Marker discovery
Discovery of markers in all plant species by next-generation sequencing for accelerated plant breeding
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.
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.
Tailored marker selection allowing for genotyping regardless of species, genome size and ploidy level.
High performance BLAST implementation adapted to run in Spark clusters.
Genetwister investigates new precision phenotyping methods to integrate phenotypic data into genetic models to support breeding
To interconnect different knowledge domains, we use different semantic web technologies.
Genomic selection (GS) accelerates achieving genetic gain through shorter breeding cycles and is an alternative to marker-assisted selection. Genetwister implements new breeding schemes and methods that integrate GS for crop improvement.
High-quality reference genome assemblies improve Genomic Selection and breeding
