Genomics

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.

Acceleration and cost reduction in plant breeding with improved genotype/phenotype relations, utilizing linked variants.

High-quality reference genome assemblies improve Genomic Selection and breeding

CROPaware – A web based software platform for breeding and genomics data management.
Leafy - Our state-of-the-art lead dicovery platform.

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

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

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.

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

High performance BLAST implementation adapted to run in Spark clusters.
