I have added the following font command in the .Xresources file :
xterm*font:12
then i did xrdb -merge .Xresources

There's no such thing as "gnome xterm".
The gnome project provides a distant relative called "gnome-terminal", but see the
XTerm FAQ.
The resource-definition matches the
application name, which can differ.
For instance, if gnome's launcher made a symbolic link to xterm using a different
name, then your resource settings would not apply to the different name.
Using the
class name (
XTerm) will make it apply to everything using
that resource-class. XTerm also provides an option to use a different class, e.g.,
UXYerm as used by the
uxterm script.
