Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current soybean breeding methods face challenges in developing stable, high-yielding varieties with desirable traits such as disease resistance, drought tolerance, and improved nutritional quality, as they rely on conventional breeding procedures that are time-consuming and unpredictable, with millions of possible genetic combinations generated without control.
Innovation Solution
The development of the soybean variety A1024210, which includes methods for crossing and breeding to introduce specific traits like herbicide resistance, disease resistance, and improved nutritional quality through genetic transformation and backcrossing, allowing for the creation of soybean plants with consistent physiological and morphological characteristics.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional breeding procedures are used to develop soybean varieties, then a wide range of genetic combinations are generated, but the process becomes time-consuming and unpredictable
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-selecting specific parental lines with known desirable traits (herbicide resistance, disease resistance, yield characteristics) before crossing. This pre-planning and selection of parents with defined genetic characteristics allows the breeding program to move directly toward specific breeding objectives, avoiding the time-consuming trial and error of conventional breeding while still generating diverse genetic combinations through controlled crosses
2Adaptability or versatility
If conventional breeding procedures are used to develop soybean varieties, then numerous genetic combinations are produced, but the process becomes unpredictable
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback by systematically evaluating progeny for specific target traits (herbicide resistance, disease resistance, yield, quality characteristics) and using this information to guide subsequent breeding decisions. This feedback loop allows breeders to select and advance only those lines that demonstrate the desired traits, making the breeding process more predictable and reliable while maintaining genetic diversity through controlled crossing
3Manufacturing precision
If genetic transformation and backcrossing methods are used, then specific desirable traits can be introduced precisely, but the device and process complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies segmentation by breaking down the complex breeding process into distinct, manageable stages: (1) genetic transformation to introduce specific traits into donor lines, (2) backcrossing to transfer traits to the target variety background, (3) selection and evaluation of progeny, and (4) variety development. This segmentation allows each step to be optimized and controlled independently, achieving precise trait introduction while making the overall complex process more manageable and systematic
