Hvad betyder genotype?
Genotype er en betegnelse inden for genetik, der refererer til den genetiske sammensætning eller arvemateriale for en organisme. Det omfatter det totale sæt gener eller DNA-sekvenser, der findes i en celle eller en organisme. Genotypen bestemmer de specifikke egenskaber og træk, som en organisme kan udvikle, herunder både fysiske og biokemiske karakteristika. Mens fenotypen er den observerbare udtryk af genotypen, omfatter genotypen de genetiske variationer eller allele-forekomster, der kan påvirke fenotypen.
