Genomics is a scientific discipline of mapping, sequencing and analysing the genome-the complete set of chromosomal and extra-chromosomal genes of an
organism. Structural genomics deals with DNA sequencing, sequence assembly, construction of genetic, physical or sequence maps of high resolution of the organism.
Functional Genomics deals with reconstructing genome sequences and to find out the functions they do. It provides novel information about the genome. It helps in understanding of genes and functions of proteins and protein interactions.
