Abstract
A hybrid corn line having the designation P725, produced by crossing two maize inbreds, Qx47 and Zx23. P725 imparts a high oil level in the grain of certain male sterile hybrids when used as a pollinator. P725 is characterized by excellent seedling vigor in cold soil tests and excellent productivity in TC BLEND® Seed Corn Products of medium to late season adaptability. This invention thus relates to the seeds, plants and plant parts of P725 and its components, to plants regenerated from tissue culture of the plants of P725, to a method of producing P725, and to a method for producing high oil grain using P725 as a pollinator.
