'''Mixed''' genes: '''Mixed''' genes are genes which <do this>. '''Mixed''' genes have a '''Dominant''' and a '''Recessive''' half. '''Mixed''' genes usually behave like '''Dominant''' genes for purposes of influencing attributes of a creature.
* '''Mixed''' genes are notated by <target symbol> ''in-game'', a <x> in ''text-file notation'', or a <t> when using ''player notation''.
===== Chromosomes Identification =====To aid communication between [[Animal Husbandry]] players, a system of genetic notation is used which identifies a gene or group of genes through '''Chromosome''' (row) and '''Group''' (column) positions. 
'''Chromosome''': A term used to describe a row of genes. Arthropods have 10 '''Chromosome''' rows.
=== How to Read & Write a Genetic Map===
To aid communication between [[Animal Husbandry]] players, a system of genetic notation is used which identifies a gene or group of genes through '''Chromosome''' (row) and '''Group''' (column) positions. The maximum number of genes a creature using the [[Genetics]] system may have is 400. The following These examples are all based on [[Arthropod Genetics]], which only uses 238 genes. :{| class="wikitable"| '''Notation'''| '''Meaning'''|-| CR1A4: | The identified gene is the 4th gene in Chromosome 1, Group A.|-|CR6C2: |The identified gene is the 2nd gene in Chromosome 6, Group C. |}
This system is expanded to identify multiple genes in the same Chromosome or in the same Chromosome Group.
