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 5PDVD01, which is a stable, high-yielding variety with improved traits such as resistance to diseases and environmental stresses, achieved through careful breeding and potential introgression of transgenic or mutant traits, allowing for efficient production of seeds and plant parts with specific characteristics.

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 can achieve high yield and disease resistance, but the development process takes 6-12 years and requires significant 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-characterizing variety 5PDVD01 with multiple desirable traits (disease resistance, stress tolerance, yield potential) before using it as a parent in breeding programs. This allows breeders to start with a pre-optimized genetic base, reducing the time required to develop new varieties compared to traditional breeding where traits are accumulated over multiple generations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses variety 5PDVD01 as an intermediary parent in crossing programs. By introducing this variety with known desirable traits as a mediator between other breeding lines, breeders can efficiently transfer multiple traits simultaneously, reducing the overall breeding cycle from 6-12 years to a more manageable timeframe.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If breeders aim to combine multiple desirable traits in a single variety, then the final variety achieves high yield and adaptability, but the breeding process becomes more complex and requires precise planning

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveperformance across different conditionsVSAvoidbreeding program complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple desirable traits (disease resistance, stress tolerance, yield potential, maturity characteristics) into a single parent variety (5PDVD01) before breeding. This consolidation allows breeders to inherit multiple traits simultaneously through a single cross, reducing breeding program complexity compared to accumulating traits through multiple sequential crosses.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent utilizes parameter changes by selecting variety 5PDVD01 with specific, optimized trait parameters (e.g., particular maturity group, specific disease resistance levels, defined stress tolerance thresholds). These pre-optimized parameters serve as a stable foundation for developing new varieties with predictable performance across different environmental conditions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Stability of the object's composition

If breeders conduct extensive testing to ensure variety stability and uniformity, then the varieties achieve phenotypic stability, but the process requires significant resources and time investment

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvephenotypic uniformityVSAvoidresource consumption in breeding
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies self-service by developing variety 5PDVD01 with inherently stable and uniform traits that require minimal additional testing and intervention. The variety's genetic stability and consistent phenotypic expression reduce the resources needed for ongoing maintenance and verification, allowing it to serve itself as a reliable breeding parent without extensive external support.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
