Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The challenge in soybean breeding is to develop stable, high-yielding varieties that are resistant to diseases, insects, and abiotic stresses while maintaining desirable agronomic characteristics, which is a time-consuming process requiring precise planning and resource management.
Innovation Solution
The development of the soybean variety XB11L13, which combines improved traits such as disease resistance, insect tolerance, and abiotic stress tolerance through careful breeding and selection, involving crossing and introgression of transgenic or mutant traits, and characterization using genetic marker profiles.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional breeding methods are used to develop soybean varieties with improved traits, then disease resistance and abiotic stress tolerance are enhanced, but the breeding process becomes time-consuming and resource-intensive
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-selecting and characterizing parental lines with desired traits (disease resistance, abiotic stress tolerance) before crossing. The parental lines are screened and evaluated in advance using standardized protocols, allowing the breeding program to start with pre-qualified genetics rather than discovering traits during the breeding process, thus reducing overall development time while maintaining reliability improvements
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple traits are combined in a single soybean variety through breeding, then agronomic performance and stress tolerance are improved, but the complexity of the breeding program increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies segmentation by dividing the multi-trait breeding program into distinct modular components: (1) selection of parental lines with specific traits, (2) controlled crossing to combine traits, (3) evaluation of progeny for each trait separately, and (4) selection of superior combinations. This modular approach allows complex multi-trait varieties to be developed through manageable, systematic steps rather than attempting to manage all traits simultaneously, reducing program complexity while achieving versatile multi-trait performance
3Stability of the object's composition
If careful selection and evaluation of breeding lines is performed, then variety stability and uniformity are ensured, but the resource requirements and time investment increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies feedback by implementing systematic evaluation and characterization of breeding lines at multiple stages, where performance data from each generation feeds back into selection decisions for the next generation. Lines are screened, evaluated, and characterized using standardized protocols, and only those meeting predetermined stability and uniformity criteria advance to the next breeding stage. This feedback mechanism ensures variety stability through data-driven selection while optimizing resource use by eliminating underperforming lines early rather than investing resources in them throughout the entire breeding process
