We are an innovative biotechnology company, specialized in molecular breeding and bioinformatics of agri-, horticultural crops and ornamentals. We develop independent technologies and new tools for molecular breeding to create a competitive advantage for our shareholders. Genetwister develops its own proprietary software for database management, data-analysis and data-mining. Genetwister is proud to have five internationally renowned breeding companies as its shareholders.
High parallel computing version of a sequence alignment application.
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.
Acceleration and cost reduction in plant breeding with improved genotype/phenotype relations, utilizing linked variants.
Using the state-of-the-art technologies such as long read sequencing technologies, Genetwister is able to build high quality genome assemblies of novel species, and obtain long range genomic information such as haplotypes and structural variants.
With increasing sample numbers comes the need for automating the most valuable and applied protocols at Genetwister.
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.
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.
Genomic selection (GS) is an alternative to marker-assisted selection, which can accelerate the genetic gain through shorter breeding cycles. Genetwister is implementing new breeding schemes and methods that integrate GS for crop improvement.
To interconnect different knowledge domains, we use different semantic web technologies.
