Abstract
According to the invention, there is provided seed and plants of the hybrid corn variety designated CH244754. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of the variety CH244754, and to methods for producing a corn plant produced by crossing a corn plant of variety CH244754 with itself or with another corn plant, such as a plant of another variety. The invention further relates to genetic complements of plants of variety CH244754.
Claims26
A seed of the hybrid corn variety CH244754, produced by crossing a first plant of variety I006605 with a second plant of variety I283669, wherein representative seed of said varieties I006605 and I283669 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-7920 and PTA-8569, respectively.
A seed of the hybrid corn variety CH244754, produced by crossing a first plant of variety I006605 with a second plant of variety I283669, wherein representative seed of said varieties I006605 and I283669 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-7920 and PTA-8569, respectively, wherein one or both of the first and second plants further comprises a transgene.
A seed of the hybrid corn variety CH244754, produced by crossing a first plant of variety I006605 with a second plant of variety I283669, wherein representative seed of said varieties I006605 and I283669 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-7920 and PTA-8569, respectively, wherein one or both of the first and second plants comprises a single locus conversion.
A method of producing hybrid corn seed comprising crossing a plant of variety I006605 with a plant of variety I283669, wherein representative seed of variety I006605 and variety I283669 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA -7920 and PTA-8569, respectively.
A method of introducing a heritable trait into hybrid corn variety CH244754 comprising the steps of:
- (a) crossing a first plant of a first inbred corn variety selected from the group consisting of variety I006605 and variety I283669 with another corn plant that heritably carries the trait to produce progeny plants, at least some of which heritably carry the trait, wherein representative samples of seed of variety I006605 and variety I283669 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-7920 and PTA-8569, respectively;
- (b) selecting progeny plants that heritably carry the trait;
- (c) crossing selected progeny plants with another plant of the first inbred corn variety to produce next-generation progeny plants at least some of which heritably carry the trait;
- (d) selecting next-generation progeny plants that heritably carry the trait and exhibit morphological and physiological characteristics of the first inbred corn variety;
- (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) three or more times to produce at least a first selected progeny plant that heritably carries the trait and exhibits essentially all of the morphological and physical characteristics of the inbred corn variety;
- and
- (f) crossing a progeny plant of step (e) with a plant of the other inbred corn variety of the group consisting of I006605 and I283669 to produce a plant comprising the trait and essentially all of the characteristics of hybrid corn variety CH244754 when grown under the same environmental conditions.
A method of introducing a desired trait into hybrid corn variety CH244754 comprising the steps of:
- (a) introducing a transgene conferring the trait into a variety selected from the group consisting of I006605 and I283669 to produce a transgenic plant heritably carrying the trait, wherein representative samples of seed of variety I006605 and variety I283669 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-8569 and PTA-7920, respectively;
- and
- (b) crossing the transgenic plant or an isogenic progeny plant thereof with a plant of the other inbred corn variety to produce seed of the hybrid corn variety CH244754 that heritably carries and expresses the transgene and otherwise has essentially all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of hybrid corn variety CH244754 when grown under the same environmental conditions.
