  • What is the difference between the core and pan genomes of a given species?
Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
What is the difference between the core genome and pan-genome? What might you infer if you compare two genera, one in which the size of the core genome and pan-genome are very similar, and one in which the core genome is much smaller than the pan-genome?
What provides a convenient bridge between the low resolution of a karyotype and the ultra-high resolution of a complete genomic sequence?
What are some reasons why, in multicellular eukaryotes, genome size is not necessarily related to number of protein-coding genes or organismal complexity?
