The specific control of individual mode-locking states in an ultrafast laser requires knowledge about its phase space. We use a Mamyshev oscillator as a model nonlinear system to present an all-electronic manipulation and steering of nonlinear states. The targeted evolution of the states resembles genetic evolution, illustrated by the Waddington landscape.
