=Research TypesBasics=There are six research types.

==Bacteria Evolution==Bacteria Evolution is the first {{research center available in the game. time}}

Each Bacteria Evolution research type has a chance to discover one Level 1 [[Evolved Bacteria{{main page|'''Evolved Bacteria''']]. In case of unsuccessful evolution, the player will earn regular [[Resources#Bacteria|Bacteria]].title = Research Time}}

In the case of unsuccessful evolution, the amount of regular Bacteria earned equals current [[BPS]] multiplied by ==Cancelling Research==The option to cancel the research duration in seconds appears if you press and a random number in the range from 0.05 to 0.2hold on an active research action.

The ability to mutate [[Evolved Bacteria|'''Evolved Bacteria''']] is unlocked after destroying 4 [[planets]]. Mutation requires two Bacteria of equal level and always gives one Bacteria of a higher level as a reward. The rarity of the mutated Bacteria is the same as the rarity of the used Bacteria. If they are of different rarities, the mutated Bacteria will have a random rarity in the same range, so it is not possible to obtain a higher rarity Bacteria through {{mutation. Mutation is instantaneous and it requires no Scientists. However, after it is complete, the player has to clean the lab before it can be again used for mutations. Cleaning takes 2 hours and requires 2 [[File:Scientist.png|20px|link=http://wiki.bacterialtakeover.com/index.php?title=Resources#Scientists]] The default mutation cap is Level 3, which can be raised to Level 4 with '''[[the Ultimate Life Form]]''' tech at the '''[[Dark Matter Institute]]'''.  [[File:Mutation example.png|left]]===Mutation Results=== ::::::::::::When calculating the mutation results, the [[Evolved_Bacteria#Effect|'''effects''']] of Bacteria A and Bacteria B play an important role. Mutating Bacteria with similar effects gives a better chance to obtain a good result. Mutation results are calculated by taking the average values of Bacteria A and Bacteria B. Even though higher level Bacteria generally have better effect, it is possible to mutate a Bacteria with weaker bonuses, especially if A and B are of different '''rarities'''.  In most cases, Bacteria C will have the effects as either Bacteria A or Bacteria B. The exception is when C has more stats than A and B individually. The name of C is random and does not depend on Bacteria A and B.description}}
