How to Read & Write a Genetic Map
|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'''.:{| class="wikitable"| '''Notation'''| '''Meaning'''|-|CR7A4B2D1|The 4th gene in Chromosome 7 Group A, The 2nd gene in group B, and the 1st gene in Group D.|-|CR2C23|The 2nd and 3rd genes in Chromosome 2 Group C.|-|CR5A1-4|All four genes in Chromosome 5 Group A.|}Gene notation allows for genes to be marked as '''Dominant''', '''Recessive''', or '''Mixed'''. [[Animal Handling|Animal Handlers]] tend to use their preferred [[Genetics/Basics#Terminology|notation style]] for this purpose.:{| class="wikitable"| '''Notation'''| '''Meaning'''|-|CR5A3R or CR5A3o|The 3rd gene in Chromosome 5 Group A is recessive.|-|CR5A3R4D or CR5A3o4X|The 3rd gene in Chromosome 5 Group A is recessive and the 4th gene is Dominant. |}Entire '''Chromosome''' rows can also be written using gene notation.:{| class="wikitable"| '''Notation'''| '''Meaning'''|-|CR1A1x2R34xxB1R2D3x4RC1D2R3x4R|A list of Dominant, Mixed, and Recessive genes in Chromosome 1 using text-file style notation.|}Listing a handful of genes in the same '''Chromosome''' row can quickly become complicated to read, so they are usually written in full using '''Dominant''', '''Recessive''', or '''Mixed''' symbols instead. This is generally written in either ''text-file notation'' or ''player notation''.:{| class="wikitable"| '''Notation'''| '''Meaning'''|-|CR1xRxx RDxR DRxR DRRR RRxD RDRD RRDD RDDR DDDD Rxxx|A complete Chromosome row written using text-file style notation.|}
CR7A4B2D1: The 4th gene in Chromosome 7 Group A, The 2nd gene in group B, and the 1st gene in Group D.CR2C23: The 2nd and 3rd genes in Chromosome 2 Group C.CR5A1-4: All four genes in Chromosome 5 Group A.Gene notation allows for genes to be marked as Dominant, Recessive, or Mixed. Animal Handlers tend to use their own symbols or the text-file symbols for this purpose.CR5A3R or CR5A3o: The 3rd gene in Chromosome 5 Group A is recessive. CR5A3R4D or CR5A3o4X: The 3rd gene in Chromosome 5 Group A is recessive and the 4th gene is Dominant. Entire Chromosome rows can also be written using gene notation.CR1A1x2R34xxB1R2D3x4RC1D2R3x4R = A list of Dominant, Mixed, and Recessive genes in Chromosome 1 using text-file style notation.Listing entire Chromosome rows can become complicated to read, so they are usually written in full instead, using text-file or player notation. CR1xRxx RDxR DRxR DRRR RRxD RDRD RRDD RDDR DDDD Rxxx: A complete Chromosome row written using text-file style notation. Putting everything together, entire genomes can be written. Below is an example of a Wasp genome using ''player notation'', then the same wasp in ''text-file notation''.:{| class="wikitable"|01 tott oXto Xoto Xooo ootX oXoX ooXX oXXo XXXX ottt |-|02 toXo ooXo ttXo ooot tXXo |-|03 oooo Xooo ottt oooo ooot tXXo XoXX otto oXXX oXto |-|04 Xtoo ooXt XXot ooXt XXXX |-|05 toot oXto oo|-|06 XXoX XXXX Xt|-|07 XXXX XtXX oXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX |-|08 XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX |-|09 XXXX XXXX XXoo Xott oooo |-|10 oXto ooto Xooo XX|}:{| class="wikitable"|01= xRxx RDxR DRxR DRRR RRxD RDRD RRDD RDDR DDDD Rxxx |-|02= xRDR RRDR xxDR RRRx xDDR |-|03= RRRR DRRR Rxxx RRRR RRRx xDDR DRDD RxxR RDDD RDxR |-|04= DxRR RRDx DDRx RRDx DDDD |-|05= xRRx RDxR RR|-|06= DDRD DDDD Dx|-|07= DDDD DxDD RDDD DDDD DDDD DDDD DDDD DDDD DDDD DDDD |-|08= DDDD DDDD DDDD DDDD DDDD DDDD |-|09= DDDD DDDD DDRR DRxx RRRR |-|10= RDxR RRxR DRRR DD|}
