Self-Identity and Partner Selection. Another key element of genetic testing is the impact it can have on the self-identity of the person affected, often related to the life stage of the individual tested.

Identity
In comparison of nucleic acid or protein sequences, the extent to which two sequences have the same nucleotide or amino acid at equivalent positions, usually expressed as a percentage. See also similarity.
Although the identity and general properties of prions are now well-understood, the mechanism of prion infection and replication remains mysterious.

So what are the identity factors for such a species?
The most common interpretation of how to measure if something is identified as a keystone species would be to do an experiment in which you would add it or remove it from an ecosystem, ...
Incertae sedis A name of uncertain identity.

Everything from forensics for determining the identity of individuals that may have been involved in a crime, by linking their DNA pattern, their electrophoresis pattern, to one that's in a database.
Small GTPases and the phosphoinositides have emerged as the key regulators in the maintenance of the identity of the Golgi complex.
This includes establishing individual identity, trauma analysis, facial reconstruction, photographic superimposition, determination of time interval since death, and crime-scene recovery.
(i) Sequence identity between two nucleotide sequences. (ii) Genetic relatedness between two sequences of common ancestry. Commonly confused with sequence similarity.
Complementary base pair: a pair of bases in which the identity of one base defines the identity of its partner base. E.g.: In a DNA molecule there are two complementary base pairs--Adenine and thymine, and guanine and cytosine.
Genotype: The entire genetic identity of an individual, including alleles, or gene forms, that do not show as outward c haracteristics.
Guanine (G): A base; one of the molecular components of DNA and RNA. Always bonds with cytosine (G-C).
Genotype: The genetic identity of an individual. Genotype often is evident by outward characteristics.
Germline cells: Cells that contain inherited material that comes from the eggs and sperm, and that are passed on to offspring.
