Solution Overview

Problem

Current soybean breeding processes are time-consuming and resource-intensive, aiming to develop stable, high-yielding varieties with improved traits such as disease resistance, drought tolerance, and altered fatty acid profiles, but face challenges in efficiently combining these desirable characteristics.

Innovation Solution

The development of the soybean variety XBP39005, which is the result of careful breeding and selection, combining traits like resistance to aerial blight, brown stem rot, and improved fatty acid composition, along with methods for introgressing new traits through backcrossing and transgenic modification to enhance its genetic makeup.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If traditional soybean breeding processes are used to develop new varieties with multiple desirable traits, then the variety can achieve improved yield, disease resistance, and nutritional qualities, but the process becomes time-consuming (6-12 years) and resource-intensive

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevariety stabilityVSAvoidbreeding cycle duration
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-establishing a structured breeding program with defined objectives, selecting germplasm with desired traits before the actual breeding begins, and planning multiple generations of selection and crossing in advance. This systematic preparation allows the breeding process to proceed more efficiently through predetermined stages rather than trial-and-error approaches.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The breeding program is segmented into distinct phases: germplasm analysis and definition of problems, establishment of program goals, selection of germplasm with specific traits, crossing programs, and final variety development. This segmentation allows each phase to be optimized independently and managed more efficiently, reducing the overall time required compared to a monolithic breeding approach.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple desirable traits (disease resistance, drought tolerance, altered fatty acid profile) are combined in a single variety through traditional breeding, then the variety achieves superior performance, but the complexity of the breeding program increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetrait combination capabilityVSAvoidbreeding program complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The breeding program is designed with universality by establishing a comprehensive framework that can simultaneously pursue multiple objectives (yield improvement, disease resistance, drought tolerance, nutritional quality) within a single integrated program. The same breeding infrastructure and methodologies are applied across all trait developments, reducing the need for separate specialized programs for each trait.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent merges multiple breeding objectives into a single unified program by combining germplasm with diverse traits, using coordinated crossing strategies that simultaneously introduce multiple desirable characteristics, and integrating evaluation methods that assess all traits together. This merging approach reduces the complexity that would arise from managing separate breeding programs for each trait.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Manufacturing precision

If extensive germplasm analysis and selection are performed to identify parents with desired traits, then the variety achieves improved characteristics, but the resource consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetrait selection precisionVSAvoidgermplasm quantity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The breeding program applies extraction by systematically identifying and isolating specific germplasm resources that possess desired traits, then extracting only the necessary genetic material from this germplasm for use in crossing programs. This targeted extraction approach ensures that only the most relevant germplasm is processed and used, reducing the overall quantity of germplasm that needs to be maintained and evaluated while maintaining high selection precision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)
