Merci Catherine
Eliza Hall Jul 30, 2020:
Links that back up my sense that "chromosome-wide" means "across the whole chromosome, as opposed to locally at the level of a specific gene":

"Thus, the complex may act in a chromosome-wide manner, rather than on a gene-by-gene basis." Heard & Carrel, Coping with sex chromosome imbalance. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4943316/

"A key feature of our method is that it provides a global chromosome-wide nominal control level to clustering, as opposed to previous methods based on local criteria." Silva et al., Identification of chromosomal translocation hotspots via scanstatistics. https://watermark.silverchair.com/btu351.pdf

Peer comment(s):

disagree Eliza Hall : "X-wide" usually does not mean "as wide as X." Normally it means "all over/across/throughout X" (nationwide, system-wide, etc.).

En tenant compte du commentaire de @Elisa Hall, "chromosome entier" pourrait être plus approprié.
Example sentence:

Anomalies génétiques à l'échelle des chromosomes

Des chercheurs de l’Inra, en association avec des équipes chinoises, américaines et italiennes, ont séquencé et assemblé à l’échelle chromosomique le génome du papillon ravageur carpocapse.

disagree Eliza Hall : I understand "chromosome-wide" to mean "across the whole chromosome," as opposed to locally, at the level of a specific gene. See discussion.
