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.

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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.
