How this code is choosing crossover probability? I cannot find any option in configuration file. How to set this probability? I have gone through config description file also https://neat-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config_file.html and there is no such option.

There do not appear to be any configuration options related to crossover. Looking at DefaultReproduction.reproduce it appears that when new genomes are needed two random parents are selected for crossover. After the crossover any potential mutation would happen and then the new genome is added to the population.
