A quick definition of genotype:

Genotype: The genetic code or blueprint that determines the traits and characteristics of a living organism. It's like a set of instructions that tells the organism how to look, behave, and function. When we talk about genotype, we're referring to the DNA that makes up an organism's genes. This is different from phenotype, which refers to the physical traits and characteristics that we can observe. For example, a person's genotype might determine that they have blue eyes, but their phenotype is the actual blue color that we can see.

A more thorough explanation:

GENOTYPE

The genetic makeup of a living organism. This refers to the specific combination of genes that an organism inherits from its parents.

For example, if we look at humans, the genotype determines traits such as eye color, hair color, and height. These traits are determined by the genes that are passed down from parents to their offspring.

When it comes to patents on living matter, the genotype must be disclosed rather than just describing the physical characteristics or behavior of the organism. This is because the genotype is what makes the organism unique and determines its traits.

For instance, if a company wants to patent a genetically modified crop, they must disclose the specific genes that have been altered in the plant's genotype.

Overall, the genotype is an essential aspect of an organism's biology and plays a crucial role in determining its physical characteristics and traits.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)

Give it 4 more weeks at least. Everyone in this chat needs to wait longer.
