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 5PZUE24, which is stable, high-yielding, and agronomically sound, along with methods for crossing, introgressing transgenic or mutant traits, and characterizing plants to enhance breeding efficiency and adaptability.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If traditional soybean variety development methods are used, then desirable traits can be combined in a single variety, but the process takes 6-12 years and is time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecombination of desirable traitsVSAvoiddevelopment time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by establishing a structured breeding program with predefined objectives and selecting germplasm with desired traits before the actual breeding process begins. This advance planning and preparation of materials with specific characteristics (higher seed yield, resistance to diseases and insects, tolerance to drought and/or heat, altered fatty acid profiles) enables more efficient trait combination and reduces the overall development time from 6-12 years

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Reliability

If traditional soybean variety development methods are used, then stable high-yielding varieties can be developed, but the process requires precise planning and efficient resource use with minimum changes in direction

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestability and yield consistencyVSAvoidbreeding program complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies segmentation by breaking down the complex breeding process into distinct sequential steps: (1) analysis and definition of problems and weaknesses of current germplasm, (2) establishment of program goals and breeding objectives, (3) selection of germplasm with desired traits, and (4) combining traits in a single variety. This structured segmentation of the breeding program enables precise planning, efficient resource allocation, and minimizes directional changes while developing stable high-yielding varieties

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
