In an outbreak situation in crops, it is necessary to obtain quickly a good overview of the viruses that may be involved. Only in this way can the right measures be taken to safeguard crop production immediately but also in the long term. High-throughput sequencing (HTS) and bioinformatics analysis of samples offer a global analysis of the phytosanitary status of plants and the rapid and precise identification of pathogens.

This service is intended for a global analysis of viral reference samples in order to obtain information about the genomic sequences on the one hand, and on the other hand, it opens the possibility to check the purity at the same time in order to exclude possible contaminations. It is used for quality control and certification of reference material.

Specific tests for certain regulated viruses are required for the certification of seed and planting material. However, the main limitation of this approach is that only these viruses are detected. Latent and/or unknown viruses, which can also have a significant impact on yield and product quality, remain unidentified. Especially in vegetative propagation material, this inevitably leads to the accumulation of such pathogens. High-throughput sequencing and bioinformatics analysis offers a global analysis of the phytosanitary status of plants.

High-throughput sequencing and bioinformatics analysis of samples for a global analysis of the phytosanitary status of plants and the rapid and precise identification of pathogens. Can be used for the discovery of novel or rare virus variants, the characterization of the genetic variation and the population composition.
