High parallel computing version of a sequence alignment application.
Advanced statistical models are needed to increase the power to discover (new) associations between genetic and phenotypic variation
To interconnect different knowledge domains, we use different semantic web technologies.
Genetwister investigates new methods to integrate phenotypic data into genetic models to support breeding
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.
Improved genomic selection and breeding utilizing high quality reference genomes
CROPaware – A web based software platform for breeding and genomics data management.
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.
Acceleration and cost reduction in plant breeding with improved genotype/phenotype relations, utilizing linked variants.
