The Variome is the whole set of genetic variations found in populations of species that have gone through a relatively short evolution change.

Posted by Healthy And Fit on May 18th, 2009
DNA strand 1 differs from DNA strand 2 at a single base-pair location (a C/T polymorphism).
A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP, pronounced snip) is a DNA sequence variation occurring when a single nucleotide – A, T, C, or G – in the genome (or other shared sequence) differs between members of a species (or between paired chromosomes in an individual).
