Summary:A computer-based method is provided for deriving a genome of an individual. The method comprises the steps of accessing a selector for an individual and a reference template for a group genome, the selector comprising a locus value and a base value; and processing the selector and the reference template to derive a sequence representative of the genome of the individual. The reference template preferably comprises data components representing a probability of occurrence of a base value. The probability of occurrence is based on base value occurrences at corresponding locus values in the group genome. The method of the present invention further comprises computing a base value from the data component in the reference template, for base values not in the selector.
