Abstract: The present invention relates to carrot lines having roots containing increased levels of lycopene, as well as containers of such carrots. The present invention also relates to parts of carrot plants from lines having roots with increased lycopene content, including seeds capable of growing carrot plants with increased root lycopene content. The invention also provides seed and plants of the carrot lines designated RN 71-4904C, RF 71-4911A, RF 71-4912A, RIF 71-4966C, RIF 71-4967B, or RIF 71-4968B. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of carrot line RN 71-4904C, RF 71-4911A, RF 71-4912A, RIF 71-4966C, RIF 71-4967B, or RIF 71-4968B, and to methods for producing a carrot plant produced by crossing a plant of carrot line RN 71-4904C, RF 71-4911A, RF 71-4912A, RIF 71-4966C, RIF 71-4967B, or RIF 71-4968B with itself or with another carrot plant, such as a plant of another line. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing.

Abstract: An inbred carrot line, designated S-D813B, is disclosed. The invention relates to the seeds of inbred carrot line S-D813B, to the plants of inbred carrot line S-D813B and to methods for producing a carrot plant, either inbred or hybrid, by crossing the inbred line S-D813B with itself or another carrot line. The invention further relates to methods for producing a carrot plant containing in its genetic material one or more transgenes and to the transgenic plants produced by that method and to methods for producing other inbred carrot lines derived from the inbred S-D813B.
