Genomic Selection

Improved genomic selection and breeding utilizing high quality reference genomes

CROPaware – A web based software platform for breeding and genomics data management.

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

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

High parallel computing version of a sequence alignment application.

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

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

With the increasing demands for DNA molecule size and purity on the newest long read sequencing platforms, comes the need for developing new protocols for DNA isolation from different biological sources in the laboratory at Genetwister.

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

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.
