genotyping
Reading genetic code
Genotyping is the process of determining an organism's genetic makeup at specific locations in its DNA.
Laboratory techniques identify which gene variants a person or organism carries, useful for medical diagnosis, ancestry testing, and research: The clinic offers genotyping to assess disease risk.
Unlike full genome sequencing, genotyping examines only particular sites of interest.
