I got my firefly petunias from light.bio around a month or so ago and they’re now just starting to take off. This picture was taken in a dark room with no windows, though I’m sure the phone brightened it up a bit. They aren’t as bright as I was imagining, but I still find them neat.

      In each seed this gene would segregate some wouldn’t express at all, some lower and if you did it more times more than likely the mutation would be lost

          If the trait or edit is homozygous and you self pollinate the plant the trait will not be segregated out. If it is heterozygous you will get a mix.

          When transforming plants you can get hetero or homozygous edits both. I am unsure the genotype of the firefly petunias though.

          So if the edit is homozygous it is known as a pure line.

      I think the concern is more about cross-pollination, not seeds from the plant directly
