Preferred term

genotype  

Definition

  • A genotype is the specific genetic constitution or makeup (genome) of an individual in terms of its DNA. The DNA through the genotype determines the hereditary potentials and also the limitations of an individual person (or indeed that of any organism) from its embryonic formation through to adulthood. For organisms that reproduce sexually, the inherited genotype contains the entire complex set of genes from both parents. [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Health; Genotype]
