Genotype is the genetic make-up of an individual. This determines the hereditary characteristics of an individual from when he or she was formed through adulthood. Blood genotype of individuals are inherited from both both parents.

The word 'genotype' is different from 'phenotype'.

Genotype + Environment= Phenotype.

The Phenotype is mainly influenced by environment, while some aspects of Phenotype are determined by heredity such as eye colours. Human language is a typical example of Phenotype influenced by environment.

Right now, there are basically six types of genotype in human beings. They are:

1) AA 2) AS. 3) AC. 4)SS. 5)SC. 6)CC.

When choosing a partner, it is highly advisable for you to know your blood genotype and that of your partner. This is highly necessary, in order to avoid compatibility problems like sickle cell.

Those having genotype AA are very safe to marry individuals with any other blood genotypes; those with AS and SS are carriers of sickle cells. Below is the compatibility chart for blood genotype between partners.

The advantage of AA over AS is that, AA can marry individuals with other genotypes. But the problem AA has is that, it cannot resist malaria parasites.

The advantage of AS over AA is that, it resists malaria parasites. But its disadvantage is that, AS cannot marry any individuals except those with blood genotype of AA.
