Lab automation

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.

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.

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

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

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.

High performance BLAST implementation adapted to run in Spark clusters.

High-quality reference genome assemblies improve Genomic Selection and breeding
