Abstract
According to the invention, there is provided seed and plants of the hybrid corn variety designated CH374777. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of the variety CH374777, and to methods for producing a corn plant produced by crossing a corn plant of variety CH374777 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 CH374777.
Claims27
A seed of the hybrid corn variety CH374777, produced by crossing a first plant of variety CV215542 with a second plant of variety CV805067, wherein representative seed of said varieties CV215542 and CV805067 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-11311 and PTA-10422, respectively.
A method of producing hybrid corn seed comprising crossing a plant of variety CV215542 with a plant of variety CV805067, wherein representative seed of variety CV215542 and variety CV805067 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-11311 and PTA-10421, respectively.
A method of introducing a heritable trait into hybrid corn variety CH374777 comprising the steps of:
- (a) introducing at least a first heritable trait into at least one inbred corn variety selected from the group consisting of variety CV215542 and variety CV805067 to produce a plant of the first inbred corn variety that heritably carries the trait, wherein the heritable trait is introduced into said first inbred corn variety by backcrossing and wherein representative samples of seed of variety CV215542 and variety CV805067 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-11311 and PTA-10422, respectively;
- and
- (b) crossing a plant of the first inbred corn variety that heritably carries the trait with a plant of a different variety selected from said group consisting of CV215542 and CV805067 to produce a plant of hybrid corn variety CH374777 comprising the heritable trait.
A method of introducing a trait into hybrid corn variety CH374777 comprising the steps of:
- (a) introducing a transgene conferring the trait into a variety selected from the group consisting of CV215542 and CV805067 to produce a transgenic plant heritably carrying the trait, wherein representative samples of seed of variety CV215542 and variety CV805067 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-11311 and PTA-10422, respectively;
- and
- (b) crossing the transgenic plant or an isogenic progeny plant thereof with a plant of a different variety selected from the group consisting of CV215542 and CV805067 to produce a plant of the hybrid corn variety CH374777 that comprises the trait.
