Semantic Web

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

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

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

Improved genomic selection and breeding utilizing high quality reference genomes

With increasing sample numbers comes the need for automating the most valuable and applied protocols at Genetwister.

High parallel computing version of a sequence alignment application

Appropriate experimental design and data analysis of breeding trials are essential. Genetwister offers assistance in the design of experiments, aware of breeding program’s practical considerations.

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

Genomic selection (GS) is an alternative to marker assisted selection, which can accelerate the genetic gain through shorter breeding cycles. Genetwister is implementing new breeding schemes and methods that integrate GS for crop improvement.

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