Abstract
Ultrametric approach to the genetic code and the genome is considered and developed. p-Adic degeneracy of the genetic code is pointed out. Ultrametric tree of the codon space is presented. It is shown that codons and amino acids can be treated as p-adic ultrametric networks. Ultrametric modification of the Hamming distance is defined and noted how it can be useful. Ultrametric approach with p-adic distance is an attractive and promising trend towards investigation of bioinformation.
