MGRC’s Trait Analysis service can be used to screen multiple samples of previously identified genetic markers within plant and animal genomes rapidly, effectively and affordably. The results can then be applied for marker-assisted breeding, and selection of desirable traits and Quantitative Trait Loci (QTLs) such as increased yield in crops, and resistance to diseases and pests.
This service can also be customised and integrated with markers that correspond to new or previously characterised genetic variants in different species of interest. This can facilitate specific trait analysis studies by identifying variants associated with the desired phenotypic trait.
