Abstract

According to the invention, there is provided seed and plants of the corn variety designated CV679573. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of the variety CV679573, and to methods for producing a corn plant produced by crossing a corn plant of variety CV679573 with itself or with another corn plant, such as a plant of another variety. The invention further relates to corn seeds and plants produced by crossing plants of variety CV679573 with plants of another variety, such as another inbred line. The invention further relates to the inbred and hybrid genetic complements of plants of variety CV679573.

Claims

1. A plant of corn variety CV679573, wherein representative seeds of corn variety CV679573 have been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-25234.

2. A plant part of the plant of claim 1.

3. The plant part of claim 2, further defined as pollen, an ovule, or a cell.

8. An F₁ hybrid seed produced by crossing a plant according to claim 1 with a second, distinct corn plant.

9. The F₁ hybrid seed of claim 8, wherein said plant of corn variety CV679573 further comprises a transgene that is inherited by the seed, wherein said transgene was introduced into corn variety CV679573 by backcrossing or genetic transformation.

10. An F₁ hybrid plant grown from the seed of claim 8.

16. A method of producing a progeny corn plant derived from corn variety CV679573, said method comprising applying plant breeding techniques to the plant of claim 1 or an F₁ hybrid thereof to yield said progeny corn plant.

17. The method of claim 16, wherein said plant breeding techniques comprise backcrossing, marker assisted breeding, pedigree breeding, selfing, outcrossing, haploid production, doubled haploid production, or transformation.

18. The method of claim 16, further defined as comprising:

(a) crossing the plant of corn variety CV679573 or an F₁ hybrid thereof with itself or a different plant to produce a seed of a progeny plant of a subsequent generation;

(b) growing the progeny plant of the subsequent generation from the seed of the progeny plant of the subsequent generation; and

(c) repeating steps (a) and (b) with sufficient inbreeding to produce an inbred corn plant derived from corn variety CV679573.

19. A method of producing a commodity plant product, said method comprising obtaining the plant of claim 10 and producing said commodity plant product therefrom.

20. The method of claim 19, wherein said commodity plant product is grain, starch, seed oil, corn syrup, or protein.

4. A seed of corn variety CV679573, wherein representative seeds of corn variety CV679573 have been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-25234.

5. The seed of claim 4, further comprising a transgene, wherein said transgene was introduced into corn variety CV679573 by backcrossing or genetic transformation.

6. A composition comprising the seed of claim 4 comprised in plant seed growth media.

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

11. A plant of corn variety CV679573 further comprising a single locus conversion, wherein representative seeds of corn variety CV679573 have been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-25234, and wherein said plant otherwise comprises all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of corn variety CV679573.

12. The plant of claim 11, wherein the single locus conversion comprises a transgene.

13. A seed that produces the plant of claim 11.

14. The seed of claim 13, wherein the single locus conversion comprises a nucleic acid sequence that enables site-specific genetic recombination or confers a trait selected from the group consisting of male sterility, herbicide tolerance, insect or pest resistance, disease resistance, modified fatty acid metabolism, abiotic stress resistance, altered seed amino acid composition, and modified carbohydrate metabolism.

15. The seed of claim 14, wherein said single locus conversion that confers herbicide tolerance confers tolerance to benzonitrile herbicides, cyclohexanedione herbicides, imidazolinone herbicides, phenoxy herbicides, sulfonylurea herbicides, triazine herbicides, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid synthase-inhibiting herbicides, 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase-inhibiting herbicides, acetolactate synthase-inhibiting herbicides, protoporphyrinogen oxidase-inhibiting herbicides, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, bromoxynil, dicamba, glufosinate, glyphosate, nicosulfuron, or quizalofop-p-ethyl.
