Solis Agrosciences provides high-quality, customizable sequencing services tailored to a wide range of plant and animal projects. Whether you’re submitting DNA or starting with tissue samples, our in-house team of molecular breeders, geneticists, and bioinformaticians works with you to design and execute the right sequencing strategy for your goals. We prioritize fast turnaround, clear communication, and data analysis that aligns with your scientific and budgetary needs.
We extract DNA from a wide variety of materials, including leaf and root tissue (fresh or freeze-dried), seeds, swabs, hair, semen, and blood. Our protocols are optimized for both plant and animal inputs, ensuring clean, high-yield samples.
All incoming samples undergo both quantitative and qualitative assessment using Qubit, NanoDrop, and Fragment Analyzer platforms. These tools verify DNA concentration, purity, and degradation so we can ensure high-quality inputs for downstream analysis.
We provide clear, accessible submission protocols for both tissue samples and pre-extracted DNA. Not sure how to get started? Our team is here to guide you through the process.
We offer standard 150bp paired-end, short-read sequencing across multiple platforms — ideal for generating full genome coverage to support trait discovery, population studies, and reference assemblies.
Our skim sequencing typically delivers around 1x coverage, depending on organism, genome size, and ploidy level. It’s a cost-effective way to compare large populations and enable accurate downstream imputation.
Capture high-resolution data from targeted genomic regions with flexible, cost-efficient sequencing depth. Ideal for focusing on known genes, complex loci, or QTLs without running full-genome coverage.
Built to match your breeding program, species, and population structure
FASTQ, BAM, VCF, and imputed VCF formats, delivered with clarity and consistency
GWAS, QTL mapping, and BSA to identify meaningful associations
PCA and kinship analysis to support genetic structure and relationship assessments
As a plant trait innovator, our growth roadmap and innovation pipeline would not be possible without Solis. The experienced team and world class capabilities, coupled with a deep understanding attuned to the needs of startups, is what makes Solis an indispensable partner. The team’s skilled hands and impeccable customer service have delivered results that consistently exceed our expectations.
Chief Scientific Officer ZeaKal
Solis is launching an exciting and new model for R&D services to support the expanding AgriFoodTech startup ecosystem. Meeting global challenges in climate, food security and sustainability requires new and improved crops. Solis will help scientists accelerate the discovery and commercialization of these important advances.
Former CTO, Monsanto & 2013 World Food Prize Laureate
Solis’ Plant Pipeline as a Service is the best integrated resource imaginable for gene editing, plant transformation, plant analysis, and greenhouse operation. Working with Solis is like having our own in-house team to manage our pipeline. They are great partners dedicated to our success.
Chief Scientific Officer Amfora
I highly recommend Solis as a sequencing and genotyping partner for any kind of genomics work. In fact, I’ve already referred at least two research labs, and both were very happy with the pricing and data quality. It’s also always a pleasure to communicate with Solis. Their customer service is excellent, quick, and efficient.
Genomics Lead of Breeding Insight Cornell University
At Breeding Insight, we work with public plant and animal breeders who often face tight budgets and niche genomic data needs. Solis helped us get the most sequencing coverage for our fixed budget, and the flexibility of their WGS platform was a perfect fit. Hudson has been a tremendous help—working with him feels like having a coworker at Solis, someone truly invested in our success.
