Scope note: Conjunto de características únicas del ADN de un organismo individual o de una población determinado mediante el análisis de pequeñas muestras de material biológico tal como tejidos o líquidos corporales, que se usa especialmente en el contexto de la predicción de la susceptibilidad a una enfermedad particular. Por ejemplo, algunas poblaciones tienen perfiles genéticos identificables que les confieren un riesgo mayor de cáncer. No debe confundirse con TRASFONDO GENÉTICO ni con VARIACIÓN GENÉTICA.
