BGI launched the research result of the world’s largest genome set of human intestinal bacteria.

BGI cooperated with Yunnan Agricultural University other institutions to complete the world’s first high-quality chromosome-level genome of spodoptera frugiperda.

MGI launched its new proprietary one-stop sequencing solution, including a first brand new portable gene sequencing system DNBSEQ E series, and a modular “digital bio lab” DNBelab D series for use with the sequencing system.
