Innovation Solution

The development of the soybean variety 01064130, which incorporates specific genetic traits through backcrossing and genetic transformation, including herbicide resistance and improved fatty acid composition, allowing for the creation of stable and high-yielding soybean plants with enhanced agronomic characteristics.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional breeding techniques are used, then the breeding process is simple and accessible, but the development time is long and the results are unpredictable

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepredictability of breeding resultsVSAvoidbreeding development time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by utilizing molecular markers and genetic transformation techniques to alter the breeding process parameters. Specifically, it uses marker-assisted selection to track and select for desired traits more efficiently, and employs genetic transformation to directly introduce desirable genes, thereby reducing breeding time and increasing predictability of outcomes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces conventional mechanical breeding methods with molecular and genetic techniques. Instead of relying solely on traditional cross-pollination and selection processes, it incorporates molecular marker analysis and genetic transformation, substituting the mechanical breeding system with a more precise molecular-based approach that accelerates variety development.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Stability of the object's composition

If conventional breeding techniques are used, then the breeding process is accessible and straightforward, but the varieties produced lack stability and replicability

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevariety stabilityVSAvoidbreeding process complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces conventional mechanical breeding with molecular and genetic techniques to achieve greater stability. By using molecular markers to track genetic lines and genetic transformation to ensure consistent trait inheritance, the process produces more stable and replicable varieties, though the methodology itself becomes more complex.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent employs copying through the use of molecular markers that can be replicated and tracked across generations. These markers serve as copies of genetic information that allow precise tracking and reproduction of desired traits, ensuring variety stability while requiring complex marker-based systems.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

3Adaptability or versatility

If multiple desirable traits are combined through breeding, then the variety becomes more comprehensive and useful, but the breeding process becomes more complex and time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetrait combination capabilityVSAvoidbreeding cycle duration
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple desirable traits through integrated breeding strategies that combine conventional cross-pollination with molecular marker assistance and genetic transformation. This merging approach allows simultaneous accumulation of multiple traits (disease resistance, yield, quality) while using molecular tools to accelerate the process and reduce the time required compared to traditional methods alone.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies preliminary action by using molecular markers to identify and select for desirable traits before complete phenotypic expression occurs. This allows early selection and combination of multiple traits in the breeding process, reducing the overall time needed to develop varieties with comprehensive trait sets.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
