Howdy, We at Texas A&M AgriLife Genomics & Bioinformatics Service (TxGen) are dedicated to providing exceptional value and results. We are introduce the Illumina NovaSeq X Plus system—the newest powerhouse in genomic sequencing to current and future clients. Imagine cutting-edge technology that slashes the cost by 50% compared to our previous flagship systems (NovaSeq 6000) Read more about “All your X’s live in Texas” A&M AgriLife[…]
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.
