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 adaptability to various conditions, but existing methods are slow and prone to directional changes.

Innovation Solution

The introduction of soybean variety 5PHJB26, 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

1Reliability

If traditional soybean breeding methods are used to combine desirable traits, then the variety can achieve high yield and disease resistance, but the development process takes 6-12 years and requires multiple directional changes

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestability of desirable traitsVSAvoidbreeding process duration
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by using self-pollination to establish homozygosity and phenotypic stability before initiating the breeding program. This preparatory step ensures that the parental lines are genetically uniform and stable, reducing the need for later directional changes and accelerating the overall breeding process while maintaining trait reliability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Manufacturing precision

If traditional breeding methods are used to develop new varieties, then trait combination is achieved, but the process requires precise planning and efficient resource use with minimal directional changes

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprecision of trait combinationVSAvoidbreeding program complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies segmentation by dividing the breeding program into distinct phases: selection of germplasm with specific traits, self-pollination to establish homozygosity, controlled crossing to combine traits, and evaluation. This segmented approach simplifies the overall program complexity while maintaining precision in trait combination by focusing on one objective at each stage

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Stability of the object's composition

If self-pollination is used to ensure homozygosity, then phenotypic stability is achieved, but the breeding process becomes more resource-intensive

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehomozygosity and phenotypic stabilityVSAvoidresource intensity of breeding process
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies self-service by utilizing the natural self-pollination capability of soybean plants to achieve homozygosity. This eliminates the need for complex人工 intervention systems while maintaining phenotypic stability. The plants serve themselves by self-pollinating, reducing the resource intensity compared to methods requiring extensive manual pollination or sophisticated controlled environments

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
