        (ii)   is clearly distinguishable from any plant variety that was a
               matter of common knowledge at the time of the grant of PBR in
               the initial variety; and

   (b)  any other plant variety that cannot be reproduced except by the
        repeated use of the initial variety or of a variety referred to in
        paragraph (a); whether or not that other plant variety was in
        existence at the time PBR was granted in the initial variety.
