The invention provides seed and plants of the lettuce lines SVLD9011, SVLD9012, SVLD9013, and SVLD9014. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds, and tissue cultures of lettuce lines SVLD9011, SVLD9012, SVLD9013, and SVLD9014, and to methods for producing a lettuce plant produced by crossing a plant of lettuce line SVLD9011, lettuce line SVLD9012, lettuce line SVLD9013, or lettuce line SVLD9014 with itself or with another lettuce plant, such as a plant of another genotype. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing. The invention further relates to parts of a plant of lettuce lines SVLD9011, SVLD9012, SVLD9013, and SVLD9014, including the gametes of such plants.

A method is provided of producing a Lactuca plant seed including using a Megachile bee as pollination means, and providing the a Megachile bee a minor nectar plant to have preference in flower visiting, in addition to a pollen parent Lactuca plant and a seed parent Lactuca plant and to perform a crossing of a Lactuca plant using a plant species having the preference in flower visiting equivalent to or lower than that of the Lactuca plant. According to one embodiment, it is possible to produce a Lactuca hybrid plant seed more efficiently and economically than before while using a Megachile bee as pollination means.
