MGI Tech Co., Ltd.

From MGIJun 7 2024 SHENZHEN, China, June 6, 2024 – , a company committed to building core tools and technologies that drive innovation in life science , today announced a highly efficient whole workflow solution for agricultural large-scale Low-pass whole genome sequencing based on its proprietary DNBSEQTM platforms during this year’s International Plant and Animal Genome Conference Asia , taking place on June 5-7 in Shenzhen, China.

In combination with MGI’s advanced automation platforms, the Low-pass WGS solution breaks through the limit on throughput as seen in ordinary library preparation. It utilizes the fewer number of automated tools to match ultra-high throughput, as while maintaining a high degree of automation. As a result, large-scale library preparation can be done in a short time, at low cost, and with great automation friendliness.

The initial workflow released includes a pig reference panel and a data analysis software that has been based on GLIMPSE2, allowing users to perform pig genotyping without having to build their own database. Free format conversion service is also available for users with an existing reference panel to be compatible with the analysis software.

Compared to traditional genotyping by microarray, MGI’s new solution offers genome-wide data at the same cost but captures a broader range of genetic variation, enhances the discovery of new variants, and increases the statistical power of genome-wide studies, all while eliminating high design and start-up costs associated with microarrays. The dynamic features of this solution enable continuous updates and optimizations in genomic analyses.
