Genomics :

Definition -  Total number of genes parents on 
haploid set of chromosome including gene present on DNA chloroplast and mitochondria is called genome. 
Genomics is defined as the study of genes and their functions, and related techniques.

Thomas Rodrick in 1986 frist used the term genomics and describe it's as scientific decipline of mapping, sequencing and analyzing the genome. 
Genomics includes the scientific study of complex diseases such as heart disease, asthma, diabetes, and cancer because these diseases are typically caused more by a combination of genetic and environmental factors than by individual genes.

Type of genomics :
Genomics is divided into two basic areas: structural genomics, characterizing the physical nature of whole genomes; and functional genomics, characterizing the transcriptome (the entire range of transcripts produced by a given organism) and the proteome (the entire array of encoded proteins).
