Abstract
According to the invention, there is provided an inbred corn plant designated FAR614 and its anthocyanins extract. This invention relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of the inbred corn plant FAR614, and to methods for producing a corn plant produced by crossing the inbred corn plant FAR614 with itself or with another corn plant, such as another inbred. This invention further relates to corn seeds and plants produced by crossing the inbred plant FAR614 with another corn plant, such as another inbred, and to crosses with related species. This invention further relates to the inbred and hybrid genetic complements of the inbred corn plant FAR614, and also to the SSR and genetic isozyme typing profiles of inbred corn plant FAR614.
Claims25
A seed of a corn cultivar designated FAR614, representative seed of said cultivar deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-121874.
A method of introducing a desired trait into corn cultivar FAR614 wherein the method comprises:
- crossing FAR614 plants grown from FAR614 seed, representative seed of which has been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-121874, with plants of another corn line that comprise a desired trait to produce progeny plants, wherein the desired trait is selected from the group consisting of male sterility, herbicide resistance, insect resistance and disease resistance;
- selecting progeny plants that have the desired trait to produce selected progeny plants;
- crossing the selected progeny plants with the FAR614 plants to produce backcross progeny plants;
- selecting for backcross progeny plants that have the desired trait and physiological and morphological characteristics of corn cultivar FAR614 to produce selected backcross progeny plants;
- and repeating said crossing and selecting for backcross progeny plants steps at least three times in succession, or, when using molecular markers, repeating said crossing and selecting at least once and selfing said backcross progeny plants at least once, to produce respective selected fourth or higher backcross progeny plants or second-selfed backcross progeny plants that comprise the desired trait and physiological and morphological characteristics of corn cultivar FAR614.
A corn plant according to anyone of the preceding claims having anthocyanin amounts in any of its parts higher than 1 mg per gram of raw material.
An anthocyanin extract from the plant obtained according to anyone of the preceding claims.
