## Abstract

According to the invention, there is provided seed and plants of the hybrid corn variety designated CH715413. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of the variety CH715413, and to methods for producing a corn plant produced by crossing a corn plant of variety CH715413 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 CH715413.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A seed of the hybrid corn variety CH715413, produced by crossing a first plant of variety CV914011 with a second plant of variety CV646435, wherein representative seed of said varieties CV914011 and CV646435 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-10346 and PTA-10243, respectively.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

A plant of the hybrid corn variety CH715413 grown from the seed of claim 1.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

A plant part of the plant of claim 2.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The plant part of claim 3, further defined as an ear, ovule, pollen or cell.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

A composition comprising the seed of claim 1 comprised in plant seed growth media.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The composition of claim 5, wherein the growth media is soil or a synthetic cultivation medium.

### Claim 7

A seed produced by crossing
(a) a plant produced by introducing a transgene into a plant of variety CV914011, or a selfed progeny thereof, with a plant of variety CV646435,
(b) a plant produced by introducing a transgene into a plant of variety CV646435, or a selfed progeny thereof, with a plant of variety CV914011, or
(c) a plant produced by introducing a transgene into a plant of variety CV646435, or a selfed progeny thereof, with a plant produced by introducing a transgene into a plant of variety CV914011, or a selfed progeny thereof,
wherein representative seed of said varieties CV914011 and CV646435 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-10346 and PTA-10243, respectively, and wherein the transgene is inherited by the seed.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The seed of claim 7, wherein the transgene confers a trait selected from the group consisting of male sterility, herbicide tolerance, insect resistance, disease resistance, waxy starch, modified fatty acid metabolism, modified phytic acid metabolism, modified carbohydrate metabolism and modified protein metabolism.

### Claim 9

A method of producing hybrid corn seed comprising crossing a plant of variety CV914011 with a plant of variety CV646435, wherein representative seed of variety CV914011 and variety CV646435 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-10346 and PTA-10243, respectively.

### Claim 10

A seed of the hybrid corn variety CH715413 comprising at least a first single locus conversion, produced by crossing a first plant of variety CV914011 with a second plant of variety CV646435, wherein representative seed of said varieties CV914011 and CV646435 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-10346 and PTA-10243, respectively, and wherein one or both of the first plant and second plant comprises the single locus conversion.

### Claim 11 (depends on 10)

The seed of claim 10, wherein the single locus conversion confers a trait selected from the group consisting of male sterility, herbicide tolerance, insect resistance, disease resistance, waxy starch, modified fatty acid metabolism, modified phytic acid metabolism, modified carbohydrate metabolism and modified protein metabolism.

### Claim 12 (depends on 10)

A plant grown from the seed of claim 10.

### Claim 13

A method of introducing a heritable trait into hybrid corn variety CH715413 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 CV914011 and variety CV646435 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 CV914011 and variety CV646435 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-10346 and PTA-10243, 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 CV914011 and CV646435 to produce a plant of hybrid corn variety CH715413 comprising the heritable trait.

### Claim 14 (depends on 13)

The method of claim 13, wherein the trait is selected from the group consisting of male sterility, herbicide tolerance, insect resistance, disease resistance, waxy starch, modified fatty acid metabolism, modified phytic acid metabolism, modified carbohydrate metabolism and modified protein metabolism.

### Claim 15 (depends on 14)

The method of claim 14, further comprising repeating step (a) at least once to introduce at least a second heritable trait into hybrid corn variety CH715413, wherein the second heritable trait is selected from the group consisting of male sterility, herbicide tolerance, insect resistance, disease resistance, waxy starch, modified fatty acid metabolism, modified phytic acid metabolism, modified carbohydrate metabolism and modified protein metabolism.

### Claim 16 (depends on 13)

A plant produced by the method of claim 13.

### Claim 17 (depends on 2)

A method of producing a corn plant derived from the hybrid corn variety CH715413, wherein the method comprises crossing the plant of claim 2 with a second corn plant to produce a progeny corn plant derived from the hybrid corn variety CH715413.

### Claim 18 (depends on 17)

The method of claim 17, further comprising the steps of:
(a) crossing the progeny corn plant derived from the hybrid corn variety CH715413 with itself or a second plant to produce a seed of a progeny plant of a subsequent generation;
(b) growing a progeny plant of a subsequent generation from the seed and crossing the progeny plant of a subsequent generation with itself or a second plant; and
(c) repeating steps (a) and (b) for at least an additional 3-10 generations to produce a corn plant further derived from the hybrid corn variety CH715413.

### Claim 19 (depends on 18)

The method of claim 18, further comprising the step of:
(d) crossing the corn plant further derived from the hybrid corn variety CH715413 with a second, distinct corn plant.

### Claim 20 (depends on 2)
