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.
This theory is incorrect. Genomes can be increased in size by one with roughly at 1 in 10 (very roughly) chance every time you cross breed them. However they have a roughly equal chance of decreasing size by one instead. This is assuming cross breeding two genomes of equal length, if the genomes are not equal in length the result will be between the lengths of two old genomes +/- 1. So it is possible to continually increase the length of a genome however it is difficult to do predictably.
