Solution Overview

Problem

Existing soybean varieties lack improved combinations of traits such as higher seed yield, disease resistance, herbicide tolerance, and nutritional quality, making it challenging to develop stable and high-yielding soybean varieties that meet agronomic and nutritional demands.

Innovation Solution

Development of the soybean variety 01093014, which incorporates genetic modifications and locus conversions for traits like glyphosate and dicamba tolerance, disease resistance, and improved nutritional content, achieved through methods such as genome editing using engineered nucleases.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If conventional breeding methods are used to develop soybean varieties, then genetic diversity is maintained, but the ability to combine multiple improved traits (yield, disease resistance, herbicide tolerance, nutritional quality) in a single variety is limited

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecombination of improved traitsVSAvoidseed yield

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs genome editing technology to precisely modify specific genetic parameters in soybean variety 01093014, enabling the introduction of multiple improved traits including glyphosate tolerance, dicamba tolerance, and disease resistance through targeted genomic changes rather than conventional breeding

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If multiple traits are combined in a single soybean variety, then agronomic performance and resistance are improved, but the complexity of breeding and development increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvedisease resistanceVSAvoidbreeding program complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces complex mechanical breeding processes with genome editing technology, substituting traditional multi-generational crossing and selection methods with direct genetic modification approaches that introduce multiple traits more efficiently and with greater precision

Inventive Principle:

Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

3Productivity

If soybean varieties are developed for high yield and multiple resistances, then commercial value increases, but the time required for variety development and stabilization extends

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvegrain productionVSAvoidvariety development time

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary genome editing actions to soybean variety 01093014 during the breeding process, introducing multiple desired traits including herbicide tolerances and disease resistances in advance rather than requiring multiple generations of conventional breeding to accumulate these traits

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action
