In biological species, this typically refers to ''chromosomes'', ''alleles'', and ''gene regulation systems''. In metaphysically-active species such as those descended from the [[Volamin (Genetic Architecture)]], genetic architecture includes complex systems like [[Seliotype|Seliotypes]], which are spirit-bound information matrices. | ||
Understanding a species’ genetic architecture is essential for analyzing '''reproductive compatibility''', '''hybrid viability''', '''trait expression''', and '''biocultural divergence'''. | Understanding a species’ genetic architecture is essential for analyzing '''reproductive compatibility''', '''hybrid viability''', '''trait expression''', and '''biocultural divergence'''. | ||
