Abstract
Novel maize varieties that produce kernels with high levels of carotene and an aerial root mucilage, including the maize variety designated GenetecOne, and seed, plants and plant parts thereof are provided. Methods for producing a maize plant comprising crossing maize variety GenetecOne with another maize plant are provided. Methods for producing a maize plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into GenetecOne through backcross conversion and/or transformation, and to the maize seed, plant and plant part produced thereby are provided.
Claims27
A maize variety designated GenetecOne, wherein representative seeds of maize variety GenetecOne have been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-127251.
A seed of maize variety GenetecOne, wherein representative seeds of maize variety GenetecOne have been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-127251.
A plant of maize variety GenetecOne further comprising a single locus conversion, wherein representative seeds of maize variety GenetecOne have been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-127251 and wherein the plant otherwise comprises all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of maize variety GenetecOne when grown under the same environmental conditions.
A maize variety capable of producing aerial roots that secrete mucilage, wherein the variety is an F1 progeny of the maize variety GenetecOne, wherein representative seeds of maize variety GenetecOne have been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-127251.
A method for introducing one or more desired traits into a progeny plant, the method comprising:
- (a) crossing a plant of maize variety GenetecOne with another maize plant, wherein representative seeds of maize variety GenetecOne have been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-127251;
- (b) harvesting the resultant seed;
- (c) growing said seed to produce a progeny plant;
- and
- (d) selecting a progeny plant having the one or more desired traits, wherein said one or more desired traits are the capability to produce aerial roots that secrete mucilage.
