Definition of genome in English: genomenoun ˈdʒiːnəʊmˈdʒiˌnoʊm mass nounBiology 1The haploid set of chromosomes in a gamete or microorganism, or in each cell of a multicellular organism. Example sentencesExamples - No suppressor mutations were isolated from a screen of 104,000 haploid genomes.
- The two haploid genomes of the two gametes are then combined to constitute a new individual.
- Throughout this article we assume no heteroplasmy of organelle genomes in gametes.
- The gymnosperms are characterized by large genomes and relatively low chromosome numbers; polyploidy is rare.
- However, large chromosome blocks showed good colinearity between the two genomes.
- 1.1 The complete set of genes or genetic material present in a cell or organism.
Example sentencesExamples - While HIV is good at adding genes to cells' genomes, it does not target lung epithelial cells.
- The genomes of mammals include genes that have been duplicated throughout evolutionary history.
- This number can be compared with the 40,000 genes thought to be present in the human genome.
- There are four types of changes that may affect the order of the genes on the bacterial genome.
- The process is repeated using every gene within every genome as the starting gene.
