plant and animal de novo genome sequencing
bgi is a recognized leader in de novo genome sequencing and has extensive experience from the de novo sequencing and assembly of more than 400 species’ genomes. contact us today with any questions or for a no obligation quote.
de novo genome sequencing introduction
de novo sequencing refers to the sequencing of a novel genome without a reference sequence for alignment. the process of de novo genome sequencing involves the sequencing of dna fragments, assembling the reads into longer sequences (contigs) and finally ordering the contigs to obtain the entire genome sequence.
bgi has been providing de novo whole genome sequencing for over 20 years and has published countless de novo genomes across a huge variety of species in the world's leading journals.
we offer a complete suite of technologies to support your de novo sequencing projects, along with expert assistance with the planning of optimal sequencing and bioinformatics options, to assure your project is a success.
20 years of de novo sequencing experience from the first hgp project onwards.
guaranteed data quality at unbeatable pricing enabled by proprietary technology.
rapid turnaround times, global service, no project too big or small
expert support at every step of your project.
