Sequence with the Leaders

In Cannabis, Mushroom, and Microbial Genomics

Medicinal Genomics uses its unmatched knowledge of the cannabis genome, P. cubensis genome, and the microbes that impact both organisms to create a variety of genomic services that provide valuable insights and actionable data.

Applications

Cannabis and Hemp Sequencing

Genotype plants, identify novel variants, and protect IP using the most advanced genomic tools on the market.

Mushroom Sequencing

Map all 40+ million bases of the P. cubensis genome to the most complete and comprehensive reference genome, delivered on Psilocydia.net.

Microbial Speciation

Identify which microbial species triggered a Total Yeast and Mold, Total Aerobic Count, or Bile Tolerant Gram Negative failure.

What our customers are saying

Matt Wheatley, PhD | Director of Cultivation, Los Suenos Farms

“I am very happy with the StrainSEEK® results I received from Medicinal Genomics. Being a molecular biologist, I plan to spend a great deal of time perusing the StrainSEEK® sequence info up close to begin to understand the differences we see in growth and disease resistance for different varieties. For example, a few of the varieties we grow have a great deal more resistance to fungal pathogens when compared with the average variety. Identification of genetic markers that impart disease resistance is incredibly important to future breeding projects. Medicinal Genomics has given me a goldmine 🙂 thanks again!”

Seth Crawford, PhD | Co-founder, Oregon CBD

“The CannSNP90 Platform is a very powerful tool for cannabis breeders. and can rapidly accelerate the process of marker discovery. In our case, it has helped us take our breeding of high total cannabinoid content in novel chemotype hemp to the next level and made it possible to identify day-neutral plants as seedlings, which are both equally groundbreaking results for us. We will definitely be using this service again.”
