Breicon Genomics is a company that specializes in developing and implementing advanced problem-solving techniques and methods aimed at enhancing decision-making and efficiency in breeding processes. Our mission is to provide more efficient and cost-effective breeding processes that yield higher gains and faster returns to market.

We view breeding as a manufacturing endeavor where new varieties are produced to meet specific product profiles or design specifications to satisfy both growers’ and consumers’ needs. Our optimization algorithms, which are based on mathematical approaches, are designed to identify the minimum amount of data required to make optimal decisions and also to facilitate the process of making such decisions.

Data-driven approach to breeding

The breeding process is facilitated through the utilization of genotyping, selective phenotyping, and environmental data as raw materials. Our data collection strategy prioritizes accuracy over quantity to avoid the risk of data overload and ensure optimal decision-making during the breeding process.

Process for identifying and utilizing data

Our process starts by identifying data relevant to the traits specified in the program design. We evaluate the genetic signal in the data and use metrics such as heritability to determine its utility and efficacy in informing decisions. We maximize efficiency by eliminating data and phenotypes that measure the same thing, distilled down to one or two essential traits.

We work with a variety of organizations, including those with rich data sets and others that are starting from scratch with no data. Our expertise in using data allows us to make the most of existing information, and in cases where data doesn’t exist, we have the ability to create it and get programs moving quickly.

If you only require consulting services once a year, please think of us next time.
Our team of experts is always available to provide you with the support and guidance you need to improve your breeding process and achieve your goals.
