Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If traditional wheat breeding methods are used to develop new varieties, then genetic diversity and trait combination are improved, but breeding time and complexity increase significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetrait combinationVSAvoidbreeding time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-characterizing parental lines with numerous markers before crossing, and by using marker-assisted selection in early generations to predict and select for desired trait combinations. This allows breeders to identify promising crosses earlier in the breeding process, reducing the time required to develop new varieties with specific trait combinations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements feedback through marker-assisted selection, where molecular markers provide continuous information about the genetic composition of breeding lines. This feedback allows breeders to make informed decisions about which lines to advance or cross, accelerating the breeding process while maintaining control over trait combination.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Stability of the object's composition

If inbred lines are used for hybrid seed production, then uniformity and reproducibility are improved, but plant vigor and seed yield decrease

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveuniformityVSAvoidseed yield
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by utilizing heterosis (hybrid vigor) where F1 hybrid seeds are produced from crosses between different inbred lines. The hybrid offspring exhibit superior vigor and yield compared to the parental inbreds, while still maintaining uniformity within the hybrid population. This allows the breeding program to achieve both uniformity and high productivity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Reliability

If multiple breeding objectives are pursued simultaneously, then variety performance is improved, but breeding program complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevariety performanceVSAvoidbreeding program complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies segmentation by dividing the breeding program into distinct components: parental line development, crossing design, progeny evaluation, and variety registration. Each component can be managed separately with specific protocols and criteria, making the overall complex program more tractable and systematic while still achieving multiple breeding objectives.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
