Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current soybean breeding processes are time-consuming and resource-intensive, aiming to develop stable, high-yielding varieties with desirable traits like disease resistance, drought tolerance, and improved fatty acid profiles, but face challenges in efficiently combining these traits into a single variety.
Innovation Solution
Development of the soybean variety 93Y10, which combines resistance to multiple diseases, herbicides, and environmental stresses, with a specific genetic profile that allows for introgression of new traits through backcrossing and transgenic methods, enabling the creation of progeny with enhanced agronomic qualities.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If traditional soybean breeding methods are used to develop new varieties with multiple desirable traits, then the variety can achieve comprehensive trait improvement, but the breeding process becomes time-consuming and resource-intensive
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-establishing a structured breeding program with defined objectives, selecting parent lines with specific desirable traits before the breeding process begins, and planning multi-generation crossing schemes in advance. This allows the complex trait combination to be achieved systematically rather than through trial-and-error methods, reducing overall breeding time while maintaining comprehensive trait improvement.
Solution Approach 2:
The breeding program is segmented into distinct phases: selection of parent lines, controlled crossing, multi-generation selfing and selection, and variety release. Each phase focuses on specific traits and has defined objectives, making the complex process manageable and time-efficient. The segmentation allows parallel processing of different trait combinations across multiple lines simultaneously.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple desirable traits are combined into a single variety through traditional breeding, then the variety achieves superior performance, but the process requires precise forward planning and efficient resource use
Solution Approach 1:
The breeding program is designed with multi-functionality, where selected parent lines and intermediate varieties serve multiple purposes: they provide specific desirable traits, act as donors for future crosses, and establish genetic backgrounds for multiple target traits simultaneously. This universal approach reduces the number of separate breeding lines needed and simplifies program management while achieving comprehensive trait combination.
Solution Approach 2:
The program incorporates feedback mechanisms through systematic evaluation of progeny performance at each generation, allowing breeders to adjust selection criteria and crossing strategies based on observed results. This feedback loop ensures efficient resource allocation by focusing efforts on the most promising lines and traits, reducing overall program complexity.
3Reliability
If conventional breeding is used to develop high-yielding varieties with disease resistance and stress tolerance, then the variety achieves superior agronomic qualities, but the process is resource-intensive and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The program pre-identifies and selects parent lines that possess desirable agronomic qualities such as disease resistance and stress tolerance before the breeding process begins. By having these traits pre-established in the parental material, the breeding process can focus on combining and stabilizing these traits rather than developing them from scratch, significantly reducing the time required to achieve superior agronomic qualities.
Solution Approach 2:
The breeding program maintains continuous selection and evaluation processes across multiple generations, ensuring that desirable agronomic qualities are consistently maintained and improved. This continuous action prevents regression of traits and accelerates the stabilization of superior varieties, reducing the overall development time while maintaining high reliability of agronomic performance.
