Our research on molecular diagnostics, metabarcoding/metagenomics, phylogenetics/phylogenomics, population genetics/genomics of endemic/invasive/emerging forest pathogens, and other host/microbe species requires services that provide diverse, accurate, and precise DNA/RNA sequencing services (whole genome sequencing, Sanger sequencing, transcriptome sequencing) and FTA cards processing.
The Contractor shall supply the necessary personnel, reagents, and laboratory equipment needed to perform the following:
- Processing DNA (genomic and targeted amplicons) and RNA (including miRNA)
- approximately 2,300 samples
- Next Generation Sequencing (e.g., Illumina- NovaSeq6000, PacBio-Revio platform)
- Processing FTA card samples (e.g., DNA extraction, PCR, and genomic/metagenomic sequencing)
- Fast turn-around time (typically within 24 - 48 hours for Sanger Sequencing and 4-6 weeks for Next Generation Sequencing)
- Sample tracking systems (barcoded label sample tracking systems)
- Must process the samples in USA.
