Abstract
A novel inbred maize variety designated PHGJB and seed, plants and plant parts thereof. Methods for producing a maize plant that comprise crossing inbred maize variety PHGJB with another maize plant. Methods for producing a maize plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into PHGJB through backcross conversion and/or transformation, and to the maize seed, plant and plant part produced thereby. Hybrid maize seed, plant or plant part produced by crossing the inbred variety PHGJB or a trait conversion of PHGJB with another maize variety. Inbred maize varieties derived from inbred maize variety PHGJB, methods for producing other inbred maize varieties derived from inbred maize variety PHGJB and the inbred maize varieties and their parts derived by the use of those methods.
Claims21
Maize inbred variety PHGJB, representative seed of said variety having been deposited under ATCC accession number PTA-7535.
A process of producing a conversion of maize inbred variety PHGJB comprising at least one new trait, the process comprising:
- (a) crossing a plant of maize inbred variety PHGJB, representative seed of which has been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-7535, with a plant of another maize variety that comprises at least one new trait to produce progeny seed;
- (b) harvesting and planting the progeny seed to produce at least one progeny plant of a subsequent generation, said progeny plant comprising the at least one new trait;
- (c) crossing the progeny plant with a plant of maize inbred variety PHGJB to produce backcross progeny seed;
- (d) harvesting and planting the backcross progeny seed to produce at least one backcross progeny plant;
- and
- (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) for at least three additional generations to produce a converted plant of inbred variety PHGJB, wherein the converted plant of inbred variety PHGJB comprises the at least one new trait and otherwise has all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of inbred variety PHGJB listed in Table 1 as determined at the 5% significance level when grown under the same environmental conditions.
