was deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-122247.

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

3. A potato plant having all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of the plant of claim 2 , and comprising the insert region of pSIM1278 that is present in cultivar Y9 which contains inverted repeats of potato DNA effective for inhibition of expression of the endogenous asparagine synthetase-1 gene and the endogenous polyphenol oxidase-5 gene in addition to inverted repeats of the endogenous potato promoters for the phosphorylase-L and dikinase R1 genes and further comprising the insert region of pSIM1678 that is present in Y9 which contains the potato late blight resistance gene Rpi-vnt1 and inverted repeats of potato DNA effective for inhibition of expression of the endogenous vacuolar invertase gene VInv.

4. A tissue culture of cells produced from the plant of claim 2 , wherein said cells of the tissue culture are produced from a plant part selected from the group consisting of leaf, pollen, embryo, cotyledon, hypocotyl, meristematic cell, root, root tip, pistil, anther, flowers, stem and tuber, and wherein said tissue cultured cells comprise the insert region of pSIM1278 that is present in cultivar Y9 which contains inverted repeats of potato DNA effective for inhibition of expression of the endogenous asparagine synthetase-1 gene and the endogenous polyphenol oxidase-5 gene in addition to inverted repeats of the endogenous potato promoters for the phosphorylase-L and dikinase R1 genes and further comprising the insert region of pSIM1678 that is present in Y9 which contains the potato late blight resistance gene Rpi-vnt1 and inverted repeats of potato DNA effective for inhibition of expression of the endogenous vacuolar invertase gene VInv.

5. A potato plant regenerated from the tissue culture of claim 4 , wherein said plant has all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of potato cultivar Y9.

6. A potato seed produced by growing the potato tuber, or a part of the tuber, of claim 1 , wherein said seed comprises the insert region of pSIM1278 that is present in cultivar Y9 which contains inverted repeats of potato DNA effective for inhibition of expression of the endogenous asparagine synthetase-1 gene and the endogenous polyphenol oxidase-5 gene in addition to inverted repeats of the endogenous potato promoters for the phosphorylase-L and dikinase R1 genes and further comprising the insert region of pSIM1678 that is present in Y9 which contains the potato late blight resistance gene Rpi-vnt1 and inverted repeats of potato DNA effective for inhibition of expression of the endogenous vacuolar invertase gene VInv.

7. A potato plant, or a part thereof, produced by growing the seed of claim 6 .

8. A potato plant regenerated from tissue culture of the potato plant of claim 7 , wherein said regenerated plant comprises the insert region of pSIM1278 that is present in cultivar Y9 which contains inverted repeats of potato DNA effective for inhibition of expression of the endogenous asparagine synthetase-1 gene and the endogenous polyphenol oxidase-5 gene in addition to inverted repeats of the endogenous potato promoters for the phosphorylase-L and dikinase R1 genes and further comprising the insert region of pSIM1678 that is present in Y9 which contains the potato late blight resistance gene Rpi-vnt1 and inverted repeats of potato DNA effective for inhibition of expression of the endogenous vacuolar invertase gene VInv.

9. A method for producing a potato seed, said method comprising crossing two potato plants and harvesting the resultant potato seed, wherein at least one potato plant is the potato plant of claim 2 .

10. A method for producing a potato seed, said method comprising crossing two potato plants and harvesting the resultant potato seed, wherein at least one potato plant is the potato plant of claim 7 .

11. A potato seed produced by the method of claim 10 , wherein said seed comprises the insert region of pSIM1278 that is present in cultivar Y9 which contains inverted repeats of potato DNA effective for inhibition of expression of the endogenous asparagine synthetase-1 gene and the endogenous polyphenol oxidase-5 gene in addition to inverted repeats of the endogenous potato promoters for the phosphorylase-L and dikinase R1 genes and further comprising the insert region of pSIM1678 that is present in Y9 which contains the potato late blight resistance gene Rpi-vnt1 and inverted repeats of potato DNA effective for inhibition of expression of the endogenous vacuolar invertase gene VInv.

12. A potato plant, or a part thereof, produced by growing said potato seed of claim 11 .

13. A potato seed produced from the plant of claim 12 , wherein said seed comprises the insert region of pSIM1278 that is present in cultivar Y9 which contains inverted repeats of potato DNA effective for inhibition of expression of the endogenous asparagine synthetase-1 gene and the endogenous polyphenol oxidase-5 gene in addition to inverted repeats of the endogenous potato promoters for the phosphorylase-L and dikinase R1 genes and further comprising the insert region of pSIM1678 that is present in Y9 which contains the potato late blight resistance gene Rpi-vnt1 and inverted repeats of potato DNA effective for inhibition of expression of the endogenous vacuolar invertase gene VInv.

14. The method of claim 9 , wherein one of said potato plants is potato cultivar Y9 and the second potato plant is transgenic.

15. A method of producing a potato seed, said method comprising crossing two potato plants and harvesting the resultant potato seed, wherein one of said potato plants is the potato plant of claim 7 and the second potato plant is transgenic.

16. A potato plant, or a part thereof, produced by growing the seed produced by the method of claim 14 , wherein said plant comprises the insert region of pSIM1278 that is present in cultivar Y9 which contains inverted repeats of potato DNA effective for inhibition of expression of the endogenous asparagine synthetase-1 gene and the endogenous polyphenol oxidase-5 gene in addition to inverted repeats of the endogenous potato promoters for the phosphorylase-L and dikinase R1 genes and further comprising the insert region of pSIM1678 that is present in Y9 which contains the potato late blight resistance gene Rpi-vnt1 and inverted repeats of potato DNA effective for inhibition of expression of the endogenous vacuolar invertase gene VInv.
