Genomics Core Facility

Employing next-generation sequencing and traditional genomics instruments and techniques to investigate a variety of biological phenomena

The Genomics Core Facility provides services using several different next-generation sequencing platforms. Applications supported include:

  • Whole-genome and transcriptome sequencing of non-model organisms
  • Amplicon sequencing for metagenomic studies
  • Differential expression analysis of mRNA and miRNA
  • Degradome sequencing
  • ChIP and RIP sequencing

In addition, the facility continues to offer a variety of traditional services, including:

  • Sanger DNA sequencing
  • Genotyping of SNPs and VNTRs
  • Real-time qPCR

Novel way to ID disease-resistance genes in chocolate-producing trees found

Chocolate-producing cacao trees that are resistant to a major pathogen were identified by an international team of plant geneticists. The findings point the way for plant breeders to develop trees that are tolerant of the disease.
