=ModifiersBasics=Most research actions are influenced by the [[Reduced Research Time|reduced research time]] modifier, which is obtained from various [[Dark Matter Institute]] technologies and equipped [[Evolved Bacteria]].
Other bonuses and modifiers are usually specific to a particular research type, such as [[Sleeper Agents]], which increase the max limit of [[Planetary ==Research

Planet 9]].Bacteria Irradiation is unlocked only after 5 planets past The option to cancel the
first [[Black Hole]]. ==Bacteria Evolution==Bacteria Evolution is the first research
center available in the game. Each Bacteria Evolution appears if you press and hold on an active research
type has a chance to discover one Level 1 [[Evolved Bacteria|'''Evolved Bacteria'''action]]
. In case of unsuccessful evolution, the player will earn regular [[Resources#Bacteria|Bacteria]]. In the case of unsuccessful evolution, the amount of regular Bacteria earned equals current [[BPS]] multiplied by the research duration in seconds and a random number in the range from 0.05 to 0.2. Only one type of Bacteria Evolution can be researched at a time. <div class="

==Bacteria MutationsCancelling Research==The ability option to mutate [[Evolved Bacteria|'''Evolved Bacteria''']] is unlocked after destroying 4 [[planets]]cancel the research appears if you press and hold on an active research action.
Mutation requires two Bacteria of equal level and always gives one Bacteria of Cancelling a higher level as a reward. The rarity of research action will cause all the mutated Bacteria is progress go to waste and return the same as [[Scientists]] to 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 mutationplayer.
Mutation is instantaneous and it requires no Scientists. However=Research Types=There are seven research types, after it is completeall of which are unlocked by [[Xutrutis|Planet 9]], the player has to clean the lab before it can be again used for mutations. Cleaning takes 2 hours and requires 2 only exception being [[File:Scientist.pngResearch#Bacteria Irradiation|20px|link=http://wiki.bacterialtakeover.com/index.php?title=Resources#ScientistsBacteria Irradiation]].
The default mutation cap Bacteria Irradiation is Level 3, which can be raised to Level 4 with '''[[the Ultimate Life Form]]''' tech at unlocked only after 5 planets past the '''first [[Dark Matter InstituteBlack Hole]]'''.

::::::::::::When calculating the mutation results, the [[Evolved_Bacteria#Effect|'''effectsMain page:'''[[Bacteria Evolution]] of Bacteria A and Bacteria B play an important role.
Mutating ==Bacteria with similar effects gives a better chance to obtain a good result.Engineering=={{Bacteria Engineering}}
Mutation results are calculated by taking the average values of Bacteria A and Bacteria B, so Bacteria with better effects usually give better results.{{bacteria engineering options}}
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 '''raritiesMain page:'''. [[Bacteria Engineering]]
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.Mutations=={{mutation description}}
