// TraitMAGICTM
Pave the way to smarter breeding by unraveling the causation elements in your population genomics
Quickly discover the phenotype-genotype correlations in any organism with NRGene’s complete trait-mapping package.
We’ll generate a highly-accurate genetic map which is utilized to order the pseudo-chromosomes and allows for complete phasing in a segregating population. Our special skim-sequencing derived analysis brings a new level of detail to genomic analysis and unlocks the secrets of your population-genomics.
TraitMAGIC – Explained
Outstanding Results
REAL CASE STUDY 1 (HOMOZYGOTE):
241 significant loci affecting 129 fruit quality traits were identified by converting over 58,000 markers to 3,663 haplotype bins in a melon RIL population*

REAL CASE STUDY 2 (HETEROZYGOTE):
A phased haplotype approach (TraitMAGIC) was found superior to a consensus marker-based approach even when applied to <25% of a heterozygote F1 population.
| METHOD | # OF PROGENY ANALYZED | # OF LOCI IDENTIFIED | PREDICTION ACCURACY* |
|---|---|---|---|
| NRGENE | 200 | >8 | 70% |
| ALTERNATE | >800 | 1 | 0% |
* percentage of progeny whose phenotype can be predicted with high accuracy based on the results.

Frequently Asked Questions
It means that the two parental contributions of a segregating population are completely separated and parental meiotic components for each progeny are fully reconstructed.
Two unique features provide superior mapping results: 1. Phasing: it could be that each parent is heterozygous for different QTLs and only a phased map enables the detection of these. 2. Haplotype bins are used and not single markers, allowing for powerful statistics at the maximal true resolution (improving both specificity and sensitivity compared with using single markers).
