// Definition
The process of determining the complete DNA sequence of the cannabis genome, enabling identification of genes responsible for specific traits like cannabinoid production, terpene profiles, and stress responses. Multiple companies have independently sequenced different cannabis genomes.
// From the Episode
Chimera discussed the state of cannabis genomics, explaining that while companies are doing basic sequencing using advanced modern techniques, they are far from tying gene data to phenotype or chemotype data. Genetics companies cannot legally grow plants to correlate gene data with observable traits. The Genome Project concept would allow identifying which genes are responsible for drought tolerance, cannabinoid production, and other plant functions.
