Solution Overview

Problem

The development of new soybean varieties is a time-consuming process that requires precise planning and efficient resource use, aiming to combine desirable traits such as high yield, disease resistance, and environmental tolerance, while existing methods are inefficient and directionally unstable, taking six to twelve years from the first cross to delivering finished seed to farmers.

Innovation Solution

The introduction of soybean variety 5PGDV09, which is self-pollinated to ensure homozygosity and phenotypic stability, along with methods for crossing, introgressing transgenic or mutant traits, and characterizing the variety to produce stable, high-yielding soybeans with improved agronomic characteristics.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If traditional soybean variety development methods are used, then multiple desirable traits can be combined, but the process takes six to twelve years and is time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecombination of desirable traitsVSAvoiddevelopment time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by establishing a structured breeding program with predefined objectives and selecting germplasm with desired traits before the breeding process begins. This upfront planning and preparation of genetic material accelerates the overall development timeline by avoiding mid-process directional changes

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Productivity

If traditional breeding processes are used, then new varieties can be developed, but resource efficiency is low and planning precision is required

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevariety development outputVSAvoidresource efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the variety development process into distinct phases: germplasm selection, crossing, evaluation, and deployment. Each phase has specific objectives and criteria, allowing for focused resource allocation and efficient progression through the breeding pipeline without unnecessary delays or resource waste

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Adaptability or versatility

If breeding programs make changes in direction, then adaptation to new goals is possible, but the process becomes less efficient and more time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprogram flexibilityVSAvoiddevelopment efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent establishes precise program goals and breeding objectives at the outset, with careful selection of germplasm that possesses the desired traits. This preliminary planning creates a stable directional framework that maintains efficiency while still allowing for scientific adaptation based on evaluation results

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
