Our company uses advanced sequencing methods such as next-generation sequencing (NGS), Genotyping By Sequencing (GBS), whole genome sequencing, and 1M position chip sequencing to accurately determine the genetic profile of your plants. We offer excellent quality genotyping with an accuracy of over 99%. This allows us to identify polymorphisms, mutations, and genetic markers that may be associated with specific plant traits such as yield, disease resistance, adaptation to various growing conditions, and other agronomically significant characteristics.
The sequencing results will enable you to optimize and accelerate your breeding process by 2-3 times, enhancing the yield, resilience, and quality of your products.
Sequencing with us will allow you to:
Determine pedigree.
Assess the genetic purity of lines/components of hybrids.
Establish genetic distance between lines/varieties/parent forms.
Identify the best and most promising genotypes for creating genetic diversity.
Identify the best components of the variety/line/parent form.
Evaluate the productivity of combinations of components from varieties/lines/parent forms. Assess combining ability.
Determine, with an accuracy of 67% to 82%, indicators such as:
Yield in a specific region.
Immune status.
Content of components: percentage of oil, protein, and other biochemical indicators.
Resistance to climatic factors: drought, humidity, frost.
Yield markers: Identify genes and alleles associated with yield.
Disease resistance markers: Identify the presence of genetic markers responsible for resistance to various diseases, helping you create plants with increased resilience to pathogens:
Resistance or tolerance to fungal diseases: such as pea root rot, ascochyta blight in peas, anthracnose, downy mildew in peas, white rot/sclerotinia, rust, fusarium (fusarium wilt, yellowing, fusarium rot), alternaria/black rot/brown leaf spots, cercospora, target leaf spot, brown spot (cladosporium), downy mildew, false powdery mildew, true powdery mildew, phytophthora, stemphylium/black rot, rhizoctonia/root rot, verticillium, stem helminthosporiosis, corn leaf helminthosporiosis, alternaria stem canker in tomatoes, gray leaf spot, corking of tomato roots, verticillium wilt, moniliosis, scab, fomopsis, cercospora root rot, common helminthosporium root rot, snow mold, fusarium root rot, fusarium leaf and stem spot, stem rust, net spot, striped spot, pyrenophora (yellow spot), red-brown spot, septoria, rhynchosporiosis (marginal spot), fusarium of heads and grains, dusty rust, ergot, hard rust, and others that may affect your plants.
Bacterial disease resistance: such as halo blight, bacterial brown spot, bacterial leaf rot, bacterial wilt, cucumber angular leaf spot, brown bacterial rot of potatoes, black bacterial spot in tomatoes, Stewart's wilt/bacterial wilt of corn, and others that may affect your plants.
Viral disease resistance: such as common bean mosaic BCMV, climbing vine virus (BCTV), leaf curling virus, pea deforming mosaic virus, green speckled mosaic virus, cucumber mosaic virus, cucumber vein yellowing virus, yellow dwarf, papaya ring spot virus/watermelon mosaic virus, zucchini yellow mosaic virus, lettuce mosaic virus, bushy stunt of lettuce, melon necrotic spot virus, pepper mild mottle virus, potato Y-virus, tobacco etch virus, toba virus, tomato spotted wilt virus, zucchini leaf curl virus, dwarf mosaic virus, sugarcane mosaic virus, tomato yellow leaf curl virus, tomato brown rugose fruit virus, and others that may affect your plants.
Resistance to nematode-induced diseases: such as peanut root-knot nematode, southern root-knot nematode, Javanese root-knot nematode, and others that may affect your plants.
Insect resistance: such as Colorado potato beetle.
Identify genetic markers for the formation of a passport for a variety/line/hybrid components, including complex ones.
Markers for resistance to systemic herbicides (glyphosate-based herbicides, phosphinothricin-based herbicides, and others), and selective herbicides (sulfonyurea and phenylurea-based herbicides, triazole-group herbicides, and others).
Harvesting trait markers: such as plant height, bushiness, tendency to lodge, branching, position of the lower pod, and others.
Adaptation markers for growing conditions: Identify genetic traits that ensure the plants adapt to various climatic conditions, soils, and other environmental factors.
Product quality markers: Identify genes responsible for key product characteristics, such as appearance (shape and size), taste, nutritional value, and shelf life.
Why it’s important to conduct sequencing of all your plants:
Optimization of selection: With a wide range of plants showing different traits, you are more likely to find the optimal combination of plants that can quickly produce the desired variety.
Genetic diversity: The varieties that perform exceptionally well do not always carry the complete set of genes necessary for all the characteristics you need. These genes may be present in less successful varieties, and our service will help identify them and create the shortest plan to achieve your breeding goals.
