GENETIC_METADATA

Python object: phenotypic.schema._experimental_tags._genetic.GENETIC_METADATA

Recommended Metadata_* tags describing the organism and its genetics.

These name the genetic identity of the colonies on a plate (species, strain, genotype, markers). Like all experimental-tag enums they share the Metadata_ namespace, so members render as Metadata_<Label> (e.g. Metadata_Strain) and slot directly into the --metadata CSV join and the post/ metadata operations. This is a recommended vocabulary, not a validator: arbitrary metadata columns are still accepted.

Category: Metadata

Column label	Description
Metadata_Organism	Species or organism name (e.g. Saccharomyces cerevisiae).
Metadata_Strain	Strain name or identifier (e.g. BY4741).
Metadata_Genotype	Genotype description of the strain.
Metadata_Background	Genetic background or parent strain.
Metadata_Allele	Specific allele or mutation under study.
Metadata_Plasmid	Plasmid carried by the sample.
Metadata_SelectionMarker	Selectable marker gene (e.g. URA3, KanMX).
Metadata_MatingType	Mating type for yeast (e.g. MATa, MATalpha).
Metadata_Ploidy	Ploidy of the organism (e.g. haploid, diploid).
