Plant and seed research with genomics

Higher yields. Healthier crops. Faster variety development. Improved quality control.

Unlock the genotyping, pathogen detection and quality control answers your breeding program depends on.

The Biomark™ X9 System for High-Throughput Genomics delivers cost-effective, comprehensive and scalable sample profiling for PCR and genotyping by sequencing (GBS) studies with minimal operator contribution on a completely new platform.

Quickly go from discovery to impact

High-throughput screening of 100s—1000s of samples and genomic targets supports trait selection, determines parentage, predicts migration patterns and identifies pathogens. Biomark X9 offers complete genomic solutions at a lower cost, enabling faster time to decisions supporting crop yield, pest management, pathogen resistance, stress tolerance and other process improvements.

Faster QTL
processing


Utilize the Biomark X9™ System to identify genetic markers linked to disease resistance, growth and desirable traits by processing up to 192 samples or markers concurrently.

Food safety and
traceability


Ensure the authenticity and traceability of all your seeds with rapid and scalable testing methods adaptable to different harvesting seasons.

Disease
management


Identify asymptomatic diseases and pathogens quickly with molecular markers for viroids, bacteria, fungi and more.

Tailored molecular assays for your workflow


Customize assays for molecular-assisted breeding or QC workflows for your specific needs, then adjust assay targets and sample batch sizes on the go: Assays are not fixed or pre-spotted, so can be modified any time as needed.

CHOOSE THE PANEL THAT MATTERS


Whether performing QTL analysis for rice or detecting host-pathogen interactions of your plants of interest, design your panel of choice with our free D3™ software suite.

Yes, the Biomark X9 System can perform amplicon-based GBS experiments for up to 4,800 targets simultaneously on 48 samples, or even perform whole-transcriptome RNA-seq assays.

Read the paper

Yes, the system can be integrated with a variety of different liquid-handling robots, including the mosquito® HV (by SPT Labtech), the ASSIST PLUS (by Integra Biosciences) and many more.

See an example

No, the Biomark X9 System works with our proprietary SNP Type™ chemistry but is also compatible with a variety of other chemistries, including TaqMan™, KASPar, PACE® and more.
