Abstract

An inbred corn plant containing dominant genetic information that expresses high protein and increased lysine levels in corn kernels produced by the plant is provided. The genetic information in the plant can be used to produce novel inbred corn lines and hybrid corn lines containing high protein and lysine levels both by established plant breeding techniques and other techniques of genetic manipulation.
