T he genetic make-up of an individual's cells. The genotype together with the biologic environment produce the phenotype, or the outward manifestations.

A pattern of genetic information that is unique to a group of organisms or viruses. Six major genotypes of HCV are found in the United States; these are numbered 1 through 6. Of these, genotype 1 is the most common in the United States and is also the most difficult to treat. Doctors may determine the genotype of hepatitis C to help decide the best treatment.

The genetic composition of a person. Usually used when considering one gene or chromosome (e.g., males have a XY genotype, females have a XX).
Helpful?           0
Your genetic potential when born. Physically and psychologically. Someone may be born with the physical genotype to play football for his or her country. Someone may be born with a genetic potential to develop depression. Whether they do so depends on environment. See phenotype.
Helpful?           0
The specific allelic constitution of an organism including alleles not expressed at the phenotypic level. Often, the allelic composition of one or few genes under investigation.
Helpful?           0
A specific combination of genes that determines a character.
Helpful?           0
The actual alleles present in an individual.
Helpful?           0
The genes present in a particular organism or cell.
Helpful?           0
The entire set of specific alleles present in an organism or cell: the genetic information that (together with the environment) defines the phenotype. Often refers only to the alleles controlling a particular trait of interest.
Helpful?           0
The total genetic characteristics of a cell. The genetic material inherited from parents; not all of it is necessarily expressed in the individual.

describes the specific alleles or combination of alleles in a person's genome.
Helpful?           0
Term referring to one's genetic make-up.
Helpful?           0
Genetic expression of an organism. A pair of genes at a locus on a chromosome. Contrast with phenotype.

Helpful?           0
the sequence of the genetic information encoding the protein responsible for the phenotype.
Helpful?           0
for most of the viruses in this archive the "genotype" is defined indirectly by the antigenic phenotype of the virus - the HA and NA proteins. Where further information is available - either by identification directly or indirectly of the genes for the internal or M1 proteins - it is specifically given, or the method of genotyping, e.g., PAGE, is given. - high yield HA mutants specifically of contemporary swine H1N1 influenza viruses related to single base changes in the HA gene.
Helpful?           0
the particular sequence of nucleotides in the genes of an organism
Helpful?           0
(not nomenclatural) a circumscribed gene pool.
Helpful?           0
An organism’s genetic information, considered as a whole.
Helpful?           0
the hereditary potential of an organism forms the genotype;it is a theoretical unit because the physical unit that exists (the phenotype) is the result of the interaction of the genotype and the environment. a single strain or species on which a genus is founded. This usage (by nomenclators) is one to be avoided.
Helpful?           0
The type of RNA in a biological sample as described by the DNA sequence, e.g. using Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) or microsatellite markers.

Organism's genetic composition, see also Phenotype
Helpful?           0
An individual’s genetic complement, which determines the individual’s phenotype.
Helpful?           0
Usually considered the sum of all possible genetic input the animal is holding. This is the "internally coded, inheritable information" carried by all living organisms. This stored information is used as a "blueprint" or set of instructions for building and maintaining a living creature. These instructions are found within almost all cells and are copied at the time of cell division or reproduction and are passed ("inherited") from one generation to the next.
Helpful?           0
The entire genetic identity of an individual, including alleles, or gene forms, that do not show as outward c haracteristics.
Helpful?           0
The "type" of gene or genetic marker an individual has at a specific location in his or her genome. A genotype consists of 2 alleles since chromosomes come in pairs. However, a genotype on either of the male sex chromosomes (X or Y) consists of a single allele.

Helpful?           0
The characteristics a person inherits and will pass on to his/her descendants.
Helpful?           0
Genetic information for an individual (vs. "phenotype," which corresponds to the clinical characteristics ). Genotype is the information about the gene form itself.
Helpful?           0
The constitution of the cell or DNA
Helpful?           0
The genetic make-up of a person.
Helpful?           0
The full set of genes carried by an individual, whether expressed or silent alleles. Similar to genome. Compare to phenotype. What makes living matter so different from other self-organizing systems is that a cell has an information center, the genes, concerned with orchestrating the many different processes going on within the cell, and in such a manner that copies of the cell tend to survive.
Helpful?           0
all the genes of an organism that allow expression of genetic potential. However, the genotype may not always be expressed in the physical appearance (phenotype).

Helpful?           0
the particular set of genes found within an organism.
