SPROLEMANGO Rose Compact Growth and Disease Tolerance
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current Floribunda rose varieties lack compact growth habits and disease tolerance, limiting their ornamental value and adaptability in diverse landscaping settings.
Innovation Solution
Development of the 'SPROLEMANGO' Floribunda rose variety through artificial pollination, resulting in a plant with semi-double, apricot-colored blossoms, compact growth, vigorous vegetation, dark green glossy foliage, and good disease tolerance, achieved through selective breeding and stable asexual propagation methods.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If conventional Floribunda rose varieties are used, then they have upright growth habit and larger size, but they lack compact growth habit and disease tolerance
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies parameter changes by selectively breeding roses to alter growth habit parameters from upright to compact, and by selecting for enhanced disease tolerance. The 'SPROLEMANGO' variety exhibits these changed parameters through controlled pollination and selection of parent plants with desired traits, resulting in a new variety with compact growth and improved disease resistance
2Adaptability or versatility
If selective breeding is performed to achieve compact growth habit, then ornamental value is improved, but breeding time and complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-selecting parent plants that possess the desired compact growth habit and other ornamental traits before performing the cross-pollination. The parent plants were carefully chosen and studied in advance to ensure they would contribute the desired characteristics to the offspring, thereby streamlining the breeding process and reducing the time required to develop the new variety
