Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
There is a need for stable, high-yielding corn hybrids that are agronomically sound to maximize ear or kernel production, addressing the challenge of developing superior parental lines for corn breeding.
Innovation Solution
The development of a novel inbred corn line, KW7P1484, which includes methods for producing seeds, plants, and variants with specific morphological and physiological characteristics, utilizing techniques such as mutagenesis and tissue culture to enhance traits like yield, disease resistance, and nutritional quality.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If conventional corn breeding methods are used to develop parental lines, then hybrid production can proceed, but yield and agronomic soundness are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies mutagenesis techniques to induce genetic variations and changes in the corn inbred line, creating new phenotypic parameters that improve yield potential while maintaining agronomic stability through selective breeding
2Adaptability or versatility
If existing inbred lines are used for hybrid production, then breeding programs can continue, but superior parental lines with enhanced traits are not achieved
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary mutagenesis and selection to pre-develop inbred lines with enhanced agronomic traits before they are used in hybrid breeding programs, thereby reducing the complexity of subsequent breeding operations and improving overall program efficiency
