What is a Genotype?

The term ‘genotype’ and its definition were introduced to the world by a Danish Botanist called Wilhelm Johannsen in 1903. A genotype is the genetic makeup of an organism or group of organisms with reference to a single trait, set of traits, or an entire complex of traits; it is one of the factors that determine the phenotype of humans. There are also inherited and non-inherited epigenetic factors that decide the fate of gene cells and determine the phenotype.

The genotype is a hidden genetic sequence inherited by people. Genotype is a code for phenotype, but a lot of people do not understand the difference between them. It is pretty simple – you can easily see and observe the phenotypes of a person while the genotype can only be determined by medical tests.

What is a Genotype?

Genotypes provide information about the genes of a person which could be recessive or dominant. The stronger genotype has more dominant genes.

Characteristics of GenotypeThe example of genotypes are the genes responsible for:

  • Height;
  • Eye color;
  • Hair color;
  • Certain diseases;
  • The sound of your voice;
  • Certain behaviors;
  • Size of ears, arms, legs;The genotype of humans determines their phenotype! The main characteristic of any phenotype is its visibility. You can see the phenotype of any person with your own eyes. Some examples include:
  • Height;
  • Eye color;
  • Hair color;
  • Certain types of disease;
  • Certain types of behaviors.

As you can see, the characteristics of phenotypes and genotypes similar, but there is still some differences! The genotype is determined by the quality of genes, these qualities could be dominant or recessive. Therefore, the more dominant genes you have, the stronger your genotype.
