Cool! Would like to hear your lecture.
My understanding is:
POLYPLOIDS = extra chromosomes in every cell. Cuts taken from anywhere on the plant will be the same. Happens at the first cell split so all cells end up this way. True genetic freaks and wonderful plants to work with.
MIXIPLOIDS = extra chromosomes in some cells but not all - a plant can have cells that are diploid, triploid, tetraploid, etc all on the same plant. Taking cuts can give you different plants. Also true genetic freak - usually happens when seedlings are treated with colchicine and not all cells split correctly (man-made Franken-bud).
POLYMORPHISM = problems/changes with specific alleles that cause phenotypes (like blue eyes and green eyes). Both have the same genes for "Blue Eyes" but small changes at that allele site cause blue to become green.
So GREEN is a variant of "Blue Eyes".
And HAZEL is a variant of "Brown Eyes".
This has nothing to do with the number of chromosomes though.
ya thats a good example, and when genetic guys ask questions for their lab stuff it helps us to assist in identify monomorphasim and polymorphs out in the field.
tri and Polyploid s,
Linked traits in alloploids
With the good traits also comes bad traits, and in some cases all good traits but rare. The more reports I read i Know there are many examples of Linked Traits, (some sex linked traits, (effecting males or females)) in polypoidy organisms. Not good for straight up cannabis breeding 70% - 90%. in other word clones of clones could be susceptible to pathogens.
your dealing with a different species (with your cannabis polyploidy's) you have a clone of my speciation experiment, cannabinus, I'm looking for a polypoidy cannabinus,,, watch these videos and you'll get an idea of what we're trying to pull off ... and always make sure to breed to those ((cannabinus x your cannabis polypoidy)) keep experimenting. Ive tried fimming both flowers and some chemicals . I want seeds and cuts plszzzzzzzzzzzzz if you have any success.. You have my most rare plant, cannabinus diploid.
Fertile vs infertile - seed term (inert)
We can tell the geneticist by finding our dead embryo production... member that lecture in peapods where as I compared pea-pods to cannabis buds? dead babies... we track the same in dishes and tubes.
Ever eat the sweet melons with little 100% inert seeds. Ever get those big seed but dead babies inside in almost every seed could be in the chromes ? There is a way to control that also. This can indicate that you have polypoids chromes, ppl grow the seed but male or female or both are inert so the genetics cant be duplicated.
no need to understand the (n) stuff, this video gets a little deep but a necessary primmer to see what I'm trying to pull off with my experiment cut you have... ignore all the math , just understand Odd & Even number of chromes and effects on mules and fertility like the pea-pod lecture I gave.
ppl dont look at 3 and (4 and 5 ) chromes as different species but theses 3 and 4 node plants in some cases can be mules or even /ligras sort of speak as far as extra's chromes go.
PPL breed like this if they know what there doing OR to create seedless plants and protect genetics.
I thought why duplicate this , I have extreme polymophism with my one of my breeding cannabis experiments, I have Red Gorrilla cannabis plants rite now which are good examples of this with a twist, but no need to duplicate the science.
