High performance BLAST implementation adapted to run in Spark clusters.
Acceleration and cost reduction in plant breeding with improved genotype/phenotype relations, utilizing linked variants.
Using state-of-the-art long read sequencing technologies, Genetwister builds high quality genome assemblies of novel species and obtains long-range genomic information such as haplotypes and structural variants.
High-quality reference genome assemblies improve Genomic Selection and breeding
At Genetwister, tools are developed using distributed computing models and technologies like Spark and Hadoop.
Advanced statistical models are needed to increase the power to discover (new) associations between genetic and phenotypic variation.
Discovery of markers in all plant species by next-generation sequencing for accelerated plant breeding
With increasing sample numbers comes the need for automating the most valuable and most often applied protocols at Genetwister.
Genetwister investigates new precision phenotyping methods to integrate phenotypic data into genetic models to support breeding
To interconnect different knowledge domains, we use different semantic web technologies.
