The link explained all that this way..
"What’s In a Name?
At Phylos, we provide scientific tools for the cannabis industry to become more transparent, and to provide a higher level of consistency in the marketplace. We will never change grower submitted names, even in cases where they don’t align with the most commonly occurring name in the Clone Group.
Here’s why:
Although plants may be genetically identical, the way they’re grown will always impact how they look, taste, and smell. And all of this affects how they make us feel. While the genotype determines the range of possible traits that a plant may have, growth conditions determine where they’ll be on the spectrum of possibilities.
When unique growers run clones for a long time, their cut can express a different phenotype than another grower because of epigenetic changes that take place as plants adapt to their current environment.
So, DNA isn’t destiny. At least, not completely.
As submitters begin to upload information for their samples, we will begin to better understand how the differences between samples in the same Clone Group can identify the true masters among growers.
Genotype report data determined that Yerba Buena’s recently released Corazon variety is a genetically identical cut within the AC/DC Clone Group. But their farm’s unique growing practices produced some of the highest testing CBD flower in history, with unique flavor and nose.
Their story illustrates how growers can differentiate their products while still providing transparent data about their variety’s exact genotype — a leap forward in the journey to building greater consumer trust."
kind of explains what we've all been talking about a little better..
