Human and model organisms

Most biological maps and catalogs allow comparisons between human and non-human model organisms and provide information about homologous genes or corresponding processes across different organisms. Model organisms such as yeast, fruit flies, and mice are used in research as a proxy for understanding human biology because they have genes and biological processes in common with humans.

Phenomics and genotype-phenotype associations

Phenomics is the systematic study of measurable phenotypes or characteristics on a genome-wide scale. Ontologies are used for cataloging the biological roles of gene products using a common language. The characterization of the phenotype of organisms with gene mutations or gene knock outs is used to understand gene function. Both genotype and environment determine phenotype. Since not all genetic differences between individuals have an impact on phenotype, genotype-phenotype association projects aim to catalogue the genotypes that are associated with observable or measurable phenotypes such as disease or altered cell function.
