82 Terms used in Bionomenclature generic designation: a name referring to any multiplicity of objects having one or more properties in common which distinguishes it from other groups of objects; a name itself. generic name: (prok., bot., cult. pl., vir., zool.) (1) a scientific name of a taxon of the rank of genus. (2) (zool.) the first name of a trinomial; see genus-group name. generic: of taxonomic units, ones pertaining to a genus. generitype: (1) (unoff.) the type of a generic name, i.e. the type species. (2) (zool.) a genotype (q.v.). generotype: (zool., unoff.) the type species of a genus; see genotype. genet: (1) (bot., mycol.) a genetically different individual or clonal population, distinguished by its genetic make-up; see ramet. (2) (zool., not bionomenclatural) a mammal of the mongoose and civet family. Genetic resource centre, [GRC]: a collection of permanently preserved viable material, such as cultures of cell lines, fungi, other microorganisms, DNA samples, or seeds; a biological resource centre (q.v.); see also culture collection, seed bank., genetically modified organism, [GMO]: an organism with new characters following the implantation of alien genetic material. genetotype: (bot., not nomenclatural) proposed for sets of individuals showing similar characters with a genetic basis and distributed more or less at random within the geographical range of a species or subspecies; see also genetovar. genetovar.: (bot., unoff., obsol.) proposed for use in the nomenclatural citation of a genetotype (q.v.). genoholotype: (1) (zool., unoff.) a single species specified by the author of a genus name as the generic type. (2) (zool., unoff.) a figure that is regarded as the type of a genus-group name. (3) (zool., unoff.) the species on which a monotypic genus is founded. genoisotype: (zool., unoff.) a genotype with an isotype genolectotype: (zool., unoff.) the type of a genus selected subsequent to the original description from a series of species originally placed in the
83 The naming of organisms (and plant communities) genus, i.e. one chosen from a series of syntypes; a type species by subsequent designation; see also lectotype. genome: (1) (not nomenclatural), the full complement of inheritable genetic material of an organism encoded in the DNA (or in some cases RNA). (2) (vir.) the polynucleotide molecule or molecules which contain(s) the information needed for productive replication on a virus in nature. genomorph: (1) a polyphyletic taxon at the rank of genus or subgenus which contains superficially similar, but not closely related, taxa. (2) (palaeo.) a species that differs from the type species of the genus as a consequence of evolutionary changes over an extended period of time. genomospecies: (prok., not nomenclatural), a species defined by DNA relatedness, whether named or not; a genospecies (q.v.) genomotype: (prok., not nomenclatural), a particular genetic make-up of an individual or taxon; see also genotype. genomovar: (prok., not nomenclatural): genomic groups of a genomospecies (q.v.). genoneotype: (zool., unoff.) a genotype with a neotype. genonym, [geneonym] : (zool., unoff.) the name of a genus. genoparatype: (zool., unoff.) a genotype with a paratype. genoplesiotype: (zool., unoff.) used to replace plesiotype (q.v.) when employed at generic rank. genospecies: (1) (zool., unoff.) interbreeding populations of interfertile morphs contributing to a common gene pool. (2) (prok., unoff.) a group of strains amongst which genetic exchange occurs. See also genomospecies. genosyntype: (zool., unoff.) one of a series of species on which a genus was established, where none was designated as the type by the author. genotype: (1) (not nomenclatural) the total genetic make-up of an individual, organism or taxon, regardless of its outward appearance; see also phenotype. (2) (zool., obsol.) the specimen on which a
