With the rapid increase in global population and changing climate patterns, the global food supply problem is becoming more and more prominent. The development of genomics technology is influencing the development of global agricultural industry, and more and more researchers or breeders are using genomics-related technologies to improve the productivity, nutrition level and viability of agricultural products.
CD Genomics provides a series of advanced genomics technologies such as NGS, long-read sequencing, SNP custom microarrays and other related technical services, which effectively help breeders to broaden the breeding pathways of plants and animals. Based on our genomics-related technologies, we have provided technical and data support for researchers to design and breed more and more crops and livestock breeds with precision. We have completed sequencing and analysis of more and more plant and animal genomes, and cloned a large number of important genes with great economic value, such as yield, quality, resistance. Our technical services have greatly promoted research in the field of plant and animal breeding, accelerated the improvement of plant and animal species, and provided effective solutions to the problem of feeding the global population.
Unlock the potential of genome breeding with the crucial first step — the creation of a high-quality reference genome. At CD Genomics, we specialize in crafting reference genomes, serving as the cornerstone for successful genome breeding endeavors.
Our approach involves harnessing the power of long-read sequencing, NGS, and Hi-C method. This dynamic combination enables us to assemble chromosome-level reference genomes of unparalleled quality. As technology continues to evolve, we also offer T2T reference genomes for those pursuing perfection in their genomic endeavors.
In plant breeding, we leverage genetic markers to enhance traits like drought resistance, optimizing growth and nutrient levels through whole-genome sequencing. Our approach to animal breeding swiftly identifies positive genotypes and phenotypes linked to economic traits in livestock, including cattle, pigs, dairy cows, chickens, and sheep.
The essence of genomic breeding lies in the intricate web of genome-wide variant information. At the core of this foundation is the need for comprehensive and high-quality genomic variant data, a critical component in the strategic design of breeding loci. Our expertise is centered around empowering your genomic breeding endeavors through population genomics research.
We concentrate on SNV and SV in population genomics research. While current breeding microarrays predominantly rely on SNV variation information, we anticipate a transformative shift in the landscape.
As research findings on SV variation become widespread, we foresee a future where SV variation takes center stage in genomic breeding, offering new dimensions and possibilities for your projects.
Epigenomics, encompassing technologies like DAP-Seq, ATAC-seq, and ChIP-seq, plays a pivotal role in agricultural research. By integrating data from epigenetic technologies, such as regulatory elements, we can incorporate non-coding regions. These regions constitute a significant portion of variant locus regions across the entire genome, enhancing the comprehensiveness and representativeness of breeding loci. Consequently, this integration contributes to improved breeding efficiency.
Building upon the chromosome-level reference genome, our functional locus breeding chip integrates information from polymorphic variants derived from population genetics, including trait loci identified through GWAS. This combination is enriched with data from epigenomic studies, incorporating insights into regulatory elements. The design of locus selection is guided by specific principles.
Utilizing genotyping data from the SNP genotyping panel, we facilitate genome-wide selective breeding. This process involves constructing a reference population model and calculating breeding values for the target population.
