A maize variety 33W82, produced by crossing a first plant of variety GE24211947 with a second plant of variety GE38672251, wherein representative seed of said varieties GE24211947 and GE38672251 have been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-11429 and PTA-11426, respectively.

A process of producing a conversion of maize variety 33W82 comprising at least one new trait, the process comprising:

(a) crossing a first maize inbred variety parent plant selected from the group consisting of variety GE24211947 and variety GE38672251, representative seed of which have been deposited under ATCC Accession Number(s) as PTA-11429 and PTA-11426 respectively, with plants of another maize variety that comprise at least one new trait to produce F1 seed;
(b) harvesting and planting the F1 seed to produce at least one progeny plant of the F1 generation, said progeny plant comprising the at least one new trait;
(c) crossing the at least one progeny plant with said maize inbred variety parent plant to produce backcross progeny seed;
(d) harvesting and planting the backcross progeny seed to produce at least one backcross progeny plant, said backcross progeny plant comprising the at least one new trait;
(e) repeating steps (c) and (d) for at least three additional generations to produce at least a first progeny plant, wherein said first progeny plant comprises the at least one new trait;
(f) crossing the progeny plant of step (e) with a plant of the other maize inbred variety of the group consisting of variety GE24211947 and variety GE38672251 to produce a seed that produces a converted plant of variety 33W82, wherein the converted plant of variety 33W82 comprises the at least one new trait.
