Maize hybrid X14T116
A novel maize variety designated X14T116 and seed, plants and plant parts thereof are produced by crossing inbred maize varieties. Methods for producing a maize plant by crossing hybrid maize variety X14T116 with another maize plant are disclosed. Methods for producing a maize plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into X14T116 through backcrossing or genetic transformation, and to the maize seed, plant and plant part produced thereby are described. Maize variety X14T116, the seed, the plant produced from the seed, and variants, mutants, and minor modifications of maize variety X14T116 are provided. Methods for producing maize varieties derived from maize variety X14T116 and methods of using maize variety X14T116 are disclosed.

5 . A seed of hybrid maize X14T116 further comprising a single locus conversion, wherein a plant grown from the seed comprises a trait conferred by the single locus conversion, wherein the seed is produced by crossing a first plant of maize line PH4CHD with a second plant of maize line PH4CR8, wherein the first plant, the second plant or both further comprise the single locus conversion, and wherein representative seeds of the maize lines PH4CHD and PH4CR8 have been deposited under NCMA Accession Numbers 202301013 and 202211023, respectively, and wherein the seed produces a plant having otherwise all the physiological and morphological characteristics as hybrid maize X14T116 when grown under the same environmental conditions.
6 . The hybrid maize X14T116 seed of claim 5 , wherein the locus conversion confers a property selected from the group consisting of male sterility, herbicide tolerance, insect resistance, disease resistance, waxy starch, modified fatty acid metabolism, modified phytic acid metabolism, modified carbohydrate metabolism and modified protein metabolism.
7 . The hybrid maize X14T116 seed of claim 5 , further comprising a seed treatment on the surface of the seed.
8 . A method for producing nucleic acids, the method comprising isolating nucleic acids from the hybrid maize X14T116 seed of claim 5 .
9 . A plant or plant part grown from the hybrid maize X14T116 seed of claim 5 , the plant part comprising at least one cell of hybrid maize X14T116 further comprising the single locus conversion.
10 . A method of producing a commodity plant product comprising starch, syrup, silage, fat or protein, the method comprising producing the commodity plant product from the plant or plant part of claim 9 .
11 . A method for producing a second maize plant, the method comprising applying plant breeding techniques to the plant or plant part of claim 9 to produce the second maize plant.
12 . A method for producing a hybrid maize X14T116 seed further comprising a locus conversion, the method comprising crossing a first plant of maize line PH4CHD with a second plant of maize line PH4CR8, representative seeds of the maize lines PH4CHD and PH4CR8 having been deposited under NCMA Accession Numbers 202301013 and 202211023, respectively, wherein at least one of the maize lines PH4CHD and PH4CR8 further comprises the locus conversion.
13 . An F1 hybrid maize X14T116 seed further comprising a locus conversion produced by the method of claim 12 , wherein the seed comprises less than six locus conversions, and wherein the seed produces a plant expressing the traits conferred by the less than six locus conversions and comprising otherwise all the physiological and morphological characteristics of hybrid maize X14T116 when grown under the same environmental conditions.
14 . The seed of claim 13 , further comprising a seed treatment on the surface of the seed.
15 . The seed of claim 13 , wherein the less than six locus conversions confer a property selected from the group consisting of male sterility, herbicide tolerance, insect resistance, disease resistance, waxy starch, modified fatty acid metabolism, modified phytic acid metabolism, modified carbohydrate metabolism and modified protein metabolism.
16 . A method for producing nucleic acids, the method comprising isolating nucleic acids from the seed of claim 13 .
