Chapter 1508 Teacher, you are so good at saving money for me!
The chromosomes of fertilized eggs...of course cannot be detected by relying on egg whites.
Not to mention that egg white is just a bunch of protein and water that provides nutrients to the developing chick. Even the yolk wrapped in the egg white is also a tool that provides nutrients to the egg cells.
Inside the egg yolk, that little white dot that grows little by little is the egg cell, the embryo, and the existence that contains genetic factors.
Those things out there may have some chromosome fragments, so-called extranuclear staining materials, etc. But, by extracting a little bit of egg white, can we determine the genes of a chick, or any creature in the egg?
Thinking too much!
Of course, it was impossible for Gretel to explain to Elder Erwin in such detail, especially things like extranuclear chromatin. However, he also briefly explained the existence and development process of the embryo:
"...So, these outside are just nutrients and are not used. Only embryos have chromosomes. However, when the embryo is not fully developed, taking embryonic cells to measure chromosomes will cause irreparable damage to the embryo..."
"Do we have to wait until it breaks out of its shell before we test it?" Elder Erwin sighed in disappointment. Gretel looked into his eyes seriously and said nothing.
To solve this problem, he has at least two plans, but giving the answer directly is not conducive to the growth of the teacher:
Elder Erwin is at level 11. If he wants to advance to level 12, level 13, or even higher, he must think and act by himself.
When the answer is put to his mouth, he is just a worker, and the feedback he gets from the world is more than doubled.
Gretel hoped that the first teacher he had traveled through time could advance, advance, and advance again, reach the highest possible position, and stay by his side for a long time...
Fortunately, Elder Erwin himself was also working hard. He thought carefully for a while and came up with two methods:
"Then, we can start from two directions. - First, grind off a little bit of the eggshell, poke a needle from it, extract some tissue for testing, and then enhance the chromosomes in a targeted manner."
"Well, it can be done." Grete nodded quickly:
"Before, in the Land of Eagles, when we used chicken embryos to make vaccines, we used to inject them into eggs... If you grasp the timing and position correctly, the chicks will not die. For specific operating methods and precautions, you can
Ask them for information."
For example, how to fix the eggs, how to sterilize the eggs, how to sterilize the needle, which direction to choose for inserting the needle, and how to seal the damaged eggshell with wax after the injection...
Although it is a fairly simple operation, there are dozens of precautions, and every detail affects the success rate.
Although this operation should not be difficult for elders, why bother going through the same path that others have taken when there are ready-made experiences to refer to?
The world will not give you feedback one more time!
He just said it casually, but it was quite important information to Elder Erwin. The elder carefully wrote down this clue, thought about it, and sighed:
"But eggs and dragon eggs are not the same thing. I heard that dragon eggs are very hard and have a natural magic circle attached to them, which will spontaneously attract energy and help the young dragon in the eggshell grow.
Breaking the shell of the dragon egg a little may cause harm to the young dragon, so this approach may not work..."
"Whether it works or not, you have to try more." Gretel replied without thinking:
"Besides, if the shell of the dragon egg is broken a little, will there be any obstruction? This is another topic. I will go back to the dragon clan and ask... Teacher, you just said to start from two directions. The second direction is
What?"
"The second direction is to enhance the existing points. Detect the chromosomes of roosters and hens, select the same parts, and find some points for enhancement."
Grete nodded vigorously.
Since they are the same species, the chromosomes of roosters and hens will always have a large part of the same. So, among these identical chromosomes, pick a few points to strengthen, at least they will not be in the wrong direction.
"Well, this is a good idea, you can try it!" With bright eyes, he tried hard to restrain himself from the role of project leader he was accustomed to, and said in a suggestive tone:
"Teacher, I have done a lot of work on directional enhancement of chromosomes before. You can check the records. This work is not difficult, and it is not exclusive to necromancers. The key is to adjust the magic circle and increase the natural aura..."
Elder Erwin listened to him with a smile for a long time, nodding his head gently. This approach is in the right direction, but it consumes too much——
Alas, as a teacher, I haven't taught him much from beginning to end, and now I have the audacity to use his resources to strengthen myself. I just hope that I can produce results soon and help him.
Work harder!
"By the way, if that's the case, I'm afraid it won't work if I use eggs as raw materials." Elder Erwin said hesitantly:
"Chickens are not monsters after all, and their growth space is limited..."
However, if you use World of Warcraft eggs or World of Warcraft fetuses - or eggs, the fetuses are more difficult to handle, and it looks more uncomfortable to break - as a test product, the consumption of the experiment will double!
"Then let's take Warcraft eggs." Gretel made the decision without thinking:
"Teacher, just ask them to get what kind of monster eggs you want to use. If you don't know what kind you want, there are some records of local monsters here in Talling. You can try to find them."
I have whatever I want?
I want high-level Warcraft - well, high-level Warcraft is a bit too much. Can I have mid-level Warcraft?
"Teacher, feel free to choose! Remember, the Dragon Clan is the master of Dragon Island. As long as it is for the benefit of the Dragon Clan, we can have whatever we want from all the monsters here! If I can't find anything satisfactory in the records, I will contact the Dragon Clan and ask them to
They give a list!”
Elder Erwin gave Gretel a smile. The little guy had a heart for boxing, and he benefited from it a lot. However, if you can save money for your disciples, you still have to save money for them...
Well, the selected Warcraft should have a relatively high upper limit of advancement, so that when making improvements, it is less likely to be exploded;
During one breeding, it is best to lay more eggs. In this case, if there is a mistake during the experiment, it will not hurt if a few eggs are killed;
It is best to incubate quickly so that the experimental results come out quickly, and it is easier to adjust the direction if something is wrong;
Finally, of course, it would be better if we could be closer to the dragon clan...
Three days later, Gretel was surprised when he saw the experimental plan submitted by Elder Erwin. The elder chose three kinds of monsters:
Golden-threaded ink-horned frogs gather in large groups. Ordinary magic frogs are level 1 monsters. They are the leader of the group and can reach up to level 5 monsters;
Pseudodragons gather in small groups;
Dragon beast, if you don't have a dragon beast, consider looking for a high-level sub-dragon as a substitute.
Frog... frog... frog... frog egg...
There are them everywhere in the swamp. I caught a frog that lays dozens to thousands of eggs at a time...
