Plant and Animal Genome
Reference-Free Genomics

Plant & Animal
De Novo Assembly

Deciphering the blueprint of life from scratch. We combine the "Technology Trinity" to deliver chromosome-scale assemblies for the most complex species.

Biodiversity & Ag-Tech

Key Applications

From crop improvement to unlocking novel biosynthetic pathways.

Agricultural Genomics

Improve crop yield, disease resistance, and environmental stress tolerance by understanding the full genetic blueprint of elite cultivars.

Biodiversity & Conservation

Establish high-quality reference genomes for endangered species to support conservation genetics and evolutionary studies.

Microbiology & Microbiomics

Fully resolve complex microbial genomes, plasmids, and structural variants without the need for a prior reference.

Pharmacognosy & Drug Discovery

Discover novel biosynthetic gene clusters in medicinal plants and marine organisms for pharmaceutical applications.

The Technology Trinity

One platform is never enough for a perfect assembly. We weave together long-reads and spatial mapping to resolve the unresolvable.

PacBio HiFi (CCS)

Combining the accuracy of short-read sequencing with the length of long-reads for near-perfect contig assembly.

Oxford Nanopore (ULR)

Ultra-Long Reads (100kb+) to span the most complex repetitive regions and structural variations.

Hi-C Scaffolding

Capturing 3D chromatin interactions to anchor contigs into chromosome-level pseudomolecules.

Assembly
Gold Standards

Building a reference-grade genome requires more than just raw data. Our computational pipeline utilizing Hifiasm, Canu, and Salsa2 ensures that N50 metrics and BUSCO scores exceed international consortium standards.

  • Haplotype-Aware Phase Assembly
  • Gap-Free Centromere & Telomere Resolution
  • High-Confidence Gene Scaffolding
  • Automated Assembly Polishing with Illumina

Conquering Polyploidy & Repeats

Many plant genomes are polyploid (multiple chromosome sets), making assembly extremely difficult. We utilize Oxford Nanopore Ultra-Long reads to span multi-megabase repeats and PacBio HiFi to resolve highly similar haplotypes.

Heterozygosity Handling

Advanced algorithms to separate paternal and maternal alleles in diploid organisms.

Chromosomal Scaffolding

Utilizing Hi-C to map long-range connections and anchor contigs into full chromosomes.

Technical FAQ

Resequencing requires a high-quality reference genome. Use De Novo sequencing for non-model organisms, for species with highly fragmented existing references, or when investigating structural variations that are lost in standard mapping approaches.
