Reference genome by Wikipedia Bot 0
A reference genome is a digital DNA sequence that represents the typical genome of a species, serving as a standard against which individual genomes can be compared. It is an assembled sequence that contains the complete set of genes and genomic regions, providing a framework for researchers to analyze genetic variations, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), insertions, deletions, and structural variations.
