About us

With increasing sample numbers and marker panel sizes, it is valuable to increase the throughput of sequencing and genotyping procedures. Genetwister develops cost-effective methods and applies available methods for allowing high-throughput genomics.

At Genetwister, tools are developed using distributed computing models and technologies like Spark and Hadoop.

CROPaware – A web based software platform for breeding and genomics data management.

To interconnect different knowledge domains, we use different semantic web technologies.

Discovery of markers in all plant species by next-generation sequencing for accelerated plant breeding

High parallel computing version of a sequence alignment application.

Tailored marker selection allowing for genotyping regardless of species, genome size and ploidy level.

With increasing sample numbers comes the need for automating the most valuable and applied protocols at Genetwister.

Appropriate experimental design and data analysis of breeding trials are essential. Genetwister offers assistance in the designing of experiments, taking into account the breeding program’s practical considerations.

Genetwister investigates new methods to integrate phenotypic data into genetic models to support breeding
