Researchers at Genetwister Technologies have generated a graph pangenome of seven cucumber varieties, capturing large-scale structural variation of this important…
Conventional genome assemblies collapse the genetic information of a diploid or polyploid individual into a single-haplotype representation. A single-haplotype representation of…
To interconnect different knowledge domains, we use different semantic web technologies.
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.
Appropriate experimental design and data analysis of breeding trials are essential. Genetwister offers assistance in the experimental design, taking into account all practical considerations of the breeding program.
Discovery of markers in all plant species by next-generation sequencing for accelerated plant breeding
Genomic selection (GS) accelerates achieving genetic gain through shorter breeding cycles and is an alternative to marker-assisted selection. Genetwister implements new breeding schemes and methods that integrate GS for crop improvement.
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.
CROPaware – A web based software platform for breeding and genomics data management.
Leafy - Our state-of-the-art lead dicovery platform.
Advanced statistical models are needed to increase the power to discover (new) associations between genetic and phenotypic variation.
With increasing sample numbers comes the need for automating the most valuable and most often applied protocols at Genetwister.
