LEAVE NO GENETIC STONE UNTURNED

Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) gives an unbiased, comprehensive review of any organism’s genome to discover the best genetic markers for improving agriculture. WGS is easier to use than ever for:

  • Allele mining: Pre-breeding marker discovery
  • Genome skimming: Low-pass genome sequencing
  • Pan-genome construction & mapping
  • Population genetics
  • Metagenomics
  • De novo genome assembly

    One-size-fits-all

    • Any species
    • Any sample size
    • Any sequencing depth
    • Short & long reads
    • Illumina®
    • PacBio®

    Where it all begins

    • Use WGS to identify the best markers for targeted genotyping or imputation

    Tissue/DNA to FASTQ data, SNPs and more

    • Minimum 500 samples for DNA extraction
    • Up to 4-week turnaround times

    GENOME SKIMMING & IMPUTATION: CONSISTENCY = EFFICIENCY

    The Rapid Genomics WGS pipeline is automated and optimized to meet agricultural requirements, including for low-pass genome skimming and imputation, without sacrificing even, reliable sequencing depth at any scale. This greatly improves the statistical power of WGS compared to genotyping arrays, while delivering more complete data than genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS).
