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.

Innovation Solution

The introduction of the novel soybean variety 5PJSS43, which is developed through specific breeding methods involving crossing, introgression of transgenic, mutant, or native traits, and characterization, aiming to stabilize and enhance agronomic traits like yield, disease resistance, and environmental tolerance.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If traditional soybean breeding methods are used to combine desirable traits, then the variety achieves high yield and disease resistance, but the development process takes six to twelve years and requires extensive resources

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveyield stability and disease resistanceVSAvoidbreeding cycle duration
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-screening and selecting parent lines with desirable traits (high yield, disease resistance, environmental tolerance) before initiating the breeding program. This advance preparation and selection of genetically superior parents accelerates the breeding process while ensuring the final variety meets performance targets, reducing the overall 6-12 year timeline.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple crossing and selection steps are performed to achieve trait combination, then the variety achieves improved agronomic characteristics, but the process becomes complex and resource-intensive

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveagronomic trait combinationVSAvoidbreeding process complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies segmentation by dividing the breeding program into distinct phases: parent selection, initial crossing, F1 evaluation, backcrossing, and variety development. Each phase has specific objectives and selection criteria, allowing systematic progression while managing complexity. This structured segmentation reduces resource waste and improves efficiency in achieving the desired trait combination.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Stability of the object's composition

If extensive field testing and evaluation are conducted to ensure variety stability, then the variety achieves consistent performance across environments, but the time and resources required increase significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevariety performance consistencyVSAvoidbreeding output per unit time
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by conducting preliminary field testing and evaluation during the F1 and backcross generations to identify and eliminate unstable lines early in the breeding process. This early assessment prevents investment of extensive resources in lines that will not achieve stable performance, thereby improving breeding productivity while still ensuring variety consistency through targeted testing of promising candidates.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
