Agrigenomics

Key advantages

• Whole genome, exome, and targeted sequencing for plants and animals

• Improves breeding efficiency through marker-assisted and genomic selection

• Identifies traits related to yield, disease resistance, drought tolerance, and quality

• Supports biodiversity studies and conservation programs

• Accelerates domestication and trait introgression in non-model species

• Traceability and authentication for food products and protected breeds

• Customizable panels for species-specific or trait-specific applications

• Applicable across agricultural sectors, including crops, livestock, aquaculture

Technical specifications
