LGC - Accelerating Trait Discovery

Modern breeding methods rely on fast and cost efficient identification and utilization of molecular markers. The discovery, validation and screening of associated traits is critical for plant and animal improvement. LGC has a range of products and services that can be used to improve and accelerate breeding in a cost-efficient manner. Here at this workshop, we have speakers who will share their experiences and provide insight on how LGC’s genomic solutions can support your breeding programs from discovery through production-scale testing.
