Solution Overview

Problem

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

Innovation Solution

The development of the soybean variety 01091749, which involves a specific breeding history and genetic modifications, including the introduction of transgenic genes for herbicide resistance and disease resistance, using techniques like backcrossing and genetic transformation to introduce desired traits while maintaining the morphological and physiological characteristics of the original variety.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional breeding methods are used to develop soybean varieties with improved traits, then genetic diversity and trait improvement are achieved, but the breeding process requires extensive research efforts and is difficult to predict due to genetic complexity and environmental factors

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepredictability of trait expressionVSAvoidbreeding research time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the genetic parameters of the soybean variety by introducing specific transgenic events (MON89788, A5547-127, MON87708) that confer predictable herbicide resistance traits. This genetic parameter modification allows breeders to achieve reliable trait expression without extensive breeding research, as the transgenic events provide consistent, predictable resistance to specific herbicides.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple traits are combined in a single soybean variety to improve agronomic quality, then the variety becomes more versatile and high-yielding, but the device complexity and breeding difficulty increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveagronomic versatilityVSAvoidbreeding program complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple transgenic events (MON89788 for glyphosate resistance, A5547-127 for glufosinate resistance, and MON87708 for dicamba resistance) into a single soybean variety (01091749). This combining approach provides broad-spectrum herbicide resistance and improved agronomic versatility in one variety, eliminating the need for separate breeding programs for each trait and reducing overall breeding complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
