Genomics Grand for Diversified Plant Secondary Metabolites

doi:10.3724/SP.J.1143.2011.10233

Abstract

Abstract:

Plants can generate an overwhelming variety of structurally diversified organic compounds called secondary metabolites. These compounds usually perform interesting biological activities and important functions in influencing interactions between plants and other organisms. They are also widely utilized as pharmaceuticals, insecticides, dyes, flavors and fragrances. Plant genome sequencing, transcriptome and metabolome analyses have provided huge amounts of data to explain the great diversity of secondary metabolites. This knowledge in turn will help us better understand their ecological role and is a creating novel tool for genetic engineering of plant secondary metabolism.

Key words: Plant secondary metabolites, Biosynthetic pathways, Genomics, Chemical diversity, Bioinformatics

CLC Number:

Q 946.8
