(a) crossing a plant of line BRM 51-1162 or BRL 51-1128, a sample of seed of said lines having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-9675, and ATCC Accession Number PTA-9674, respectively, with a second broccoli plant that comprises a locus conferring a desired trait to produce F1 progeny;

(b) selecting an F1 progeny that comprises the locus and desired trait;

(c) crossing the selected F1 progeny with a plant of line BRM 51-1162 or BRL 51-1128 to produce backcross progeny;

(d) selecting backcross progeny comprising the desired trait and the physiological and morphological characteristic of broccoli line BRM 51-1162 or BRL 51-1128; and

(e) repeating steps (c) and (d) three or more times to produce selected fourth or higher backcross progeny that comprise the locus and desired trait.

17. A broccoli plant produced by the method of claim 16, wherein said plant comprises the desired trait and otherwise comprises essentially all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of the recurrent parent broccoli line BRM 51-1162 or BRL 51-1128.

18. A method of producing a plant comprising an added desired trait, the method comprising introducing a transgene conferring the desired trait into a plant of hybrid PS05151639, line BRM 51-1162 or line BRL 51-1128, a sample of seed of said hybrid and lines having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-9676, ATCC Accession Number PTA-9675, and ATCC Accession Number PTA-9674, respectively.

19. A method for producing a seed of a plant derived from at least one of hybrid PS05151639, line BRM 51-1162 or line BRL 51-1128 comprising the steps of:
