A method of producing an herbicide resistant corn plant wherein the method comprises transforming the corn plant of claim 2 with a transgene that confers herbicide resistance. 11. An herbicide resistant corn plant produced by the method of claim 10. 12. The corn plant of claim 11, wherein the transgene confers resistance to an herbicide selected from the group consisting of imidazolinone, sulfonylurea, glyphosate, glufosinate, L-phosphinothricin, triazine and benzonitrile. 13. A method of producing an insect resistant corn plant wherein the method comprises transforming the corn plant of claim 2 with a transgene that confers insect resistance. 14. An insect resistant corn plant produced by the method of claim 13. 15. The corn plant of claim 14 wherein the transgene encodes a Bacillus thuringiensis endotoxin. 16. A method of producing a disease resistant corn plant wherein the method comprises transforming the corn plant of claim 2 with a transgene that confers disease resistance. 17. A disease resistant corn plant produced by the method of claim 16. 18. A method of introducing a desired trait into corn cultivar FAR045 wherein the method comprises: crossing FAR045 plants grown from FAR045 seeds seed, representative seed of which has been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-9274, with plants of another corn line that comprise a desired trait to produce progeny plants, wherein the desired trait is selected from the group consisting of male sterility, herbicide resistance, insect resistance and disease resistance; selecting progeny plants that have the desired trait to produce selected progeny plants; crossing the selected progeny plants with the FAR045 plants to produce backcross progeny plants; selecting for backcross progeny plants that have the desired trait and the other physiological and morphological characteristics of corn cultivar FAR045 to produce selected backcross progeny plants; and repeating said crossing and selecting for backcross progeny plants steps at least three times in succession, or, when using molecular markers, repeating said crossing and selecting at least once and selfing said backcross progeny plants at least once, to produce respective selected fourth or higher backcross progeny plants or second-selfed backcross progeny plants that comprise the desired trait and essentially all of the other physiological and morphological characteristics of corn cultivar FAR045. 19. A plant produced by the method of claim 18, wherein the plant has the desired trait and physiological and morphological characteristics of corn cultivar FAR601 as determined at the 5% significance level when grown in the same environmental conditions. 20. The plant of claim 19 wherein the desired trait is herbicide resistance and the resistance is conferred to an herbicide selected from the group consisting of imidazolinone, sulfonylurea, glyphosate, glufosinate, L-phosphinothricin, triazine and benzonitrile. 21. The plant of claim 19 wherein the desired trait is insect resistance and the insect resistance is conferred by a transgene encoding at least a portion of a Bacillus thuringiensis endotoxin. 22. A process of developing a corn variety, comprising sequentially inbreeding segregating generations of a corn hybrid having the plant of claim 2 as a parent until an advanced generation is attained, said advanced generation being F5 or greater and developing a corn variety. 23. The process of claim 22, in which inbreeding includes self-pollination. 24. A process of extracting anthocyanin, comprising immersing a plant part from the plant of claim 2 in a solvent to thereby extract anthocyanin from said plant part. 25. The process of claim 24, wherein said solvent is aqueous. 26. The process of claim 24, further comprising agitating said immersed plant part.
