Synopsis

Following a general introduction to the book, the first section of the book will include details of metabolomics of model species, including Arabidopsis, tomato and the legume Medicago. Chapters within the second section will consider the use and inter relationships of data integration, systems biology, genetics, genomics, metabolomics, chemometrics and biostatisitcs. The final section of the book will look at the use of metabolomics in food science, plant ecology, biodiversity and bioprocessing.Plant Metabolomicsis an essential purchase for plant scientists, plant geneticists and physiologists.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

Biology of Plant Metabolomics is an exciting new volume in Wiley-Blackwell's highly successful Annual Plant Reviews series. Concentrating on the biology and biological relevance of plant metabolomics, each chapter, written by internationally-acknowledged experts in the field from at least two different research groups, combines a review of the existing biological results with an extended assessment of possible future developments and the impact that these will have on the type of research needed for the future.

Following a general introduction, this exciting volume includes details of metabolomics of model species including Arabidopsis and tomato. Further chapters provide in-depth coverage of abiotic stress, data integration, systems biology, genetics, genomics, chemometrics and biostatisitcs. Applications of plant metabolomics in food science, plant ecology and physiology are also comprehensively covered.

Biology of Plant Metabolomics provides cutting edge reviews of many major aspects of this new and exciting subject. It is an essential purchase for plant scientists, plant geneticists and physiologists. All libraries in universities and research establishments where biological sciences are studied and taught should have a copy of this Annual Plant Reviews volume on their shelves.
