Abstract

A novel maize variety designated X18H535 and seed, plants and plant parts thereof are produced by crossing inbred maize varieties. Methods for producing a maize plant by crossing hybrid maize variety X18H535 with another maize plant are disclosed. Methods for producing a maize plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into X18H535 through backcross conversion and/or transformation, and to the maize seed, plant and plant part produced thereby. This invention relates to the maize variety X18H535, the seed, the plant produced from the seed, and variants, mutants, and minor modifications of maize variety X18H535. This invention further relates to methods for producing maize varieties derived from maize variety X18H535.

Claims

1. A seed of hybrid maize variety X18H535 produced by crossing a first plant of variety PH240M with a second plant of variety PH1T92, wherein representative seed of the varieties PH240M and PH1T92 have been deposited under ATCC Accession Numbers PTA-123726 and PTA-122697, respectively.

2. A plant of hybrid maize variety X18H535 grown from the seed of claim 1.

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

4. A method of producing the seed of claim 1, the method comprising crossing a plant of variety PH240M with a plant of variety PH1T92, wherein representative seed of varieties PH240M and PH1T92 have been deposited under ATCC Accession numbers PTA-123726 and PTA-122697, respectively.

5. A seed of hybrid maize variety X18H535 further comprising a single locus conversion, representative seed of hybrid maize variety X18H535 produced by crossing a first plant of variety PH240M with a second plant of variety PH1T92, wherein representative seed of the varieties PH240M and PH1T92 have been deposited under ATCC Accession Numbers PTA-123726 and PTA-122697, respectively.

6. The seed of claim 5, wherein the transgene confers a property 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.

7. The hybrid maize variety X18H535 seed of claim 5, further comprising a seed treatment on the surface of the seed.

8. A method for producing nucleic acids, the method comprising isolating nucleic acids from the hybrid maize variety X18H535 seed of claim 5.

9. A plant grown from the seed of claim 5.

10. A method for producing a second maize plant, the method comprising applying plant breeding techniques to the plant of claim 9 to produce the second maize plant.

11. A method for producing a second maize plant, the method comprising doubling haploid seed generated from a cross of the maize plant of claim 9 with an inducer maize variety, thereby producing the second maize plant or plant part.

12. An F1 hybrid maize variety X18H535 seed comprising at least a first locus conversion and fewer than six locus conversions, the seed further comprising the locus conversion being produced by crossing a first plant of variety PH240M with a second plant of variety PH1T92;

representative seed of the varieties PH240M and PH1T92 having been deposited under ATCC Accession Numbers PTA-123726 and PTA-122697, respectively;

wherein at least one of the varieties PH240M and PH1T92 further comprises a locus conversion and wherein the seed produces a plant having otherwise the same phenotypic characteristics as maize variety X18H535 when grown under the same environmental conditions and when evaluated at the 5% significance level.

13. The seed further comprising the locus conversion of claim 12, further comprising a seed treatment on the surface of the seed.

14. The seed of claim 12 further comprising the locus conversion, wherein the locus conversion confers a property 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. A method for producing nucleic acids, the method comprising isolating nucleic acids from the seed of claim 12.

16. A plant, plant part, or plant cell produced by growing the seed of claim 12, the plant, plant part or plant cell comprising at least one F1 hybrid maize variety X18H535 cell.

17. A method for producing nucleic acids, the method comprising isolating nucleic acids from the plant, plant part, or plant cell of claim 16.

18. A method of producing a commodity plant product comprising starch, syrup, silage, fat or protein, the method comprising producing the commodity plant product from the plant or plant part of claim 16.

19. A method for producing a second maize plant, the method comprising applying plant breeding techniques to the plant or plant part of claim 16 to produce the second maize plant.

20. A method for producing a second maize plant, the method comprising doubling haploid seed generated from a cross of the maize plant or plant part of claim 16 with a different maize plant.
