GENOMICS & BIOINFORMATICS SERVICE
Sequencing
We have already sequenced more than 100 different species (not counting metagenomic projects), over 1000 samples/month processed and we add about one new project every day.
Library preparation
A key element of NGS is the high-quality library preparation. The protocols and equipment used by our team can accommodate a range of needs.
Bioinformatics Analysis and Processing
Our quantitative and computational analytical unit sits at the cutting edge of bioinformatics research — we use the latest tools and develop improvements to correct short comings with these tools.
Who We Are
Introducing TxGen, the Texas A&M AgriLife Genomics and Bioinformatics Service! At TxGen, our mission is to revolutionize genomic research across AgriLife, COALS, and the Texas A&M University System by providing world-class laboratory and bioinformatics expertise. We're dedicated to accelerating genomic research across Texas and the world, and embodying the Aggie Core Values of Service, Excellence, Leadership, Loyalty, Respect, and Integrity.
Led by Dr. Charles Johnson, our team of genomics, bioinformatics, and molecular scientists is committed to meeting the next generation sequencing (NGS) needs of the TAMU system and broader scientific community. With over 13 years of experience running a gene technologies lab and more than 3000 completed projects, we've grown to be one of the leading agrigenomic sequencing facilities in the world. We're proud to be recognized as a center of excellence by both Illumina and PerkinElmer, and to have the capacity to process over 200,000 samples per year and generate enough data to sequence 43,000 human genomes at a cost well below most commercial and academic facilities. Investments in personnel and equipment have been critical to providing genomics and bioinformatics infrastructure for student training, faculty retention, and successful R&D initiatives in the areas of agriculture, life sciences, human health, and veterinary medicine.
Allow us to serve you and let's accelerate genomic research together!-

Position filled
We are currently recruiting for an entry level lab research assistant at TXGen Link to Apply This is a great position for someone wanting to gain experience in high throughput genomic technology in a structured & supportive environment.
Low Cost Genotyping
Low-pass genotyping is a genotyping approach that involves sequencing DNA samples at a lower coverage depth. In this method, instead of sequencing the entire genome at a high coverage depth, a subset of the genome is sequenced at a lower depth, typically between 0.1x and 5x coverage. This reduced coverage is achieved by sequencing a Read more about Low Cost Genotyping[…]
