Abstract
According to the invention, there is provided seed and plants of the hybrid corn variety designated CH602914. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of the variety CH602914, and to methods for producing a corn plant produced by crossing a corn plant of variety CH602914 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 CH602914.
Claims26
A seed of the hybrid corn variety CH602914, produced by crossing a first plant of variety CV427371 with a second plant of variety I208993, wherein representative seed of said varieties CV427371 and I208993 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-10047 and PTA-8724, respectively.
A method of producing hybrid corn seed comprising crossing a plant of variety CV427371 with a plant of variety 1208993, wherein representative seed of variety CV427371 and variety 1208993 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-110047 and PTA-18724, respectively.
A method of introducing a heritable trait into hybrid corn variety CH602914 comprising the steps of:
- (a) crossing a first plant of a first inbred corn variety selected from the group consisting of variety CV427371 and variety I208993 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 CV427371 and variety I208993 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-110047 and PTA-18724, respectively;
- (b) selecting progeny plants that heritably carry the trait;
- (c) crossing selected progeny plants with another plant of the selected 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 selected 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 selected first 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 CV427371 and 1208993 to produce a plant comprising the trait and essentially all of the characteristics of hybrid corn variety CH602914 when grown under the same environmental conditions.
A method of introducing a desired trait into hybrid corn variety CH602914 comprising the steps of:
- (a) introducing a transgene conferring the trait into a variety selected from the group consisting of CV427371 and I208993 to produce a transgenic plant heritably carrying the trait, wherein representative samples of seed of variety CV427371 and variety I208993 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-10047 and PTA-8724, 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 CH602914 that heritably carries and expresses the transgene and otherwise has essentially all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of hybrid corn variety CH602914 when grown under the same environmental conditions.
