I love your fairy cactus. I used to have one for a long time then I moved and it died. Now I'm sad and miss it.
Great plants op!
I was playing it on console so I didn't get to do any mods to really increase the fun but I still had a lot of fun anyway. I do think the devs need to try a bit harder. I feel like they just provide a framework for mods without making a really nice game themselves.
That being said I played hundreds of hours of both and really like them. I just wish they were a bit better
I'm someone who may want to buy a car cash how should I do it? Just wait until everything is set up then just pay? I don't want them to deny me
Until someone who knows more tells me otherwise, no. It would have to be applied to a human at the stage of a single cell
Don't worry. Autism is more complicated.
Hey, if you had funding you could totally go for it. I'm only familiar with likelihood of rare plant events because I'm always trying to get them in vain. Several years now with gene editing tools haha
It's still random chance. But you are of course right that you would get them faster than possible in what's typically considered natural.
No one really does this anymore though. Of course you can't select the radiation induced mutation or where or how many or how large or what you want it to do. Most give nothing useful whatsoever if they aren't just outright killed by the mutation.
You just would have to do literally billions of them and see if you can observe any type of desirable phenotype because there's no realistic way to do sequencing on that many.
Many traits are not regulated by single genes but on long pathways involving multi gene networks. These are complex and make it even more unlikely to obtain in any reasonable amount of time adding another layer of complexity
If you want a plant to glow and all you're doing hypothetically is irradiating them I think it would take much longer than you may initially expect.
Thank you for the enjoyable discussion by the way :)
I mean yeah if you can cause a specific selective pressure for the fluorescence trait and then breed the plant for 100 million years I guess you have a shot haha
Those fish are definitely badass though
It's crazy how even though the process will take that long theoretically I can make this gene insertion in a single day with modern transformation and gene editing tools
Neil regularly says super dumb shit lol I don't subscribe to him but I see random clips of him talking sometimes and not getting things right
