Haplotype discovery

High-quality reference genome assemblies improve Genomic Selection and breeding

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.

High performance BLAST implementation adapted to run in Spark clusters.

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

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

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

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

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