Abstract

According to the invention, there is provided seed and plants of the hybrid corn variety designated CH601447. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of the variety CH601447, and to methods for producing a corn plant produced by crossing a corn plant of variety CH601447 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 CH601447.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A seed of hybrid corn variety CH601447, produced by crossing a first plant of variety CV705149 with a second plant of variety CV871614, wherein representative seed of said varieties CV705149 and CV871614 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-121228 and PTA-123820, respectively.

2. A plant of the hybrid corn variety CH601447 grown from the seed of claim 1 .

3. A plant part of the plant of claim 2 .

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

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

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

7. The seed of claim 1 , further comprising at least a first transgene.

8. 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.

9. A method of producing the seed of claim 1 , the method comprising crossing a plant of variety CV705149 with a plant of variety CV871614, wherein representative seed of variety CV705149 and variety CV871614 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-121228 and PTA-123820, respectively.

10. A seed of hybrid corn variety CH601447 further comprising a first single locus conversion, wherein said seed is produced by crossing a first plant of variety CV705149 with a second plant of variety CV871614, wherein representative seed of said varieties CV705149 and CV871614 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-121228 and PTA-123820, respectively, and wherein one or both of the first plant and second plant further comprises the single locus conversion, and wherein a plant grown from said seed comprises a trait conferred by said first single locus conversion.

11. 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.

12. A plant grown from the seed of claim 10 .

13. A method of introducing a heritable trait into hybrid corn variety CH601447, the method comprising the steps of:
(a) introducing at least the heritable trait into at least a first inbred corn variety selected from the group consisting of variety CV705149 and variety CV871614 to produce a plant of the first inbred corn variety that heritably carries the heritable trait, wherein the heritable trait is introduced into said first inbred corn variety by backcrossing and wherein representative seed of variety CV705149 and variety CV871614 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-121228 and PTA-123820, respectively; and
(b) crossing the plant of the first inbred corn variety that heritably carries the heritable trait with a plant of a different variety selected from said group consisting of CV705149 and CV871614 to produce a plant of said hybrid corn variety CH601447 further comprising the heritable trait.

14. 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.

15. The method of claim 13 , further comprising repeating step (a) at least once to introduce a second heritable trait into hybrid corn variety CH601447, 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.

16. A plant produced by the method of claim 13 , wherein said plant comprises the heritable trait and otherwise comprises all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of corn variety CH601447.

17. A method of producing a progeny corn plant derived from the hybrid corn variety CH601447, wherein the method comprises applying plant breeding techniques to the plant of claim 2 .

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the plant breeding techniques comprise backcrossing, marker assisted breeding, pedigree breeding, selfing, outcrossing, haploid production, doubled haploid production, or transformation.

19. The method of claim 17 , further comprising the steps of:
(a) crossing said progeny corn plant 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 said seed of a progeny plant of a subsequent generation 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 CH601447.

20. A method of producing a commodity plant product, the method comprising obtaining the plant of claim 2 or a part thereof and producing said commodity plant product therefrom.

21. The method of claim 20 , wherein the commodity plant product is grain, starch, seed oil, corn syrup or protein.
