This page is an index of the Project Gorgon genetics article series written by Kaskrim, based on 4.5+ years of independent genetics research. Articles are listed in recommended reading order.
Getting Started
- The practical side of entering Project Gorgon's breeding system. Covers timelines and expectations, the unlock path, the Genetics skill, how to read the genetics window, the coordinate system, stable slot management, and specimen naming conventions. Start here if you are new to breeding.
Genetics Basics and Inbreeding
- How Mendelian genetics work in Project Gorgon. Covers alleles, the six possible crosses, why first-generation offspring have worse stats, and why inbreeding is not just acceptable but the recommended method. Read this before attempting clarification.
Core Techniques
The Complete Guide to Genetics Clarification
- The full treatment of clarification — both blind (without Genetics skill) and sighted (with Genetics skill) methods. Covers starting a line from wild-caught parents, the upgrade-and-replace cycle, and how to confirm clarification. Prerequisite reading before fold-ins.
The Complete Guide to Gene Hunting and Fold-Ins
- How to find specific genes in wild specimens and introduce them into a clarified breeding line without losing the work already done. Covers the standard back-cross method, risk management, gene hunting locations, and hive poking.
Foundational Reference
Genome Foundations: Structure and Expression
- Core concepts that apply to all breedable species. Covers the genome grid, the coordinate system, how to read the genetics window, the three decode types (Switch, Series, Graduation), and the dual-layer concept (visual and stat expression are independent). Read this before the genome structure articles.
Genome Structure Articles
Arthropod Genome Structure (in progress)
- A chromosome-by-chromosome reference for bee and wasp breeders. Covers what each chromosome controls, decode types, wild archetype patterns for CR 1-4, the full stat gene map, confirmed stat floors, and open research questions.
Horse Genome Structure (not yet written)
- A chromosome-by-chromosome reference for horse breeders. Will cover the 48-chromosome genome, breed switches, universal vs breed-specific chromosomes, dual-stat genes, and the horse stat gene map.
Reference
Project Gorgon Genetics — Master Glossary
- Definitions of all key terms used throughout the genetics article series and in breeder conversation. Organized alphabetically.
