Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The development of stable, high-yielding soybean varieties that are agronomically sound and adaptable to various conditions and environments is a time-consuming process requiring precise planning and resource efficiency, with existing methods taking six to twelve years from the first cross to seed delivery.
Innovation Solution
The introduction of the novel soybean variety 5PWSG47, which includes methods for crossing, introgressing transgenic or mutant traits, and characterizing soybean plants to enhance traits such as disease resistance, drought tolerance, and improved agronomic characteristics, thereby accelerating the breeding process.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional soybean breeding methods are used to develop stable, high-yielding varieties with maximal yield over different conditions and environments, then the varieties achieve high stability and yield, but the development process takes six to twelve years and requires significant resources
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-selecting and characterizing parent lines with desirable traits (disease resistance, yield potential, adaptability) before crossing. This advance preparation of germplasm with known characteristics accelerates the breeding process while maintaining reliability, as the parent selection is done systematically before the actual variety development begins
2Adaptability or versatility
If traditional breeding methods are used to combine multiple desirable traits in a single variety, then the variety achieves improved agronomic characteristics, but the process requires precise planning and efficient resource use over extended periods
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies segmentation by dividing the complex breeding process into distinct phases: parent line selection, crossing, progeny evaluation, and variety registration. Each phase has specific objectives and criteria, allowing systematic progression while maintaining adaptability. This segmented approach improves breeding efficiency by clearly defining milestones and resource allocation at each stage
3Reliability
If breeders select germplasm with multiple desirable traits to meet program goals, then the final variety achieves higher yield and resistance, but the selection and crossing process becomes more complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by focusing on specific, localized traits in parent lines rather than attempting to combine all possible desirable traits simultaneously. Each parent line is selected for particular strengths (e.g., one for disease resistance, another for yield potential), and these localized excellences are combined through controlled crossing. This reduces breeding program complexity while maintaining high disease resistance in the final variety
