ABSTRACT:
Heat tolerant broccoli plants and seed produced therefrom are described. The heat tolerant broccoli plants are capable of producing a commercially acceptable broccoli head under heat stress growth conditions. The heat tolerant broccoli plants are exemplified by seeds deposited with the American Type Culture Collection and having ATCC Accession numbers: 203530, 203531, 203532, and 203533.
