Genome - Wikipedia
An image of the 46 chromosomes making up the diploid genome of a human male (the mitochondrial chromosomes are not shown). A genome is all the genetic information of an organism. [1] It consists of nucleotide sequences of DNA (or RNA in RNA viruses).

Genome
The genome is the entire set of DNA instructions found in a cell. In humans, the genome consists of 23 pairs of chromosomes located in the cell’s nucleus, as well as a small chromosome in the cell’s mitochondria. A genome contains all the information needed for an individual to develop and function.

What is a genome? | Definition of a genome
A genome is an organism’s complete set of genetic instructions. Each genome contains all of the information needed to build that organism and allow it to grow and develop.

Genome - Definition and Examples - Biology Online Dictionary
As defined in biology, a genome is a complete set of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) within a living cell. The human cell generally contains up to 3 billion base pairs of DNA, which makes the genome. Other viruses have their genetic material in the form of ribonucleic acid (RNA).

National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI)
The Human Genome Project, which had as its primary goal the sequencing of the 3 billion DNA letters that make up the human genetic instruction book, was successfully completed in April 2003. Since completion of the Human Genome Project, NHGRI has funded and conducted research to uncover the role that the genome plays in human health and disease.

Genome - New World Encyclopedia
Genome is one complete set of hereditary information that characterizes an organism, as encoded in the DNA (or, for some viruses, RNA).

What is genome? - Genetic Education
“Entire DNA present in a cell of an organism is called a genome which inherited information from one generation to another and regulates gene expression.” Or in simple language, we can say, “A genome is an information storage and distribution unit having all the information on how the organism will grow and develop.”

What Is a Genome? | PLOS Genetics
The genome is often described as the information repository of an organism. Whether millions or billions of letters of DNA, its transmission across generations confers the principal medium for inheritance of organismal traits. Several emerging areas of research demonstrate that this definition is an oversimplification.
