Inbred corn line G0502

Abstract

Broadly this invention provides an invention which is inbred corn line G0502. The methods for producing a corn plant by crossing the inbred line G0502 are also encompassed by the invention. Additionally, the invention relates to the various parts of inbred G0502 including culturable cells. This invention relates to hybrid corn seeds and plants produced by crossing the inbred line G0502 with at least one other corn line.

1 . Inbred corn seed designated G0502, seed of that has been deposited in the ATCC accession number X.  
   
   
       2 . A corn plant produced by the seed of  claim 1 .  
   
   
       3 . A tissue culture of regenerable cells of G0502 of  claim 1  wherein the cells of the tissue culture regenerates plants capable of expressing the all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of G0502.  
   
   
       4 . A tissue culture according to  claim 3 , the tissue culture selected from the group consisting of leaves, pollen, embryos, roots, root tips, meristem, ovule anthers, silk, flowers, kernels, ears, cobs, husks and stalks, and cells and protoplasts thereof.  
   
   
       5 . A corn plant capable of expressing all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of G0502 regenerated from the cells of the tissue culture of  claim 3 .  
   
   
       6 . Hybrid seed produced by the method comprising the following steps: 
 (a) planting, in pollinating proximity, seeds of corn inbred lines G0502 which has been deposited in the ATCC accession number X and another inbred line, one of said inbred lines not releasing pollen;    (b) cultivating corn plants resulting from said planting;    (c) allowing cross pollination to occur between said inbred lines; and    (d) harvesting seeds produced on the non-pollen releasing inbred.    
   
   
       7 . Hybrid seed produced by the method comprising a hybrid combination of plants of inbred corn seed designated G0502 in  claim 1  and plants of another inbred line.  
   
   
       8 . Hybrid plants grown from seed of  claim 7 .  
   
   
       9 . A first generation (F1) hybrid corn plant produced by using G0502 which has been deposited in the ATCC accession number X the process of: 
 (a) planting, in pollinating proximity, seeds of corn inbred lines G0502 and another inbred line;    (b) cultivating corn plants resulting from said planting;    (c) preventing pollen production by the plants of one of the inbred lines;    (d) allowing natural cross-pollination to occur between said inbred lines;    (e) harvesting seeds produced on plants of the inbred line of step (c); and    (f) growing a harvested seed of step (e).    
   
   
       10 . A tissue culture of the regenerable cells of the corn plant of  claim 8 .  
   
   
       11 . A tissue culture of the regenerable cells of the corn plant of  claim 9 .  
   
   
       12 . A plant according to  claim 2 , including in the plant at least one transgenic gene.  
   
   
       13 . A seed according to  claim 1 , including at least one transgenic gene.  
   
   
       14 . Hybrid seed comprising at least one transgenic gene capable of being identified, said seed produced by hybrid combination of plants of inbred corn seed designated G0502 in  claim 13  and plants of another inbred line.  
   
   
       15 . A plant according to  claim 2 , including in the plant at least one mutant gene.  
   
   
       16 . A seed according to  claim 1 , including at least one mutant gene.  
   
   
       17 . Hybrid seed comprising at least one mutant gene said seed produced by hybrid combination of plants of inbred corn seed designated G0502 in  claim 16  and plants of another inbred line.
