Greenomics will be applying advanced sequencing techniques, automation, bioinformatics and quality control procedures to generate and assemble sequences into a complete genome. Understanding the genome will lead to the development of new methods for the production of lactic acid, which in turn can lower costs, reduce waste and stimulate the evolution of new products. The company has factories in Brazil, Spain, The Netherlands and the USA, and is represented in more than 100 countries worldwide. Greenomics was established in 1999 as the DNA-sequencing centre of Plant Research International B.V. in Wageningen and has since made a name for itself as a top laboratory for genome research in The Netherlands. The centre s services range from the sequencing of complete genomes to cDNA and PCR-sequencing, genotyping and bioinformatics.
