Genetics for Dummies
Gene -> Gene Sets -> Genomes
A gene is a basic physical unit of heredity. A gene in ATITD is expressed as a color. Each color is abbreviated to one letter for ease of use. Example: Yellow or Y
A gene set is one or more genes in a specific sequence that controls a plant's physical characteristics. Example: Green Orange Orange Orange or GOOO which colors an outer petal of a lily one shade of magenta
One or more genes or gene sets form a linear sequence we will call a genome. Example: Vampire Sea Lily genome KIYIYIOIYIOIOK
Genes and their abbreviations:
- Black --> K (Ending/beginning delimiter not technically counted as part of the functioning genome)
- Blue ---> U
- Green --> G
- Indigo -> I
- Orange -> O
- Red ----> R
- Yellow -> Y
- Violet -> V
