Overview
Genotyping by Sequencing (GBS) is a high-throughput technique that identifies genetic variations across the genome by sequencing reduced-representation libraries. This service provides comprehensive primary data analysis for 96 samples, including quality control, alignment to a reference genome, variant calling, and annotation. The analysis is crucial for applications in population genetics, plant and animal breeding, and clinical diagnostics. At DNA Labs India, we ensure accurate and reliable results using state-of-the-art bioinformatics pipelines. The cost for this analysis is INR 125000, with a turnaround time of 4 weeks. Our service includes free home sample collection across major cities in India. Genetic variations identified through GBS can aid in diagnosing inherited disorders, understanding disease susceptibility, and guiding personalized treatment strategies. This test is ideal for researchers and clinicians who need high-resolution genetic data for large cohorts, enabling efficient and cost-effective genotyping compared to whole-genome sequencing. With rigorous quality control and expert bioinformatics support, we deliver actionable insights to advance your research or clinical decision-making.

The purpose of this test is to perform primary data analysis on genotyping-by-sequencing data from 96 samples. It aims to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and other genetic variants that may be associated with diseases or traits. This analysis is essential for researchers and clinicians to understand genetic diversity, map disease genes, and support breeding programs.

Questions customers ask
Frequently asked questions
What is Genotyping by Sequencing (GBS)?
GBS is a method to identify genetic variations by sequencing a reduced representation of the genome, focusing on SNP-rich regions.
What does the primary data analysis include?
It includes quality control, alignment to reference genome, variant calling, and annotation.
How many samples are covered in this test?
This package covers 96 samples.
What is the cost of the test?
The cost is INR 125000 for 96 samples.
What is the turnaround time?
Reports are delivered within 4 weeks.
What sample type is required?
Extracted DNA is required. We also provide free home collection for blood or saliva samples.
Is fasting required?
No, fasting is not required.
Can this test be used for disease diagnosis?
Yes, it can identify genetic variants associated with diseases, but clinical correlation is necessary.
Is the test available across India?
Yes, we offer home collection in over 200 cities across India.
What is the difference between GBS and whole genome sequencing?
GBS sequences only a subset of the genome, making it more cost-effective for large sample numbers, while WGS covers the entire genome.
Are there any risks involved?
No physical risks, but genetic results may have psychological implications.
How should I interpret the results?
Results should be interpreted by a qualified geneticist or clinician, considering clinical history.
