Plants and seeds of hybrid corn variety CH384087

A seed of the hybrid corn variety CH384087 further comprising at least a first single locus conversion, produced by crossing a first plant of variety I180421 with a second plant of variety CV597869, wherein representative seed of said varieties I180421 and CV597869 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-7863 and PTA-10885, respectively, and wherein one or both of the first plant and second plant comprises the single locus conversion, and wherein a plant grown from said seed comprises a trait conferred by said at least a first single locus conversion and otherwise comprises essentially all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of hybrid corn variety CH384087.

A method of introducing a heritable trait into a hybrid corn variety 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 I180421 and variety CV597869 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 I180421 and variety CV597869 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-7863 and PTA-10885, 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 I180421 and CV597869 to produce a plant of hybrid corn variety CH384087 comprising the heritable trait.
