AgriGenomics Laboratory

Mission:

The primary goal of the AgriGenomics Lab (AGL) is to assist graduate students, staff, and faculty launch, economize and expedite their research, especially when it involves DNA or RNA extraction and quality checks, targeted genotyping, dosage analysis, preparation for sequencing and DNA content analysis.  In addition, the AGL can assist with research planning, data interpretation and facilitate usage of complementary cores, e.g., for sequencing.

Three Categories of Patrons:

• Access fee-paying Members: students and staff in research groups of faculty who have paid the annual AGL-access fee (includes AGL access, training, consultations, limited free services and reduced consumable pricing.)
• Other TAMUS members can access reduced-cost services.
• External users (non-TAMUS) can access services at published rates – consultation, pilot-testing and experimentation.

To inquire about AGL membership or contracting an AGL service for your project, please email AGL@tamu.edu, call the AGL Manager (Dr. Robert Vaughn) (979) 450-2765 or the lab Director or Co-director (see Personnel).
