Genomic Selection

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

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

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.

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

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.

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 performance BLAST implementation adapted to run in Spark clusters.
