Genomics is the study of genomes — the work of reading, comparing, and trying to understand the full set of genes in living things. Genetics is the older, wider study of how traits pass down; genomics is the newer “whole book” version that grew when machines could read huge stretches of DNA at once.
Genomics is the study of genomesGenomics是研究genome基因體的學問 — the work of reading, comparing, and trying to understand the full set of genes in living things也就是閱讀、比較,並試著了解生物體內全部基因的工作。Genetics is the older, wider study of how traits pass downGenetics遺傳學是比較舊、比較廣的學問,研究性狀怎麼傳下去; genomics is the newer "whole book" version that grew when machines could read huge stretches of DNA at oncegenomics則是比較新的「整本書」版本,是機器能一次讀完大段DNA之後才發展出來的。
It is a university, lab, and industry word — you will see it as a subject name, like physics.
It is a university, lab, and industry word這是大學、實驗室和業界用的詞 — you will see it as a subject name你會看到它當成一門學科的名稱, like physics就像physics物理一樣。
Though actually, the line is a bit messy: many people still say genetics for work that is really genomics, and -omics has become a fashion ending for other “whole-set” studies too.
Though actually不過其實, the line is a bit messy這條界線有點模糊: many people still say genetics for work that is really genomics很多人明明做的是genomics的工作,還是會說成genetics, and -omics has become a fashion ending for other "whole-set" studies too而且-omics這個字尾也變成一種流行結尾,被用在其他「整套」研究上。
The core of this word stays the genome.
The core of this word stays這個字的核心一直都是 the genomegenome基因體。
組成From genome + -ics (“the study of”), or from gene + -omics. That -ics is the same kind of ending as in physics or genetics.
