Flax Genome Theories

From ATITD6
Jump to navigationJump to search

Theories:

Defaults

A default rate is the amount when the genome length is zero.

  • Weed Default is 5 Weeds. GYGYGY and OR are the phenomes to reduce number of weedings. Nile Green has 3 OR and one GYGYGY and 1 weeding. Old Egypt has 3 OR and 2 weedings.
Proofs: Ariella #131 Nile Green(left)/Nile Green(right) cross KORGRGYGYGYGRGY-RYYRGROYYORRK -O 
Added one extra weed to Nile Green when 1 of the 3 OR was subtracted.
Ariella #8 Old Egypt(left)/Nile Green(right) cross KRYYOGYGYORR/GYGYGRGYORYYRGROYYORRK
Yielded 2 weedings and 2 Flax. Old T3 theory said (amount of flax or GYGY) - 1. This had 3 OR and 2 GYGY 
but still 2 weedings not 1 weeding.
  • Seed Default is zero.
  • Weed and Water Default is zero.
  • Flax Default is zero.
  • Rotten Flax Default is zero.

Phenomes

  • +1 Seed RO
  • -1 Weeding OR
  • +1 Flax GYGY
  • +1 Rotten Flax RRGY
  • +1 Water and -1 Weed GYGYGY
  • ROY needed to get flax (without ROY but with RRGYGY in the genome, we got 1 rotten flax and zero flax; with ROY and with RRGYGY, we got 1 rotten flax and 1 flax)


Genome Size Theory

If the genome size is small, the recombination of a very good flax genome (with many beneficial phemones) risks wrecking the genome. If it is large, we would have constant improvement in seeds because the risk of beneficial phenome breakage is low. Witnessed by the Tedra line, it takes more and more attempts to get a good seed. Thus, it is extremely likely that genome sizes are limited. Otherwise, we would have larger and larger genomes that provide better and better results, on a linear scale.

Genome sizes of a given breed are fixed (for example nile green has 27 genes and old egypt has 39). However using cross breeding you can increase the size of a genome. Each time you cross breed two plants a length is chosen between the length of the two parents (I believe it's a weighted average based on where the split occurs but did most of my research with genomes of equal length) then about 1 in 10 times the genome's length is increased by one or 1 in 10 times it is decreased by one. This increase comes in the form of doubling the gene on one side of the split (I believe it's always the gene from the right hand side but I don't remember). So it is possible to increase the length of a genome arbitrarily however it's time consuming and expensive.
