| Feb 15, 2023 at 23:33 | comment | added | Maximilian Press | @RonSnow I don't know how you would make it "vary through time", but one standard practice for representing human genomes is to have a "reference" genome with some set of sequences for each chromosome, and then to represent individual peoples' genomes only by how they vary from that reference. This simplifies genome analysis somewhat, though it has its own set of issues. It seems like it might be similar to what you mean? | |
| Feb 15, 2023 at 22:02 | comment | added | Ron Snow | Thank you for your answer. This makes more sense. Suppose that I have genome sequences of different people in NYC (who are likely not family members). Would it be fair to treat their collection of genomes as a single genome that varies through time? I know this is odd, but just curious! | |
