Solution Overview

Problem

Current soybean breeding methods face challenges in developing stable, high-yielding soybean varieties with improved traits such as disease resistance, herbicide tolerance, and nutritional quality, which are difficult to predict and require extensive research and time due to the complexity of genetic combinations and environmental factors.

Innovation Solution

The development of the soybean variety 01083849, which includes specific genetic modifications and locus conversions for traits like herbicide resistance, disease resistance, and improved nutritional quality, achieved through genetic transformation and backcrossing techniques, allowing for the introduction of desirable traits while maintaining the original variety's morphological and physiological characteristics.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional soybean breeding methods are used, then variety development can proceed through traditional selection and crossing, but the process requires extensive research and time due to genetic complexity and environmental factors

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepredictability of improved traitsVSAvoidtime required for variety development
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by modifying specific genetic loci through targeted mutation or introduction of alleles with known effects on desired traits. This approach changes the genetic parameters directly rather than relying on complex recombination, making trait outcomes more predictable and accelerating variety development while maintaining genetic diversity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent employs preliminary action by pre-selecting and characterizing germplasm with desirable traits before breeding operations. By identifying and preserving accessions with known beneficial characteristics in a curated collection, breeders can efficiently combine these pre-validated traits, reducing the time and research needed during the breeding process itself.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple traits are combined in a single variety, then the variety becomes more complex with multiple genetic modifications, but this increases the difficulty of predicting performance and requires extensive breeding research

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecombination of improved traitsVSAvoidgenetic complexity of variety
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies segmentation by developing and maintaining distinct germplasm accessions, each carrying specific trait combinations or individual desirable alleles. This segmentation allows breeders to work with modular genetic units that can be systematically combined, reducing the complexity of predicting multi-trait performance while maximizing adaptability through targeted assembly of proven genetic components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
