What we do
We provide a cost-effective and time-saving solution to both academia and companies. We can be your research partner in genome editing, providing potato lines with induced mutations in your gene of interest. Leave the resource-demanding tissue culture work to us - you only need to focus on what functional genomics and traits you want.
Gene characterisation and trait discovery
With our efficient transgene-free method, we can deliver potato lines with full knockout and/or induced allelic variation of a target gene in a tetraploid model variety.
Client case for improved health properties:
We induced mutations in two genes involved in the starch biosynthesis and studied if we could create a potato with a low glycemic index (GI) and higher levels of resistant starch (RS).
Trait development
With our genotype independent and efficient transgene-free method, we can deliver full knockout and/or induced allelic variation of a target gene in a commercial potato variety.
Client case for sustainable production:
We created potato varieties with short chain amylopectin, a starch that ensures storage stability in products. Thereby replacing chemically modified starches in food and industrial products, making them E-number free.
