Hi judge,
J: can you explain why you refer to "multi purpose " genome?
PB: The MPG refers to a plastic genome that suits various environments. All genetic information is already present and/or can be modified upon environmental triggers.
J: Was is proposed that it was "single purpose " before?
PB: Single purpose is hard to imagine since an organism wouldn't be able to adapt.
J: What do you imagine the purposes are?
PB: The purpose of the MPG is adaptability to changing environments.
J: Thanks
PB: No worries
BW, PB
