Benson Hill Biosystems, Inc. (PRNewsfoto/Benson Hill Biosystems) Genotyping is the process of determining differences in the genetic make-up (genotype) of an individual by using biological assays, or tests, to examine the individual’s DNA and comparing it to that of another individual or reference. It is often paired with “sequencing” – in which the base pairs that make up DNA are identified one at a time and in order – to analyze DNA.
