Vision and Mission

At DArT P/L we have a vision of:

• a society that is aware of the profound value of biodiversity to the wellbeing of mankind;
• diversified agriculture that makes better use of existing genetic resources;
• designing, developing and using modern technologies to deliver better social, agricultural and environmental outcomes across the planet.

Our mission at DArT P/L is:

• to develop and provide cost-effective genotyping technologies that enable more efficient use of genetic resources;
• to facilitate the development of a network of people and organizations using affordable genotyping technologies across the agricultural and environmental sector in an equitable manner;
• to promote and support development of crops adapted to local environments and low-input agriculture;
• to develop and deliver applications of DNA profiling and information technologies for a wide range of ecological and environmental studies.

Why DArT?

DArT is a generic and cost-effective genotyping technology detecting all types of DNA variation (SNP, indel, CNV, methylation). It was invented by Andrzej Kilian, to overcome some of the limitations of other molecular marker technologies such as RFLP, AFLP and SSR.
