Well, genetically, yes. But technically, no. Corn is still a grass plant that has been bred and selected from the original native Mexican grass plant Teosinte, to have larger seeds, a husk surrounding those seeds on a cob, a more upright plant for easier harvesting, and to make the seeds unshatterable for easier harvesting, among other reasons. Humans cannot make plants like Mother Nature can, so, in a way, corn is and isn't man-made.
