Plant and Animal Low-Pass Whole Genome Sequencing
Plant and animal low pass whole genome sequencing provides a more comprehensive, accurate and efficient tool for large-scale genomics projects that traditionally have used legacy technology such as genotyping arrays. The lpWGS approach outperforms the arrays by providing an order of magnitude more data, greater statistical power, enhanced variant discovery capabilities.
Plant and Animal Low Pass Whole Genome Sequencing Introduction
Plant and animal low pass whole genome sequencing (lpWGS) involves sequencing the entire genome of a plant/animal species at low sequencing depth.
Genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) is another common technique used in plant or animal genomic studies. While cost effective, the GBS approach often leads to missing data and requires complex bioinformatics analysis.
Our end-to-end workflow can support you with a broad range of species, including: cattle, pig, chicken, dog, cat, rat, mice, corn, rice, soybean and pea. We also evaluate and accept custom projects on a case-by-case basis. We can perform deep sequencing for a select number of individuals and build a well assembled reference genome for imputations.
