Finger printing/parental screening
SNP’s identify mapping data and are a benefit of breeding strategies and global agricultural development. Our SNP assays increase speed of genotyping and are of low cost.

KASP™ genotyping chemistry in MAS allows greater numbers of assays to be rapidly developed and genotyped in a highly flexible and industry proven manner.
SNP validation
SNP marker development for a genome screening tool is based on three detection, validation & selection.

Existing use of Marker-assisted selection (MAS) in plant and animal breeding (MAB) involves a high level of expenditure, in terms of SNP assays, equipment and informatics.
KASP™ genotyping chemistry in MAS has become the “global benchmark”* technology allowing greater numbers of assays to be rapidly developed and genotyped in a highly flexible and industry proven manner.
