Inbred corn line D080224

A method of introducing a desired trait into corn inbred line D080224, representative seed of the line having been deposited under ATCC Accession No. PTA-124406, the method comprising:

• (a) crossing D080224 plants with plants of another corn line that comprise a desired trait to produce F1 progeny plants;
• (b) selecting F1 progeny plants;
• (c) crossing F1 progeny plants that have the desired trait with D080224 plants to produce backcross progeny plants;
• (d) selecting for backcross progeny plants that comprise the desired trait and physiological and morphological characteristics of corn inbred line D080224;
• and
• (e) performing steps (c) and (d) sufficient times in succession to produce the selected or higher backcross progeny plants that comprise the desired trait and all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of corn inbred line D080224 listed in Table 1 as determined at the 5% significance level when grown in the same environmental conditions.
