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 tolerance to environmental stresses, while existing methods are slow and prone to directional changes.

Innovation Solution

The introduction of soybean variety 5PJQB49, which is stable and homozygous, combined with methods for crossing, introgressing transgenic or mutant traits, and characterizing plants to produce varieties with improved agronomic characteristics, including resistance to diseases and environmental stresses.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If traditional soybean breeding methods are used to combine desirable traits, then disease resistance and yield improvement can be achieved, but the breeding process takes 6-12 years and requires significant resources

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisease resistanceVSAvoidbreeding duration
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-characterizing variety 5PJQB49 for multiple desirable traits including disease resistance, yield potential, and stress tolerance before initiating breeding programs. This advance preparation allows breeders to immediately begin crossing programs with a known superior parent, eliminating years of preliminary variety development and accelerating the overall breeding timeline while maintaining trait reliability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Productivity

If multiple crossing and selection cycles are performed to achieve stable high-yielding varieties, then agronomic soundness and yield stability can be improved, but the process becomes more complex and resource-intensive

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveseed yieldVSAvoidbreeding program complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements feedback by systematically characterizing variety 5PJQB49 across multiple environments and conditions to establish baseline performance data for yield, disease resistance, and stress tolerance. This feedback information guides breeding decisions and selection criteria in subsequent generations, allowing for more efficient breeding programs that maintain productivity while reducing unnecessary complexity through data-driven decision making
