A novel maize variety designated X13P461 and seed, plants and plant parts thereof are produced by crossing inbred maize varieties. Methods for producing a maize plant by crossing hybrid maize variety X13P461 with another maize plant are disclosed. Methods for producing a maize plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into X13P461 through backcrossing or genetic transformation, and to the maize seed, plant and plant part produced thereby are described. Maize variety X13P461, the seed, the plant produced from the seed, and variants, mutants, and minor modifications of maize variety X13P461 are provided. Methods for producing maize varieties derived from maize variety X13P461 and methods of using maize variety X13P461 are disclosed.
A seed of hybrid maize variety X13P461, representative seed produced by crossing a first plant of variety PH41F0 with a second plant of variety PH47SK, wherein representative seed of the varieties PH41F0 and PH47SK have been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-124792 and NCMA Accession Number 202004009, respectively.
A seed of hybrid maize variety X13P461 further comprising a single locus conversion, wherein a plant grown from the seed comprises a trait conferred by the single locus conversion, and wherein the seed is produced by crossing a first plant of variety PH41F0 with a second plant of variety PH47SK, wherein the first plant, the second plant or both further comprise the single locus conversion, and wherein representative seed of the varieties PH41F0 and PH47SK have been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-124792 and NCMA Accession Number 202004009, respectively.
A method for producing a hybrid maize variety X13P461 seed further comprising a locus conversion, the method comprising crossing a first plant of variety PH41F0 with a second plant of variety PH47SK, representative seed of the varieties PH41F0 and PH47SK having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-124792 and NCMA Accession Number 202004009, respectively, wherein at least one of the varieties PH41F0 and PH47SK further comprises the locus conversion.

The goal of hybrid development is to combine, in a single hybrid, various desirable traits. For field crops, these traits may include resistance to diseases and insects, resistance to heat and drought, reducing the time to crop maturity, greater yield, and better agronomic quality. With mechanical harvesting of many crops, uniformity of plant characteristics such as germination, stand establishment, growth rate, maturity, and plant and ear height is important. Traditional plant breeding is an important tool in developing new and improved commercial crops.
Provided is a novel maize, Zea mays L., variety, seed, plant, cells and its parts designated as X13P461, produced by crossing two maize inbred varieties. The hybrid maize variety X13P461, the seed, the plant and its parts produced from the seed, and variants, mutants and minor modifications of maize X13P461 are provided. Processes are provided for making a maize plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into X13P461 through locus conversion, backcrossing and/or transformation, and to the maize seed, plant and plant parts produced thereby. Methods for producing maize varieties derived from hybrid maize variety X13P461 are also provided. Also provided are maize plants having all the physiological and morphological characteristics of the hybrid maize variety X13P461.
The hybrid maize plant may further comprise a cytoplasmic or nuclear factor capable of conferring male sterility or otherwise preventing self-pollination, such as by self-incompatibility. Parts of the maize plants disclosed herein are also provided, for example, pollen obtained from a hybrid plant and an ovule of the hybrid plant. Seed of the hybrid maize variety X13P461 is provided and may be provided as a population of maize seed of the variety designated X13P461.
A new and distinctive maize hybrid variety designated X13P461, which has been the result of years of careful breeding and selection in a comprehensive maize breeding program is provided.
Maize, Zea mays L., can be referred to as maize or corn. Certain definitions used in the specification are provided below. Also in the examples that follow, a number of terms are used herein. In order to provide a clear and consistent understanding of the specification and claims, including the scope to be given such terms, the following definitions are provided. NOTE: ABS is in absolute terms and % MN is percent of the mean for the experiments in which the inbred or hybrid was grown. PCT designates that the trait is calculated as a percentage. % NOT designates the percentage of plants that did not exhibit a trait. For example, STKLDG % NOT is the percentage of plants in a plot that were not stalk lodged. These designators will follow the descriptors to denote how the values are to be interpreted. Below are the descriptors used in the data tables included herein.
BRITTLE STALK: A count of the number of “snapped” plants per plot following machine snapping or artificial selection pressure. A snapped plant has its stalk completely snapped at a node between the base of the plant and the node above the ear. Can be expressed as percent of plants that did not snap.
