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[…]
In our continuing commitment to the Aggie core value of excellence, Texas A&M AgriLife Genomic and Bioinformatics Service is pleased to announce our new NovaSeq pricing. We have recently added a 2nd Illumina NovaSeq system to our facility. As a consequence, we are able to offer researchers a significant reduction in the cost of sequencing.

2018 was a landmark sequencing year for @TXGEN and this year is shaping up to be even bigger. We added a 2nd @illumina NovaSeq to meet the growing demand and in collaboration with @PerkinElmer_AG are slashing total sequencing project costs by 40%, or more for 2019. We were named a Center of Excellence by PerkinElmer. Read more about Launching new NovaSeq Service. up to 40% reduction in cost of sequencing[…]
