KeyGene and the genetic analysis of animals

KeyGene has acquired considerable experience in the genetic analysis of animals. In animal genetics the SSR technology has proven a popular alternative to the AFLP® fingerprinting technology. However, the AFLP technology has a number of advantages:

  • High information content: AFLP ® fingerprints result in a large number of genetic markers. This means that a genetic map based on AFLP ® fingerprints has a considerably higher density and accuracy.
  • Immediate applicability: the AFLP ® technology does not require genetic research before it can be meaningfully applied.
  • The kind of projects that KeyGene carries out for its clients are based on these unique advantages and vary from small genetic diversity analyses of organisms of which little genetic information is available to large scale and detailed genetic map construction and gene marker identification projects in commercially relevant species.
