Solution Overview

Problem

The development of stable, high-yielding soybean varieties that are agronomically sound and possess desirable traits such as disease resistance, drought tolerance, and improved compositional characteristics is a time-consuming process requiring precise planning and resource efficiency, with existing methods taking six to twelve years from cross to delivery.

Innovation Solution

The introduction of the novel soybean variety 5PUEL09, which combines desirable traits like disease resistance, drought tolerance, and improved agronomic characteristics, along with methods for crossing, introgressing traits, and producing derived varieties, allows for the efficient development of soybean plants and plant parts.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If traditional soybean breeding methods are used to develop new varieties with desirable traits, then the varieties achieve stability and high yield, but the development process takes six to twelve years

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevariety stabilityVSAvoiddevelopment time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-selecting and characterizing parent lines with specific desirable traits (disease resistance, drought tolerance, yield potential) before initiating the breeding program. This advance preparation of genetically superior parent material accelerates the overall development timeline while maintaining variety stability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Productivity

If multiple desirable traits are combined in a single soybean variety, then agronomic performance and yield are improved, but the breeding process becomes more complex and time-consuming

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

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple desirable traits (disease resistance, drought tolerance, high yield) into a single integrated soybean variety through systematic breeding. This combining of traits directly addresses the productivity enhancement while the structured approach manages the inherent complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Reliability

If extensive testing and selection are performed to ensure variety stability, then the resulting variety is agronomically sound, but resources and time are consumed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveagronomic soundnessVSAvoidresource consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements feedback mechanisms through multi-environment testing and performance evaluation of breeding lines. This systematic feedback process ensures agronomic soundness and variety stability while optimizing resource allocation by identifying and eliminating inferior lines early in the development process

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
