Dresdor's Vine Genetic Theory
As always, further research is required. I am working towards examining some hybrid with solvents, as well as running crossbreeding experiments.
A
Experimentally OYY
Based on Mortality's experiments:
L: Appreciation (QQQ) R: Frivolity (AACCSS)
Result: AQQQK
Not sure where exactly the K comes from. The splice mentioned by Mortality doesn't seem to genetically follow a QQQ mutation, but that isn't the point. The point is that a Right cross with Frivolty, where frivolty contributes one complete gene is an A mutation. Since theoretically, the rightmost gene in question is OYY, we can make a guess that OYY is an A mutation.
C
G
Gene: OOOR
Present in Distraction (GG) and Amusement (GGVV). Different representations in Distraction and Amusement rules out G being involved. Balance's OOR sequence rules out OOR as a possible gene.
Q
Gene: RYYR or RYY
Present in Appreciation (QQQ), Contemplation (QQKK) and Balance (AcQKS). In all cases the gene is RYYR. Frivolty (AACCSS) rules out YYR as a possibility. RYY is not ruled out, however, because it is always expressed in stock as RYYR, it is logical that that is the whole gene sequence.
K
Gene: YRO
From T3 data, also logically represented in Wisdom (KKK). Patterns repeats as expected in Contemplation (QQKK) and Balance (ACQKS)
S
Guess is YYY.
Reasoning: Mortality had a vine cross as follows: L:Frivolity (AACCSS) K RRO OYY GGGGGG (Y[YY)Y] RRO OYY GGGYRK R:Balance (ACQKS)K YYY GGG RYYR GGG YRO GGG RRO OYY GGGOORK Result: AACCK Potential Genotype of Result: K RRO OYY _________ YRO GGG RRO OYY GGG OOR K
Since both sets of YYY's are missing, as is the Sugar mutations, we can make an educated guess that S is represented by YYY.
V
GRO?
Present only in Amusement (GGVV). V not accompanying every G rules out OOO, OOR, OR. V not accompanying any K rules out RO. This means that G must be a part of it. Best guess then is GRO or up to (6G)R. Experimentation required to determine this. Since the longest gene length seems to be 4, GGRO or GRO should be best guesses.
Gene Patterns as yet unidentified
RRO or RROO (present twice in Frivolty (AACCSS) and once in Balance (ACQKS)
OYY (Present in Balance (ACQKS) and twice in Frivolty (AACCSS). Possibly OYYG or some other G addition.
It is logical that these represent A or C in some form.
Starting Grape count
I doubt that the extra G's are merely there for filler or to describe vines as the wild type. Starting grap count seems like an arbitrary thing for a developer to add in to pad a genotype's length.
