The primary aim of “omic” technologies is the nontargeted identification of all gene products
(transcripts, proteins, and metabolites) present in a specific biological sample. By their …

The “metabolome” comprises the entire complement of small molecules in a plant or any
other organism. It represents the ultimate phenotype of cells, deduced from the perturbation …

Understanding cellular metabolic systems is vital not only for determining the function of
enzymatic genes, but also for elucidating the coordination among various metabolic …

Metabolite levels together with their corresponding metabolic fluxes are integrative
outcomes of biochemical transformations and regulatory processes and they can be used to …

Plant metabolomics is a rapidly advancing field of plant sciences and systems biology. It
involves comprehensive analyses of small molecules (metabolites) in plant tissues and …

Metabolomic analysis aims at the identification and quantitation of all metabolites in a given
biological sample. Current data acquisition and network analysis strategies are classified on …

Metabolomics now plays a significant role in fundamental plant biology and applied
biotechnology. Plants collectively produce a huge array of chemicals, far more than are …

Metabolomics has grown greatly as a functional genomics tool, and has become an
invaluable diagnostic tool for biochemical phenotyping of biological systems. Over the past …

Metabolite profiling is a fast growing technology and is useful for phenotyping and
