Usage: biology; formal
2. Produced by or involving the same genetic material or ancestry.
Usage: genetics; technical

Examples

• The homogenetic structures of bat wings and human arms suggest a shared evolutionary ancestor.
• Scientists studied homogenetic populations to understand genetic variation within species.
• The homogenetic origin of these organs is evident from their similar bone structure.
• Homogenetic organisms often share more genetic similarities than distantly related species.
• The research focused on homogenetic lineages to trace evolutionary pathways.
