Revarix
Solving agriculture’s toughest genetic puzzles
We develop crops that are more resilient, productive, and adapted to a changing world by uncovering traits traditional methods overlook.
Why this matters
-
Many crops like banana, cassava, and grapevine are clonally propagated.
-
Over time, they accumulate hidden mutations that add genetic complexity.
-
This makes traditional breeding slow and challenging.
-
Disease pressures and climate change are intensifying the challenge.
-
Unlocking this hidden diversity is essential for resilient, high-performing crops.
Our Technology
High-Resolution Allele Discovery (Hi-ReAD) combines whole-genome sequencing with a proprietary algorithm built for clonally propagated crops. It identifies causal genetic variants by accounting for somatic mutations and meristem layer-specific effects.
Unlike traditional approaches, Hi-ReAD works effectively with small, well-characterised samples, avoiding the need for large breeding populations, which are often slow, costly, or impractical in clonal crops.
