phenotypically = phenotypic (transparent) = phenotype + ic + ally
A straightforward adverbial formation from the adjective 'phenotypic' (phenotype -> phenotypic -> phenotypically), so the meaning follows standard derivation.
Etymology
The word phenotypically comes from Greek parts: phen- meaning 'to show', as in phenomenon, type meaning 'form' or 'kind', and the ending -ally meaning 'in a way'. So, to say something is phenotypically different is to say it 'shows' a different visible form or trait in an animal or plant.
