Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If traditional wheat breeding methods are used, then existing varieties can be maintained, but genetic diversity and adaptability to new conditions are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveadaptabilityVSAvoidbreeding program complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The breeding program is divided into distinct phases: initial cross between divergent parents, F2 generation screening, backcrossing to recurrent parent, and advanced generation testing. This segmentation allows systematic management of complexity while achieving high adaptability through controlled genetic combinations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Parental lines are selected and crossed before the actual breeding program begins. The F1 generation is produced and selfed to create F2 populations that are screened for desirable traits. This preliminary action establishes a foundation of genetic diversity that can be systematically developed into adapted varieties.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Stability of the object's composition

If multiple generations of selfing and selection are performed, then homozygosity and variety stability are improved, but time required for variety development increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevariety stabilityVSAvoidvariety development time
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The breeding program begins with pre-selected parental lines that possess desirable traits. The F1 generation is produced and selfed to create F2 populations, allowing preliminary selection of superior combinations before the main breeding cycle begins. This reduces the number of generations needed for stabilization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

Selection is based on phenotypic observations and performance data from field tests. The results from advanced generations feed back into the selection criteria for earlier generations, allowing continuous optimization. This feedback mechanism ensures stability is achieved efficiently by selecting only the most promising lines.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Adaptability or versatility

If cross-pollination is used to introduce genetic diversity, then new traits can be introduced, but control over pollination and genetic uniformity is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvegenetic diversityVSAvoidpollination control
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The breeding program uses controlled crosses between specific parental lines with known genetic characteristics. By pre-selecting parents and controlling the crossing process, the program introduces genetic diversity while maintaining operational control. The F1 generation is then selfed to create uniform F2 populations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The F1 generation serves as an intermediary between the divergent parental lines and the final variety. By selfing the F1 to create F2 populations, the program maintains control over pollination while still introducing the genetic diversity needed for adaptability. The F2 generation acts as an intermediate step before final variety development.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
