Discovered with "Septaration Vine"

This is repeatable, and the Septaration vine is available upon request for testing.


I will simplify the discovery, and look forward to comments. Feel free to post on this page, or chat me if you see me online.
I know (or am quite certain) that the length of the genome is 45, have plenty of tests, and will add more details here if needed. First what happened & how you can test where the genome theory 'must be flawed':

Mutating position 7 to 'Y' removes an 'Acid' phenotype (or breaks the 'OYYG' acid chain).
Mutating position 8 to 'Y' removes both 'Acid' and 'Color'. (one modification breaking both RROOYY and OOYYG).

I understand it is possible for genomes to overlap, and yes, acid and color can overlap here, but not with an acid only brekaing at a position of one prior to both breaking. At least . . .not when using 'Y' as the donor genome.

In all cases, I was using pascarella 45s as a donor vine. I am assuming that I am gaining a Y genome, and that 'Y' is the only genome present in the long chain of Pascarella's 45s.

My best guess is that position 8 would be like the bolded letter below:
K XXXXRROOYYG...
The question I have is, "How does position 7 remove only an acid?"
