Lab for gene sequencing in plant species?-Follow-up
 

The lab is Pioneer and they work with pretty much any type of genetic
material, not just plant.

located in Ohio.
I'll see if I can get more detailed info.

Can anyone identify a commercial lab in USA which perfoms gene
sequencing on
plant samples? What I have in mind is identification of base pair
differences between a "normal" plant and one with a single gene
mutation for
purposes of U.S. design patent application. Thanks.

The puffer fish genome was sequenced by sending work out to
commercial labs that had idle capacity. Perhaps one of those
labs would do the job for you. These days, it doesn't make
much difference what kind of organism you're sequencing.

See "Whole-genome shotgun assembly and analysis of the genome
of Fugu rubripes", Aparicio et al 2002, Science 297(#5585) pp.
1301-1310 (August 32).

Can you tell the lab where to look on the genome? That is,
do you know which primers they should use to run PCR across
the gene region(s) of interest? Or can you give them enough
information that they can determine which primers to use?
