High-quality reference genome assemblies improve Genomic Selection and breeding

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.

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

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.

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

Advanced statistical models are needed to increase the power to discover (new) associations between genetic and phenotypic variation.

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