In ATITD, a plants genome is not a sequence of base pairs, though that should have been fairly obvious. No, it's a sequence of colors instead. Here's a table of them (shamelessly filched from Genetics for Dummies):
Gene Color | Abbreviation | Used In | Not Used In |
Black | K | All Plants | |
Red | R | All plants | |
Orange | O | All plants | |
Yellow | Y | All plants | |
Green | G | All plants | |
Blue | U | Orchids, Rose of Ra, Sand Blooms, Sea Lilies | Flax, Grape Vines, Wheat |
Indigo | I | Orchids, Rose of Ra, Sand Blooms, Sea Lilies | Flax, Grape Vines, Wheat |
Violet | V | Sea Lilies | Flax, Grape Vines, Orchids, Rose of Ra, Sand Blooms, Wheat |
If a certain sequence of genes (called a "phenome") appears in a plant's genome, it will influence the plant when it's grown.. For example, testing has shown that for every OR (orange red) that appears in a flax plant's genome, it will need one less weeding than the default (which, incidentally, is five, not two). Flower Genome Theories and Flax Genome Theories have lists of identified phenomes.
