The approach ideally required sequencing 30 billions units of DNA - 10 times that in a single genome.

The coat's dimensions are flexible though and the number of p8 copies adjusts to accommodate the size of the single stranded genome it packages.

A single human genome has some three billion bits of information but the human species also has many variations.

In the species with a single genome, at the 5' end a protein is covalently linked (the Vg protein).

Hepadnaviruses have very small genomes of partially double-stranded, partially single stranded circular DNA.

More than one CRISPR subtype may occur in a single genome.

All Tombusviridae have a single linear genome, with the exception of Dianthoviruses, whose genome is in two parts.

A duplicated gene newly arisen in a single genome must overcome substantial hurdles before it can be observed in evolutionary comparisons.

Genome size is the total amount of DNA contained within one copy of a single genome.

The $3 billion human genome project provided the sequence of a single genome but did not catalog the variations that are thought to underlie many common diseases.
