Compare with Definitions
Genotype
The genotype of an organism is its complete set of genetic material. However, the term is often used to refer to a single gene or set of genes, such as the genotype for eye color.
Haplotype
A haplotype (haploid genotype) is a group of alleles in an organism that are inherited together from a single parent.Many organisms contain genetic material (DNA) which is inherited from two parents. Normally these organisms have their DNA organized in two sets of pairwise similar chromosomes.
Genotype
The genetic makeup, as distinguished from the physical appearance, of an organism or a group of organisms.
Haplotype
A set of alleles of different genes that are closely linked on one chromosome and are usually inherited as a unit.
Genotype
The combination of alleles located on homologous chromosomes that determines a specific characteristic or trait.

Haplotype
(genetics) A group of alleles that are transmitted together.
Genotype
A specific combination of alleles at one or more loci on a chromosome.
Haplotype
(genetics) To characterize with respect to haplotype
Genotype
(genetics) The part (DNA sequence) of the genetic makeup of an organism which determines a specific characteristic (phenotype) of that organism.
Genotype
A group of organisms having the same genetic constitution.
Genotype
The type species of a genus; generitype.
Genotype
(transitive) To determine the genotype of.
Genotype
A group of organisms sharing a specific genetic constitution.
Genotype
The genetic constitution of an organism, specifying the particular alleles at defined loci in the genome; - used with respect to one gene, a specific group of genes, or the entire set of genes within the organism. Contrasted with phenotype.
Genotype
A group of organisms sharing a specific genetic constitution
Genotype
The particular alleles at specified loci present in an organism
