Short read whole genome sequencing and DNA extraction services

Short-read WGS is a high-throughput method for capturing the complete genetic makeup of any organism—microbial, plant, animal, or fungal. By generating millions of short fragments across the entire genome, this approach enables the precise detection of SNPs, small indels, and copy number variations in both coding and non-coding regions.

Flexible Coverage for Every Objective We provide a full continuum of sequencing depths to balance scientific resolution with budgetary requirements. Skim or Low-Pass sequencing at 0.5–5× coverage is ideal for population-scale genotyping and imputation. Standard WGS at 10–30× coverage remains the gold standard for high-confidence variant discovery. For researchers detecting rare variants, validating genome edits, or resolving complex regions, we offer Deep sequencing at 50–100×+ coverage.

High-Impact Applications Our clients leverage short-read WGS to drive discovery and precision in several key areas. This technology allows for the accurate identification of SNPs and structural changes while resolving strain-level differences in microbial samples. It is essential for identifying antimicrobial resistance genes and predicting functional metabolic pathways. In agricultural contexts, these data support trait discovery, genomic selection, and the validation of engineered constructs or integration events. Furthermore, comparative genomics provides the resolution needed to assess diversity, relatedness, and evolutionary history across entire populations.
