The birth of the term "genomics" was documented as follows: "For the newly developing discipline of mapping/sequencing (including analysis of the information) we have adopted the term GENOMICS. We are indebted to T. H. Roderick of the Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, Maine, for suggesting the term. The new discipline is born from a marriage of molecular and cell biology with classical genetics and is fostered by computational science." <ref>Victor A. McKusick and Frank H. Ruddle.

Definition of Genomics:
the branch of molecular genetics concerned with the study of genomes, specifically the identification and sequencing of their constituent genes and the application of this knowledge in medicine, pharmacy, agriculture, etc[1]
Genomics includes:
This is the common definition for Genomics, other definitions can be discussed in the article
