Abstract

According to the invention, there is provided seed and plants of the corn variety designated I119135. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of the variety I119135, and to methods for producing a corn plant produced by crossing a corn plant of variety I119135 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 I119135 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 I119135.

Claims

1-22. -22. (canceled)

23. A hybrid corn seed having a male parent and a female parent, wherein the male and female parents each comprise a diploid genome having a plurality of paired chromosomes comprising a plurality of mappable genetic loci with a pair of alleles at each locus;

the hybrid corn seed also comprising a diploid genome having a plurality of paired chromosomes comprising a plurality of mappable genetic loci with a pair of alleles at each locus, one of the alleles being contributed by the male parent and the other being contributed by the female parent, wherein one of the parents is a plant of the corn variety I119135, a sample of the seed of said corn variety I119135 having been deposited under ATCC Accession No._______, and wherein the other parent is a plant of a different variety;

whereby one allele at each locus in the hybrid genome consists essentially of the allele found at the same locus in corn variety I119135, and further whereby the other allele in a plurality of such loci in the hybrid genome is different from the allele found at the same locus in corn variety I119135.

24. A corn plant grown from the seed of claim 23.

25. The hybrid corn seed of claim 23, wherein the plant of corn variety I119135 is further defined as comprising a transgene introduced by genetic transformation.

26. The hybrid corn seed of claim 25, wherein the transgene confers a trait selected from the group consisting of herbicide tolerance;

insect resistance;

resistance to bacterial, fungal, nematode or viral disease;

waxy starch;

improved nutritional quality;

male sterility and restoration of male fertility.

27. The hybrid corn seed of claim 23, wherein the plant of corn variety I119135 is further defined as comprising conversion to express at least one new trait, wherein the conversion was produced by a method comprising the steps of:

(a) crossing a first corn plant having a first diploid genome comprising a plurality of paired chromosomes comprising a plurality of mappable genetic loci with a pair of alleles at each locus, and further comprising a genetic locus that confers at least one new trait, with a second plant of the corn variety I119135, a sample of the seed of the corn variety I119135 having been deposited under ATCC Accession No.______, the plant of the corn variety I119135 having a second diploid genome comprising a plurality of paired chromosomes comprising a plurality of mappable genetic loci with a pair of alleles at each locus, to produce seed comprising a diploid genome having a plurality of paired chromosomes comprising a plurality of mappable genetic loci with a pair of alleles at each locus, wherein one of the alleles is contributed by the first corn plant and the other is contributed by the plant of the corn variety I119135, said genome further comprising the genetic locus that confers the new trait;

(b) harvesting and planting the seed thereby produced to produce at least one progeny plant of the first filial generation, said progeny plant comprising a diploid genome comprising the genetic locus;

(c) crossing said progeny plant with a plant of the corn variety I119135 to produce seed of a subsequent filial generation, the seed comprising a diploid genome having a plurality of paired chromosomes comprising a plurality of mappable genetic loci with a pair of alleles at each locus, wherein one of the alleles is contributed by the progeny plant and the other is contributed by the plant of the corn variety I119135, and further comprising the genetic locus that confers the new trait;

(d) growing at least one progeny plant of the subsequent filial generation from the seed produced in step (c), said progeny plant comprising a genome comprising the genetic locus that confers the new trait;

(e) repeating steps (c) and (d) for at least one additional generation to produce a converted plant of the corn variety I119135 wherein the plant comprises a diploid genome having a plurality of paired chromosomes comprising a plurality of mappable genetic loci with a pair of alleles at each locus, wherein both alleles at substantially all of the loci consist essentially of the allele found at the same locus in corn variety I119135, the genome further comprising the genetic locus that confers the new trait; and

(f) harvesting the seed of the converted plant.

28. The hybrid corn seed of claim 27, wherein the genetic locus was stably inserted into a corn genome by genetic transformation.

29. The hybrid corn seed of claim 27, wherein the genetic locus is selected from the group consisting of a dominant allele and a recessive allele.

30. The hybrid corn seed of claim 27, wherein the new trait is selected from the group consisting of herbicide tolerance;

insect resistance;

resistance to bacterial, fungal, nematode or viral disease;

waxy starch;

improved nutritional quality;

male sterility and restoration of male fertility.

31. A corn plant grown from the seed of claim 25.

32. A corn plant grown from the seed of claim 27.
