Maybe I've made some mistake, but with g1, g2, etc. I mean instances of Gene, i.e.: Gene is the class of genes, g1,2,3 belong to the set of all genes (and they're members of Set1 too). If you instead refer to the difference between: - g1, intended as all the DNA fragments that have the sequence identified by the name g1 - the particular population whose members are all instances of g1 (all have the same sequence) I am considering the first case and considering "g1" as an individual, since I don't need further levels of details. -- =============================================================================== Marco Brandizi <brandizi@ebi.ac.uk> http://gca.btbs.unimib.it/brandizi
