Cross Breeding with Nut's Essence

Determining the length of genome of a child plant

1) Add genome length of Left Splint plant to genome length of Right Splint plant.
2) Divide this *sum by 2.
3) Round up if the *quotient is not an *integer. This is the length of genome for the child plant except...
4) There is a 25% chance of a duplicated gene at the splint point. There is a 25% chance of a destroyed gene at the splint point. In half the crosses the length of the child genome length might be +1 more or -1 less.

Example:
1) Add
Left Splint genome length . 37
Right Splint genome length +26
2) Divide by 2. . . . . . . 63 / 2 = 31.5
3) Round up 31.5 ----> 32 <---- child genome length (see note 4 above)

*Math lessons:
Two numbers added together equals a sum.
A dividend is divided by a divisor and that equals a quotient.
An integer is a whole number, not a fraction.

Knowing the genome of your child plant

Put the Left Splint genome on top and the Right Splint genome underneath.
Example: Left Splint Crown/ Right Splint Blush
UROOUROOUROOVURVOOVURVORVURORURORUROR
GRORVGOOOVUROOVIOVIOOVIOOO
Center the shortest genome.
If the child genome length had to be rounded up, shift the shortest genome by 1 gene in the direction of the Splint it was in. UROOUROOUROOVURVOOVURVORVURORURORUROR
......GRORVGOOOVUROOVIOVIOOVIOOO..... Had to shift this shortest Right Splint genome to the right by 1
The splice point will now be as if you draw a vertical line straight down between the two sets of genomes (denoted by vertical bars as an example). In reality usually you will know a range of genes where the splice point might be. Refer to one of the Plant Genome Theories pages links below to interpret gene sets to know approximately where the splice point happens.

Your child genome will start with the leftmost gene of the Left Splint, go to the splice point, then include the genes from the splice point to the rightmost gene of the Right Splint. UROOUROOURO|OVUR|
