genotypically
In genetic terms
In a manner relating to genotype—the genetic makeup of an organism rather than its observable characteristics.
Genotypically identical twins share the same DNA, though they may differ in appearance or behavior due to environmental factors.
The term contrasts with phenotypically, which concerns outward traits: The plants were genotypically distinct but phenotypically similar.
