NOVELTY - A plant cell (C1) of canola plant of variety SCV816796 (ATCC PTA-120375) having all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of the canola variety SCV816796, is new.    USE - The cells (C1)-(C5) are useful for producing (a) cleaned seeds for subsequent plantation and producing industrial product chosen from protein concentrate, protein isolate, grain, canola hulls, meal, flour, oil, crushed canola product, canola meal, livestock feed, unblended canola oil, salad oil, cooking oil, frying oil, vegetable oil, blended oil, and biofuel, and (b) plants with traits chosen from herbicide tolerance, insect resistance, pest resistance, disease resistance, modified fatty acid metabolism, abiotic stress resistance, altered seed amino acid composition, site specific genetic recombination, modified carbohydrate metabolism, male sterility, modified seed yield, modified oil percent, modified protein percent, modified lodging resistance, and resistance to bacterial disease, fungal disease, or viral disease (all claimed). The plant cells are also useful for producing edible protein product, vegetable oil product and other food products for both humans and animals.    ADVANTAGE - The plant cells rapidly produce seed having excellent homozygosity, homogeneity, phenotypic stability and agronomic characteristics including uniformity and stability even after several generations.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are included for the following:    (1) tissue culture of cells (C1);    (2) cell (C2) of canola seed produced by crossing a plant of canola variety SCV816796 with itself or by crossing the plant of canola variety SCV816796 with second, distinct canola plant to produce an F1 hybrid canola seed;    (3) cell (C3) of canola plant produced by growing a seed produced by crossing plant of canola variety SCV816796 with itself or growing a seed produced by crossing the plant of canola variety SCV816796 with a second, distinct canola plant to produce an F1 hybrid canola seed;    (4) method (M1) of transforming a canola plant of variety SCV816796 with transgene that confers herbicide tolerance, insect resistance, pest resistance, disease resistance, modified fatty acid metabolism, abiotic stress resistance, altered seed amino acid composition, site specific genetic recombination, or modified carbohydrate metabolism;    (5) plant cell (C4) of canola plant produced by the method (M1);    (6) industrial product produced from seed of the canola variety SCV816796;    (7) method (M2) for producing an industrial product, involves producing the industrial plant product from seeds of a plant of canola variety SCV816796;    (8) method (M3) of producing a plant (P1) comprising a single locus version, involves introducing a single locus conversion into the canola variety SCV816796, where the single locus conversion is introduced into canola variety SCV816796 by backcrossing or genetic transformation;    (9) plant cell (C5) of a canola plant produced by the method (M3);    (10) use of the canola variety SCV816796 to produce cleaned seed for subsequent planting, to breed canola plant, to cross with another canola plant, to grow crop and to produce genetic marker profile, as recipient of single locus conversion and transgene, and for oil or protein production;    (11) use of a descendant of the canola variety SCV816796, where the descendant expresses physiological and morphological characteristics of canola variety SCV816796 provided in table 1 of patent specification, to breed canola plant, to cross with another canola plant, to grow crop and to produce genetic marker profile, as recipient of single locus conversion and transgene, and for oil or protein production; and    (12) crushed non-viable canola seed from the canola variety SCV816796.
