What actions result in gaining DNA?
DNA in Plague Inc is used as a resource for purchasing additional mutations. Throughout the game I have noticed that various actions (like devolving on normal difficulty or popping bubbles) result in gaining DNA but I have also noticed that there seem to be other non-obvious actions that result in gaining some additional DNA (like infecting or killing X number of people per day).
What actions result in gaining DNA and does difficulty level have any effect on these values (like it does with devolving)?
Best Answer
Ways to get DNA:
Red bubbles (DNA depends on disease type, for bacteria it's always 1, unless you have metabolic jump)
Orange bubbles (DNA depends on disease type, for bacteria it's 1-3, unless you have cytochrome surge)
Cure bubbles (Only if you have catalytic switch)
Devolving (1-2 DNA, depending on cost of trait, this is increased if you have ionised helix, this works for virus and nano-virus on normal and casual only if you have Transletion +, doesn't work for simian flu, necroa, neurax worm and certain scenarios)
Ape camps (only in simian flu)
Destroying a country (only in necroa virus)
Using a Trojan plane (Only in neurax worm)
Infecting people (Throughout)
Killing/affecting people (Only after 1 billion deaths and stops after 6.5 billion deaths) Hope this helps!

What are 3 factors that can cause DNA mutations?
Mutations are caused by environmental factors known as mutagens. Types of mutagens include radiation, chemicals, and infectious agents. Mutations may be spontaneous in nature.What triggers DNA?
During initiation, so-called initiator proteins bind to the replication origin, a base-pair sequence of nucleotides known as oriC. This binding triggers events that unwind the DNA double helix into two single-stranded DNA molecules.What can influence DNA?
Environmental factors such as food, drugs, or exposure to toxins can cause epigenetic changes by altering the way molecules bind to DNA or changing the structure of proteins that DNA wraps around.What causes DNA amplification?
Although gene amplification is frequently observed in cancer and other degenerative disorders, the molecular mechanisms involved in the process of DNA copy number increase remain largely unknown. We hypothesized that small DNA fragments could be the trigger of DNA amplification events.Dirty DNA is Okay - Sometimes! Obtaining Rapid PCR/RT-PCR Results from Diverse Sample Types

Answer 2
I think orange bubbles come twice per country for sure. The first is from the initially infected person in that country and the second bubble comes from infecting all. It does seem that other orange bubbles pop up for reasons I haven't pinned down though. Sorry this isn't a full answer but it seems to be on target.
