LGC BIOSEARCH Webinars
| Developing genotyping platforms to enable discovery, quality control and genomic breeding at CoverCress Inc. |
Abstract
This webinar describes key genotyping platforms identified through a partnership of CCI and LGC Biosearch Technologies which will then be used in various applications of CoverCress™ product development. These projects demonstrated the flexibility of genotyping platforms for applications within the CCI program. We have started implementing one of these genotyping platforms – Flex-Seq™ that covers 5,000 unique regions in the genome to aid in genetic mapping, genomic selection, and fingerprinting of lines. We anticipate data accuracy, reproducibility, and coverage of the genome will allow us to deliver future products on accelerated timelines.
Topics covered
- Understand renewable feedstock growth and how new practices and crops such as CoverCress™ in the agricultural system will enable solutions for the feedstock demands of renewable diesel production.
- Gain an understanding of how genotyping platforms, such as Flex-Seq, can accelerate the introduction of new crops with limited genomic resources and diversity into the market.
- Potential applications of these platforms for fingerprinting, diversity analysis and genetic mapping.
- Learn the benefits of partnering with a company that has core competency in method development to support molecular breeding.
