	*R&D can also research a ~~wonderful~~ thing called a '''Floral Somatoray'''. It has two options: increase yield and mutate the plant. In yield more mode, every time you fire it at the plant, there is a chance the yield will increase. The chance becomes very small when you reach high levels, but it's very useful for low-yield plants. It can even raise yield from zero! In mutation mode, it will always induce a normal stat mutation.		*R&D can also research a thing called a '''Floral Somatoray'''. It has two options: increase yield and mutate the plant.
