Helping you screen and uncover more than ever before - Decode Science offers a full workflow for the genomic testing of plants and animals

Agricultural genetic biology testing involves analysing the genetic makeup of plants, animals, and microorganisms to improve agricultural productivity, sustainability, and resilience. This testing encompasses various techniques, including genotyping, sequencing, and molecular marker analysis, to identify desirable traits, such as disease resistance, drought tolerance, and high yield potential. It also includes the routine screening of plants for ID purposes and for pathogens to ensure environments and crops remain pest and disease free.

Decode Science can assist AgBio groups to improve their outcomes by working together on their workflow. From automation and sequencers, library prep and extraction kits, quality control and more. At Decode Science, we pride ourselves on the level of flexibility, customisation, and collaboration we bring when working together to come up with a solution that improves outcomes for you and your clients.

Crop Improvement

Identifying and selecting plants with beneficial genetic traits for breeding programs aimed at developing new varieties with improved agronomic performance, nutritional quality, and stress tolerance.

Livestock Genetics

Assessing the genetic diversity and health of livestock populations, identifying genetic markers associated with desirable traits (e.g., meat quality, milk production), and implementing selective breeding strategies to enhance productivity and animal welfare.

Disease Resistance

Screening plants and animals for genetic resistance to pests, pathogens, and diseases, enabling the development of resistant cultivars and breeds to reduce the need for chemical pesticides and antibiotics.

Environmental Sustainability

Studying the genetic basis of traits related to resource use efficiency, such as nitrogen fixation in legumes or water use efficiency in crops, to optimise agricultural practices and minimise environmental impact.

Precision Agriculture

Using genetic information to tailor farming practices, such as fertiliser application, irrigation scheduling, and pest management, to specific genetic profiles, soil conditions, and environmental factors, maximising yield while minimizing inputs.

High-efficiency guide RNAs for knockouts and knock-ins.
CRISPR experts agree that using synthetic single guide RNAs (sgRNAs) for genome engineering generate more efficient and consistent editing results than any other type of guide RNAs.
Synthego sgRNAs are highly pure guides that deliver indel frequencies of up to 99%, making it easy to efficiently conduct knockout or knock-ins in virtually any cell type. Their sgRNAs can be ordered with site-specific chemical modifications that provide greater stability and decreased activation of the cellular innate immune response.
