| Definitions |
1. A genomic genotype is a short-hand specification of a genome that uses a representational syntax comprised of information about a reference genome ('genomic background'), and all specific variants from this reference (the 'genomic variation complement'). Conceptually, this variant genome sequence can be resolved by substituting all sequences specified by the 'genomic variation complement' for the corresponding sequences in the reference 'genomic background' sequence. 2. 'Heritable' genomic sequence is that which is passed on to subsequent generations of cells/organisms, and includes all chromosomal sequences, the mitochondrial genome, and any transmissable extrachromosomal replicons. |

Genotype vs Genome in GENO: An (intrinsic) genotype is an information artifact representing an indirect syntax for specifying a genome sequence. This syntax has reference and variant components - a 'background genotype' and 'genomic variation complement' - that must be operated on to resolve a specifie genome sequence. Specifically, the genome sequence is resolved by substituting all sequences specified by the 'genomic variation complement' for the corresponding sequences in the 'reference genome'. So, while the total sequence content represented in a genotype may be greater than that in a genome, the intended resolution of these sequences is to arrive at a single genome sequence. It is this end-point that we consider when holding that a genotype 'specifies' a genome. |
