AgriPlex Connect Program (APC)

AgriPlex Connect

Community Genotyping Program

AgriPlex Genomics is providing plant and animal breeders the opportunity to use PlexSeq SNP genotyping panels at a discounted price and quick turnaround. In collaboration with consortia, we have constructed organism-specific SNP panels that can be used throughout the year, as your needs require.

AgriPlex Connect Benefits

Free DNA extraction
Every panel offered every month
Turn around time: Receive your PlexCall data in 2 to 3 weeks. QA/QC panels could have a quicker turnaround time. Contact AgriPlex for details.
No sample minimum: Panels will be run every month if there is at least 1 (96) well plate of samples in house
Hybrid collective discount/ credit system: Participants will receive a collective discount based on the total number of samples submitted for each panel that is then yours to use as a credit towards your future APC project (credit expires 1 year from the date of issue).
Active participants can influence the evolution of APC panels

Questions about your data?

When are panels run?

APC will be run on an ongoing basis every month for all panels. We are collecting samples for all APC panels throughout the entire year and run them on the 1st of the month (if the 1st falls on a weekend, it will be run the following Monday).

The development of PlexSeq SNP Panels:

AgriPlex Genomics coordinates the creation of various crop and livestock specific consortia. Each consortium consists of research professionals from both academia and industry. We are actively working to create new panels and update existing ones.

Those interested in the creation, development, or improvement of a PlexSeq panel will meet together virtually to define relevant genetic markers for current and upcoming panels.

If you would like to propose the creation of a new SNP panel, please contact us.
