Plants and seeds of hybrid corn variety ch024276

A seed of hybrid corn variety CH024276 comprising at least a first single locus conversion, produced by crossing a first plant of variety CV454023 with a second plant of variety CV197629, wherein representative seed of said varieties CV454023 and CV197629 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-121225 and PTA-120299, respectively, and wherein one or both of the first plant and second plant comprises the single locus conversion, and wherein a plant grown from said seed comprises a trait conferred by said at least a first single locus conversion and otherwise comprises essentially all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of hybrid corn variety CH024276.

A method of introducing a heritable trait into hybrid corn variety CH024276 comprising the steps of:

• (a) introducing at least a first heritable trait into at least one inbred corn variety selected from the group consisting of variety CV454023 and variety CV197629 to produce a plant of the first inbred corn variety that heritably carries the trait, wherein the heritable trait is introduced into said first inbred corn variety by backcrossing and wherein representative samples of seed of variety CV454023 and variety CV197629 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-121225 and PTA-120299, respectively;
• and
• (b) crossing a plant of the first inbred corn variety that heritably carries the trait with a plant of a different variety selected from said group consisting of CV454023 and CV197629 to produce a plant of hybrid corn variety CH024276 comprising the heritable trait.
