<h2><span id="Origin_of_Term" class="mw-headline"><font color="#000000">Origin of Term</font></span></h2>
<p><font color="#000000">The term was adapted in 1920 by Hans Winkler, Professor of Botany at the University of Hamburg, Germany. In Greek, the word <em>genome</em> (γίνομαι) means I become, I am born, to come into being. The Oxford English Dictionary suggests the name to be a blend of the words <em><strong>gen</strong>e</em> and <em>chromos<strong>ome</strong></em>. A few related <em>-ome</em> words already existed, such as <em>biome</em> and <em>rhizome</em>, forming a vocabulary into which <em>genome</em> fits systematically.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><font size="2"><span>[</span>2<span>]</span></font></sup></font></p>
