Abstract
The present invention provides an inbred corn line designated BDAX4608, methods for producing a corn plant by crossing plants of the inbred line BDAX4608 with plants of another corn plant. The invention further encompasses all parts of inbred corn line BDAX4608, including culturable cells. Additionally provided herein are methods for introducing transgenes into inbred corn line BDAX4608, and plants produced according to these methods.
Claims20
A seed of maize variety BDAX4608, wherein representative seed of said maize variety BDAX4608 has been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-______.
A plant of maize variety BDAX4608, wherein representative seed of said maize variety BDAX4608 has been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-______.
A converted seed, plant, plant part or plant cell of maize variety BDAX4608, representative seed of the maize variety BDAX4608 having been deposited under ATCC accession number PTA-______, wherein the converted seed, plant, plant part or plant cell comprises a locus conversion, and wherein the plant or a plant grown from the converted seed, plant part or plant cell comprises the locus conversion and otherwise comprises the phenotypic characteristics of maize variety BDAX4608 listed in Table 1 when grown under the same environmental conditions.
A process of introducing an additional trait into maize plant BDAX4608 comprising:
- (a) crossing BDAX4608 plants grown from BDAX4608 seeds, representative seeds deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-______, with plants of another maize variety that comprise an additional trait to produce hybrid progeny plants,
- (b) selecting hybrid progeny plants that have the additional trait to produce selected hybrid progeny plants;
- (c) crossing the selected progeny plants with the BDAX4608 plants to produce backcross progeny plants;
- (d) selecting for backcross progeny plants that have the additional trait to produce selected backcross progeny plants;
- and (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) at least three or more times to produce backcross progeny plants that comprise the additional trait and all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of maize inbred plant BDAX4608 when grown in the same environmental conditions.
